help my javazon!

I am rather new at Javas, and I need help with stat placement. My play-style is currently melee with a few LFs thrown in, but I am starting to enjoy standing back and LF them to death. I like to PvM, not PvP. I am unsure what I should have for base stats on my Str and Dex. Here's what I have so far:

lvl 56

(5 UNSPENT STATS)

STR: 80 (105)

DEX: 120 (145)

VIT: 140 (150)

ERG: 15 (25)

PASSIVE: 6 TOTAL

CRITICAL STRIKE: 1

DODGE: 1

AVOID: 1

EVADE: 1

PENETRATE: 1

PIERCE: 1

JAVELIN AND SPEAR: 55 TOTAL

POWER STRIKE: 10

CHARGED STRIKE: 10

LIGHTNING STRIKE: 11

LIGHTNING FURY:20

PREREQ TOTAL: 4

NOTABLE GEAR:

RAZORTAIL

The Mahim-Oak Curio

any suggestions? are my passive skills good enough if i find some +skills stuff?|||There are two ways you can allocate states for a Javazon -- you can choose to pump Dexterity to achieve max block%, or you can go for a pure Vitality build for maximum life.

If you have a shield with a high block chance (Stormshield comes to mind), it's probably a good idea to pump Dexterity. If not, go for Vitality.|||

after plus skills and while using razortail, u need lvl 9 pierce

before maxing the synergies u should max charged strike

its a matter of taste, but i play every javazon with a lvl 17 valkyrie. with lvl 17 she�ll get the elite version of her weapon and can tank everything, while u stand back and spam fury (or u might want a peace armor: 2 ama skills and a lvl 15 valk is built in without needing skills + cheap)|||Perhaps I should have gone into more detail. I want to have high HP while maintaining a decent block rate. Do I have enough Str and Dex for good gear? If not, how many should I have? Should I ignore Lightning Bolt and use the 19 skill points I would put there for my passive skills? Should I do that with the 10 Power Strike skills as well? Is Plague Javelin good without the synergy?

Current Javazon build

Alternate Build

EDIT: At about what lvl should I leave Nightmare? 60? 65? 70?|||ur "current build" has the prerequisite of u having very good gear available - ur end game gear. do u?

plague without its synergy is not good.

what shield do u plan to use in the end? stormshield, spirit, sanctuary, rhyme, faceted mosers, faceted headhunters, faceted monarch <-> jmod? this decision is the one setting ur str and dex needs: with some of them stating dex is futile, cuz of the low block rate, others have high str requirements. with the high dex ones u can calculate to with a little bit more than 200 dex for max block around lvl 90. with monarchs u need 156 str in the end.

if i were u, i�d skill like this:

LF, CS -> 20

valk -> 17 (inlcuding plus skills on the cast switch)

pierce -> 9 (inlcuding plus skills on the java switch)

rest into synergies of LF and CS

this will give u 100 pierce, a very strong tank besides ur merc and enough dmg.

u can easily mf and exp in nm till lvl 70-75, after that i�d go to hell|||I'm thinking about using a spirit shield, I have the runes, just haven't found a decent socketed shield. What kind of shield would you suggest for it?

For the skills, should I use the reset stat/skills so I don't have extra points in Power Strike?

should the build look like THIS?|||the one and only spirit base u should go for is a monarch: 156 str

with that base and going pure java u shouldn�t stat dex at all, cuz max block would take something like 3xx dex. for safety i�d use a lvl 17 valk. the layout of the skills looks decent, while it also implies u don�t want to use any skill gear? ur main concern should be getting as many plus skills as u can get, shile keeping resistances at a decent level. u should use a casting switch for the valk (something like spirit weapon spirit shield so u only need 13 or even less hard skill points in valk) she�ll be combined with decoy and ur merc ur main defense and u should stay out of trouble.|||Sorry to threadjack, but this doesn't need a new thread.

How do you deal with Mana using LF in Chaos? I need Infinity on the merc to break the LIS and am having major mana troubles.|||Quote:

A crapload of mana leech(cresent moon ammy is pretty useful for a java(15% ml tops)), or a phoenix monarch.....|||POT it as well.
