Necro Warrior Gear Thoughts

[The Silvertiger]

The author of the sampire bible is known to say jackals and grips are bad for samp.

I personally don't like ring of the vile, but it can be used. What I always shoot for: 40 + di, 20 + hci, and 19 =/+ dci on jewels. LMC, luck, stats, ep, and ssi 5 can also be greatly beneficial.

Glads definitely can be used, but is not necessary. If you have it use it. If not use a crafted gorget.

What talisman are you using? If you have
conjurer's trinket you have some flexibility in hci. Glads also offers flexibility here. If you have 90 DI between jewels and weapons you can use void for 10 LMC or any talisman. If you can't get 80 DI between jewels and weapons, I suggest using trinket or primer.

Quiver of infinity will also grant you flexibility on your jewels.

The popular build nowadays is mace and shield glasses in the head slot and leggings of the bane. This gives you 29/14/14/46/12, 20 hci, 6 stamina, 30 hld, dex 5, and 10 str.

That leaves you with 4 pieces to get your stam, mana, resists, lmc, and hp's up to par.

Before you start this build you need to consider are you going to build an actual sampire using
vampiric embrace, a traditional whammy using
wraith form and curse weapon, or a mounted whammy using armored swamp dragon/

Human or elf? It matters.

Consider what you are going to be doing with your character. Peerless/single target dps or spawning/aoe mitigation. The actual sampire does well with both as does the mounted whammy. The traditional whammy does best with single target dps.

From there you want to consider what weapon you will be using as that will tell you how much stamina you will need to keep max swing speed.

So here's the basic stats you will need on your crafted pieces:

41 physical[36 for whammy] (for 70)/

56 fire[81 for sampire/61 for traditional whammy] (for 70)/

46 cold (for 60)/

14 poison (for 60)/

58 energy[63 for traditional whammy] (for 70) [add 5 for elf]

LMC 30+

USE POTS

Stam inc enough to keep swing speed at 1.25

Have hpi enough to get as close to 150 hp after pots

Mana inc to keep specials up as much as possible

WTF Mounted Whammy ? If u use MOUNT u dont use Wraith form... -.-

ps. u didnt mention the INSCRIPTION TRICK that helps much with resists

[Tanya]

WTF Mounted Whammy ?

It's me lol

What exactly is wrong with using stormgrips? Seems to work fine for me.

[Tanya]

stormgrips + orny + 1/3 ring works perfect for me too
Ideal will be ring 1/3 and brace 1/3 and replace stormgrip, but difficult to find all that.

So ? Still doesnt count for whammy. Its like if u would not use VE and run on foot and post - footed sampire lol

[Tanya]

I think if you just starting Sampire, jackals is perfect item.
But later when you have good armor and enough stamina you can replace it with a crafted gorget (mana/lmc/stamina, resists or hpi), and by that have 7 or 8 more lmc.

All depends what weapon u are using.
If u want to run with 2axe like me u need more stam = cant use grips ;p

They could give the Tinker Legs so we could use Ornate Axes

42 HCI seems to be plenty enough to solo/duo bedlams which is all I made the character for.

All ends if u go for perfection or u want "Duo things" U can DUO bedlam with 40 hci even or maybe 30 .

Same as u can go with mage with 90 lrc on spawns instead of 100

I have no problem at all getting perfection on Ilhenir when I get honor. I honestly don't think the 3 points of HCI makes much of a difference at all.
