What i mean is, whats the highest amount of def achievable as assassin (since she has no def passive skills to buff it) so, yea, i know its up to gear/charms. But, how much would be that? 150k? 200k tops?

If you really want to overdo it and aren't worried about durability, an eth Natasha can easily hit 30k def on its own (as I had 29k on just a gothic plate, let alone full plate or ancient). all items Eth and ED with superior would be maximum in theory.

Do you have any suggested setup for Unholy melee Paladin? Your assistance would be very much appreciated

Are there any items with prevent monster heal?

Having trouble with Akkarat because he keeps getting healed. Is there a way for me to prevent this?

Sword of the White Void

but that's unreasonable (4998 str requirement) and a really rare drop.

Just get more damage to out DPS the regen. Open Wounds may help also.

whats the best place to farm high tier runes (in terror preferably)

Fauzt

any good up to date melee barb guides?

Does "+x% to Physical Damage" work more like ED or EWD when talking specifically about weapon damage? And does "+x% Damage to Demons/Undead" work the same way as "+x% to Physical Damage," but only on those specific monster types? Just want to verify how these two mods actually work.

they are both ewd
