LLD Guides/Webpages Silly questions maybe... looking to make a vlld sin, and was wondering if there was any quides or webpages people can refer me to... so at least i can get a basic outline ^^ thanks for anyhelp
Level 9 sin... basics: 3 socket light plate, fill it with wrath jewels 3 socket mask or crown, fill it with wrath jewels too Deaths sash Deaths gloves Hsarus boots, gorefoot works too... rare or magic amulet, look for 5 strength or dex as a mod, AR is a good secondary mod. Rings: AR. Nagelrings are an easy way to go here, though magics can get a bit higher AR. Weapon: Few choices here: 1: Clegs sword. Requires 55 str, if you go this route, Crown>mask, and consider going to 60 str for an eth. 4 socket gothic plate. Big bonus of clegs.... 50% DS=lots of 1hit KO's. 2. superior 3 socket blade talon, preferably eth, though if you're sc, you'll have to replace it. Fill it with wrath jewels. 3. REALLY nice rare blade talon: Ideally... 2 sockets, eth/repair, AR, Max, ED, IIRC, you wont need IAS to hit any breakpoints. Charms: One with cold damage, other than that, all large charms of life (15 life tops per) Skills: max burst of speed for your level, rest into claw mastry. I've probably left something out, since its been a little while since I've made one, and thats all just off the top of my head, but its a good start. good luck. -Matt
For gear: Healm: 3 socketed mask with 3x +9 max damage jewels Armor: 3 socketed breastplate with 3x +9 max damage jewels Weapon: Clewgaws sword with +9 max damage jewel Shield: Pelta Lunata Buckler with +9 max damage jewel Belt: Death sash Gloves: Death Gloves/Bloodfists Boots: Hsaurus or gorefoot Rings: 2x nagel rings with high ar or some +ar rare rings. Amulet: +5 strength rare ammy You can also use a 3 socketed blade talon with 3x +9 max damage jewels or a 4 socketed gothic plate with 4x +9 max damage jewels. You can also wear an ancients armor for a lot of defense but you'd most likely have to socket in 2x -15% requirement jewels to lower the strength requirement. Or you could get an ethereal ancient armor with 4x sockets with higher defense and lower requirements. The downsides is that this usually means less damage and you run slower with the heavier armor. Use Death's gloves+Sash to give a 30% IAS bonus and the gloves give great poison resists and the belts give a very important "cannot be frozen" mod. If you don't need the 30% ias since you're going to pump burst of Speed, you can use Bloodfists instead for a nice life bonus and faster hit recovery. For stats: Strength: enough for gear, you can also use some strength gcs to lower the strength points put in which usually means you lose less life from small chamrs. Dexterity: enough for max block Vitality: Rest Energy: None The amount of strength should be determined by which type of gear you're going to use. Skills: lvl 9 Tiger Strike lvl 9 Claw Master/Bust of Speed (depending on if you go claw/clegs sword) lvl 2 Burst of Speed (depends on claw/clegs sword) You can also get a hell rush and do all of the quests along the way. You can do the den of evil quest, Radament, and Izual in each difficulty for a total of +12 skills. With the +8 skills you acquire from leveling, you can get a total of 20 skills. You can also do the potion of life quest 3 times and gain +60 life and gain +15 to stats and +30 resists by getting hell rushed all the way through and doing all the beneficial quests.
Nooooo, not pelta lunata! (well, its an option, but I personally dont see any upside when compared to a bone shield of deflecting) BSoD has an extra socket, AND it looks cooler The extra socket makes it outweigh the pelta by far IMO. Another smaller point... if you're gonna use clegs sword, might as well use a crown over a mask, since you'll have enough str, and its got higher defense.
