Why? :O

I'm not sarcastic, I regularly check back in your thread what's "hot" and what's "not" :)

Real compliments are not recognized in the century of trolling :-S

The internet has desensitized me to everything i guess. :p thanks though. :)

Pity you're not playing in standard. We could have done maps together. :)

I do have a legacy sporker in Standard tho (and some twinks), never did the respec and probably it will suck right now.

Gave all my surplus on goods and value away to some random nice-newbs, actually I don't bother with Standard much because of the unsolved economy issues.

Hi, I'm doing your build on my first char and im having bad trouble in act 3 cruel. It was really easy up to this point (I think I died like twice in all act 2) but now I die alot and its very hard to gain lvls and progress.

I am lvl 49 ATM and this is my gear, I hope I understand how to link it right:



passive tree:

What would you say I should do? Is my gear good enough? If not what should I trade for / farm for and what are the costs of those items I need?

Thank you so much for everything!

Btw I am not running blood magic yet since I dont have the right socket on items, I have the gems and 2 additional skill points waiting so I can level it whenever I want.

First things first; you have waaay to little hp on your gear. The first thing I would do is get a 4-linked rare chest with life, and maybe some resists. This should cost you less than a chaos orb. RGGG sockets shouldnt be difficult to get on it.
Life on hit-lightning arrow-chain-LMP, and switch that mana leech for life leech on frenzy, then spec into blood magic ASAP.
If you do this, I think your survivability would skyrocket at this point.

Keep in mind that dropping mana flasks for life flasks helps alot!

Ok I got this armor for now

I know I need life on hit not leech, I'll work on getting that gem and then changing the bow before getting blood magic. Do you happen to know whats the cost of trading for life on hit gem?

Anyway now I look like an ugly-ass-spiky-pirate with this armor :D

Thank you for everything and the fast reply!

Mortal Conviction is a must-have if you plan to run any auras with blood magic. :)

Updated my dps numbers, got myself a new amulet. Increased by quite a bit, despite having to spec out of 15% phys dmg into a +10 int node.

Also: Skeletotem on damage taken is insanely good.

I'm testing out a skele totem on damage taken now, but since I can't dodge I can't use blind, which is typically the best. So what should I take in the 4th socket? Minion life? Minion/totem ele resists?
