My luckiest char ever, I think. She only had 75% MF.
Thoughts
She is one of the most powerful chars I've ever played, hands down. She kills mobs and act bosses at lightning speed (omgwtflolpwn3d). Even the mighty Diablo went down in a few hits!
The rare unbreakable lit immunes weren't a problem either, mainly because my merc had a lot of crowd control with holy freeze aura and the delirium helm. With Infinity and Fortitude he did good damage and could kill them at a decent speed. I occasionally use the decoy, but it wasn't really necessary. With 2,3k life, 75% block, 50% damage reduction and stacked resists she can tank almost anything.
The only thing I didn't like was that it's a bit repetitive and dull sometimes. And damned boring until you get LF. Good thing RobbyD traded me a buggy 1.09 Ravenclaw. Thank you!
Plans for the future
Don't know. I think I will give her my Enigma and do some area running. She's a good candidate to WSK. I don't want her to teleport regularly, though; Zon's FCR are so awful.
Thanks for the reading!
|||Congrats on the mat 
Ligthzon is my favorite char I think, obliterating anything in her path. Cows are alot of fun with her, and she's very good at WSK aswell, but I always had severe mana troubles in there, thinking an MPK ring would solve that very nicely though. I think you would be better of keeping the CoH on her though rather than the enigma, it's like the perfect armor on amaz imo. But you cant go wrong with enigma either ofcourse.|||That's a strong character!Why use Lidless instead of Spirit on switch for the sheild? You must be FAM to use Fortitude and the character must have the strength for a monarch if she is using Stormshield, and Spirit would help you CtA warcries a bit more than Lidless.|||Thank you!
@purple: nope, I don't have enough Str to use the Spirit
. Remember the +20 Str from Titan's.|||Aha, that makes sense now.|||Mat'ed at just 81 with that kind of character? Travesty!|||So you do some Strength bugging to equip the Stormshield? 167-30=137 before SS is equipped. In general it's a bit weird of a setup, I'm surprised. No -eLR, so how were you doing with broken monsters? No IAS, so the FPA was kinda slow. I mean, give lightning zon Titan's and nothing else, give the moron 'Infinity', and she'll be fine. I get it. Still, no IAS seems like an unusual choice.
Jab is a nice support of your moron, when it comes to physical damage and unbreakable monsters.
Give her a try at cow running and Chaos Sanctuary.
I wouldn't be my usual arrogant self if I didn't do some sort of self-plug here, so feel free to look over at my frozzzenzon, which is an ultimate Lightning zon in my book.
Grats on the Zon! LF is one of the top 5 favorite skills of mine in the game, easily. I hope you had your fun with her.
--Greebo|||Well, I wasn't trying to build an ultimate javazon :P.

Yep.

No -eLR, so how were you doing with broken monsters?
I didn't have Griffons, and only one perfect lit facet. I wasn't sure about socketing it into the SS, so that's the reason why I haven't no -eLR.

I had neither +2 java/20 IAS gloves nor Highlord's. I could have used a LoH or something like that, but was a bit worried about the mana. Even with Frosties+SoJ+Shako+BO I have to drink a lot of blues. No buggy MPK rings :P.|||As far as broken monsters, I recommend a wand with Lower Resist charges as a cheap alternative to facets. For bosses who are barely broken and have a lot of hit points, mostly.
Yeah, mana can be tricky. You know that MPK happens on normal stuff too, right?
There are unique boots (I forgot which ones) that have 5 MPK. It also spawns on rare rings in 1.13c in small amounts, and as Aureolic prefix on jewels. Don't discount mana leech as a possibility either. Hoping mana regeneration and pots will do the trick is a bit rough. Any MPK will help from my experience. I had success running cows with as little as 8 MPK without much problems. Finally, low 1.07 MPK ring is worth like a Mal, by low I mean in the 20-ies. It's only the ones with crazy FCR suffix that are so expensive.
Hopefully that was more constructive

EDIT: @stephan
Oh, I know. Smart to mention it here though. Still big difference between 98% LR and 90% LR.|||Quote:

To avoid any confusion, LR will still be cut to 1/5th even if the monster is already broken by conviction.
