Suicide vs. Wizzy & +2 Valor vs. Upped Viper
For my hammerdin i've been planning to build, i'm thinking about using suicide branch instead wizzy since i'll be able to max res without wizzy and gain the +1 skills. Only thing i'm worried about is losing the huge amount of mana given by wizzy. I've calculated that i'll have about 300 - 350 mana with base energy (without charms), which leads to my question, could anyone give me an idea of how long i could cast hammers until i run out of mana and basically if this enough mana? Btw i've never played with a hammerdin before.
My second question is does anyone else here think a +2 valor is a good endgame armour because i've never heard it been mentioned in any guides or threads?. If socketed with a -15req jewel the str req will only be 140 instead of 165 which is fairly reachable. I think a valor would be great since FCR isn't needed on the armour since the 75FCR break point is easily reached with wizzy/suicide (50), arach mesh (20) and magefists (20). The resistances lost with valor (opposed to upped viper) are also quite easily made up for in jewels and charms. The valor would also let you hit the 5 frame FHR break point together with sandstorm treks (50FHR). Anyone else think this is a good idea? (plz don't mention enigma or COH cause i'm not that rich :cheesy: )
Any feedback would be much appreciated, thanks guys.
