Damn i shouldve tried this build, some guy offered me a botd thundermaul for my 234 gf and sojs and a few little shitties... I was thinking about this build but remembered all my friends saying it wouldn't work... And my friend saying he pwnzts maulers everytime...

Eth weapon, not the normal one.

alright..im trying this...lvl 13 currently, just screwing around using sigons for now

maxing:venom/fade/shadow master
thats all you need lol, rest is 1 pt, i might max cloak of shadows on a whim since there really isnt anything to put pts into

items:
earth shifter (looking for botd t maul)
enigma(i like to tele)
steel rends
vamp gaze or giant skull for knockback, crushing blow, and str
gore riders
verdungos
maras
dual leech rings or bul kathos, dunno
cta on switch

ill comment on this later, after i see if its any good at all

Cloak of Shadows is good for this build, because you don't want the enemies to get close to you, especially if you have no blocking.

You need AR if you don't have ITD...

whats good that has itd

Yea, I am going to put the points that I was going to put into BS into cloak of shadows, it hit me in math today.
It performs really great with the windhammer, I love the tornados. Baal runs are good too.

I think I'm going to build one in single and test around, some of the numbers don't turn out to be the same as what I've calculated.

You will prolly die, I can take everything in nightmare and I have full resist, but I still havent hell tested,but I know I will be able to do hell mephi or pindle.
But I have goten it up to level 75 without dieing beacuse I am HC and that means it at least SORTA works.

whats a non weapon with itd...and im gonna use nosferatu's coil and giant skull, for piercing and what i mentioned above on giants skull....wrong forum i know but anyone got a bonesnap or nosferatus on east ladder?

If you do it east ladder HC I can give you tons of mauls normal bonesnap uped bonesnap and a treestump thingy, I got the other things I used as well.

Why would I die? Geez. Testing in single doesn't even require getting my hands dirty.

I think he neglected to read 'single player' :(

Just so you know, I died just a few munites ago doing baal all alone some pally came in and lured a bunch of monsters into the corner, I died.
I am all around happy with the way the build happend, I will make another one after this palidin!

oh assassin, we knew ye well, but the bell hath tolled for thee

no big, im making this and will comment, along with sens hopefully

I blame the noob pally who is on my "Kill next" list, but not to play the blame game. Fucking pally leads all the little annoing bone kid type things with big knives at me and I have to go for the corner, the escape key jams DEAD! Not to greif I will be bak on my feet in no time!
That and I was eating jelly beans ^_^

No wonder it is way off. Two-handed weapon suffers a bigger penalty when you use Blade Fury. Precisely, 3/8 instead of 3/4. That applies to any two-handed.

I've finished building one in Single... I can upload it if anyone is interested.

mind u all misleading this poor pvm'er, rather than taking time and trying to explain i will do so with a guide written already here(aint mine, all i do is pvp):

Ha, I found a way to make this build kick some serous ass!
I would say this would dubble the damage. I should of thought of this before SCREW BOTD, this is better for the situation
