Celestia's Ribbon is nice. Very nice even. For a dex build, Hunter boots are pretty horrible. A tad bit better than Megalith since it gives vitality. Concerning Lilith's shield, it's basically a choice between higher damage ir the sweet dex% boost. If I end up dumping Dragonfire Oil, I'll give this one a try. Which I should do since enemies start to have more resistances.
What about
The Trickster
Celestial Orchard
(Necromancer Malice Set)
? Of course, it's simply horrible when it comes to offensive stats. But peeking at that 1% higher block chance and physical resist... If you only want defensive stats, this one is the way to go. It's hard to not use Hellspeak though.The Trickster

Thats pure garbage. If you want phys resist, and more base block, "just" craft an abandoned shield, it will be lightyears better than that.

Base block chance on non-class specific shields for necromancer is 1 though. If you increase it by 1, it's still only 2 and not 3, like on Trickster. Plus, the physical resist can vary from 1-10, so you need to burn through a lot of shrines to get the 1% additional base block chance and 10% physical resist. But if you craft a class specific shield, which would allow 3% base block chance, you can't roll physical resist. Again, if you only want defensive stats, the trickster is the best option.

But you can get 2% base block and 10% phys res, and up to 500 life on non-class specific shields. This is in addition to abandoned bonuses. Class specific shields have 1% bonus base block chance, thats why they can only roll 1%.
ok here is an issue... i dont know how many players has lived this before...
my situation ...
my wife and i are playing median XL since the start of this ladder... we almost always play all games together.
she has here computer and i have mine...
we like to play Median but we are starting to fin it hard to have fun because of the multilogging problem.
first i must say that for me multi logging is one player logging mutliples accounts at once... but for medium it seems that multiples players on separate accounts cant play on each there computers...
we have been band for the first time the 25/7/20 for multiples ...
Just as a not the rules says = Multilogging is allowed only for muling purposes *, up to two accounts logged in.
with different d2 CD keys 2 computers 2 players it is also seen as multiples loging wich is not mention...
so we have first been told that in same game both needs to be in town... or both out of town at the same time... and to never use signates in town because it counted as lvling in town...
so even if its a dam head ack ... we did just that...
exemple yesterday i use my set items and made 250 signate fore my wife and left the game so she could use them...
but even after respecting this lame game restriction i end up band for a second time...
Today Ben conferme me even if your not in the same game you need to be in town when she is and out of town when she is...
Explaine me how do you expect game play in 2 different games in 2 different rooms with 2 different players doing 2 different things to manage that?...
My boys ask me to play median i told him he could not because only mom and dad get ban for playing normaly how would that end up with mom dad and one of my 4 kids playing at the same time...
i find this rediculus that this awsome version of d2 become imposible to play normaly when you are more then one person in one house that wants to play it...
i could film my self and my wife or take pictures... but even so... it becomes impossible to play with restriction like this...
are the creators or moderators realising how painfull it is...
Even when you try to follow the town restriction and signate restriction you get ban...
what can we do or be done? ... we dont want to stop the game but we like to play together and dont want to take turn on how is going to play between X hour and X hour...
is the creators intend to make this game familly frendly or just dont care about family playing together this game.?
What should we expect ? that one day we cant play any more on median because we were definitively ban for playing together?...

You could try playing via LAN. Or if that's too complicated to set up (due to needing the required hardware) you could try it using hamachi or other free to use programs that allow you to play LAN via internet. At least that way you can play together. You won't be able to trade or interact with other players though.
