I have yet to see a build that doesnt utilize a Valk. I have only seen a few builds that uses a 1 pt valk.
How important is a valk if you are fairly rich in d2? what if you could get a merc with max res all, a lot of leech and damage (act2 might), and defense?
would a might merc be better or defiance? getting a valk really nerfs my builds. i wont be fighting mephisto, and im on non ladder so i cant use reapers toll for decrep. basically Pitting and helping people out in my clan.
i have a 1280 ethereal pally armour with Um, a 790 def wire fleece Chains of honour, a 200% ed ethereal Amn'd spire, 450 def Delirium, 108 shako.... basically, decent gear. doom big stick maybe, its a bit costly though, im down on runes too.
it just saves a lot of points not using her. of course it makes life easier if you do. however, it would be cool to just go use a 20/20 synergized FA instead of a 10/20. quite a big difference with +4 skills, +5 bow skills on a FA with 10 vs 20 base synergy.
I would then invest like 3-4 more from base in Multi so i could spam KB in pit (even though you people said it wouldnt work as good as strafe in close quarties, it does a better job of KB'ing in nm pit than strafe does....)
------------------------------------
Edit:
Also, how about level 20 in penetrate? like just after skills level 20? good enough for a strafer with WF in pit?
26th level strafe is cool in nm to watch. I am trying to not use Atma's and use my +3 passive +35% mf ammy instead. (passive tree helped out globally has some nice effects!
