+All elemental resist nodes

if you choose the right gear those nodes are waste of space

i run 4/10 uniques now i plan to run 6/10 uniques and will still be able to have tripple 79% and 100% chaos

if you run purity those nodes are obsolete

And your quantity bonus is?

Keep in mind that the game is about farming. There is no content so hard that you can't run it without at least 70% quantity bonus. If you run with 0% quantity you are playing the game wrongly, since this isn't based on PvP and you are an inefficient farmer with that low quantity.

For me the game is about killing monsters, not about storing items. If I use MF I use it to get better gear to kill monsters easily, not to find better MF gear. But it's just me.

There is no point of stacking MF if it hurts your perfomance. You would get more items clearing areas twice faster than with 70% iiQ

And to get items with good rools + iiQ/iiR you should farm for years

this guy's trolling, there's no wrong way to play the game. Its a cost/benefit choice every player can make. put ele resists in passives makes getting high resist rolls on gear less important, and does allow you to increase the other mods (particularly MF, which is the best candidate for substitution)

the game is not only about farming, its about gear. there wouldn't be a reason to farm if gear drops were so great that you never had to farm, so farming is a byproduct to getting yourself geared. Conversely, the game can also be said to revolve around killing monsters, as endgame you're not particularly in a constant search for gear to allow you to progress, but to be more efficient in your killing.

after all, it's not "path of trading"
Al resists nodes might be useful for 2-handers (nor ranged, they get a quiver). I got a bunch of really good shields I switch out depending on areas. W/O a shield, my resists drop to 60s.

Except that it hurts your performance so badly by having 70% iiq that you would clear twice as fast without it, it means that your builds sucks or your skill sucks.

You need to farm for maps and alternative accounts. Only people who don't need to farm are those that already hit lv100, have already best possible gear and have no desire to make an alternative account in same league. I.e: very few people .

It is very much "Path of Trading". No self-fund character stands a chance against those who have used trading.

Agreed, shielders easily reach those max resistances due to their awesome nodes and resist on shields.

I do the same with a plethora of blue rings, since my last few chars have been casters who don't need any added damage on theirs.

Handing having heaps of rings with +30% base resist and another +30%-40% resist on top.

And I've got a few belts and ammys with extra resists on them too.
