Pouncezon

hey, stealth. i'm having trouble getting my pouncezon to be able to farm duncraig.

these are my stats:

do i need more defense or something?

farm more sigs

i ate 500 alrdy

it looks like you had to waste a lot of stats on str, you should use -req jewels to make sure you can spec as much as possible into dex imo

Yes, get full dex stats is possible and -100% enemy poison resists as well. Also you have to get at least 100% Life Leech (at least 80% if you're using

Flame

). The matter is that Duncraig is farmable with less defence and less LL but it won't be instagib fest or smth whcih means you have to get some perfect charms like

-50 Defense
+(21 to 25) to all Attributes

etc.

should i try for more defense, too?

Defence is fine, but could be better, ofc. Iirc it's around 10-12% ctbh by Slain Souls.

k. thx stealth, gekko. will try for those stats

Hmm, your gear seems very decent. I haven't played pouncezon for a very long time, but I doubt full Celestia Set can be better than your current gear. I can only suggest you not rushing/pouncing into big packs in Dunc and check again your poison resists (there are Slain Souls that throw poison seeds). Have you tested

Erawan

15% Combat Speeds
5% Chance of Crushing Blow
+(144 to 171)% Enhanced Defense
(27 to 30)% to Strength
(27 to 30)% to Vitality
Physical Resist (13 to 15)%
(15 to 20)% Bonus to Defense

instead of

Runeflesh

yet? because defence could be higher. Also you're missing QT, Ureh and MCS charm. Smax Wild and Free for the last two ubers.

Ah, I know what your issue is: you are running, not walking. This says it all

Going beyond -100 poison resists makes sense only when you fight heroic bosses. -100 is the cap for regular monsters.
