I just wish Chaos Flasks (or really resist flasks in general) had a longer base duration even if they're useful regardless.	Posted by VolcanoElixir#1787 on Feb 18, 2013, 3:27:25 PM Quote this Post

And if it isnt correct, then why shouldnt it be? because avoiding damage in this game is very hard. i fully support glass cannons in games where you can flip, dodge, dive and ninja your way around. but saying "im not going to get hit" in this game, is foolish. And THAT is the problem...it should be perfectly possible to avoid getting hit, with the right tools / skills. The game lacks them, with the possible exception of a pure summoner build, but that is hardly Glass Cannon by any stretch. Did you know level 91 is the halfway point to level 100? This means that a softcore character dying ONCE at level 85+ can lose many days of progress.

I didnt ask for his help at all, and it is irrelevant to my build because I wanted CI too. " Dudebag wrote: you can use added lightning into your cold spell Right, but its probably not enough damage to apply shock.

Why? Casue your bad... my bow ele templar was "glass cannon" and I did fine up till merci vaal when he 1 shot lasered me. So even at that point max res and 2.5k life is not enough to not get 1 shotted. So you CANNOT build as a pure glass cannon for end game or you will die.

And I could care less about dying to Vaal, thats not important if I can farm XP elsewhere. And wrong on what you think GGG said, the developer response I had via Email said that they think that glass cannons are viable in the end game.
