My d2 stats cant read the vitality factor. I have 3430 vitality, how much energy (vit) factor would you think I would need?

Cheers!

You need energy factor anyway, there is no vitality factor from items afaik. Your energy factor will use vitality instead of energy. Get as high as possible tbh, I read someone say you wanna have something like 700 which is rather tough to get.

Section added.

Gio wrote:Hi, would like the recommend:
-General-
Rare Rings and Amulets can now roll Energy Factor too (might wanna include a guide on it)
-Blood Thorns-
Adjudicator
-Early Game-
The Angiris Pike
Honorific Gloves
-Radiance-
Akarat's Trek
Crafted Gloves with 2 paladin skills and FSD is potentialy highest damage


I don't believe the orange text on Adjudicator weights out the fact it brings nothing else to the table. The Angiris Pike is just too heavy on the str for the early game, and too lacking for mid game. It desperately needs a -50% req mod slapped on it. Good idea with the Akarat's Trek, added to the Radiance setup

Updated the guide with new endgame setup for lemures.

What would you say about using a demon core MO on Dux Infernum?

Why do you recommend using Aerin/Heraldic Shield for crafting? Wouldn't a crown shield yield better potential defense results?

Because Crown Shield can only get 4 sockets.

Ahh, my bad. Sorry, then I got no clue. The attribute requirement can't be the problem, so Crown Shield is the best indeed.
