Hi gekko,
One quick question:
I know that weapon ias and overall ias are somewhat different. But Windforce already has 20% ias on it, so I thought:
Wouldn't it be enough to socket a shael, to get 40% ias and by that reach the 35% breakpoint?
And if that is true, wouldn't it be a wiser choice to socket a 15% ias, fire resistance jewel? That would meet the 35% breakpoint also, but I would have 75% fire resistance. If I socket the shael into the Windy, will it be counted as weapon ias? Shall I rather have Larzuk make a socket in any other equipment and insert a jewel?
If that doesn't work, I might be able to get my hands on the 'laying of hands' of my lvl 85 lightning fury zon.
I know that laying of hands is quite good, but I don't want to end up playing only in 'demon' areas. Moreover, my rare gloves give me ~20% magic find, ~20%resist cold, ~20%resist lightning, ~+5 dexterity, and +2 to bow and crossbow skills. Except the ias, I consider them very good, since my leech is sufficient. Shall I get laying nevertheless, regardless of what I socket?
Well, those have been a few questions. But they were quick! :D
