Phoebe, the Hammerzon

Current Samael is not easily doable with this spec because of the armor's damage cap bug. Otherwise, it might be possible, sure.

Im sorry bud you'll have to excuse me im still pretty green... Armor's Damage Cap Bug? Im not sure i know what this is.. ive heard nothing about it..

I also keep hearing people talk about a damage cap on hammers too which seems odd when ive seen for example.. Vesseldin hit over 100K top end DPS and other guides showing tooltips of well over 50K.. So im not quite sure how capping our damage is even possible. SOK is suppose to have something to do with it but ive not run into any damage cap.. ( that i know of anyway i did however expect a bit more noticeable gain from Battlemaiden which DOUBLED my sheet damage..) every upgrade i get gives me noticeable damage increases.

Im sure its not gonna be Barbarian Easy Mode but i do wonder if other classes have a configuration capable of doing that content. (Samael) I would like to thing every class has a possible configuration capable of the fight.. But maybe im mistaken. This build feels like it might be possible defensively with the right setup but its the damage im not sure about.

P.s. I am asking about vitality in jewels since crafted jewel can roll 10%ias, so you need 3 jewels compared to 2 runes.

crafted jewels can roll up to 15 ias. check the affixes page in the docs to see possible rolls

According to this page it can roll 10% :

This is attack speed. We're talking about Cast speed, no?

IAS = Increase attack speed.

Oh and also.. I got some Xis (Kabraxis) Runes farmed now since Battlemaiden makes it possible to speed farm Tenganze now

So whats the best use of them? If not for myself on our girl then what about a respec to Bow or Jav? Im wanting to make another build now but i kinda want to respec this first and i have quite a few Belladonna's Saved up at this point.

there's a bug with the skin of kabraxis's orange text acting as a multiplier instead of just adding 300% EWD with scepters. makes the zon hit damage cap and thus sometimes do no damage on some hits.

as for kabraxis runes, I dunno. I'm not gonna comment on other builds for this guide. You'd have to ask around in short questions thread or discord to see people's opinions. 4x Earth Rune (Windrunner) Boots can be really good for this build, but I don't see many xis rw's doing well enough to consider

Should we be using a different armor for now if we have very high sheet damage?

Cool choice. The difference with hammer is noticeable tbh.
Also that MF% works since I'm at that stage where I can stack tons of mf and still kill everything in p8.
So, your hammerzon is working really good.
Thanks bud

Kinda funny you mention that chest thats the one ive been using for Fauzt farming for the MF and to cap my Phys Res to 50%. Otherwise with SOK its 45%.

And the odd thing is the damage difference is almost non existent. SOK still has nice QOL too with Pagan Rights proc and everything else it gives. I thought it was kinda weird that other chest come so close damage wise. And ive heard something about the 300% mod on SOK being bugged but i didnt know it was casuing us to miss out on damage. Thats rather unfortunate but oh well.. Still have plenty to work with regardless.
