does he have cta in 2nd wep, torch, anni, gcs, life sc? those can help big time if u dont have em

[Frenzyak]

hm.. ill work towards those, only thing is im not that rich

[hwoarang_t4]

well a 3 bo (that like middle) aint that much and that alone will help u alot

[Frenzyak]

i play uswest ladder, and in my opinion the rates r hella weird.

but how much u think a 3bo cta goes for 3 hr?

[hwoarang_t4]

yea bout 3 hr i guess. but then again it take 3 hi 2 make it so its kinda up 2 u

For any Hammerdin to be at least decent, you need to have 125%FCR. I suggest you do this:
Circlet +2 pala 20%fcr +mods
HOTO
Enigma
Zaka
Arach
Magefists
Treks
Amu +2 pala 15%fcr +mods
fcr ring w/ mods
SOJ

Obviously anni + torch are nobrainers nowadays. I assure that with this setup you will be kicking a lot of ass. Also, since you are not going for max block, you could substitute Zaka for Spirit (i.e. Vortex +45 allresi, 35%fcr)
so you can use Shako and 2xSoJ, etc. Just play around a little, but it's absolutely vital that you hit 125%fcr.

FHR to aim for would be at least 48% (86% would be ideal), so if you use Spirit, you're already a way there.

If your merc dies, you have to reequip his Insight so that the aura will start working once again.

And like somebody mentioned beforehand, definately get CTA.

[Frenzyak]

hm, i know for sure my insight is on cuz i re-equpt but i still run out of mana while teleporting

[Loits]

Get nightlight mod, skill meditation and you can teleport with meditatin on. Nightlight mod allows auras to be used under the left skill.
