[Waldamer]

Hello and well done on the guide, it has alot of information and with some small objections that alot of other people pointed out its overall very informative for begginers, here is however my take on the gearing side with a more focus put onto MF rather than Min/Maxing the most optimal gear

Reroll until +4 All Skills(another side note is to look for 40+ MM while for an Amazon that roll doesn't matter, if you ever decide to try out the popular nowdays Neutraldin he cares about the ranks for it, up to you if you wanna chase that) ->
Enchanted shrine craft Sacred War Scepter with 4+ Amazon Skills & 40% + Magic Spell Damage or 4+ Amazon Skills, 20% + Magic Spell Damage and 50+ EF both of these will be better than Oris

Path (Xis)
- This can be a quite good option for late game, however I wouldn't reccommend it mostly because of how expensive/hard it is to roll it with +8 Amazon Skills, however its worth mentioning that it does offer more DMG with a SoV Build than a decently rolled Craft(my is +4 Ama skills and 50 % Spell Damage atm)

1+ Amazon Skills & 25%+ Magic Spell Damage, even a low rolled one will give you a hefty boost to your dmg compared to the other two, alternatively you can stick with WoF for more MF->
Earie Crafted with Enchanted Bless Setzshield - Look for EF, Magic Spell DMG and 5 Amazon Skills potentialy you can get Blood Fury oSkill which does give you another source of on demand DMG boost, if you can however manage the downside of having -15 % Speed, or you can lower the base of the shield, altough for Online play, it might be far easier to buy a well rolled Witch Drum or even The Collector

This helm is just godly, sell your kidney if you have to but GET THIS, the 33 % DPS which the guide states is honestly an understatement, 33 % DPS would be single target, however the Clear Speed is doubled, I even dare to say trippled, honestly I tried farming K3K with nothing but this helm and it was enought to do it, its that good.

for a little bit of more UMPF on your dmg

Personaly I went with Pax Mystica mostly because its far more reliable to jump over the walls into a pack of monsters over Jitan's Gate, remember your a Glass Cannon so you will die quite easily, the Blink ability makes it abit more managable because of the Stun it provides arround you, thus you can throw few MM and either kill everything arround you or kill most of them to then finish them off afterwards

Honestly here is where you didn't do a very good job since you went the lazy route and just listed what you have, appolagies but it quite frankly thats how it feels(I am not trying to be a douche here, thats just my criticism), reason why I think that way is because you didn't even mention some incredibly easy to get Rings and Amulets for the lower levels which will help you even in the mid game, cause the ones you pointed out aren't exactly as easy to get as those lower level ones.

Rings:

Ring of Regha - Pretty easy to get(2x Arcane Crystals + Oil of Enhancement + Any Ring) and has tons of MO space to costumize to your own free will and pretty easy to be luckied for another 5 % Spell Damage
Rares with 1 All Skills and/or 10%+ Magic Spell Damage and/or MF (obviosly the more of these you get the better even going towards the End Game)
Other possible options to look for/test out:

Jewels/Gems:
If your going the Paragon route:

- Shield: Main way to fix your resistances if not P. Turquise
- Weapon: P. Ruby or P. Diamond - One is more susstain, the other is more DMG
- Armor: Fill up Resistances if you still need them then P.Topaz

If your going the Spirit of Vengeance route then go for a mix between Tir Crafted Jewels(MF) and Zod Crafted Jewels(Spell Damage)
Stats to look for on Jewels(in order of priority):

- 2 to 4 % Magical Spell Damage
- FCR/FHR(if you still need some)
- 5-15 % MF
- 30+ Life
- Stats

Conclusion:
If you decide to go the MF route its quite a fast and capable Duncraig and Fautzville farmer(haven't realy spent much time in other zones to confirm). however it has a steep learning curve since its not exactly braindead just see and kill stuff, your a glass cannon so the most gentle of breezes can kill you so you have to be aware to not get surrounded. Now when stacking MF you sacrifice damage and clear speed thats basicaly how it is for almost every build in Vanilla D2 and in MXL, how much damage will you sacrifice in favor of MF is entirely up to you and your current gear, play arround mix and match stuff.

My Current Stats with all charms up to 125(curently 126, I have all the rest of the charms transfered from another character):
Damage: 7-8k Unbuffed (15-18k Buffed with SoV)
Health: 20,3k HP
MF: 518 %

Side Note: I basicaly copied the author Gear section and edited it to add in the MF options I use/think will be good. Constructive Criticism is always welcomed and if the author has objections about me Copy/Pasting his creation I will delete it if needed or completely reedit it, up to him for that All credits for it go to him.

