Sweating the Details: Build Questions
Hey Zon Experts,
I'm an experienced Zon player from the pre-1.10 days. I never had the best equipment, but I did alright (Lyc, Buriza, LF hybrid w/Titans, etc). That said, I tried to build a new Zon in 1.11 using my old Multi/GA methods (and a Lyc/Buriza combo) and she's just not cutting it. I've acquired a decent stash of tradeables using different chars (sorc, necro), and I'd like to give a Faith Zon a try.
First, I'm partial to Multi so I'm building around that. I'd like to use Strafe as my tight space & boss killer. My question would be on the extra skill and/or immunity handler: Should I try to max CA/FA for freezing power? Or use MA for magic damage? If I use CA/FA, I'll obviously have less points for Strafe and Penetrate/CS (considering ~10 in MS and high/max Valk). If I use MA, I can dump more into Strafe and Penetrate. Can one get away with not even using a immunity handler if Strafe can bring elemental damage? What would be your recommended pts for MA, CA/FA, and Strafe? I realize it's probably personal opinion, but I'm just looking for a few suggestions.
Second, regarding GMB vs. Mat bow, which one should I go for? This doesn't have to be the ultimate Zon, just one that's Hell viable and fun to play.
My basic equipment would be:
Fort Armor
Laying of Hands
Razortail
Cats Eye Ammy
Ravenfrost
Dual Leech Ring
Goreriders
From what I've been reading here, should I go for a Mat to ensure I have the speed I need? Or can I muster enough IAS to go for the GMB?
Thanks in advance for any insight!
