[Painshok]

100% damage taken goes to mana=god!!!
setup like this
soj-25% max mana +1 all skills
soj-same as above duh
frostburn-40% max mana
lance gaurd-15 dtm
howltusk-35 dtm
nightsmoke -50 dtm

theres 6 items to make you god, rings and gloves optional

this is how i do it 100% dtm, 90% max mana, and 85% deadly strike :lovedup
which is cleg sword lance gaurd and [place name of boots that have 20% deadly strike here]

off topic: 1st post
:madatu in standard make a poison necro, mines godly as hell, no one thinks of protecting against poison like xpac

ok now...explain to me this
why doesnt 100% damage reduce make you invincible and also you can get hit by magic

 

[Thirteen]

Damage reduce is capped.

 

[Bag]

Theres no way to get 100% damaged reduced, sorry to burst your bubble.

 

[LilAznRYDA]

whats the cap for dmg reduce?

 

[xXSMGXx]

75% in 1,09 and 50% in 1.10

 

[BigBled]

he is not talking about damage reduced. i think he is talking about damage taken goes to mana. and im not sure if that works. there might be a cap on that also

 

[ZConnor]

Doesn't dam to mana = you take the dam but it also goes into your mana??

That's how I see it, though I haven't had any dam to mana in months... so I can't remember how it actually went.

theres no cap
it works
no need for life
you dont take dmg from magic, i have many chars with this setup
and the damage doesnt go to both your mana and your life, just to the mana, which is easier to aquire than life

 

[Ntrik_]

there is cap... and yes dmg goes to both life and mana.

CAp is 75% for 1.10 and 1.09 i believe. not 50% 1.10.
Also, you do take dmg from magic, but there arent much magic dmg. Also, for dmg going to mana... it is jus % of attack dmg from opponent, and cant go over 75% i believe. (only for sorcs' mana shield). the things from items, they jus increase the mana i think by the % of the dmg.

 

[dP]

a character cant 'not die' unless its in open... who plays open anyway? its pointless

 

[ArcaneLegend]

Painshok...im pretty sure Blizzard wouldve changed it if invincibility was possible at all. if thats so effective, then dont u think SOMEONE wouldve thought of it long ago and everyone would talk about it?

btw...as i remember it, "dmg taken goes to mana" means that u gain mana equal to X% of the dmg u take.

read the text at around 6/7 of the way down.

 

[Cert]

thanks for clearing that up. i always thought that it went the other way around, and hence never used it.

 

[Strongest_Claw]

BTW Guys, Damage reduce is 85% in 1.09 and 50% in 1.10. Also, I believe that an invincible sorc can be made? I think I have a theory, but not sure if it works. Theoretically, you will GAIN life from physical damage.

 

[Draxthor]

WHAT ??? Tell me how !!!!

 

[ArcaneLegend]

um...dmg reduce is actually 75% in 1.09, not 85%.

about the invincible sorc...even though i refuse to believe such a thing, it may have something to do with energy shield, its synergies, and %dmg taken goes to mana items. go figure.

 

[JLeeAZN]

there some weird invincibilty trik that when u kill someone, and u stand on their "x" of their dead body, then they cant hit u with ranged attax, sumthni like that

~JLeeAZN~

 

[Painshok]

It does not work with sorc's energy orb thingy. The orb triggers first, then the dtm from the items kick in, so you still take damage. There is no cap for dtm. It's not invincibility, just they have to kill all of your mana in order to kill you. Since mana is easier to aquire, it takes longer to kill you.

 

[MaSteR~ClouD]

Little know fact any pro's form .09 with melee did this
75= cap for DR but when you get 100% dr amp no longer worked in .09 good for melee barbs/ melee chars vs atma zons!
in 1.10 100% dr doesn't do that anymore! amp makes you not Phy! but with 100% dtm means that it well make 3k dmg go too your mana but it doesn't redue the dmg you take sorry!
deadly strike 100% deadly strike means everthing you hit somthing it well do dbl the dmg showing it may show 3k but it really dos 6k KKKthx, What I dont understand is why in 1.10 how do you have the ablie to become invisab like /w hexfire.... You have to understand that too have the able to go invisabl it need to be coded in the prog like the other things (i.e almost invisabl with fade you couldn't do this in .09 but you can in 1.10 becuase they put that code in there)!!! but there isn't any reason for blizzard to make that code to go invisabl(i.e maybe for charg pallys they disaper) sorry to flame but your lying out ur teeth

Sorry! wrong. once your mana hits zero the engy shields poofs and all egy REDUCS the dmg you take like for everone 1 dmg it blocks you need to give it 2 mana once you hit zero its gone thats why its drains mana!! and you can have 10 life full mana and max tk/egy shield and you well still die the max it can get is 95 and thats /w hacks I belive I'm going to go look more into that
