This is my second Lite Fury Zon, shes doin about 1.7k lite dmg. with T-gods, titans, spirit shield, vipermagi, shako, rare glove +skills, rare ammy +Skills
shes lvl 76. I was in a Chaos game a few weeks ago and someone said their LF Zon did about 7K Dmg. But the didnt say their gear.(Max LF.CS.LS)

What my question(s) is, Is that possible dmg? if so, what do I need to invest in, and is my current damage "Average" for this lvl with what I use now?

Thanks.

Your current damage is more than average. I'd say it's good. To hit 7k LF dmg you'd have to get it into the 80's (!), so this guy is looking at poison damage on his LCS or (more likely) just lying to you becasue he can. I wouldn't worry about it too much. You really need to ask yourself: are you happy with your kill-speed?

A few things to try...
-Try a Razortail instead of that T-Gods. I always preffered this for the added piercing, which is wear LF really gets it's power. Throw the T-Gods on if you're facing souls or a single target (Boss), but if you're throwing bolts at packs go razortail.
-Get some IAS. Try a Highlord's if it'll get you to the next BP. It's worth giving up one or two skill points if you can hit the next BP. Speed kills.
-Get an Infinity merc. (This = pwnage, it also = expensive.)
-Try to get your hands on a Griffon's. I like the Shako better some people prefer this.
-Try to get some jav skillers. They're a LF-zon's best friend and plain ones aren't ungodly expensive. I always try to get +skills this way and concentrate on IAS with my gear, because you can't get ias form a charm.

Hope some of that helps.

Final tip: don't listen to anything people say in pubbies. The truly godly players in this game usually prefer to level the field and see people react, rather than spend time bragging to strangers about the numbers that can't be proven and essentially mean nothing (It's called the LCS, or "lying character screen', for good reason. Massive damage numbers mean nothing if they can't be utilized effectively. (Poison 290's on a strafer for instance. :uhhuh: ) Think of it like putting a 3000 horse-power top-fuel engine on a bicycle, it means nothing if you can't put the power to the pavement. So, yes, you could fill you inventory with 290's, or something similar, and your LCS would show about 7k dmg, but you wouldn't kill any faster than you do now, because it's the wrong kind of dmg. So try to up your ias and piercing with your gear, get your hands on a few skillers, and see if you kill faster. Try to ignore the loud and the proud. You'll probably kill everything on screen before they get done typing...

(Poison 290's on a strafer for instance. :uhhuh: )Wow, a full inventory of those things is just a little better than my Treachery armor, and costs a whole lot more. :lol: I am going to stick with my +max charms.

I would say use T-gods in general game play, since there usually is not enough enemies to pierce. In packed areas, like CS and cow lvl, Razortail wins out.

The guy in the chaos run was probably not lying to u. He may be doing that much damage but would probably die very easily if he was swarmed by a few venom lords... My lvl 85 LF Zon is in the 7k-8k light dmg range. Its actually quite easy to accomplish with the right gear and points invested into the lightning branch. Here is my setup.

Gear:
Helm: Perfect 5/5 light faceted Griff.
Ammy: +3 Java skills, +67 life
Wep: Perf T-Strokes
Armor: 20/20 Light faceted archon plate
Sheild: 20/20 Light faceted monarch
Gloves: +3 to java skills, 15 IAS
Belt: T-Gods
Ring1: BK
Ring2: SOJ
Boots: Eth Treks
Basically u want the most +skills/light dmg possible

Skills:
Simple... Max Light Fury and all synergies.

Meh, that would be no fun to play. You'd get hit with an elemental projectile and= insta-death.

On my Javie last season I carried a 3 facet Head-Hunter's Glory that I was very happy with. I had it on switch with perf T-strokes for CS-ing bosses with, she was the fastest boss killer I've had. I carried a Spirit and Titan's on my main weapon slot.
