Decided to skip the first few days of ladder to push my S13 Javazon to 99. Honestly I never planned on making it a goal because 99 always felt like way too much grinding for very little reward
That said, the new TZ shard mechanic is such a fun/addictive end game loop that once I hit 96, I said fuck it might as well go all the way
Anyone else go for their first 99 in RotW?
S-tier Zones being Chaos, Cows, Flayer, Catacombs, WSK etc...
A few of mine below, can always get most of them even if joining game late.
I think this has been my favorite season yet both in terms of content (Tz shards) and RNG. I went the less conventional route and rolled Javazon, basically had zero good drops until around level 91, and then my luck changed for the better
Currently level 98.6 (trying to go for my first 99 before the reset) and have been very pleased with my RNG. Some highlights below
-Ber x2
-Jah
-Cham
-Sur
-Lo
-Ohm
-Al Duls'Mephisto
-SoJ (first time ever ID'ing one)
-2x Fire Sunder, 1x Cold Suner, 1x Light Sunder
Was able to trade up for Enigma plus a few grail items I've never been able to get before (Phoenix/Infinity)
How about everyone else?
Have enough HR to buy at least one of the following
-Infinity for A2 Merc
-Phoenix monarch
-Renewed crack of the heavens sunder
Renewed crack of the heaven is appealing because it would be a pure upgrade with no downsides (coming from a legacy sunder).
Infinity would be a huge dps increase but would mean I lose mana sustain from Insight aura.
Phoenix would help sustain but would mean I lose my capped resist and PDR from Stormshield
Current gear below
-Eth Titans / +4 Thunderstroke
-Griffins w/ Ancients Jewel
-Enigma
-Stormshield
-Highlords
-Rare FCR rings w/ resist + ML
-Horazon Boots
-Rare 2/20 gloves w/ resist
-Arachnid / Thundergods
-Cta + Spirit on swap
Also bonus question, I’m a bit confused on how much minus enemy resist Id get on the infinity. Some places say 85% and some say 17%
Thanks
