User:Power WM/33 SS

Welcome to the page hosting the revolutionary 33/SS to replace the 55/SS or substitute for it when there are little 55's around.

General Idea

 * The "33" has 330 Health unlike the "55" which has 55 health. Instead of taking damage and regenerating (which can be overwhelming to the regeneration which can't do every single foe at the same time), this tank simply takes no damage at all and uses his regeneration to cover up for conditions.
 * The "33" is a primary Elementalist who gets to 330 health by applying two Superior runes.

Equipment

 * Galigord's Stone Staff is mandatory for this build.
 * Radiant armor with two Superior runes. One in Earth Magic, and one in Energy Storage. The rest of the armor must have a Rune of attunement on each piece.

Substitutes

 * Mending can be replaced by one of the following: Essence Bond, Resurrect, Rebirth, Magnetic Aura, Ward of Stability or Ward Against Melee.

Usage

 * When you enter The Underworld cast your spells in this order: Balthazar's Spirit, Mending, Earth Attunement, Stoneflesh Aura, Protective Spirit and then run to the stairs. When you reach right out of aggro, cast Obsidian Flesh to prevent the enchantment stripping that will be done if a Dying Nightmare spawns. If one does spawn, the SS should kill him/them first by applying Spiteful Spirit to them, then wanding them to death.
 * While fighting don't want until the last second to recast your enchantments. Also use Glyph of Concentration directly BEFORE Stoneflesh Aura while fighting, or it will get interutpted due to its long cast time and you will die.
 * When the Bladed Aatxes cause bleeding, your Mending will be the equivealent regeneration and you won't need to waste energy and cast Healing Breeze.
 * If you plan to fight Terrorweb Dryders you will need to cast Healing Breeze. Cast Obsidian Flesh before initiating such a fight so you can have a moment of relaxation until you have to start tanking them.
 * Coldfire Nights don't drop Glob of Ectoplasm so don't bother fighting them unless they are blocking a path.
 * Makesure to keep up Obsidian Flesh right before fighting near a Dying Nightmare spawn.
 * Feel free to aggro big mobs, but DO NOT aggro some that are ranged attackers and melee, you need to aggro the same time unless you want a hard job for the "SS" who will hate you for making him have to put on so much Spiteful Spirit hexes.

The SS skills and Attributes

 * This build is just to show the part of the "33" which I have designed. Your "SS" should be experienced and know his set of skills that he usually uses with a normal "55" his build is the same for you.
