Delirium antlers?

Delirium antlers?

I just found a druid antler pelt while soloing chaos:

+3 tornado
+2 volcano
+1 Armageddon
3 sockets

Is this a good candidate for delirium (inorder to make a high dmg pvp helm)?

Not very good helms in my opinion. The chance to turn into a fetish kinda makes them useless in PvP but thats jusy my opinon.

+2 druid 3 nado pelts aren't that expensive and you really don't get anything from derlium but +2 skills so I wouldn't suggest it.
 
hmm what would be the better alternative shako or jalal's?

I've been having trouble with barbs lately, should I get a double shael CoA?

ber ber coa with dual spirit, at the very least 99/99 if not 163/174 fcr/fhr.

id use berber coa, an uber 2/3/2/life druid helm, or some uber circlet.

delirium is a horrible helm for a char thats not melee. dont be misguided into thinking that extra +2 to skills is THAT beneficial to your character.
 
with the helm though, I'm sitting at 7.2k Hp and 7.4k dmg

I see how the turning into fetish = autoloss tho.

What helm should I be aiming for? Jalal is kinda useless for me on its own because it wont break any FCR/FHR plateau's.

Should I aim for 163 fcr and give up some of my hp/dmg?

or should I go for a CoA with Shaelx2 for the next FHR level?

vs barb i would go 163/174 and ignore DR. casting fast and being able to resist their leap is key, the wolves will be your shield and lifeblood. also of course practice , DvB duels are one of the more fun duels.

what is your setup? i bet you arent using dual spirits, but insted something like hoto/ss or hoto/spirit.

why coa with 2 shael? use ber ber coa.

try:
FCR: 163
20 circlet
20 arac
20 from 2 rings
20 glove
70 from 2 spirits
rest from crafted amulet

for 174 fhr:
40 circlet (2/20/2)
110 2 spirit
20 trek or fhr ele charms
rest in small charms


for pub setup, ber ber coa, dual spirit arac blah bla bla.
 
I was considering the set up you mentioned, but it takes a hecuvalot out of my stats, but I havea 200fcr sorc so I understand the streamlining concept.

I have 2 spirit items (monarch and crys sword)

regrettably my sword is only 30% fcr. I think it's enough to just make 163... hmm I'm looking for a better one as we speak. Trading for it's gona be rough though.

I love the 2x spirit look. Swords are pimp.

Thanks for the setup advice.

Btw, when do I use the berberCoA?

EDIT:
so wearing those items will get me to both 163/174 plataeu? I like that.

But could you elaborate on the pubbie setup?

berbercoa vs any phys user, smiter,bowa,wind druid,BVC!

theres MANY variations to druid setups, ranging from dual spirit with coa(dr fhr), 2/20/2 circlet with 2 spirit(fcr fhr), or even druid pelt+ss+wiz or spirit(dmg fcr) or suicide.

the one i prefered back when i was using windy was coa and dual spirit for 70 fcr 110 fhr and 31 dr. 30 more will reach 100 and the rest is up to you(either belt or glove +1 fcr ring). perhaps bloodfist to try for 174 fhr. or tgods for resists.

7.2k hp windy... that seems hard to believe for a windy how so? nah, I can't believe that till i see it

with lvl 49 oak and 9x30-44 summon/lifers I was just over 6.5k humanform :scratch:

are u vita?

I am at lvl 92 with 2 more oak points yet to go.

I have perfect anni/torch with 40+ life skillers and 20life sc on bottom row

+100 life ammy +3 elemental skills

I have a friend who lives and breathes this game, that doesn't hurt either... unfortunately he's no druid player (his barb owns me)

EDIT:
yea im vita
I have 0 points in str/dex/energy.

ok.:tongue:

yeah my lifeys were in the 18-20 range. 13/19 torch, 14/17 anni, +3/87 ammy. : P I guess I could see it

but yeah, if your gear is that top end I would never use that deli then
 
hmm the deli just adds quite a punch to damage. I used it a couple of times in pubbie duels and ive yet to turn into a fetish (only downside right?).... but im scared to use it again :shocked:

What do you recommend for top end?

Also I just got a 34 fcr spirit sword (yay!)

35 fcr is extinct.

I'm also having a lot of trouble finding a 18 fcr+ amulet.

All i Keep finding in trade channels are 10 fcr's.

I'm quite new to pvp, in fact i am in the process of building my first pvp char, a windy druid(for the most part he is done). I figured i'd share my setup as it seems to be working out well (although i am a very inexperienced dueler, i seem to be winning quite a bit with it, and having a great time.)

Helm: Jalals (sheal)
Ammy: 2 druid 19 fcr (looking for one with some other good mods, but you are right, they can be hard to find)
Rings: 10 Fcr Dex+res and 10 fcr Str+life
Weapon: Hoto/Wiz spike for caster setup
Shield: SS(ber)/35 Spirit for caster setup
Armor: Dusk Enigma (Imo looks the best on druid)
Gloves: Bloodfist/Trangs for caster setup
Boots: Treks/Waterwalks for caster setup
Charms: 20/20 Druid Torch 20/15 anni/ ele skillers with some mods (str/dex)/20 life scs

Some changes i still want to make, Id like to get 2x fhr skillers so i can use waterwalks with both setups, and i'd also like to get ahold of a really nice rare pelt, but damn is it hard to find one that can beat jalals. (wouldnt swap it out until i found a rare with 5 nado/2 os/ 10 fhr) And of course i could use some nice ele lifers, but i cant really afford these without tapping my pvm chars.

This setup gives me 99/99 for melee and 99/163 for caster, which seems to work out quite nice. I considered using ber/ber coa for dr instead of ss, but ss gives me even more dr and max block. I would never use shako over jalals, the only benifit i can possibly see is slightly more life, but that is in no way worth the loss of 50 fhr/30 res/20 str/20 energy ect. from jalals. I would however take a shako over a druid delirium, as there are no good mods on that besides 5 nado. Almost any rare 5 nado pelt beats it, but as i said before, it takes a really good 5 nado pelt to beat jalas. To summerize:
5 Nado/10 fhr/2os(sheal/sheal)/other mods rare pelt>Jalals(sheal)>shako(sheal)>Druid delirium.
In other words, delerium comes in dead last; dont use it.
 
eh im on non-ladder now :(

I just tried my delirum vs a barb... I was winning and he had a sliver of life left.

Suddenly i turned into a fetish.
