helm idea |
|
I gambled this circlet, 8-30 cold damage 60 life, level 22 require. if it gets 2 sockets from larzuk, does anyone think it would be worth giving up 1 socket from a 3 socket mask, to gain 60 life and 8-30 cold damage (to annoy those chars who don't have cbf). I figure it can't be TOO much worse than a 3 socket mask, but i'm not so sure if it's worth giving up the mask for

i doubt ONE max jewel will make you lose every single time, considering the helm already has damage and has life to make you last longer, personally i'd rather use your helm, but what do i know?

well the best helm would of course be 30%ed, 2 sockets, 60 life, 100+ ar, with 2x 24 max jewels, but i am not sure of the level on that, the Deadly prefix on circlet i dont know the level

eh, id take that circlet over the ordinary 45 max mask. the extra 60 life is nice, and the fact that itll look like you arent wearing a helm, is a plus.

what if they were all 22+ max jewels though, i wonder if it is worth losing 24 max. maybe not for the current circlet i have, but definetly for the ideal circlet you could get

well the 60 life means u can take off 45 life from sc's and use another 10/70 gc'
u get 15 life and gain the 10dmg + 70ar..... is that worth a 22jewel?
anyway,,, ultimatly if your going for +22's and u already got 3/20/15's (or 10/70/25's) up the wazooo...... well then the circlet isnt anywhere near that caliber..
now 40fhr with sheals is gonna save you EIGHT 5% sc's... so that might be better if your using some 5% and would rather get 120 more life

some general info |
|
first of all, you'll only get one socket from quest. here's the quote from the horse's screen (i.e. arreat summit)
Quote: | Set Items, Rare Items, Unique Items, and Crafted Items add 1 Socket (1 Socket Max). |
2 socketed rares are only available if they spawn with mechanic's prefix.
second, deadly (21-30%ed) prefix can spawn on any level circlet (ilvl5). i don't know if this is really a desirable prefix, since rares are limited to up to 3 prefixes and 3 suffixes.
IMHO, the best circlet would be:
prefixes
+ skills (e.g. Monk's, Maiden's, Magekillers, etc.)
2 sockets (mechanics)
and one more suffix suck as +attack rating (up to Platinum or 120ar), +% to attack rating (visionary), scintilating (12-15 resist all) etc.
suffixes:
30frw (of speed)
+life (up to 60 with colossus suffix)
and one more suffix like strength (up to 9), dexterity (up to 9), poison damage (up to 50), poison length reduction (up to 75% with defiance), life leech (up to 5%) etc.
hope that helps
