[:1]So I wanted to do an MF character but I also wanted it to be fun.
I liked playing as a summoner druid so I thought I might try making an MF hunter.

Any thoughts as to the build?
basically was thinking. Arctic Blast behind some wolves/bear while they chip away at health and use Harmony on Bigger/PI monsters for the elemental damage plus having a Valkyrie as an extra meat shield.
I am wondering though in Hell will Physical Immunes be healing off of Harmony as it does mostly Physical Damage?|||Imo nothing comes close to a caster for mf. For an mf character I would either use hdin or meteorb but nothing else. All other pvm characters just best gear setup.|||Quote:

Re: Idea for MF
Imo nothing comes close to a caster for mf. For an mf character I would either use hdin or meteorb but nothing else. All other pvm characters just best gear setup.
What he said and why? Why? Why?|||Well why not? If he wants to do a different mf char let him do it. I started this ladder with a fury mf wolf and everything went fine.
Now for some actual input:
Arctic blast is bugged. (as far as I know) It does only 1/3 of the damage displayed :/
And I think 6x Isted PB is a waste. I'd aim for ~200 mf and not sacrifice killing power|||Ok well the idea was switch to PB right before the kill for the MF bonus.
Artic blast synergies with Cyclone Armor and kinda looking more at the chill rate for that
Still no comments on Harmony should I take it as no problems with that as a killing weapon?|||The harmony is not a bad idea as it provides various elemental damage while attacking at a distance, if you don't mind losing the valk you could always get yourself a gimmershred as many prefer them (besides you already have the stats to use them) and they have a lot higher amount of elemental damage then the bow does.
Also looking at the physical damage your outputting, your combining a might merc with a pride polearm, if you really wanted to go all the way you could get a beast weapon for the fanacticism as well, but that might be a little overboard.|||Have you ever tried a shock-summoner (werebear that uses shockwave to assist his summons). I figure shockwave works much better than arctic blast, and it doesn't require too many points. You could also grab a crushing blow weapon (Bonesnap or IK) for bosses. And i think Reaper's Toll might will work better than Pride on the merc.
Good luck to you whatever you do!|||Quote:

Use the equipment you have and keep a Beast Zerker as primary. Swap a Soj for a Raven and Perhaps BK for a Wisp(MF). MF chars have a kill attack, that's why they are effective. This build will give you some CB, + skills to the ones you need and will get you through hell with your riches to be gathered. I'm taking it for granted that you know to get a Gheeds, 1 x SS/lifer and MF and Life sc's. Not a lot of Stats and no high reqs - so plenty of points for vitality.
I haven't heard anything about what level you are or how well your char is doing with this gear. The Shockwave will slow down monsters and fantasm/FC will help you and griz polish everyone off. You will kill fast enough and find alot of goodies. Cold Merc with Infinity? Probably would make you unstoppable.The Merc you have will stomp with the Fant Aura lol.
Appears to be a great PVM setup with the gear you have except for getting a Beasty. The 4K fire damage and AR won't hurt either. This is just what I'd call fun MF'n.

I am looking at this open minded. Above is "Just an Idea" I had - i.e. haven't tried it.
My second idea was using Last Wish PB --lol!!! For the McGiver effect of CTC's - actually I think it would be good uses Fade because you have only 8 DR with COH. Lifetap 2. Fury/Summoner with LW PB - heck it would work!
Edit: My 3rd Idea: Ber'd Azurath PB - sounds weird but it would work nice. Mine is shael'd but I think it would add to his char Ber'd
Last Wish 6 Socket Swords/Hammers/Axes
Jah + Mal + Jah + Sur + Jah + Ber
6% Chance To Cast Level 11 Fade When Struck
10% Chance To Cast Level 18 Life Tap On Striking

+(0.5 per character level) 0.5-49.5% Chance of Getting Magic Items (Based on Character Level)|||If you have never played an FC Bear don't advise expensive weapons that are slow as heck.|||I've played FC Bear plenty.
I haven't played MF bear any.
Constructive is trying to give a good suggestion - not dis'n others - you get an A for bad manners
40ias and Fantasm(26 ias) - not a wep to be ashamed of and would definitely do the trick.
I have used a BOTD PB - yep and that works. I just never get into 6 shael garbage when you can have good stats on a wep. But the guy needs a good wep with just some CB and some good stats. Beasty fits the bill and does it with style. And Fantasm with a Griz and Merc - it just keeps getting better and better and plus to the 2 exact skills you need - oh yeah! and CB - come on - not everything on one wep - impossible - that's why I pasted the stats above man!!
The main goal of his char is MF. So only changing the weapon and leaving his MF alone is the best option. The suggestions above only add to what he already has. He could actually respec and use the bow in Bear Form if he wanted - it's his choice. But it wouldn't be as good as Beasty. I don't think if he Ist'd helm and shield and 6X PB and put together some good MF equipment that he's poor. Trading the bow for the beast - yep you miscalculated that - It's definitely within his grasp. I'm the 2nd guy on here to say Beasty!!!! Rock the Casba!!!!
And if the guy really wanted one - I have one for him. Yep a wep - not bad manners. You might notice that we're on the same realm and your SP OMG - I can't stop laughin. It's not you really.... OK - it is.
BTW - long day at work - four twelves and today is my Fri. But 3 Day weekend and then vacation next week - bike trip to the ocean on my VTX1800R - heck I need a break if I'm this cynical.
