The description is wrong. The skill is not bugged (afaik). 30 points gives you 15 avoid.

Ofc its for 1D9. Read my post again, I said illumination (where you get a very insignificant amount of damage for the hard points given that you got already like +1k from bane hunter, moonstrike and soft points in illumination /needless to say you rly dont care about elemental damage on melee sorc/) and spiral dance, where is bladestorm now which is the exactly same case - soft points give so much that the hard points have very little effect and are therefore wasted. Its not moonstrike only, its moonstrike + bladestorm from key/scroll/book/heart, as Iv said and spiral dance from astarte.

Has the Hammer of the Taan Judges been edited in 1.d9 RC?

Documentation says total damage + 1.5 per lvl but mine does only 28% at lvl 114.

It was edited in .99, iirc (could be .A9, too).

Having to research a build is not difficulty, but time consumption/spare time therapy, if you'd ask me.

Psst. When you're corrected someone about math, you might want to make sure your formula works for boundary cases.

Left as an exercise. Wink

This is a really cool quote.
'You can't kill the ubers tactically, they're too dangerous'.
It sums up everything that is wrong with D2.

The necromancer prior to 1.10 begs to differ.

I'm of the opinion that exercises for the reader shouldn't involve ones that invalidate your entire numerical argument. Razz

Here are the actual numbers given correct equations for a sample spread of 25 socketables and no AA% besides charms at the ridiculous measure of 2580 base stats.

Lahs AA% Stones Gain
25 195 0 5031
24 190 1 5076
23 185 2 5115
22 180 3 5148
21 175 4 5175
20 170 5 5196
19 165 6 5211
18 160 7 5220
17 155 8 5223
16 150 9 5220
15 145 10 5211
14 140 11 5196
13 135 12 5175
12 130 13 5148
11 125 14 5115
10 120 15 5076
9 115 16 5031
8 110 17 4980

Even then in this absurd border case, one can see that optimal number of socketables isn't full 'Lahs'.

Here is with base stats:
Lahs AA% Stones Gain
25 195 0 2145
24 190 1 2264
23 185 2 2377
22 180 3 2484
21 175 4 2585
20 170 5 2680
19 165 6 2769
18 160 7 2852
17 155 8 2929
16 150 9 3000
15 145 10 3065
14 140 11 3124
13 135 12 3177
12 130 13 3224
11 125 14 3265
10 120 15 3300
9 115 16 3329
8 110 17 3352
7 105 18 3369
6 100 19 3380
5 95 20 3385
4 90 21 3384
3 85 22 3377
2 80 23 3364
1 75 24 3345

It is honestly horrifying hearing some of the suggestions being made.

Laz understands mod-making and balance better than anyone, I really wish he wouldn't have to deal with some ridiculous requests by people who don't have the foresight to see the consequences of some of their ideas.

About 100% CurseLengthReduction no longer helping vs. Astrogahs CullingOfTheHerd.

I have seen it reported in this thread already but it seems there was no answer yet - or i just missed it although i believe i read the whole thread.

So i ask again - is that change intentional or an accident/bug ?

I've had the same happen to me. +1 attention!
