Mid Level Duelers? - BrioCloud - 08-02-2007

Can somebody please suggest a good, or best Mid level dueling char there is? I'm looking for a melee char. Could the lld zealer just raise a couple of levels to duel? I'm sure it will open up for alot more gear. I currently have a lvl 29 fully equiped lld zealer. My goal level is about 55. Thanks guys.

imo the best mid level (as in lvl 30) is the kicksin. I am making, but got interupted by the new ladder, a mid level cser. Cs would be cobra strike that has life and mana steal.

In my opinion the best mid level melee dueler should be either a fury druid or whirlwind barbarian.

By the way afro_box, level 30 or below is usually LLD. Anything above 30 is either MLD or HLD.

Yeah, I'm shooting for a lvl 55 MLD. Melee. You guys got a build?

Smiter is better or a hammerdin. I've actually seen lvl 30 mid lvl hdins. Spirit sword and spirit shield and thats about all i know. Look it up and im sure you will find something, but your going for melee. I saw a godly shield my friend had for lld/mld packed with ed and damage jewels. It was insane. Good luck.

oh a zealer hrmm forget smiters just stick with a zealer and BTW assasins are limited to mainly 2 character builds once they hit MLD. kickers are only good for lld and sometimes hld. There are lots of other chars that you can make for mld ask me and ill right you a guide but heres a zealer guide
