new zon runeword!!

"Peace"
3 Socket Body Armor
ShaelThulAmn
4% chance to cast lvl 5 slow missles when struck,
2% chance to cast lvl 15 valk on striking,
2Amazon skills,
20% faster hit recovery,
2 critical strike,
cold resist 30%,
attack takes damage of 14

personally i think my low lvl strafer would perfer this one...i wounder how the slow missiles work if two zons are not partied? and what about the lvl 15 valk...that would be nasty if you have a valk up covering your but and another one procs in the wrong location

“Treacheryâ€
3 Socket Body Armor
ShaelThulLem
5% chance to cast lvl 15 fade when struck,
25% chance to cast lvl 15 venom on striking, (that's gonna go off constant with a strafer)
2 Asn skills,
45% IAS,
20% faster hit recovery,
cold resist 30%
50% extra gold

all of the r/we are relatively low...hope that is because the duping is fixed and the r/w will be more reasonable now

I kinda like the sound of Peace. A level 15 Valk isn't that much weaker than a level 17. She just wouldn't have a warpike. This runeword could save all zons at leat 17 skill points.

That plus the skill points you can save from pierce with a Razortail opens up all sorts of options. Interesting...

Peace looks like it could really help a "no tank" fendazon. I.E. a zon with no D/A/E and thus no valk. Resists would be a real problem though.

Actually, the real advantage lies in having Peace on your merc. This means that it is possible to have 2 valks instead of one.

Do you get the chance to cast with each arrow you shoot? How about during strafe and multi, do you have the 2% chance with each cast of either, or with each arrow in them?

wouldn't casting valk all the time like that interupt your strafe or would it be unoticable?
yeah that would really be annoying. and valk has a slow cast rate too. ><

the pally one was interesting too. it was like 100% chance to cast holy bolt on striking. haha gogo fireworks.

These runewords would be ladder only, correct?
Nope, not ladder only.



And while the new ones don't compare well to all the insane expensive stuff, they're not supposed to. They're really good for their low level requirements, which is what they're meant for. And more importantly, they're a very reasonable possibility when the ladder reset comes.

Excellent point, I wouldn't use this RW at higher levels, maybe not at all if I had a Twitch ;)

i wouldn't use it on a zon, castable lvl 29 valk is better. my zon has @15 points in decoy too, so my valk never ever ever dies. in fact, if i see a particuarly nasty boss pack, i wait and see if they can hurt her. so far, only a extra strong/extra fast has been able to get her to half. i don't remember where though.

nope. didnt seem to interrupt it when i tried it.
you just hear the valk die then find it next to the monster that triggered the cast (i was using strafe, so she bounced around often. but not a lot. Good thing its just 2% or else it would get too noisy!)

Imo Peace is better off on the other classes besides a zon. The real benefit is from the +2 critical strike, which will add way more damage than a fort with +skills. I can imagine a charger or pvm zealot would use this.
Though unsynergized, a free valk wouldn't hurt either.

by the way
whenever i equiped it on my merc the game would hang when he casts the valk.

will this bug trigger on other chars (non amazon)? (too lazy to try right now :) )
