So im plan for my charger is thus far..

Skills norm rushed- 4 charge, 14might
Skills G rushed- 4charge, 15might, 7misc defensive skills(cleansing, fire res, cold res, light res)

Stats- currently unsure

Equipment-
Bloodfists (life and fhr)
CK boots (dex and frw)
Angelics (life and ar, dtm may help too)
Deaths belt (CBF)


Now here is where it get trivial...

My next thoughts are.. 6os pike socketed with 20ed jewels for max possible damage..

4sock gothic or ancient using 20ed -req jewels

3sock crown socketed with 20ed jewels


Im not sure how the ed works in armor, but any help would be greatly appriciated.

I also realise i could always go with clegs/azure + 30/20 maxxer shield

But i figured pike would offer the better dmg, and quite alot more at that..

You will want to use +max in your helm/armor. Do some math and you'll see why.

I was unsure if the 20% ed applied directly to max dmg and or to weapon damage or just to an average dmg.

Though if i choose to use ed in my armor will it still be at all effective since im pretty broke but i have a crap load of 18-20 ed jewels.

So could it be viable using ed in my armor? Or is it just better all together to get some 9maxers?

Thanks for the help ^_^

There is something in the sticky called "Weapon damage calculations".

Since you are getting so much ed% already, it would be safe to assume that even 6 or 7max jewels would add more than 20ed jewels in your helm/armor.

Ok thanks, so that means a pike would be the best weapon to go with?

If so im going to make a super pike, i just wanna make sure first since im using some pretty insane 20ed jewels Razz

Check the Arreat Summit to see if its the highest damaging weapon for your level.

An ith rune adds 4.5avg damage to the pike. A 13%ed jewel will add 4.5avg damage to the pike. Logically, a 20%ed jewel would add even more. Iths are a good way to "test" the build before you commit the jewels.

Yeh im definently going to go with the pike, its gonna be so sexy too, i suppose ill go for a gothic plate, unless i get more 20ed -req jewels then ill have to use a lightplate/BP :[


Hopfully he comes out good in the end..

So does this gear sound good for him?

6x 20ed pike (with at least -30reqs)
3x 9max mask or crown (depending on my str)
4x 9max gothic plate OR 3x 9max light plate/bp
Angelic rings/ammy
deaths belt for CBF
bloodfists for FHR/life
CK boots for frw and dex

You will do better with a low range weapon, since you will make a normal attack, once you are in weapon range.

with that set up and your lvl you will have around 1500-2k tops dmg and 300-400 min dmg. This is a very fun build. Skulmaster he's just a charger not a melee so i don't think he cares about being inside for melee duels.

and make sure you dont use ed/max jewels in your armor or helm, due to the ed/max bug.

use high max in your armor instead of the %ED, +max will add FAR more damage than %ED

Your damage should be good, but you will more than likely run out of mana very quickly...
