need uhc help or a better build or idk

[Hells_Lord]

Setting your goals for a ring that high is not your priority. It's already a decent ring for now anyways. Don't expect perfection every time with minimal fractions of a probability from RNG.

MO'ing your armor does not affect uptiering if you do the proper recipe (Arcane Crystal + rune + item) will uptier it to the next level and reroll the stats to match the higher tier, thus removing any MO's, allowing you to uptier it safely.

Ahhh i did not know that that makes me actually think about farming hatred for a few hours to get all the uniques i need to upgrade everything.

From start,

Rings +1 to all skills, LSD AND ELR SUPERNOVA ON KILL

Itemisation Try to get - 100 Lightning Resistance Enemy the rest go to Lightning Spell Damage That is it
Jewel -> +5 or 6% to lightning spell damage (here a recipe Jewel Rare (Must have lvl 41 and more) + Zod + Shard + Oil of Craft (you need to have 350 CRAFTING POINTS)

The rest for honorific items GO TO PERFECT GEMS RESISTANCE WILL BOOST YOUR RESISTANCES.

Yep That is it for middle game

I will look into this though atm I have to work on getting the gear before i can even fully spec.

EDIT i cant use on kill/hit procs on my computer i will crash myself.

Oh for shrines you need to look Ornate Shrine

Make 350 % ED for an armor IMPORTANT then Put 6xJah Rune in

You can to get over 11 or 14 k defence for a single armour!

I will look into this also I have never used or even touched shrines so I will keep my eyes out for that one.

Oh! I almost forgot about Blessing Shrines!!!!!!!!!!

Here a recipe for Blessed Shrine : Arcane Crystal + Craft Items + Ornate Shrine = Might add extra bonus for LSD or ELR or Penalty Mana That is very useful!

Any question for this ?

Well I will have to look up how to make a crafted item and where to find ornate shrines but i will check anywhere i may be at for them only thing i have a question on is end game builds but that can wait until im at end game.

[TomKatz03]

Yep! I am glad that helps you!

Spend all points stats in Energy that mind flay makes more damage
But Invest a bit point strength if needed but if not do not invest in!

[Hells_Lord]

my only problem/concern with your way of doing the build is on hit/kill procs 512mb of ram with a 1.7ghz single core processor can only handle so much and lightning nova is over that limit.

Well, You just remove supernova then

[Hells_Lord]

so basically another rare ring like i already have

[TomKatz03]

Yep That is good rare ring you keep that for end game but you need another a ring similiar this

[Hells_Lord]

ouch that took hours of rolling with oils i need to fix my bot for rolling before i do that again.

[TomKatz03]

About 50 to 200 oil of renewals

[Hells_Lord]

more like it took 20+ inventories full

WARNING wall of text incoming

step 1: find ornate shrines
step 2: find sacred bases
step 3:????
step4: profit

but in all reality if you cant succeed with UHC i dont know what to say it is probably one of the most overpowered starter builds in the game atm.. now a few gear suggestions for extremely cheap setups literally anyone should be able to farm this gear incredibly easily. if you just upgrade your tiered uniques you can do all the easy charms no problem then its up to farming terror fauzt for shrines and bases.

for rolling crafted gear its a good habit to look at docs prefix suffix list to see the possibilities for rolling gear http://docs.median-xl.com/MXLU_vXVI_Doc_v2.96/grig/prefix_suffix.html

-elr= minus enemy lightning resist
lsd- lightning spell damage

helm t6 blackguard helm is fine and you can keep that for now til you find a sacred pally helm then try to craft one with +skills -elr +lsd
boots honorific with resists til your capped str to wear your gear and then the rest with -elr +lsd replace these with zomg ornate crafted boots asap alternatively ath RW boots are pretty ok for casters they give + skills and decent defense and some sexy dr and stats. either are good options but endgame craft will always win out. if you dont know what a zomg craft is look it up in docs> cube recipes
belt aerin orbiter replace with craft when you get a good roll
rings rares: perfect rings have ideally +1 skills good -elr +lsd rolls you can settle for +1 skills and -elr or lsd for now
amulet rare: perfect amulet would have +3 skills before lucky upgrade and -elr +lsd rolls you can settle for +1 skills and at least -elr or lsd for now
armorqueen of glass > when you get a light plate or decent low str req base id try to ornate craft an armor with + skills and enhanced defense roll and either -elr or lsd
weapon t6 grand scepter is fine til you find a sacred war scepter then craft + skills -elr lsd "noticing a pattern here"
shield i like sangreal LO shield with zod crafted jewels when you have blessed life and decent damage reduction and life i usually swap to a sacred pally ornate crafted shield goes without saying but + skills -elr lsd
gloves kali PUL rw with either zod crafted jewels or fhr jewels to hit breakpoints mo with res or w/e u need to hit breakpoints use the speedcalc learn it love it

for the crafted gear be realistic when trying to get the rolls i listed the ideal rolls in most cases but realistically its hard to get +skills a good lsd roll and a good -elr roll on a sceptre when starting off maybe settle for just 2 of these rolls then upgrade incrimentally. additionally you dont HAVE to use ornate to craft when your poor its just the way to make the bis stuff. when your starting just use whatever random shrine you found it will still be able to roll -elr and lsd it just wont give you the added benefits of the shrine. shrine crafting still gives you the double mo and the bless so its worth it IMO.

use common sense when moing gear since you arent attempting heroics just yet prioritize getting at least -100 elr on gear and as much lsd as you can high defense pieces such as your armor and possibly shield should be moed with enhanced defense orbs to 350% cap. socket p rubies in your weapon for laek or if you feel tanky enough go for p diamonds for more damage. with a full set of crafted gear when you DO get to heroics it should be extremely easy to reach -200 elr so you can break heroic shields very easily. this makes UHC one of the top builds currently for doing a lot of heroic bosses like astrogha belial brachy etc... DONT FORGET TO BLESS YOUR CRAFTS WITH ORNATE SHRINES

for other socket fillers if im using crafted gear i just use ort runes for more damage if im using rw i usually craft myself fhr jewels since superbeast has hit recovery issues. do whatever you think would benefit you more. you need to react and change gear accordingly

these are runewords that you can use if you feel like you are squishy and need more survival change them out as you see fit these are great choices for nearly any build in the game that you can use to fill holes in gear while you are still poor. only use these if you feel like you lack survival since this will gimp your damage. think of it as a flexible tool to apply to patch up holes with your build

chest: erawan nih: more dr use before you have 50% dr from blessed life or dragonheart Kra: more life
belt: vith :dr stats decent belt
boots: ath fhr/dr/stats

for sacred gear generally imperius set will beat out most other su so dont even really worry about trying to find godly su. well crafted gear is much better than imperius anyways and learning the prefixes and suffixes and how to properly utilize crafts will server you very well in median xl

skills:
smax mindflay
20 pt slayer
max stormlord
1 pt in all the light influence
max tainted blood
1 pt in divine apparition
