Hi guys,

Returning after a long break to 1.1.3.

Am looking to start a char from scratch to farm up the early/mid charms. I play purely single player and am not a fan of too much skill switching.

What would you recommend in this patch? I used to have a fortress barb. Is that still viable?

I mostly enjoy farming chars and am wanting to make a new one but all came to my mind are spiral barb, unholy melee pal, nagi sin,.... I mean rangers havent been getting significant buffs, the best would be stampede barb which I have one already.

So can u guys who have experienced more builds/chars than I have this version suggest me some ranged/safe farming char? Preferably able for fauzt (but not xbow nec) with as little difficulty as possible. Pls list the gears and skills I should use.

Also how about scorpion sin? I think she is the most interesting and closest to 'farmer' but is a little too similar to stampede barb?


check the summoner necro or totem necro guides.. both seem to be really good farmer builds

i can say the summoner isnt having any problem with fautz..at all... dr strangebuff summoner necro in the guide section here..
yeah the title is a dr strangelove movie title homage LOL

Sorry for the bad language. Google translate.
2 act, sometimes the flame bursts out of the earth in all locations. Is it a monster or a script?

The only 2 monsters casting fire spells in A2 are pests (fire fountain on death - landmines in all directions which explodes after some time) in sewers, rocky waste, dry hills. And Daystars casts "Angel fire" (smth like balefire or pyroblast - "burning" flames releasing from beneath your feet) in Far oasis, Lost city, Viper temple.

If you want to make a fortress barb with death gaze in cooldown, yes.

Does +%Phys/Magic Damage affect any of the Sorceress melee skills (Wraithsword, Fusillade, Bladestorm, etc)?

actually I want a wdm ranged char, not a summoner, so that I can kill uber bosses. Also dont quite like casters as I have always been very bad at doing things to reach like 700% spell dmg even in the old MXLU days, never figure out how ppl do that so easily, now with the limited MO options I dont think I will ever play any caster char except maybe lightning sorc :lol:
summoners are good farmers I know, I in fact like to bring with me a few dozens of familars, however its almost impossible for them to do yshari, kab, astro,.... I'm consider making a bow druid, thanks for ur advice ;)
