Maximum Lightning Damage Javazon

[The_Worst]

I love javazons since 1.09 for cows and chaos runs.

I have made some hybrids using buriza, lycanders, etc...

I also made a 1.10 lightning javazon with 4 lightning skills and valkery, 1.10 plague javazon with max jab, valk, etc..

Pretty balanced amazons so far.

Now it's time to go to the extreme!

I want an all lightning javazon with all 5 lightning synergies!

No valk and prereqs.

1 jab
1 poison jav
1 plague
6 in passives
and all five lightning skills maxxed
thats 109 points.
12 skills from quests. So this zon will be done by level 97! Realisticall, level 90 is my cutoff point for running the same character

Here is my ideal set up:
Griffon's w/ Facet
Highlords
Titans/Stormshield
Tstrokes/Someother Shield for act bosses
Valor/Lionheart (unless I find a ber and make Chains of Honor. I refuse to trade for these duped runes)
rare java, ias gloves
Thundergods Vigor
War Travelers/resist boots
Raven/Leech ring

With gear, Jab will be about 10. I don't want to add any more hard points.
I know I wont have much piercing, but I rarely throw Light. Fury except for HUGE mobs

A strong merc will make up for a lack of a valk. Although I will sorely miss slow missle and decoy.

My question is about lightning synergies. Lets say my Charged strike damage with synergyfrom lightning strike is 2000. If i add 10 points to power strike, 10% increase in damage. Is the damage calculated from the already synergized damage? In another word, if I add 10 pts to power strike, would my damage be 4000? Or is it calculated from the unsynergized Charge strike damage. :scratch: I hope you are catching on what I am wondering about. :surprise:

In short, would the 10 points be better spent somewhere else, like in jab?

I've tried a build like this one. Heavy into lightning damage. I've found that my favorite attacks are still Lightning Fury, and charged strike. You can easily get to around 2k per bolt, and I think I release like 7 or 8 resulting in obscene damage that insta-kills almost everything.

At lvl 50 with a "cannot be frozen" item on and a decent jav u can solo baal no prob. I think I was doing it at lvl 42 or so.

Build is okay for PvP too, but you will find that u lack life and resists. You can always go with high resist and + life gear, which IMO is expensive. Storm shield is still mucho expensive-o

You could go with a mosers blessed circle with a couple of p diamonds in there. I think that has high block? I dunno. I have had great success with a shael'd SS.

I like the resists it adds, and the DR. I need to get my attack speed up, anyoen know how- please be specific, I do not understand the IAS tables at all.

and I think anything more than one point in jab is a waste in almost every build. The Light zon gets her damage from her light skills- which dont come into play when using jab. Go with dodge or something like that.

Why dont make a 4 facet and 4 facet shield. That IS a maximum Lightning damage Javazon.

I only found one facet so far in ladder2. I also have other chars i want to trade items for so 4 facets is a little expenisve right now. I want to focus on skill placement instead of light damage gear.

Well I looked up chippydip's calculator and for those who wants to know, synergy doesnt increase the already synergized skill, but the base damge of that skill.

i have build such a zon you speak of fully synergyzed in all skills. primary attacks are charged strike and lightning fury. both skills are at lvl 32 and i currently deal ~4500k X 9 bolts and 1-2000 k for fury. that would be about 40k lightning dam with primary attack. the only problem with this build is no diversification of dammage, which is why i invest so heavily in pdsc's. I also have a buddy i love, an avenger paly with my favorite aura of all time CONVICTION!!! this means that almost every monster is dealt the full lightning dammage. This pair up i love because he will tank and i will just blast away behind him. we clear hell levels like it was normal difficulty.
