The Stormcaller

Hi, I have made Ornate crafted weapon and an On shield because I haven't found enough crystals and the right T6 War axe and Setzschild.

The weap gives +4 amazon skills and has light res and dmg modifiers. Would the Rainbowcleave and Setzschild be better or doesn't it matter that much? I am having trouble figuring out if it is necessary to go the distance and get those TU's.

Just farm hatred nihlathak and meph. Each run gives 5 tu's. Won't take long to get the crystals.

I have six crystals, just the blank items don't show up anywhere

(And I'm not going to start with a T1 or T2 item and waste crystals).

Was mostly asking if it's worth going through the trouble because the gear I have made myself is also working pretty well.

Socket runes in some throwing weapons, sell them, then gamble the stuff you need.

I don't think you 'get' why I was asking. Nevermind.

The gamblers can give you T6 weapon and shield just keep opening/closing them until the axe and shield appears. It's better/faster than looking for them in the ground, then you can make them to TU's with the recipe. That's what LH meant.

Check Zhiroo's comment for what I meant by my comment.

Otherwise, I would say no. You never have to strictly follow a guide. Guides are just guides. They aren't rules. Only thing is they're generally tested and all items considered and the ones listed are pretty much what the author felt was most beneficial.

The main advantage of TUs is that you can craft tier 2-3 versions of them early on and keep upgrading them easily with the uptier recipe. The base items to make the TUs are easy to gamble too, as long as you don't want a specific high tier. Just takes some time and a lot of clicking at the vendor.

If you're at the point where you already have an On rune then there's no point in getting a TU, unless the TU is specifically useful. At that point you should be preparing to switch to Sacred gear anyway.

That said... I would probably still gamble a T4-6 Setzschild and uptier it to T6 before using it for a RW. The high defense is really useful.

6 hours crafta 3 amulets. 3 allskill hailstorm spalldamage and 0 chance oil of lack ...... it is unreal .....

First, I apologize for my bad english.

I want to try this char (single player) and have a few questions.
- I got a very good roll of

Natasha's Legacy

and don't have plans to use it in any other of my chars, so how good it could be for this char to use with hailstorm?
- Since I can't have

The Creep

and doesn't have luck to get

(don't know if it's that good for this char) and can't find a good 1hand to pair with. Maybe a crafted one? What stat should I look for in this case? Or the staff is better than 1hand + Avatar?
- What do you think about

Bona Dea (Xis)

? The change in stats are good enough or it's better to keep the normal one for the MO space?
- After ~2 hour of rerolling a rare amulet, I can't get a good one, but I have

(+3). Since I want to use Hailstorm, is the Vizjerei's a good option? Or the hailstorm skill lvls from just Bona Dea isn't enough for good damage?
