yes ,you can no longer use it if it drops to zero . socket a jewel with "indestructible" affix in order to avoid that

yes , it goes quite nice if you want to try something new and interesting, it is capable of farming Dunc and Fauztinville , but not good enough for high tier labs . it deals around 20k damage in mid game . with dedicated gear it can go way past that . the itemisation goes somewhat similar to a lazy neutraldin. the skillplan is pretty much obious , with maxing wolves , MK and BH as sinergies , spirit guide and runemaster for some well needed defense , 1-pointer immortal and thundergod , 1-pointer wolf stance for some movement speed and %FHR. You can cast War Cry from left click . sadly ,War Cry no longer leeches , therefore Eagle stance can be a valid option if you want to avoid drinking heal pots too often and it also pairs well with the

boots for some free %DR

it's worth a shot imo (but you may want to turn the sound off, as all those cries can be annoying after some point :lol: )


What do you mean it doesnt leech? According to the toltip, it leeches 4% dmg per ancient blood base lvl.
If it is decent i might try it, because i absolutely despise summoner builds, and throw is kind of clunky, unless you have enough gear to clear with stampede, which does pretty bad dmg.
are you sure that you are playing the latest patch ? yes , it used to leech , and it was great when it did . look at the changelog from patch 1.2 https://www.median-xl.com/version/sigma-1-2-0.php
"WAR CRY:
No longer leeches life, may now be used on the left mouse button ....."

before 1.2 it had to be played stanceless , as you could only cast war cry from right click , but now you got eagle stance , as i wrote above

What happens to an Eth item if you do the 2 Arcane Crystals + Learning Potion recipe?

What about if you just uptier it with an Arcane Crystal?

Finally, dumb question, does an ethereal item disappear completely when it's durability reaches 0(if it doesn't, I could just do the above anyways)?

The recipe to create uniques works on ethereal items, but the output will be non-ethereal. You don’t gain anything doing it that way. Same goes with the upgrade. The cube recipes never spawn ethereal items. It is called an oil of enhancement btw

As far as I’m aware, ethereal items disappear when reaching 0 durability. Just put indestructible jewel so it doesn’t happen.

Thanks, that's good to know, I forgot about all that.

Now, I want to ask, has anyone tried Winter Avatar(because I have 2 kriss' and the helm for my barb)?

I can't seem to enter Harem Level 1 after I made the staff.. Jerhyn has walked out, I've talked to everyone, created the staff, talked to everyone again, and it still is saying "I can't." What am I missing here?

What does the quest logs say? Did you try remaking the game?

Isn't the cooldown supposed to be removed after a certain oskill level?

I played around with the TU swords dual wield on a Barb and it was actually half decent, but the cooldown was too annoying
