i was planning a dmg return build.
i saw the best option to be druid...
wolfs *more targets*
oak *yes not SOB*
lycan and wolf/bear
theres items that give thorns aura, thats part of it, you can also get IM as a 0skill, thats the other part (as far as minions go) but the main source is this little gem... uniq blade barrier
+200% Enhanced Defense
(4400-5000) Thorns Damage (Based on Character Level)
Prevent Monster Heal
+50% Faster Hit Recovery
20% Chance to Cast Level 20 Iron Maiden when Struck
Socketed (3)
Reanimate Slain as: Returned
+5-7 to Blade Shield (Assassin Only)
+5-7 to Thorns (Paladin Only)
+20 to Blade Shield (OSKILL)
+20 to Thorns (OSKILL)
100% Chance of Open Wounds
note re-animates also a good source of damage return, this has the thorns on it, 5000% thorns dmg, and 3 os... chuck in 3 uber skulls, thats 30% dr and an additional 3000% dmg return (thats why your the main source) now all you need is another 20% dmg return to own any melee boss
with max oak/lycan you will have oodles of hp... and if you want insanely OP amounts of hp, i have some more gear to add in.... sazibis set (looks mediocre at first but upon closer examination)...
Full Set Bonuses:
Resist All +50%
+3 to All Skills
Increased Maximum Life 50%
Increased Maximum Mana 50%
15% Chance of Deadly Strike
that and the armour has +100 hp, the armour helm and sword all have 3 sockets.... 3 io's in the sword, 3 uber rubies in both the armour and helm... thats a additional +270 vitality, +120 hp AND +60% more life. I havnt even worked out how much hypothetical hp you would have, chuck in some +life sc's and then its fun city.....
only reason i didnt make this build is because its useless vs. missles and elemental, so i guess you could farm druiel all day haha... wow that was long, but yeah i like the way it looks, someone make one in a hax version and lemme know how much hp it has and how fast it can take down a boss lol.
Thanks, Mic.
