PvP novamancer with infinity?
This was just a passing thought, and I wanted to see what you guys had to say. So instead of death's web + w/e shield.....
Helm: CoA with either ums, shaels, or bers (kiras in stash)
Armor: Enigma
Weapon: Infinity
Gloves: Trang
Belt: Arach
Rings: both 10 fcr (with nice mods if possible)
Amulet: 20 fcr
Boots: Treks (or nice rares)
75 fcr breakpoint, at least 39 fhr breakpoint, at least 18 dr (resistances would be a problem)
The main advantages I could see is the massive -170 resist (with lower resist), and fact that you don't actually have to cast lower resist on because you already have conviction working for you. Also does it matter HOW much a person is in the negative? Does -40 take more damage than -30, or do they both take the same?
Big disadvantages: No block, slower fcr, bigger problem with resistances, less dr than you'd get if you used stormshield on a standard build, and the conviction may not be necessary with the combined -res from dweb, lower resist, and possible trangs
As far as I can tell, the standard novamancer setup looks like it's the better build, but I thought at least this would make for an interesting discussion.
