Duress or Fort?

[deZ]

I'm making a Fury Wolf, pvm use, I'll be doing both bosses and normal monsters, is the 300ed worth it on Fort? Or is the CB better also with FHR and OW?

You'll need more protection than damage tbh.
With a good weapon you'll be killing most mobs in hell act 5 in a few hits anyway.
I'm using ethereal edge axe (i'm not rich enough for high runewords :P) and it works great. Only problem is Physical Immunes which i then take care of with gimmershred (upto 1300 elemental damage) and non-leechable monsters. You also need the resists more especially when fighting skeleton mages, gloams, etc.

So Fort or Duress?

lol yeah, smoke actually does better at times than any of these. I prefer some MDR, like about 15-20 if possible. gloams and stuff. just getting back into the game now, just in time for patch i see. freaky.

duress though is nifty for a bear though, the super swing on a 2 handed sets off the CB constantly.

gloams are lighting and phy and do 5 hits per 1 attack.......

mdr is more key to gloams than lightning resistance is. if you are used to such ideas.

DR is also great for them, 30-40% and they dont hurt much. -20 DR and with that and the mdr, they do very little compared to what they would do without.
