Vindi/Temp FoH Questions

Should I invest one point in convict and let plus skills boost it? Thats 4 points of prereqs though, so I was wondering if it is possible to have a 4 Socket scepter with +3 Combat skills or foh and +Conviction.

Also if I can't get this, even if it can exist its most likely insanely rare, should I put anything in conviction?
 
The point of a PvP V/T, is the forst your opponent to stack resist, as pravda said. You are going to want to get your conviction decently high. Not necessarily 25 [the max], but at least enough to make people be forced to stack their light resist.

I dunno, I am a v/t and got my conviction to level 25. I also have a 3.3k foh and 2.4k smite. I do very well with both modes of attack and generally only have to hit weapon switch to kill whatever they had to switch.

1 is enough for all kinds of duels...

either you are facing nub or you are not.

facing nubs, you dont need 150 - resist to kill him

facing experts, with 220 - resist it still wont help you.

many of the guys I face can't change out enough gear to negate it without totally sacrificing their build, this doesn't include pallies, of course. However, I agree with your comments, almost 100 percent.

Yea thats my exact reasoning. If anything, i do better now with 1 pt base (11 or so w/ gear) in conviction and synergized foh and 3.2k smite, than before with 19 convic with gear, minimally synergized foh and 3.2k smite.

Either 1 pt is all you need, or all the points in the world won't help you; there's rarely any middleground.

Thanks for the help, 1 point it is. :thumbsup:
I agree with SH and you can shop for that with in act 2 hell. Try getting the exit of the town beside Drognan so you can keep on shopping. I try to keep about 1 million in stash to buy that really nice scepter. So far, I've shopped a +3 foh and +3 conviction one. I'm hoping I will find a priest's (+2 pally skills) or rose branded (+3 combat) caduceus of quickness with both +3 foh and +3 conviction. I can dream can't I? :uhhuh:
