strafe amazon with dragon runeword - hilarity!

[ScruffyhawkIII]

although the dragon runeword appears to be incredibly useless, (and indeed it is) i just borrowed my friends and threw it on my strafezon. the chance to cast hydra is awesome, because after only a couple strafes the screen has about 25 hydras on it, all blazing away. the hydras are level 15, so the damage may be insignificant, but its still really cool to watch. try it out, its great conversation with all the "wtf" and "omfg whoevers shooting hydras stop im lagging so bad"

good stuff!

Add to your power by using partial trang set peaces {idealy the belt and gloves?}, and also a rare ring with charges of fire bolt.

I know for a fact that the charges from fire bolt would increas the hydras damage by a % synergy. There is a possibility that the +skill fireball from trangs might do the same.

charges do but the +skill don't

What about using a pheonix bow? I think thats what its called- anyway they are pricey but might be really cool with this build, and they have -to enemy fire res. If you could get maybe a helm with some more or some gloves with +fire skills ...? who knows this could be a kick but strafezon/guided build! :xgift: :xeek:

Same hilarity ensues when you use a Delirium helm. Go to a Fallen camp in act one, Strafe once, and watch all of those little guys call each other a**hole and start attacking each other! :)

Its also fun in the cow level. The choas that it causes there is just mad... o_O

Actually, Dragon isn't really that useless. There are discussions about Enchantress's making use of 2x Dragon with HoJ for some good damage.

I just read your post and was sitting back thinking about it. I must try this, just for the humor. Thanks for the idea.

heres some actual screenshots of the hydras in action. their numerous enough to have a visible effect on non fire immune enemies health:

Thats just so cool! I just noticed the 100% to cast level 18 bone spear on striking on one of the new missle runewords. Although i forgot the name, imagen making it out of a 4 sock short bow and marching into a hell fallen camp with multi-shot. Although they cant reach 4 sock, god that would be cool shooting 24 bone spears per second. Now if only dual weilding bows.. hydras and bone spears :xrollseye

haha, with 100% pierce, that's like...about 20 million bonespears!
