Take it easy, guys. maiku is a nice guy as I follow his VoRdin in pally forum :) LOL. There are more curses/summon skill you can use as you only need 60 some skills to max poison skills (plus some pre-req). It will be, for sure, very hard if "ONLY" poison skills are used (anyone try to stab by using poison dagger with fleshripper? then, you have huge poison, high AR, CB, and OW yourself :p). If you have merc/revive tank/CB for your, your poison certainly can help in some way. 100% agree that most damage will be dealt by CB initially as CB taking out big chunk of life very quick.

I don't try my poisonmacer in U-trist for sure since I don't have godly gears for him yet. I might try some day :p

Come on, guys. I've read in zon forum that zon can do ubers as well even it is extremely hard.

Very hard to do "not =" CAN'T be done = "Fun" for some one :)

Isn't it the same reason you make weird build maiku? (i like your build for VoR and Cold Nova, btw).

Cheers!

BTW, I don't think Nigma (tele) is necessary since when do you see smiter using nigma in U-trist?

PS2:

Anyone read the Full trang poison mancer for PvP below? Many people think it CAN'T be done. But, well, looks like a FUN and Viable build!! GOGOGO weird builds (weird in good ways :p)

:turns red: I'm glad you like those builds as much as I do.

I have tried doing Ubers with my M'avina Frostmaiden and my Strafers a couple times and had my butt handed to me many times. I think it was Crawlingdeadman who showed us that Zons could do it...just takes a lot of planning, practice, and time to get it down. Even then, my experiences tell me that Bowazons generally are not ideal for Uber Trist. Conviction Zealot, though, can handle Ubers well, just as most other Pally builds can. It's just the way they're made (gogo Holy Shield + Smite!).

There are a lot of things to take into account when Ubering, and I don't doubt that a good Poisonmancer can do it. It's just that I think it'll be Poisonmancer + summons doing it, not the Poisonmancer and his poison alone. Summons provide CB, safety, crowd control, etc.

It's possible...but the main problem with "Enigma" is the lack of resists. This is why most Smiters/Zealots use "Chains of Honor," "Fortitude," or "Duress." All of those provide nice goodies + resists. "Enigma"...uh..none. I think it could work on a Conviction-based Smiter, since he could override Meph's aura with his own and avoid having his own resists be lowered into the infinite abyss. Even then, I think I'd take the previous three armors mentioned for their goodies.

Read it and enjoyed it! I'm assembling full Trang's at the moment, and that guide is what inspired me to do it. Last night I found Trang's belt on a Pit run, and all I need is Trang's helm now. I have a few poison facets to socket in the items too. But no Deathweb. I don't think I'll be getting one of these soon, so I'll use a Blackbog's or "White" Poison Nova wand to try to cover the deficit.

I use Blackbog before I get Dweb. Dweb is THE weapon for poisonmancer even the low one. As I don't have godly gears, someone crazy enough (in good ways :p) might be able to try Uber with "Poison" only skills :)
