Curious if any Diamond guy have thought about a Shield that can have 5-6 sockets but requires 2hands.

Thinking of something like Facebreaker exclusively for Shield Charge skill? :D


heh yea thinking of a shield designed essentially for facebreakers so you have another option to get more than 4L and maybe open up some a new skill with charge or something. Could be a really cool graphic too (when they get to them) some massive shield

That helm is better than ANY RARE ITEM.

Its simply sad, maybe if it had 100 eva rating... But that way just makes it BiS.

I have read some people saying that a triple res rare with chaos resi is better, wtf. You can get it easily on gear but seriously...

Can you get
-cannot be frozen (dream fragments and unique boots, both low level and bad)
-25% chance to avoid chilled. Thats sick
- +2 to auras lol! The other helm that have this mod is now shit
- cold res
- 700 eva
- 8% less mana reserved
In one slot?

nice balance


Look im thinking in donate 1000$ for design an unique item such

Base vaal regalia
-300% increased energy shield
-145 to maximum energy shield
-cannot be frozen
-cannot be shocked
-cannot be ignitef
-cannot be stunned
-cannot be killed
-cannot be damaged
-this chest armor has 7 sockets
- +5 to all gems in this item
(no drawbacks)

Question about heartbreaker.

As a summoner, would it give all my summons Culling Strike?

edit: found the answer, it doesn't

Asked kripp bout this on stream, Says it would be perfect if that was shock but as is its a loss of like 500 life on high level charecters. Getting frozen isn't a big deal on high hp charecters (doesnt last long). So who would it be usefull on... Ci IR builds was what I thought... But then you're sacrificing 400 es on a helm which would be at least 1k es...

This is what makes it not as good as it seems. Its a great item but there are better.

For me it does work in a build but that build needs a lot of uniques. You need covenant and shavrons and somethink like redbak. You need a build that has all the mana reservation talents and lots of es talents. You then run all the auras off your life and any left over flats on your mana. you then switch your covenent to shevrons.

Perhaps CI EK or CI MACE with vaal pact etc.

This build is worse now though because it sacrifices the 20% MORE es sheild. But as you can see niche and hard to find a "perfect spot" still its VERY good.

It's the highest dps helm for elemental based builds though, don't forget that +2 aura level is BIG
It's really not. I'm assuming you're talking about boosting Wrath/Anger - +2 levels on Anger means roughly +10 flat fire dmg, which is scaled up by passives, supports, blah blah blah. I doubt this is more than a 100-300 DPS boost for the sort of characters you're talking about. Is that worth ~300-500 life and potential resists? Probably not, for most people. Again about the Frozen/Chilled stuff, that's negligible for life builds anyway. CI/Low Life builds are another story, but using this helm means a huge loss in ES for them - I honestly wouldn't use it on such a build myself.

I really think this thing is being over-hyped. It's a really cool unique, it does a lot of useful stuff, but the drawbacks (though they're not explicitly listed) are are quite extensive. I don't have a problem with it at all.

"As a ranger using the blood magic gem, you had to invest 3 skill points to reach the 2x 5% reduced mana reserved nodes in order to run Determination/Haste/Purity/Hatred. With this helmet you save yourself 3 entire skill points while still being able to run said auras. This helmet is a huge deal for me."
I play ES/CI summoner witch and I prefer +2 minions helm myself. And ES, and intelligence, and mana, and resists, iiq/iir, my list continues.
I cba about frozen/chilled because it rarely happens when you are surrounded by army of minions. And if it happens that's why some flasks are for.
See, this helm is not BiS for every single character, its good, but not for everyone.
Not game breaking for sure, devs aren't idiots as some of you may think.

Uniques are supposed to either be somewhat niche, or have drawbacks to balance out their uniqueness.
