Still unsure about my 80 build and gear

Kupuntu - Sanctuary

Like the title says, I'm still having some problems with my build. Here's what I was thinking at first: http://pwcalc.ru/pwi/?char=15454d94b4c0d93a

I got that mostly ready now, so it would be just getting there and then I'm done. It has 5.5k HP (with 75 VIT sadly) and I couldn't use Buddha's at 80.

Then I decided to check how much HP I'd have with 5 VIT and 50 VIT. If I had 5 VIT I'd have 4.4k HP and with 50 VIT I'd have almost 5.1k HP. 4.4k isn't enough, but 5.1k is nice. Both builds would let me use Buddha's too.

I'm pretty sure I could afford all this, but not sure how long it will take. http://pwcalc.ru/pwi/?char=edb27dbf4818eb43 Almost 5.5k HP with 50 VIT, everything sharded with 4x immacs, refined to +3. I can also use Buddha's so I'm fine with that too.

So, I want opinions. Can I tank BH69 and some TT's with average cleric if I have 5.1k HP and 50 VIT? Or is it too risky to do? (I would only do that if there is no barb around). I'm open for different suggestions too. Money isn't a problem (I got a steady source of money, around 1.2m a day).

Most 8x clerics don't purify too fast. After pole's debuff you get 2-shot or 3-shot (with charm) with that HP. One thing you can do is get a barb friend to buff you before going in tho. As for TT, it would be hard to hold aggro from pets at 8x and also you won't be able to tank the bosses with strong magic without charm ****.

As for gear i'd suggest second one with slight changes.
Helmet of Pirate --> 81 3* with HP bonus (or ideally Warsoul of Earth but that's gonna cost)
Hermit's Cape --> Cape of Tauren Chieftain, best cape til lv 90 event one.

additionally
Attendance Ring --> Misty Forest Ring (if you PvP)

Yeah I was kinda afraid of Pole debuff. To be honest it's not like I want to tank, but barbs are not always that easy to find.

About your suggestions: If I decided to restat to 50 VIT, I might as well change my helmet. I'm mainly using it for +5 DEX, and if I restat it won't be needed. I might go get the Cape of Tauran too since it's not too expensive. I won't change my ring to Misty since I want extra crit b:chuckle.

In case I'm not going to tank, I think 5.1k HP vs. 5.5k HP is not that big difference unless I should have that much for Gamma.

Is there anything you want to suggest for me? I remember you said you could tank 69 and TT's up to 2-1 or 2-2.

Cancel poles debuff/aoe with shadowless kick, while its in cool down and the next aoe comes up use myriad sword stance. That will last you two aoe's (15 seconds). on the third one shadow again....rinse repeat. If you have two bms have the other one use MSS too.

This way is very effective. not only do you take less damage so does the squad. And it gives the cleric a little leeway in timing to get the purify off.

How hard it is to use that tactic? It seems that it isn't that hard, but you can never know before you try.

only issue is that with even a touch of lag or anythign under 1.54 aps you will not have chi/tiem to 100% stop his debuff

on caster bosses you want to stop

shadowless > smack >shadowless > 2 spark or MSS

have earthquake on geni for when you mess up

or take the cleric have them set up a ih ih ih squad heal purify macro as long as their under 13% chan it will hit every 11 seconds leavign you to tank 1 debuffed hit (works only for pole/nob) i find this usefull for the absolute idiots you run into in bh

and get the def level +1 attendance quest ring its amazign for tankign due to an undebuffable damage stop and high base+crit for aggro holding

dont bother with 1-3 withut 5k hp or snake will spike over your hp on his spell otherwise spam marrow on aur and chiteen and cancle drum/SB have alpha male and or earthquake for when SB random aggros and drop MSS as needed to keep clerics alive

spam marrow phys on ape and fats in 2-2 cancle and MSS wur stay purified on feng and astral and pup are just jokes

extra credit: for faster runs going to suggest you bring at least 1 rez scroll per party member

and every party member should have SOME way to GTFO fast so you can run mobs

how to run: 2-2- phys mob hall...just run right though hit TE on a geni when you get to wur phys mobs will be reset and you party members can get past him easy on their own

after ape hard way = wop or shell apoth maq marrow and run likea barb and pray while spaming heals and hp food

after ape easy way = kill to hands maq marrow adn sprint to tele bolshi head back stun mobs go into tele

1-3: start = run through statues roar at bone ranger jump ledge

runners hall..you cant run this just kill through

hall to twilight lich alter maq WoP or shell apoth run it will hurt like hell drop roar if you can on the bone rangers and at least one archer together

phys mob hall...why are you skipping this these mobs drop pages out the **** gather aoe to death...or just run to SB
