Post subject:  Zod Runeword Helm

I was thinking that there aren't very many runeword helms and I think a Zod runeword helm would be great.

Ethereal, Invisible, Ghostly, ? (working on the name)
Zod Jah Ber

+3 to All Skills
+450%-500% Defense
+30-50 str/dex/vit/energy (30-50 each so it could be a 38/50/47/41)
+1 Teleport OSkill
Resist All 50%
10% Damage Reduced (From Ber)
20% Life (1/2 from Jah)
10% Mana (From Jah)
+30-50 Mana After Each Kill
Fade on equip
Indestructible (from Zod ofc)

I think another high end runeword that gives OSkill teleport that isn't a armor would be cool. Some builds would be able to use, ele druid, trapper, bowa, smiter, zealot, jabber or chose to use Enigma either way because it's still a good armor. But it wouldn't really be usable by summon Nec's or Hdin's end game because SM Set + Enigma is still better. Just think it would be a fun item that fills the zod runeword helm department. It's kind of like a super Kiras with teleport.

Yeah, so overpowered that you added NO def boost at all on that helm. Sounds crappy and imbalanced, that "kind of like a super Kiras with teleport" IMO.

How to fix it?
I'm really drunk by now, cant think properly at it, but single best solution is forsaking the idea xD

need to add something:

number 51 is not between 30 and 50.

Okay so your two criticisms are a typo and forgetting to adding defense? Because those would be really really hard to change you know? I don't know how I could ever change those two things... I better just throw out the whole idea altogether, or maybe you could not make yourself look like an idiot by posting drunk. Problem solved.

Anyone else have something dumb to contribute?

Remove Teleport from this helm and enigma and that warspear staff and we'll have a deal...

changes:
4 socks Zod Jah Ist Ber
remove res
+15/30 stats, no str/dex/vit/ene because it would take +3 more rw bonuses
250-300% ed
remove tele and fade status and add +1 fade oskill (should be easily +50% all res and some dr% aswell)
+50mf (Ist)
20mana per kill
+20 deathknight oskill

wouldn't be too overpowered imo

There is a reason that tele isn't on a lot of things...this is so you have to make compromises...how about another skill that could be useful?

OSkill Whirlwind.

What is it about teleport that people hate so much? It's already insanely nerfed in this game being that you can't teleport through walls, over most rocks, and it takes forever to get through a doorway... Do you just want the game to be exta slow paced?

The Gothic staff OSkill teleport is a sacrificing item to use unless you keep it in your cube and then only use it when you need to teleport across a lake or through a prison gate or something. I don't see why you would want that gone.

The whole point of my suggesting this item is to have another high end runeword that has OSkill teleport. If you don't like it at least provide a valid reason why.

I don't mind the Ist thing that could be useful.
I don't really care about the +random stats thing just as long as it has some solid +stats on it. If it would be easier doing it your way that's cool.
The lowered % defense your suggesting might be okay, I just want it to have at least 700 defense when made in a eth elite helmet so as to have similar defense to SM Helm.
I don't want there to be a 0Skill Fade item just because people would prebuff it and then switch gear, that's too easy.
The Death Knight 0Skill is a cool idea for sure and I would like for it to be on something else, maybe a Zod runeword Shield? I'm wanting another 0Skill Teleport runeword.

Teleport 0Skill is on 2 items:

Warpspear
Gothic Staff
+3 to Sorceress Skill Levels (sorc already has tele)
Ignore Target's Defense (useless)
+3 to Teleport (OSKILL)
+3 to Telekinesis (OSKILL) (useless)
+3 to Energy Shield (OSKILL) (useless)
+150% Enhanced Damage (useless)
100% Chance to Cast Level 1 Teleport when Striking (extremely annoying)
100% Chance to Cast Level 1 Teleport when Struck (useless)
100% Mana Stolen per Hit (useless)
100% Life Stolen per Hit (useless)
+100 to Attack Rating (useless)

A staff in itself is compromising, much less this one.

Enigma is a great runeword. Used on... 4 Builds for the most part? Hammerdin, Elemental Druid, Summon Druid, Summon Necro.

Now lets see what these people would have to compromise to use this 0Skill Teleport helmet.

Hammerdin, Summon Necro: They couldn't use Soul Mancers set which has amazing end game set bonuses.

Summon Druid would have to give up Ravelore which has +6 to Summons and other very nice end game stats.

Elemental Druid might be able to use this over enigma without sacrificing anything.

So 1 build out of the main 4 that use enigma would have an easy time switching over to use this making it still a item that requires sacrifice to use.

I think 0Skill Whirlwind is better suited for a weapon runeword than a helm. My personal opinion, but it would seem more balanced that way. Because then you HAVE to use the weapon to have the Whirlwind and not just be able to use Whirlwind to get out of a group of monsters with any character just because they get stuck or trapped. Makes it too easy to use as a random skill instead of a 0Skill used to make a certain build.

well at least your admitting that all of your posting contributions are dumb. If you have any actual input about the Runeword then feel free to post it or stop spamming. Two good options if you ask me.

Also, I'm guessing this is a compliment? Because millions of Germans loved and respected Hitler when he was in power. He was a great leader and I'm sure he had amazing social skills.

I don't think hating Jews has anything to do with a persons social skills.

Who is AH? I'm confused.

AH= Adolf Hitler. The Fuehrer wasn't known (or loved by millions of Germans, and small fringe groups today) for his social skills, but rather for his eloquence and ability to inspire people to do what turned out to be the wrong thing. He really knew how to get people fired up. However, he did have the nasty habit of throwing temper tantrums when he received bad news.

It may just be a film (and an award-winning one at that), but if you want to see aspects of Hitler's personality, I suggest you watch der Untergang. The actual movie, not the youtube dubs about him losing hid xbox live account.

I agree that a zod rw helm would be good. However, runewords lack luster as you cant add gems to them and if you make them on par with a gem'd unique people will cry out OP.

The useless runewords should be given attack skill oskill that sorcs and necs can use to help them in melee

I concur, this was an excellent movie and a wonderful display of acting from Bruno Ganz. For the english folks, the movie is referred to in the US as "Downfall"

Major issue i see with having oskill on anything is war. Let my hammerdin get natural res, increased stamina, and iron skin and still be able to teleport. Sorry but that would be insane....
