Crystal swords tend to get spell damage, while long sword does not, and the difference in gotten values is dramatic.

Is there specific bases that is better to use to get spell damage ?


That's why those god damned ghost phoenix owned me...now I know, thank you!

I have another question: With gladiator dominance giving 7% block chance, do you guys think it would be worth it investing in a high dexterity wolf stance barbarian? I can't remember, do other classes like amazon gain dmg from dexterity or is it the same thing basically? Also, can you block spells?

Thank you!

in dunc what damage types do the enemies' attacks have?
i once heard that the souls deal elemental damage according to their immunity. is this true, and what other information is there about their damage (how much, what differences in physical dmg depending on enemy, %dr effectiveness, max dr effectiveness, enemy res pierce, etc)?

How much resist pierce we need for all regular monster ( if they aren't immune ) and for boss such as qsin , tsin , astro , xazar blahh... blahh ...? ( On Des plz )


Hi there


According to the patch notes, all regular monsters on destruction (including elites and Uberquest monsters) have 35% fire/cold/lightning and 20% poison resists. So -135% / -120% should be the max for those. For bosses it says 50-70% f/c/l, 40-100% poison. So you might wanna aim for around -170%?

Jewelcrafting works as before, except you don't need crafting points. It's in the docs (under cube recipes). Basically Jewel + Arcane Shard + Oil of Craft + Rune. Make sure to only use jewels of ilvl 71+ to get 4 affixes guaranteed.

Whether you gain damage from dexterity depends on the weapon you're using, irrespective of the class (it will say Current Dexterity Damage Bonus xxx%).

Is there a way to shift/control click things between your stash and inventory? I am playing on single player and am trying to keep track of the many runes I have and it is getting SO frustrating! Path of Diablo has this feature so it is possible. Thanks!

Generally speaking it makes no sense to mule runes. Whenever you need them you do one fauzt run and get about 100.

Does Nightwalker Necromancer passive give Avoid to Oskill totems? Like Dead wall, Devil's fang, Elemental, Exploding, Fear bomb or Mana tide totem?

And if you do, you just need a few high level ones, since you can downgrade them by cubing.

Have 270% fire resist, how much do I need ?

What does it say on your character stats panel in game? You might need more max res.



have 90% fire resitance , stacked at 270%, so how much do I need ? 350 ? 450 ?

iam pretty sure the pounce does some physical dmg from him, so get some dam reduce aswell, but when you give him some edyrems or minions to jump around, you have like 3 seconds or more to purify him, then just hit your attack once a time and he should go down very fast, best is to get some range vs him and summon some edyrems, you can also get some flat dam reduce on gear and make one gear piece with stone shrine craft and magic orb it with fire resistance and perfect bloodstones, when getting the charm earlie, later on it shouldnt be a problem anyway
rws with dr% are ath boots, vith belt, nih armour, or tu6 splint mail
