Short Questions Thread

You're thinking of Cave Snappers. I also played older versions but really can't remember. As of now, without excessive grinding you'll get to act 2 around level 20-ish, you should get near level 50 somewhere around act 5.

K3k is not a problem because it usually can be done much sooner than 80, and you should also have plenty of time for the binding of baal, too. If you happen to hit 90 before reaching the valley of snakes just go there without killing anything in the meantime, or killing the least amount of mobs. But again, this shouldn't be a problem.

EDIT: I forgot to say, this is on p1. If you happen to play single player and on p8 than you may have to be a bit more careful about this.

This is the gear I'm currently using on my xbow nec,are there any improvements I should make going into dest? Some runewords,possibly? All of the items are t6 uniques,except for jewelery and quiver,those are Athulua's Oracle and random rares. I'm especially clueless about the helmet,idk if there's anything good I can switch to at this point. I remember Marco having a detailed guide somewhere but I can't find it anymore,so I decided to ask here

(dmg is with burning veil buff btw)

This is right here in the guide section:

My werewolf's gear:
Weapon: Void RW in broad sword
Helm: Lo RW in dudu helm (also have coldhunger su wolf head. cannot decide which one to use)
Armor: Jitan's Armor
Belt: Truce plated belt
Gloves: facebreaker gloves
Boots: megalith boots
Shield: Judge's Sin shield
Jewelery:+3all skills+banish on strinking amu
1 assur's bane ring
+1skills ring

2%ll jewels

Prebuffs: quarak's, +12 to dudu skills staff for berry, saber of the stormsail, motw stuff, Unseelie lady reanimate BPR charm

FUll strength
Maxed:Werewolf, laek passive, life berry, tcd berry, FON
10 to harbinger

I need some suggestions here, about items and skillplan also. I was thinking to make "QOR" RW shield for -enemy res, cause with my current gear i dont have -100 to any element..
OR to make a Gehenna RW weapon and use coldhunger + teganze for mana on kill and replace jitan's with an erawan RW in sacred ancient armor for more defence and %dr..
My goal is to start farming Fautz faster and start building up some MF also..
Playing on SP XVc

If you want to farming fauzt faster, just get the natasha rw first. This is a cheap option and better than erawan. Also Teganze is your best amulet here from early game to end game, just MO with 60% regen mana and some stre. You have much items, don't you? If that, here is my suggestion:
- Weapon: You can use Lo rw on a flamrberge or broadsword with shield. It doesn't matter much. In SP your best weapon will be Carsomyr.
- Armor: Natasha rw (End game will be SBS)
- Helm: SSU Peacebringer (End game will be Gehenna)
- Glover: cheap option is firebark (End game will be Dtouch)
- Boot: Clawfeet. (End game will be Knight's Grace)
About ring: Earthrouser would be best with Treemor proc, CB, 10% stre, ed... MO this ring with 40%. The 2nd ring can be SOTNK or Assur's bane.

All socket would be Lum Rune. With runeword, 2%ll + 2% stre jewel would be great.

You seriously think that 6x Kabraxis Stone is a cheap option? O.o It takes far more time than finding most of SUs or SSus. Might be indeed cheaper than SBS but ain't cheap at all imo.

Now to my question:
Ethernal Ghosts in the Void seem somewhat broken. They burn my HP very fast and swap resistances when i leave to the town. However with my Kraken Stance Stormblast Barbarian with about 20-50k dps (remember Stormblast hits 25 times!) I'm barely able to hurt Ghost no matter their resistances. Even if it has only Poison/Physical and I'm doing full rainbow damage + 100% lightning or cold conversion its HP barely goes down. AR doesn't matter as I have Natasha's Legacy and thus ITD. I'm using SU Valaska, unfortunately no Labrys yet for a double Stormblast but still looking. I have about -80% all enemy resists. Could be better but I'm sure this 20% isnt such a big deal to make me kill one ghost for such a long time.

Does it have some kind of avoid? Or maybe they are supposed to be so tough? Usually I can kill them 1on1 with my Barb by just staying next to him and smashing him with all I have but if Darkspawns are near there is no way I could beat even one of them. It takes about a minute per ghost! Sometimes my damage just stops and for 20 seconds i can do nothing at all even though as I said I have full rainbow dps.

BTW: if you are curious about the gear it is:

1. Weapon: Dreadarc, Shamanka for Buff
2. Armour: Natasha Legacy, Hammerfist gloves, crafted Barb Helm with +2 all skills and +28 Kraken Stance, Boots and Belt from Marco Tribute Set (couldn't find anything better yet and I'm bored of TU Heavy belt)
3. Amulet with +3 all skills, +30-60 damage, 5% chance of doom, Asurs Bane and Ring with -% enemy res and +1 all skills
Sockets with runes of course.

Hmmm..
When you say Natasha, u mean Natasha's Lagacy RW?? This one needs 6 Kab runes. 1 kab rune needs me to find 6 elemental stones+6 skulls. This will need me to farm sewers for eternity i think (i dont feel like this is a cheap option

). Im not used to farm this place also.. I'd like some info about farming sewers with my dudu if possible.
Don't have the SSU helm.. This dudu was a fresh start, so i have just basic items. That's why i want to start increasing my MF..
Thnx for the suggestions!!

Have you checked your attack rating? Maybe it's too low to give a reliable hit and if the ghosts have avoid on top it could explain your issue. It could be that they are tagged as "boss" mobs and hence ITD doesn't work (like some enemies in the yshari sanctum).

Well, that could be the case. If ITD ain't working I'm preety much screwed as I have about ~20% chance to hit them.

No. Wolf is awesome sewer farming char and you should feel this . Average 1 sewer you will get 1 sk1 so maybe around 50 runs for Natasha's Legacy rw. I said cheap option for faster farming Fauzt

.

Farming sewer with wolf doesn't takes much expensive gear: Lo weapon (if not, use Wyand's Fevor armor instead for mana), Lo rw helm, JItan TU armor, deadfall... If you don't have SSU Hawk Helm, just use Lo rw helm instead. Also you can farm Duncraig with this cheap gear.

About skills: you should put 1 point for Eflin Weapon (%cb) and Pagan Rites (IMO this skill is fcking awesome). Imagine you take hit from barrier, use Pagan Rites to restore full health then transform to Wolf again, no pots please
