I like doing the follow a strong Barb/Zon and use Death Sentry strat.. working pretty well..

Only bad part is, i cant kill crowds for crap by myself, i can take down a few cows, but eventually they just overcome me..

Ive got a maxed Phoenix Strike, Claw Mastery and Death Sentry (prolly didnt need to max that, but oh well) Plenty of pts left.. tiger strike?

Your vitality is uberpumped. Good greif... mine lasted through HM with only 130 dropped into it. You have a sickening number of stat points to assign too. Are you using haxored stuff? Either way, pump your dexterity immediatey lol. Assassin claw damage is calculated from strength AND dex combined so its important to keep both fairly high.

If you havent yet, put points in the claw mastery skill. Mine is maxed. Tiger Strike wont help on groups, its a single monster take down skill for bosses / uniques.

Crowd take-downs are rough. Gotta be quick on hot keys. Use your shadow and merc to help tank, then blast them with phoenix strike a couple times to really freeze them. Then drop a few death sentries down and keep going to work with claws. As soon as one corpse drops the cascade starts.

Counts fingers....counts toes....something don't add up...180pts/5 = 35 levels. So how do level 50 attributes add up to what is displayed ? All those stats are WAY above my level 74 character and I have none unused...:hmm:

[ItsNoot]

Yah... I'm countin too and something aint right. 85*5= 425 available points so far. 425-184 in hopper = 241 assigned to stats already. Total stat points.....

650

Thats 409 points getting boosted from somewhere. You have more points boosted then you have available to assign...You gots to be haxoring foo!

[Gibb]

hehe, something certainly does seem fishy, how could he have that high of vitality, no items i know of give more than 20 vitality

[msan_msw]

I think the answer is clear.....

[Gibb]

here are the stats for my MF sorc:

[Gibb]

so yeah, things definately dont add up.... wtf Stryker?

If you put all 184 points into energy, plus the other 15 for the quests, you'd be way over what i have now, and i dont think items could possibly do that.

[Lollan]

lol you knobs... this is why..

Im wearing Bartucs... 2 real SOJs, Nats Helm, Nats Boots, a EoE, some crappy belt and IK gloves.

LOL.... like i said. That Arkaine is hacked to hell fool. According to Arreat Summit:

The max vitality boost (@lv99) is 49.
There is no boost to life.
It generates + class specific skills, not ALL skills.
Max enhanced defense is 180%
Total max AC is 1450
Its NOT indestructable
It has NO resists, instead a damage reduction modifier

[Gibb]

must be a 1.08 arcanes. Yes i have heard of items giving more than 20 vitality Stryker, but they all suck usually. I've never had an arcanes so i didnt know what that did, not that it even does that anymore anyway.

Hot damn I think you're right. I can see why they changed it... those are some rediculous mods :D

Still doesnt explain the indestructible mod though.

[Lollan]

Oh well, i dont care.. not like im gonna get rid of it now..

[JeDaGe]

lol, that is .08 valor, i had one before(when there was soj currency) i traded it for 40 sojs
:O

[Lollan]

Hmm.. ive got a question.. is there any advantage to having dual claws really? I dont appear to be attacking much faster as opposed to using a shield with a claw..

The only real benifit is getting the bonuses on the second claw. OH.. and you can use the Dragon Claw finisher which is currently the only decent one. I'm pretty sure you actually attack slower (believe it or not).