Few things that I plan to play arround with in the future:

- Earie Craft with Enchanted Bless or vice versa or simply pure Earie craft(I will invoke some pure Single player magic for testing before attempting it for real, sue me if you want, its my game I will play it however I want to play it). Idea here is to focus more on Energy with EF with some Spell Damage, basicaly mix and match those 3 stats to see what fares better in Mid/End Game gear - Did some testing on this subject here are the results:

Body Armor - Huge NO. For some reason Body Armour CAN NOT roll Magic Spell Damage or raw Spell Damage without Enchanted Shrine, I did about 300 Crafts to make sure and only Spell Damage I was getting was Cold/Fire/Lightning/Poison and thats all, check the decumentation and even there its not listed
Shield - Surprisingly an Earie Crafted Shield with Enchanted Blessing does have quite a big potential inbetween

, having Blood Fury oSkill is possible here so thats a potential for another active buff to your dmg
Gloves - This is surprisingly superior mid/late game than Enchanted counter part, even having Enchanted Craft with Earie or vice versa given me less results on having pure Earie crafted Gloves
Sceptre - Another huge NO. Reason for this is that you can get half the ammount of Spell dmg with Earie Crafts than you can with Enchanted Shrine, don't wanna go into details atm but after close to 500 crafts I never seen more than 30 Spell Damage of any kind so, just stick with Enchanted Bless and Craft
- Attempt to make the build with abit more survivability altough that might be a lost cause, simply because in nature the build(and most Amazon Builds) is basicaly a glass cannon so the dmg might be too low for not much tankiness.
Natasha's Legacy (Xis)
for example is one item I plan to play arround with aswell as some other items and maybe even Max Block
- Trying out
Edda (Xis)
as a possible item to use in the build. Reason for this is that Witch Drum has a huge margin of rolls so getting a decent one can be rather hard especialy if your SSF and The Collector for those cases isn't exactly the easiest item to find in the game, on that note might also try out using a Stave to see how that compares too, cause why not. - Tried it out and its complete waste of resources so don't bother with it
- Experiment with a few oSkills and maybe even try out the Fire portion of the Bloodzon(altough that might be a guide on its own depending how it fares compared to this)

Paragon vs Spirit of Vengeance

Since apperently this is a hot topic which could be avoided with abit of explantion by the creator of the guide(again not trying to nit pick or trying to be a douche, I'm just giving my criticism) in the skill section here is my opinion on it:
Spirit of Vengeance is by far the superior option no doubt about that, however Paragon offers you an easy way to progress based on the fact how easy is to get simple Perfect Gems compared to how easy it is to get Spell DMG + Life jewels with somewhat decent stats, not to mention that while leveling and progressing if you chose it as a new character you wont have access to stuff so you have to spend time farming for it, this is where Paragon shines over Spirit of Vengeance.
Another point to make for Paragon over SoV is that if you don't have 400 Signets each point of Energy is precious and the gap between having extra % Energy vs having % Spell damage is close than when you have 1,5k+ Energy for example.
Third point for Paragon over SoV is that your already incredibly squishy and Paragon is a purely defensive Skill, while yes you do have amazing HP % Modifiers remembe that you have to have some flat life to modify so going with Jewels that don't have Flat Life on them just because it offers you far more damage than Paragon does and ending up with 7k HP pool ... well like WoW Players say "Dead DPS does 0 DPS".

To sum it up, if you have materials and patience to craft +2 Spell damage and 30+ Life jewels then by all means go for Spirit of Vengeance however if you don't then go with Paragon, noone is arguing the raw power of SoV, however you will be surprised how many people end up with 6-7k HP and constantly wating for respawn times with their amazing DMG output.

A very small note on that is that for something like Kabraxis I wouldn't use SoV because of her Reanimates, altough I never realy bothered to try a RIP modifier and see how that goes, so that might me beeing dumb A whole other topic is that for the Lock timers not all Ubers have a reliable source of Corpses for you to summon SoV.

Lastly I would like to thank the author of the guide for creating it and this entire post is not aimed to insult his work or time put into it, instead its aimed to improving it so the majority of new players which the guide is aimed towards to benefit from diff people's points of view on it. So instead of people trying to flame the author how bad he is and how superior they are to him, they could easily just give their criticism and opinion on the subject so he and all of us can maybe educate ourselves better and work for the common good, on that topic if my views are wrong or in any way insulting towards the author I am open to criticism or even deleting my post entirely.

Your summary is spot on. That is why it isn´t "recommended". People who are in need of guidance for a build rarely have the option, knowledge or ability to craft +4% spell dmg + life jewels. With that in mind, Paragon is the recommendation. So you pretty much nailed that summary.

