Docks Too Easy , Lunaris Too Hard: Where To?

Thanks a lot... just lost my HC character in the docks last night.

Make a good use of Endurance Charge and you'll be fine mate . I think LT is easy

Not since they upped it. Are you suggesting it?

I tried the Sewers Aqueduct a bit. The area seems too small, and the alchemists make it risky. It has the right level, however.

I am suggesting it. Like everyone else has mentioned you need ele resist in order for it to be worth your while but it will probably be much easier for you than Solaris. My $ .02

Except for chaos damage endurance charges make everything easy.

Are you plaing solo or in gorup?

Catacombs is much better than docks now that it's level 67. I advise taking two things:

1) A flask that will dispel cold effects. Many of the mobs in the catacombs use cold attacks, melee and ranged and often with extra projectiles. Even with 80% cold res, you will get frozen sometimes.

2) Corpse detonation skill gem. The catacombs can be awash with necromancers, so much so that on some instances you can get 2 of them in the same room. It's much easier to melee them if you can explode corpses to prevent the necromancers reanimating them. They hide round corners, so it can be a problem fighting packs of constantly reanimated mobs to get to the necromancers.

The other hazards are undying cultists because they are extremely fast and some of the spiders because they use viper strike (i.e. chaos damage), but they shouldn't be too much trouble.

Drops are OK, especially if you're vendoring for shards. Lots of magic and rare items - you may even find equipment you can use or trade. There's a fairly decent possibility of a large chest in an alcove off the big room.

i think some said it but you might just want to do basic 66 maps, just roll something on them you have no problem doing and you should be set.

Hmm...my cold resist is up to 82% (i ran purity aura) and I am still frozen on the frequent basis, am I doing it wrong? Cause my friend have the same resist did not get frozen as much as I do. And yeah I have heat flask, drink once to dispel, got froze on the next hit, its freaking annoying.

Its based on your Life. You're less susceptible to status ailments as you gain more life.

I'll just say catacombs are really bad for melee characters, the cold spell shotgun effect is annoying and slows the killrate too much. I prefer Lunaris as melee.

@Y135lc
You might need more life to not get frozen as much.

Edit: Too late.
