Keeping scourge up does absolutely nothing since I would have to spam them constantly to keep few up. 2k life on them ain't enough to withstand anything

2k life? That's too low man. Can you post your gear? Also did you usually use DA (Divine Apparition)?. Summon Scourge => DA near the ball then tantrum (Vindicate if needed) => DA on other balls.

Early game gear listed by the guide with the exception of already having Ghar-habla-habla gloves and NOT having Hanabigami (56 crystals and counting~~). Out of basic charms I'm missing upped CFM (cause that thing is a bitch) and Silver seal of Ureh

Also I use DA quite aggressively but pretty much right after I port and get tantrums off, the scourge are already dead and I'm being pummeled

I must continue this crusade.

How much should one have approx. life on one's Scourges with early game gear? Cause mine have 2247 and the only thing I'm missing is upped CFM pretty much. Dunno what else to do with em except sacrifice like 20 skillpoints to make them take 2 hits instead of 1 in Unfathomed lands

Firstly check if you have the correct mystic orbs / socket fillers in every piece. Many times people have trouble when they decide to not follow my instructions and improvise.

If everything is in order I suggest before farming that you get yourself some charms - finish up the "tricky ubers" section (skip kabraxis for now). Also do yshari. Triune + 5 charm & +1 yshari with a good cb roll are quite important, vizjun is decent too.

Now you can actually farm anywhere you want. Without hellfire plate fauztinville & duncraig will be slightly sketchy - i.e. you have to go slow in the former and you might die now and then to psn bomb + auto attacks on the latter. Triune, k3k, tran ahulua levels are a piece of cake. As you can see in the early game video I'm already doing the uberlevels just with the early gear.

If you want to farm the easy levels, I suggest socketing lums in your non-runeword gear (apart from chest). If you wan't to farm duncraig (at which this build is amazing), but are dying too easily then you simply have to play better. Look in the video how I'm stutter stepping forward and back and approaching packs at a tangent. Never tank anything like a dummy in 1 spot, always be mobile.

If you want to run Nihlatak: lazy way is to get a RIP modifier on one of your TUs or equip a 1skill rare ring with the mod. Then the shamans wont be able to faerie ring the corpses of their minions. A better way of dealing is to simply notice when the thunderlings run up to you, blink behind them, find the shaman and kill him first. As for nihlatak summon some scourges to distract the mob with rathma's chosen or blink on his head and kill him before he can cast it.

Ty for the reply. i fallowed your breakpoints and try to have the right pierce of element but tran isint a piece of cake for me. Maybe im missiong something on the strategy or the gameplay.i should probably stack more run/walk speed

About nithalak, the hard thing is not to killl him, its to get there. like i said, the lightning and poison are get my life to 1 in 2 sec even tho i stacked PSR (i got 63% now)

Ill go try dunc see where i get ^^

You need to be capped on resists, which would be 80% if you have Azmodan's heart (which you should considering how easy of an uber it is)

Nope, you're able to survive with Tainted blood alone if you keep the scourge up

Question: Does the dark summoning on toraja actually work? i have been summoning for about 3 hours and I haven't gotten anything, this is also my 4th clear of the game and I am on single player if that makes a difference.
