I checked the link u provided and other sources before. But as a completly new player to the median mod its very helpfull to get input from experienced players about what conclusions to be drawn out of calculators and mechanic informations.
Im having troubles with the concept of "needing pierce", since u can increase it with runes and also mythical. I was playing with 150% default and myth for 170, but i found it very hard to dodge stuff, cast meatshields, run, do dps AND have myth consistently up on most ubers. So i guess going default 170% is the way to go...
so for lab you think spirit walker with manareq on gear to get decent physres is more valuable then the deff from crafted ones?
im currently @ 37 physres with at trophy and megalith.
well, a regular guide - even if it has a section called endgame gear - is not necessarily written by people that have done all content with this build.
Me for example - I have never killed Laz/Phoboss/anom/Samael/Deimoss ever and never cleared something higher than T12 , but I can tell you that for those bosses/areas you have to make compromises and could probably write a guide on it's own.
And yeah, phys res is extremely helpful in Labs, as well as high Defense and from T11 + on or even earlier max res >= 86 for at least cold fire light and a good amount of HP and from T14 on you have to overcap your res too because a 100 res penalty kicks in in that Tier.
So a pretty good combo for looking at labs wold be a gg rolled

As a caster you either have to have godly playing skills paired with good damage or you have to cripple your gear in terms of damage for better surv.
