My shadow has 70% block chance actually with this shield when using Tempest shield, and the two clusters of shields near his starting position in the tree. Go for more would be a bit difficult.

Tough? A Ranger can achieve 75% block at around lvl 40ish without using that unique or tempest shield. 75% is not tough by any means if you're building for it. For a Shadow.. it's more difficult than a Ranger, but still doable.

I didn't say that it would be impossible, just a bit difficult, because you have to go in parts of tree, where you weren't go if you don't search max block ;)
Of course you have shield block nodes that are really strong on dex part of tree (3-4% each) and they allow to have high chance of block in endgame without that unique.
But for the first 30-40lvl this is a really good shield to use if you want high block, without focusing on it too much.

I recently found It has one more Slot and diffrent values than in this Thread listed

Anyone have a Hrimnors Resolve or The Magnate floating on default I am interested in buying them, contact Kekerpwnt.

If anyone wants it pm me

Looks interesting but I fail to see how this is usefull. Judging however by the trade forums a lot of people trade this piece. Anyone using it care to educate me how it fits their build ?

So it is now 67 Unique items after the latest patch?


And Charan is up to, what, 3 Unique items so far? ;-)

What the heck kind of build would use that? For a wand build it's got maybe half of a decent physical damage bonus along with a small lightning damage bonus, and nothing else. The caster bonuses are at best mediocre for a Lightning build, and at worst total junk. lv 60 Caster wands that are actually decent can get up to 100% spell damage alone.

This wand epitomizes the reason I think it's nonsensical for caster weapons to also have weapon damage stats.

It's the only way to get power charges outside of a wand build.

I'm not sure why you would think that the wand is crap. Remember that uniques are not meant to be generally applicable.

The high physical damage increase means that you'll be using your wand to attack. The best bonus is undoubtedly the blinding. You'll have a global 10% blind chance, but you have an additional level 5 blind, that should stack, for the gems socketed in your wand. Note that this also means that this is effectively a 4 socket wand for skill planning purposes. (blind is most definitely going to be part of your build if you have this wand.)

The spell damage and cast speed mods may be trumped by other items you have found, but that doesn't mean that it's crappy.
If I found a wand like this, I'd immediately start planning a build for it. I think it is awesome.
