Darkforce Spawn or Homunculus? Just find a perfect Darkforce Spawn in Ancient Tunnel by my MF sorc.. Currently, my skellymancer uses a P. Diamond Homunculus. Just wonder which one would be better ? Homunculus Hierophant Trophy +150-200% Enhanced Defense (varies) +5 To Mana After Each Kill 40% Increased Chance of Blocking 30% Faster Block Rate +2 To Necromancer Skill Levels +20 To Energy Regenerate Mana 33% All Resistances +40 +2 To Curses Skills (Necromancer Only) Darkforce Spawn Bloodlord Skull +140-180% Enhanced Defense (varies) +1-3 To Summoning Skills (Necromancer Only) (varies) +1-3 To Poison And Bone Skills (Necromancer Only) (varies) +1-3 To Curses (Necromancer Only) (varies) +30% Faster Cast Rate Increase Maximum Mana 10% My Darkforce Spawn is +3, +3, +3 (lucky me).. but, the strengh requirment is not low (105), although I have pump my strengh to 97 to wear skullder's Ire for MF. For the 30% FCR, it seemed better for bonemancer or poisonmancer since the skellymance won't need it.. Any suggestion ? Thanks! Chien
seriouly i would say use the homoglut, u got nice block and great res but thats just me btw u plan on selling that shield? i would luv to buy it from u can u email me at [email protected] with ur acct name i will have rune offers for u becuase im currently at school
2 things: 1) if Homun is better... why then do you want that one? 2) THIS IS NOT THE TRADE FORUMS, YAH FOO! To the original question, yes, Homun is better. ~Kbob
becuase i dun have one yet, and i am an avid necro collector i have every unique necro wand and am thinking about getting "every" one after the ladder resets, hehe yup im nl ^^ so on that note i also am collecting every necro head
Maybe if you desperately need the 30% fcr use the darkforce. Homoncolus is the most versetile shield in the game IMO.
hehe, ok.. I will think about the trading thingy (shishh... let's not talk this here ). I also think homunculus is better overall.. but,hey, my posionmancer or bonemancer could use the darkforce spawn since I only have one Homunculus. Thanks for all input.
well can i get ur acct name? ill talk to u online mine is *scott_mog also...east, west? sc, hc? ladd, nl? ur skull on west sc nl? plz lolz
sorry, I am not online now and I'll need to think about this. :xsmile5: PS: I am at USEast SC , hehe, of course, ladder.. that head is ladder only item.
Personally, I would favour the Darkforce Spawn for a Skelemancer due to the higher +skills, and the Homunculus for a Bonemancer or Venomancer due to the resists and the vastly improved blocking. Skelemancers have much less need for defensive bonuses than do non-summoning necros. It really depends on whether you've raised your Dex to give you blocking on your Skelemancer. If so, might as well stick with the Homunculus; no sense wasting all those stat points on a low-blocking shield. If not, I'd switch to Darkforce Spawn (and socket it with a perfect diamond, of course). Extra resists are nice, extra +1 all skills is nicer for a Skelemancer.
Imo, for a non-blocking necro, both are put to shame by a +3 Boneflame, since that has the extra +1 skill and resists. YMMV however
Hmmm. my Darkforce Spawn is +3,+3,+3. so that equal to +3 all necro.. not worse than boneflame. The difference will be one has 30% FCR and one has 20-30 resist all. For blocking, I think skellymancer won't need block, IMHO. You have way too many "SHIELDS" already.. unless you rush, otherwise, you're pretty safe without block..