As for Kabraxis and SoV, that is another reason I did not recommend it. Plenty of ubers, like teganze for instance, will not allow you to summon another spirit if you die or if the spirit gets stuck too far away from you and despawns; so it becomes more of a hassle than an advantage, not to mention the heals if you are not using RIP. You are in need of no damage anyway considering how much you do innately. So sacrificing some of the extra dmg for more HP and Mana via Topazes & Paragon is the option to go for especially as a beginner imo.

Btw, thanks a lot for being so civil and encouraging. I will link your post as well below the guide so that others can read your configuration and perhaps get some ideas from it too. As for me, I did run MF with SoV hybrid at ~300 MF and found that to be enough. Not sure how 500%+ is for you but I suspect that you sacrificed lots of dmg and hp to get it. So I´m wondering, did it work out well for you in general or do you feel squishy / lacking dmg?

[TweakedFetus]

I have been playing this build for a couple weeks casually now, and I absolutely love it. I have just hit 12-15k damage on the character sheet, and I must say everything has been pretty easy so far. Paragon during progression was awesome, when I switched to SoV I noticed the damage boost I needed for bosses. I followed the guide and used jewels from the comments, seriously easy to understand.

I am a pretty new player and this is my first character, this guide has me literally hooked.

For engame efficiency, I was wondering exactly how much of each stat I would need before I can move onto stacking another stat. For example, stack 500 energy points, 300 energy factor, 200% magic/physical damage...etc. Also exactly what stats should be on my jewels?

If these two things were added to the guide with the breakpoints, any new player would be completely satisfied from start to endgame with this guide.

Again, thank you so much. I have been having so much fun with this build.

I am also using SoV with physical resistance capped and some defense stacked. There are various ways to achieve 50% DR but cheapest and a very effective setup is

you can eerie craft a Setzschild with 5 amazon skill + Blood Fury oskill + ~200ED% + ~110LaeK/ MF/ attributes etc. Add to that two shrine bonuses from crafting and blessing and 6 more jewels you can socket and it's almost as good as Collector but with a 15% MS penalty.

So I´m wondering, did it work out well for you in general or do you feel squishy / lacking dmg?

Honestly I didn't spend much time crafting or perfecting jewels or farming that much, before that I was at about 150 MF so I spent prob a couple of hours with 500+ MF, might be abit overkill but dmg wise in Fauztville atm its doing pretty well, I do have non MF Gear I swap to when doing Ubers but dmg wise atm no issues. There is still lots of space to improve in terms of jewels because I have only 1 +3 Spell dmg jewel rest are all +2, thats just me beeing lazy rather than not having the resources to craft better so only future will tell how pumped up will I get

As far as the squishyness... honestly considering I've been playing Pouncezon, Paladin and Barbarian till now.. well that build will always be squishy, thats just how in general half the Amazon builds are so yes for me personaly it will almost always feel on the squishy side and I love it that way

Thats a pretty interesting idea to fill up the gap, will give it a try today and put my feedback on it, however the Blood Fury oSkill for me is sort of lackluster and doesn't offer that much in return. As for the DR options, honestly this feels like your gimping quite a hefty ammount of DMG to achieve that and so far runing with 16 % DR if I do get surrounded I will die or when port over a wall in Duncraig so idk if its worth it to strickly aim for 50% DR except for maybe some ubers

That makes me curious myself too, early game going full Energy seems to be the way to go due to mana issues, however right now for me I am noticing that Energy doesn't give me that much boost so a more direct focus on EF over the other too can be an option too, I will be playing arround with a few gear options the next few days so will post my feedback

I don't lose that much DPS maybe 10% but I already one shot enemies with 23k average MM damage with bloodfury. The extra survivability lets me blink much more aggresively and take more enemies at once so I end up clearing faster.

[Manu300000]

Im playing this char since sigma release, wanna share my way to play it;
Using ssu phoenix shield - spells cost life instead of mana <<----------- this is awesome. Im constantly running the bloodlust buff with it.
And whenever im in trouble i just use antimass and im fine again. (some leak reduce this lifecost cause you kill the whole screen with 2-3 casts) Also i only have 1 point in wild and free, getting 50% slow from def harmony. Maxing spellbind -> 1 point in fire elementals (each elemental 24k life)

With this setup i can run through fauzt like crazy. And i never have to worry about dying. Im getting 25% dr and 20 k life.

What level is your antimass and how much mana% does it convert with what cooldown?

[Manu300000]

What level is your antimass and how much mana% does it convert with what cooldown?

Its lvl 33 and it restores 66% of your current mana ~ 10k on full mana pool. Cd is 4,5 seconds
Running atm with only 30 life after each kill. But i have zero problems with it.

atm that is an upgrade to my poorly rolled Witch Drum, so that has potential more than

The third thing is that having Earie Crafted Gloves with an Earie Blessing is better than getting pure Enchanted ones, thats for late game when you start having alot of Energy.
