What rings and gear to use in conjunction with the Immortal King set?

What rings and gear to use in conjunction with the Immortal King set?

First off, yes I am aware the IK set is not "good", but I just find it very fitting for a barbarian, and I might end up using it regardless. To make this even weirder, I actually plan to go Concentrate with this build, as I can not stand Frenzy or WW.

But I am not sure where the weak points are, and what can be remedied with socketed jewels/runes and what rings/stats would be best to focus on.

The maul has 40% IAS and 35-40% CB, but generally speaking the set seems favor defensive stats over offensive.

How do you trade for more than 40 items at a time?

Occasionally I see people selling item X in exchange for 50 Perfect Amethysts. But the trading window only has 40 fields, so how is such a trade completed? By trust? Hoping the other person will come through and not cheat?

Do you enjoy that narrative chaos that is season 3?

It was refreshing for the initial episode, but I am finding this disjointed fever dream not to my liking. I get that is it supposed to represent the wild drug rush of a mental band, but it's such a deroute from season 1 and 2, and I find myself getting exhausted following it. I haven't even watched episode 4 yet, as I know it will be metally draining.

Does Sorc Cold Mastery only work 1/5 on sundered immunes?

If yes, would the runeword Voice of Reason be the easiest way to lower it further? (I am missing 4 out of 5 runes for Doom lol)

Should I invest hard points into Dodge, Evade and Avoid on a Amazon? [Lightning Strike, Spear, level 70]

I usually stick to ranged classes, but this spear women is quite awesome. I am, however, finding it hard to balance magic finding with defense and resistances.

I have a fortitude armor, but the repair costs were atrocious and I had to hand it to my merc. I am currently using Smoke in Archon Plate for the sake of resistances mostly. The rest consists of thunderstroke, laying of hands, high lords, random resist ring, raven ring, gore rider and mithril coil belt. My helmet is just a 3 socket magic finding thing.

Killing speed is more than fine and I can even kill lightning immunes with Stab Jab. And I can also survive in Hell, but it feels kinda dicey at times and I would like to be more tanky as a melee character.

Should I invest more then 1 point into Dodge, Evade and Avoid?

What is a budget way to deal with physic immunes as a Zealot?

Apart from running away that is.

Baranar's Star on swap? Or lawbringer and hope decrep will break immunity?

Oath or Mania for Act 5 frenzy merc?

I want Lawbringer on the offhand for certain, but I can't decide between Oath in a Balrog Blade or Mania for level 1 Fanatism.

Any advise is welcome.

(I don't have runes for higher level items.)

What is the lowest level armor base for a Fortitude you could justify?

It's primary for my merc, but I won't be using an eth, as I might use this myself at some point.

The only 4 socket armor I currently have, is a Dusk Shroud and a Loricated Mail, and both are in the 4xx defense region. It would be a shame to use a Lo on this right?

584 hours played and the highest runes I have found are 2 x Vex

Is this normal?

I can make my way through hell and create some low level rune words, but it feels like end game gear is a myth. I was hoping at this point to have, at least, the basic stuff to break some immunities. I am not talking about something like Infinity as that will literally never happen, but just some way of dealing with immunities that isn't overly frustrating.

And yes I am aware there are other ways of dealing with immunities, and I have been forced to use most of them, but... sigh... the game just feels unreasonably gated at this point.

/rant over, sorry

Edit: Thank you guys, but this type of grind is not for me, take care.
