enigma????

hello,

I want to make an Enigma for a friend, I am just wondering what the best/most common armor to use when making a nigma. I know his str is prety low because i gave him a GA and he does not have the STR req's for it.

Any advice would be nice.

Thanks

Re: enigma????

Archon plates are the most popular i think. Dusk shrouds are popular too, and I've heard mentionings of mage plates and great hauberks. But mostly archon plates and dusk shrouds

IIRC, Dusk Shrouds have the best Defense/Str ratio.

Re: enigma????

For a pvm hammerdin Mageplate is the way to go as you want base strength. I wouldn't rely on str glitching.


30 str from Maras/shako/torch/anni is easily achievable.

Re: enigma????

mage plate is best way to go if you ever plan to xfer it to another char because of its low str requirements.

i myself just made my first enigma or runeword better than spirit x] its on my hammerdin now x]

Re: enigma????

Yeah I am a big fan of mage plate and also of going base str on basically any build you make. Me and my brother made our first Nigma mage plate a few days ago, now I have anther Jah need a Ber and I plan to make anther Mage Plate Nigma(so we will have 1 for each of us. right now we are sharing lolz).

Re: enigma????

AP has got a bad str/def ratio as Enigma does not enhance damage, but adds solid defense. This obviously means that, if you could make it in a quilted armor it would be almost as good as a full plate for enigma.

Anyway, as mage plate, from now on MP, only requires 55 strength and can reach 1000 def as Enigma. Dusk would get practically the same but will require 77 strength. If you don't have torch & annihilus, make it in a light plate for even lower requirement!

Not to mention MP/LP looks great on paladins!

Re: enigma????

Personally I love my MP enigma. Means that you I go base str, dump the extra str into vit, and get some nice extra life.

Downside of course is that you pretty much need a rush, you'll be wearing complete crap gear for the first 65/70/75 levels (65 to wear enigma, but unless you saved str charms you probably can't until anni at 70 or anni+torch at 75).

If you were poor and went guardian angel until you could afford/find the runes for enigma is there any downside to putting it on say a loricated mail or balrog skin?

They are not popular tradables so i'd say if you want a heavier armor (strenght wise) go for either dusk or archon plate.

Mage plate seems to be the most popular all-round choice these days though.

Re: enigma????

i'd go with mage plate. the str req is so low almost anyone can use it, so it's very tradable too.
