New style of build/play

just recently tried a new build, it only works if you have aggragoth/yithair drop access

400 strength
265 vitality

bloodlust helm
frozen jerkin
heroic gloves
radiant greaves
radiant boots
frozen dagger
golden blade of ice
radiant necklace
royal firefang ring (40 heat dmg) x2
royal coldsteel ring(40 cold dmg)
grand coldsteel ring (25 dmg)
currently using energy bracelet and a greater earthstone bracelet, will be switching the earthstone for a damage when i get a good one


with this build i have 1020 damage at level 131
however, i have almost no energy/regen, therefore the skills i use are

smoke bomb
fast reflexes
poison weapon
hide(lower idol use as i have no camo charm)
extra points in bandage to compensate for no health regen items



i personally love the build, i hit hard and dont have to put money or points into energy sucking skills for damage that often get evaded, it is a new style of play for me (i ran max damage skill based build before) but have to say this way is working out much smoother

the only hardship is the loss of health regen, i may decide on a health bracelet rather than damage one

Cool build, I don't currently have any agg drops, nor am I high enough to wear. (106) But I'll keep this in mind!

Damn... that definitely sounds nice!

(I have to admit, I am imagining my Ranger with those gear... plus "continuous" Rapid Shot ... I'd probably lower the dmg a bit just to be able to cast RS in battle lol)

I have a build similar to this but with radient chest I use. And I use venom blade with maxed sneak attack royal sneak ring and max assainate and heroic ammy I get about 1005 damage with that and have 2 nuke skills also. With that amount of str I suggest u loom for either good dagger braclets from aggy.(haven't seen one yet but there gotta be one right) or some nice 7+ talons which give about 50 damage each

U use all the dexterity skills. so would it maybe be a good idea to have a ring that gives some sort of dex bonus. the more dex for those skills the bettr they will work.

fish, dex is a waste for me because my radiant greaves add 500 defence, i put everything into melee damage, i use these skills because they help some without slowing down my melee or sucking energy
