show what you have

Talking about armors, i've found this nice one yesterday in M2:




Decided to play a little bit wih 2h just for the kicks



My first impressions about 2h:
- it's fun to play;
- i'ts better suited for premium players (no shield means more dying);

As a side note, although he talent Rush of Blood (life regen with MWS) is useful, it really breaks the attack flow for me: break armor, no rage for smash or dragon's fury -_- So far i prefer the Profitable Use talent

 

4× armor lines for >1K+ armor torso and possibly some armor% gems would do it....

 

Its not the best Armor but it works ... i played allot at jesters and only those 2 armor stones droped.


Armor from boots 748, gloves 636, armor plate 1551, pauldrons 634, helmet 429, amulet 567, and belt 276 .... plus for all these i got the bonus for items belonging to the Warlord set, thats 15% armor ... there u go.

 

I love it. I didn't say that i don't belive you i just wanna know how armor is good.
Again i love it

 

I was expecting a jester armor gem or two to have armor that high. I have two legendaries that I hold in my bank depending on if I'm looking for armor or HP. They are almost mirror images of each other.


I did show off an armor build in the past that had some pretty sick armor, but because I don't have any of those armor gems (but I do have 6 golden clovers), I have to make use of the two part defender's set to get what I did.

And when it comes to stats, they would be higher theses days due to gem changes. I really like the full warlord set with my 80%/80% shield because it gets super tanky. The wolf shield may have slightly higher rate, but it will never beat mine for overall effectiveness.

EDIT:

Just messing around ;-)
I used to be able to hit 80% before I melted the Dark Helm.

 

After spending some hours in m2 for testing, i decided to jump on the bandwagon of 2H DK

 

hahaha this is #####

 

Keep it for speed farming, maybe. You know, in areas you can easily get through, but want an unique from, or something. Or PvP?

 

You can only speed farm Slifmoor with that weapon.
There is no reason for upgrade since you got almost nothing out of it ... and the damage is terrible. You can't even get proper damage bonus from other items either.

 

I just went by BigPapa's words from the SW forums, about a speed wand .

 

Wand and sword are 2 different things.
SW can spam stuns DK can't. DK's healing is depending on damage.

 

Ah, true... LOL, genius me strikes again. Pardon me. Guess I'm a little slow today... just like they are in delivering us the DoE event xD.

 

I want to tank Mortis, what to improve and how?

stats here

 

HP/Armor/Resist, otherwise you won't be able to take a ice breath unless you have full HP. Not a bad start to a 2H, but you're going to need a second tank to pull it off for the time being. Also, get at least the 100 gold cloak. That 10 gold one is just good for melt. Better yet, work hard on the 1000 gold cloak as that is even more well rounded.

 

My lv30 Dk Are the stats good for the level?
Any suggestions?

 

About the armor/resist/hp, how could i improve them without hurting my damage much???
and about the 100g cloak, i farmed like 2 hours yesterday for the cloak, but i got ONLY 11/25 2/75 and 2/9, is there something wrong with my luck ????
All my left side items are really important for dmg and crit

 

People farm A LOT more for that cloak with similar or lesser luck. Prepare yourself, because the 1k gold cape's quest will take even more.

 

atleast i can farm for the 1k cloak at the same time when getting useful items at m2,m1, but farming atlantis is just USELESS AND BORING

 

Gems (but those take time), Keen's (but those take luck), or nice legendaries (but those take even more luck).

In general, get your resist from gems (Fill up the 5 items you have on the left with +40s or bigger), you HP from your gear and gems (Fill up the right hand side items except for any helmet specific you may have), and armor you should try and get from your gear only as cyanites are widely agreed as the most useless gem next to onyxes.

Additionally, you could level your gear up and that would only help you. Pick the items that will give you the best all around boost for the least glyphs.

Any other advice I could offer you would involve things like the Dragonache set, or the Black Warlord set, both of which are not smart ideas given that LVL 50 is right around the corner.

 

I should not even think about Keens or some rly good legs, because my luck is rly bad with them...
I need offensive gems but they drop really rarely from monsters and usually the drop is onyx-.-
No drakenz for dragonache, and i tried completing Warlord set, but i gave up because 90% of the drops are helmets and cloak droprate is maybe 0.01?? Next time im gonna try really hard for the Warlord set, some1 knows when the next dragan event is coming??
