Btw, crafted abandoned boots are better than wind runner RW - damage wise. The only thing that is good about that rw is the %LL and %IAS, but if your damage is high enough and you dont need the IAS, I'd suggest a craft cause you lose 200-300 damage on your wyrmshot and about 1k life if you use the RW instead of craft.

ye lategame all options end up being very similar, but the gem route gives you an extra 1.8k life.

avg dmg for each boots option (lategame with 40 highrolled charms): d2stats pics

• 10186 - windrunners (lose 2k hp, but gain 10ms, ll and ias)
• 10055 - tu heavy boots (str)
• 10047 - craft (usually a ms loss)
• 9958 - tu light plated boots (reanimate, ias)

but you might get different results because I opt for 22speeds on my wormhole charm to maintain 117fcr without sacrificing an armor slot (you can skip this in 1.8 due to the 30fcr enchant on amulet). maybe the extra dex cycle slots from wormhole pushes the craft slightly higher in dmg. but all in all, theyre all virtually identical in dmg output (sub 2-3% diff).

another piece i want to test is akarat's (ssu light plated boots) but theyre very rare and didnt get to test them yet. ill update the guide in the future for itemization order and to condense some of the text.

dmg too low to even beat TU's.

dmg too low to even beat TU's.

you tried?

boots are super rare, so i never found them.

but you dont need to try them ingame to know that 30 dmg and 25aa with a 3% 0.5wdm proc isnt enough to compete with the massive dmg other boots give you.

Hi guys, I dont understand how to make a 22speed charm with wormhole, first time I beat Lucion.
What I understand is that i must collect several cycles, cube them with corrupted wormhole because they are actually stacking ?

I you guys can explain a little bit further would really be appreciate !

yup, every cycle you cube on top of the wormhole stacks

so 2x 3% cycles = 6%

[Oripeaux]

Okay i got it, so 22speed means stacking 3 * 8% combat speed charm right ?
About +1 ama skill, is it worth to stack it since we are loosing stats ?
And is there a perfect corrupted wormhole for amazon ?


Another question about bow crafting :

When Wulf says that ed and max dmg roll together every 25 full shrines, its just a probability right ? I mean do i have to dump every shrine in that bow (like 25 full shrines), then try with intimidating and it will works 100% ? I mean I tried for now at least 15 full intimidating shrines, the max I had was 150 max dmg with 200% ed (for now i switched to pantheon full set, it seems better atm)

thx
