What's a good spear for an amazon? I want to have one on swap for my javazon, in case I run out of Javelins.

Hi unrealshadow13,
My level 85 lightning fury javazon applied the same tactics as you, and for a long time. I used Lycander's Flank for the switch, see its stats at the Arreat Summit. Lately however, especially in 1.10, I find that jab with slvl 1 is really kind of slow with lycander's. I ended up using upgraded Titan's all the time, until I found a Demon's Arch, which is now my weapon of choice, because of the heavy elemental damage. Back to the question: If you can't get your hands on a better Unique, you will always want some ias on the spear, enhanced damage, leech, +attackrate (itd if possible) and perhaps a bit cold damage. A perfect rare could have the following prefixes: Fool's: + (16.5 Per Character Level) 16.5-1633.5 To Attack Rating / + (0.5 Per Character Level) 0.5-49.5 To Maximum Damage (Based On Character Level) Cruel: +201-300% Damage Master's: +151-250 to Attack Rating, Damage: +101-150% and suffixes: Winter: Adds 5-9 Minimum and 16-50 Maximum Cold Damage - 5 sec Duration Lamprey: 8-9% Life Stolen Per Hit Quickness: 40% Attack Speed Increase I don't know if some combinations of these mods can't spawn together, though. Just know that this would be a great melee weapon for a spearazone. For these technical details please refer to someone else. Perhaps this helped a bit... Greetings, Fragbait Quote:You cannot pass...

What is a demon arch?
Can you upgrade Titans in non-ladder? Edit: Oh I know what Demon Arch is... I even have them in my stash... I always called them balrog spears but whatever... LOL

Hi Adeyke,
Yeah, I knew that there were some restrictions. Thanks for clearing that up. I copy/pasted the Winter suffix from the Arreat Summit, however. If that's wrong, maybe you'll send them word that they should change it? I mean, some time went by since their last site update anyway. Greetings, Fragbait PS: man, you're fast. Which mpq-viewer do you use? Quote:You cannot pass... I am a servant of the Secret Fire, wielder of the Flame of Anor. The Dark Flame will not avail you, Flame of Udun. Go back to the shadow.

The AS affix pages are so thoroughly accurate that it would be easier to rewrite it from scratch than to fix the errors on there. And there are already more accurate sources of affix information (like this and this).
I have all the text files from the MPQ extracted, so I don't have use use an MPQ viewer. I just load the relevant file with MS Excel.

Hi adeyke,
Quote:I have all the text files from the MPQ extracted Sure enough, but how'd you do that? Didn't you use a MPQ-viewer for that? I only have mpq-view 1.1b, and I think it's pre-1.10. Can you link me a newer one? Thanks! Greetings, Fragbait Quote:You cannot pass... I am a servant of the Secret Fire, wielder of the Flame of Anor. The Dark Flame will not avail you, Flame of Udun.

Some werid thing that smart modding people types look at to see how much damage stuff does and such. It's a kind of file.

MPQ is the data archive format used by Blizzard. The MPQs contain all sorts of information the game uses.
Generally, when people refer to MPQs, they're specifically talking about the tab-delimited text files in them. |
