noneofyourbusiness - 12 Jan 2008 17:06 GMT Is Blessed Hammers damage nerfed in LoD?
I have a Classic hammerdin with lvl 24 on the appropriate skills and his damage is in the high 8000's
My LoD Hammerdin has BH at 27, Concentration and Blessed Aim at 24, and Vigor is around 17, but the damage is barely 5000. It seems it will only get into the 6000's at the rate it's been increasing.
Anyone know the scoop?
BTW, I made a Spirit shield...took two tries to get a perfect one :/ I now have 125% FCR. Thanks for the slap on the forehead ;-)

Shiflet - 12 Jan 2008 22:02 GMT > Is Blessed Hammers damage nerfed in LoD? LOL, not even close. My new hammerdin does 13-14k, my old one(with less FCR) did 15-16k. Hammerdins are considered one of THE strongest builds in LOD.

Shiflet - 13 Jan 2008 09:43 GMT > What level are your skills at? Blessed Aim and Vigor are maxed(only hard points in these skills boost damage, so total skill level doesn't matter, just having 20 hard points in them does), Blessed Hammer is at lvl 43 with gear, Conc is at lvl 37. To test damage with a somewhat more easily attainable level of +skills, I took off some +skills stuff, and so at BH 32/Conc 29, my damage is roughly 8k. Of course, the funny thing is, even 3k hammers can still kill in smaller hell games...

I gotta find me some better gear :/

Shiflet - 13 Jan 2008 22:08 GMT > Holy crap...FOUTY THREE !!! Well, I've gotten lucky with charms, which helps. 6 pally combats on him, plus torch and anni, that's +10 combat right there. If I ever manage to find or craft the amulet I want(14+ fcr, +2 pally skills) I'll get it even higher.

I crafted a +2 pally +8 FCR and a bonus of +29 life, +16 mana, +6% mana recharge and +37 LR to boot. Hmmm maybe it's finally time for me to make a Hammerdin.
(For some reason this post ended up in my outbox. I hope I didn't accidentally emailed my response to you Shiflet. If so, please accept my apologies.)

Remember, the synergy only works for hard points, but the Conc boost works for the active skill level. IIRC, you should aim to have your combined hard points in BA and Vig total about 15 more than your active Conc aura level. It looks like you are a little ahead of yourself on the Conc, and should put the next half-dozen points into Vig.

noneofyourbusiness - 15 Jan 2008 07:46 GMT >>Is Blessed Hammers damage nerfed in LoD? >> [quoted text clipped - 18 lines] > >-- Roy L Well, my LoD pally now has points equal to or greater than my classic pally, yet my damage is still only in the high 5000's vs 8000's for the classic pally.
Could it be I got robbed and some points got "spent" without giving the actual level increase??
fyi, the stats are as follows: BH: 27 Conc: 24 BA and Vigor: 24 Damage: mid to high 5000's
My classic hammerdin has 24 across the board and is in the mid to high 8000's for damage.
Maybe it's time to retire this one and start over :(

Shiflet - 26 Jan 2008 04:50 GMT >My hammerhead last ladder had 125%FCR and did 18k damage :) May I ask what gear you used? Cause from what I understand, max possible damage on a hammerdin is 18k. And that requires +3 combat skill ammy and circlet, SoJs/BKs, +2 skills on armor, and HoZ. I'm curious how you hit 125 fcr without a 20 fcr ammy(cant get 3 combat/20 fcr ammy), or Spirit, or Vipermagi, or FCR rings...only way I've seen anyone get 18k hammers and 125 fcr is by using wizardspike gloves.

Still, I like the 8k range my Classic D2 hammerdin does with the same amout of allotted points.
Oh, and, Hi Mickey...glad to see you're doing better.
