(Cheap) Equipment:
Ptopazed shako
wealth or skullders (tals armor)
(isted) Occulus
2*nagel
chance guards
war travs
rhyme grim shield (shael+eth)
tals belt or upd goldwrap
tals amu or MF amu
(mf charms/gheeds)
(2*tals for killing speed)
(or 3*tals for additional killing speed, sacrificing some MF)
You'll want plenty of +life charms for this one as most stats go to dex.
Countess-runs
andys (for str as you'll have used most stats on dex for blocking)
spirit shield
magefist (upd)
war travs (again for +str)
vipermagi (for fcr and +skill)
ravenfrost (dex and cannot be frozen)
soj
occulus or better
=8 fps
3*tal and 35fcr spirit will also get you the 8 fps (105 fcr)
act 2 merc-holy freeze
insight (eth col voulge, cryptic axe.. )
andys/gaze/Ptopazed shako/stealskull Ptopazed
stone or MF armor if str reqs allow
It's probably not the best but great fun, cheap and versatile!
Was hoping I'd managed to write this before somebody mentioned hammers and skellies. Darn
