Random musings:
Not having any effective blocking in 1.07 is a pain in the arse (one of many actually) but, other than the many unexplained one hit deaths, the build was relatively easy. The combination of Smite and BH took care of just about everything with a lot of ease. I only came across one PI/MI monster and I run with my tail between my legs. Interestingly, CB seems to work against the PIs in 1.07. I put a few points in Zeal at first just to give me a quick start and it worked well and I didn’t consider them wasted. The point in Prayer was a mistake; it seems to be far less useful in 1.07. The merc was only useful in so far as it divided the incoming attacks. I spent a shipload of money resurrecting him, but money is easy to come by. Dropping a potion on his portrait in another of those pains in the arse I mentioned, about a third of the time I didn’t get there in time and another third I missed the portrait and the potion dropped harmlessly to the ground. It even lead to a few deaths on my part too. I had a few stat points in reserve to use the Griz set if I’d found it, but in the end I simply couldn’t find Griz’s heart (yes, I found all the tc87s) so I finished without using them. In fact I used the same gear for almost the entire second half of the game.
