World of one shot and hard life!

Guyz,
Was wondering if some veterans may give us some insight on how they deal with being better at survivability on annihilus. Maybe some tips on what you choose to wear for life per hit, life leech, magic rez, physical rez and so on. Especially magic rez as far as i am concerned.
Every info is welcome!
Thx guyz

Magic res is the one stat the you really wont get until later in the game. In regards to other tips for helping you survive... it really depends on what your class is. I usually tend to life chant my weapons just bc that 300 flat life scales really well with battle orders and % max life. Resists, especially physical, are pretty hard to come by nowadays. What I usually do is chant my shield and helmet with a 10% physical resist enchantment. Ber runes work wonders as well. Do not rely on just defense for physical resist because the actual physical resist stat itself will always be superior. Regular resists are pretty important too, I suggest going for 90+ max res and a solid 150 stacked should help a lot. Also depending on your build , again, you may want either Life per hit, or Life stolen per hit(*Physical only). Mercenaries work wonders in the current patch aswell.. Get a good amulet and throw a Cthulhu Physical Thresher on him and he's almost unkillable. Also I've found that the slow target % stat helps LOADS, aswell as battle cry from Call to arms. Finally in regards to magic resists... theres very few end game viable items that give this stat.. my suggestion would be to get good roll string of ears and try to corrupt a stat that would make them decent to use in the end game. If you have anymore questions dont be afraid to ask :)

hey!

Do you have a pic of actual string, and do you think is it better then LK belt ? how many DR do you think is needed to resist to azatot nowadays ? (yeah i m sumon necro playing HxC willing to make soon inf cows)

Have you any clue about how life leech works against boss?there is a diminution but how does it works exatly ? does that mean that life / hit is much much more efficient vs boss (spoecialy with fast attack)?

In a more global way i wish i could try azatot soon, then rift run ... if you have any tips for survivability or build orders or wataver... Testing in HxC is not easy thing as you can imagine :p
Thanks :D

Sure: 813
Its way better than lk belt, i let you imagine all the possibilities!
Not sure about that damage reduction to poop azacrotte safe tho...
I let the specialists answer that and also about life leech.
Just be sure that you enter gently, to open the path safely.

I've actually tested them both on my wc barb, and I take waaaay less damage with lk belt than strings. Even corrupted 1 to all skills on my strings, and it still wasn't as good as LK belt defensive wise. I don't know why, the numbers don't lie.

as a summon necro, more than gearing up for tankiness you may wanna work on your mana regen so you can spam skeletons to prevent 1 shot aoe stuff. of course dying is a possibility but if you are so worried you can swap to those magic absorb boots and a few magic resistance items for the task and then switch back to your original build. also you can kite him away, tp then run back to the cow to open the portal.
