Re: max block with spirit monarch?

Softcore! :whistling:

Really, though. If you get hit you're doing something wrong.
See, if you sit in town you've got 100% CTB with any shield.

What Ankeli meant, is that this really just applies for softcore. In hardcore there is not really a way aroun dusing max-block

... 105 FCR is also a huge help. Which way you go really depends on your playstyle.

Unfortunately the 50FCR from Tal Rasha's set won't let you hit 105. You'll at least hit the 65FCR with magefists. ...

No but you can hit 105FCR with Tal Rasha's set + Magefist + Perfect Spirit shield!

Re: max block with spirit monarch?

The merc leveling thing was taken out right? the one where it was better to level them. Isn't it just better to buy a normal merc than a hell merc now, and doesn't matter what lvl you buy it at?

also, i'm thinking about just sticking to my 50% block and pumping the rest into vita, with a ss on switch. Has anybody ever done this, using the SS for really hard bosses?

Thanks for the advice, esrious people

you could use hoto/Gangel/Spirit, you would reach the 105fcr breakpoint and not need that many points into dextry. i know you want to use full tals set, but was an anterlative.

Yes, you can change merc when ever you want without losing anything. Just buy new one at right difficult lvl (normal/nmare).

Yes, done that. That SS works nicely when you are amp cursed and archers are near. You can go and tank those and safe you merc. Works nicely both in tower/pits and near eld/shenk.

Bosses are not real problem as you can use tele to keep you and merc save, use that SS while ranged attackers are near, those amp cursing archers are quite nasty.

Other good example where SS is good, is valley of snakes, helps a lot while you try to tele past those snakes. But no real use, if you don't do rushing/helping.

Try to get 105 fcr while you use SS, then its easy to get over 117fcr (if lightning build) with spirit side.
