View Full Version : Hi. Need some help with a lightningfury javazon
I have no idea where to place the skillpoints, so I was wondering if someone could tell me the exact number of points in the skill trees.
I was following this guide http://diablo.incgamers.com/forums/showthread.php?t=127612 but it doesnt tell me how to place the skills.
The guide states:
Pure Lightning Amazon
Max Charged Strike
Max Lightning Strike
Max Lightning Fury
This will give you great melee both against big and lesser packs (CS and LS) while still having the option of going ranged against great mobs (LF) -- You wouldn't need ranged against single monsters, CS should allow you kill even the strongest mob very fast. A one-point wonder to remember is Jab, this will be your main attack against LI's, and I’ve chosen not to raise it. I've never had the urge for it, this is a personal choice.
Balanced Lightning Amazon
Max Charged Strike
Max Lightning Strike
Level 1 Guided Arrow or going all the way to get Freezing Arrow
This will give you very strong lightning attacks, not as strong as that of a pure lightning build obviously, but enough to handle most monsters with relative ease. LI monsters are handled from range with a high damage bow, Valkyrie and your mercenary. It’s worth mentioning that going the FA route will add a lot of safety to your Valkyrie and mercenary when they fight the foul beats.
For the lightning skills, max LF and CS first, then the synergies after you get all other stuff covered, like decoy, valk, etc. You can place one in LF then CS until they're maxed. You'll be using both skills so you might as well level them together.
Before we can tell you more you need to tell us about your plans. Do you plan to use a Valk? Are you building a pure lit zon or a hydrid of some kind? What gear do you think you'll be using? Tell us whatever you can and then we can walk you through more.
BTW, welcome to the forums.
Thanks. I was mostly wondering about how I place my Passive\Magic skills. It wont be a hybrid, but I will be having a spear on switch for lightning immunes. I was planning on using a Valk, but I've never played a LF zon before so I'm not quite sure.
EDIT: Oh, as for gear, so far I've gotten my hands on some Titans Revenge and a Lionheart wirefleece, a Rhyme Luna and an Insight wep for my merc. I'm planning on getting thundergods and stormshield later when i can afford it. Not too sure about stormshield tho, as it has a pretty steep str req.

I've not specifically built for PvM but all of my PvP javazons can do hell pretty easily. I'd say to just one point everything. Then if you feel that you're doing enough damage add more points into valk.
Stormshield is an amazing shield and I would say that it's definitely worth it.
