Charms and Stormlord will be enough. That spear is for later, around 115-120 when you have a good amount of stats. But if you want to wear it early, -requirement jewels are your friends.

Could be your graphics settings. I'm using Glide, which tends to produce more vibrant colors than D3D.

Glide works on both fullscreen and window mode.

I love the way glide looks but It’s hard to tell the difference between rares and unique

Hi OP,
Great reading guide - thank you.
Presently I am struggling to pick up some of the 120 ubers even at level 129. Is my gear still too low and should i grind it out to get my 400 sigs ? (not armoury link below)
Problem now is ive run out of ornate shrines so still need to farm (mostly in Duncraig and K3BA) in order to improve gear before i can get the rest of the 120 ubers and move on to higher lvl farm areas to get SU/SSU drops ?.
Specifically i think I need another increase max level charm to go to lvl 27 slayers and then get 3 shots on mindflay, with that make alot of difference ?
I am still running scourges and euphoria build, i have 295% dmg and 102% pierce without Euphoria on so not bad, not perfect.

On first glance it looks like you need better jewels in your gear. Seems like you have low EF so try and craft jewels that add enery+EF+%light dmg

I can't see what's in the sockets but they don't seem to be zod jewels, at least not all of them. So that's one area that can be improved. The EF and lsd on the jewels make a big difference. Check your factor cap on the 2nd page of d2stats. Seems like you could use an eerie craft. There are some odd choices of MOs like poison resist on ring and FBR on shield (you don't need these btw).
What's your sheet damage of Mind Flay and Slayer? Getting the Jday upgrade is big. You can do Kab, Astro, Valthek charms for the nice dmg boost. Depending on your dps, you can try upgrading your Black Road charm and clear Fauzt or do Bremm. Bremm charm will get you that last Mind Flay beam for better dps.
Btw, if you need shrines, cows in patch 1.5 yield a lot more shrines/hr.

OK thanks, alot, I hadnt really understood the EF equation, so had mostly concentrated on Zod craft jewels with high lighting dge (4%) and magic damage bonuses. I have on Erie craft / blessed boots from memory as i was draining Mana too quick, and will now recraft these to ornate blessed when i get some more shrines...
I am sitting at approx 20% energy cap at present and damage output once buffed is @ 6200 to 7500 approx
