Hi,

First off... is it better to max decoy for both the decoy life and the valk life? Because valk is nothing but meat shield right? so if you max decoy you'll get 2x meat shield for the same price no? Also with decoy at higher level it only cost 1 mana and you get to keep your valk at 30ish mana cost also... is this a win-win setup instead of maxing valk? The only reason I see maxing valk is for the damage.. is it really do that much damage?

Another question... regarding torch and strafe.. how much lag does it cause on bnet? cause I was playing in single player to test and my comp actually slow down to display all those fire graphics.

Thanks.

Use DirectX 2D. I am fine with it.

get faith for a few um runes and you can ignore both valk and decoy forever

This is easier said than done... really, just no...

The skeletons raised from Faith are not all that reliable in that they do not follow you around much, and the strategy added by Decoy and Valkyrie makes an Amazon even better at crowd control.

As for the questions, Torch works ok with any Amazon skills, it seems you can only shoot 1 Firestorm onscreen at a time, so the 25% chance won't actually work all the time. I prefer maxing Valkyrie, Decoy at Lv1 works wonders and I use it a lot.
