Hey guys, I made a Javazon and have some gear but my main problem to farm good are lightning immun. I really dont know what to do, did like 80 Hell Meph runs on my Sorc and not a Single valuable Item to sell... what should I focus on to farm? some strats etc. Thank you in advise!
Can be used to make Runewords:

Cows maybe?
In your case I'd say Hell Cow runs are ideal, especially if you don't have Infinity/way to break lightning immunes. Javazon's (lighting Fury) are practically made for it.
Doing Meph runs on your Sorc means you're typically looking for unique drops, whereas Cows is a better place to get runes or good base items (which the right item can sell for quite a bit of profit). It has great monster density and MF doesn't matter when it comes to farming runes.
I tend to farm cows as well as Chaos Sanctuary. Chaos became considerably more efficient once I got Infinity of course, it's still possible without it you just need a strategy to deal with the light immunes (either ignore them if possible, have a well geared merc, have an alternate attack, etc.)

And cows have immunitys as well...
Hell Bovines don't have immunities; only The Cow King does, and possibly other uniques depending on enchantments.
Your gear is good enough to farm cows, you can get Tgods, +2 java glove, Silkweave if possible. These 3 items give you 5 more level Lightning Fury and +mana EK. If you still are lack of mana, Insight on Merc will help.xCytriix wrote: 2 years ago Have Titans (normal) and Thunderstroke currently .

As for lightning immune unique cows, just ignore them, they don't drop really good items most of time.

I am not Javazon expert, what I am saying is just based on what I saw.
I do 1pp farm most of time, so I don't really feel Pierce must have 100%, one hard point in to reach 77% with gear, which is fairly good to take out most of cows in one or two hits.
For cow runs, only lightning res is must, others not THAT important, if you have good mana leech or EK, then Silkweave isn't a must have.
I see you want to sell sorc gear, I would say sorc is very good at MFing, even u can just do The Countess run, just for Key of Terror besides rune drop.
For me, sorc is supporting role to farm gear, rune, base and my Javazon is just play for fun.
One more thing, Javazon is really powerful but also need high end gear to support, as for sorc, basic gear can get you anywhere, full of potential.

Definitely go Razortail. And if you have an Insight merc you might not need Silkweave if you have e.g. some ML on a ring or the gloves. Then you could use to boot slot to get some fire res or some more MF (and/or you can use charms for that).xCytriix wrote: 2 years agoI have a Thundergods in my stash but my guide says Razortail for Pierce .

i don't understand how sorc is any different from javazon? they both encounter immunes in hell. cold/lightFlyhorse wrote: 2 years ago One more thing, Javazon is really powerful but also need high end gear to support, as for sorc, basic gear can get you anywhere, full of potential.
unless you have Infinity, you can't really farm alot of areas.
goodluck, and may the RNG god be with you.
Speaking of immunity, in patch 2.5 Ladder only (maybe offline as well), they introduced sunder GC, which can break mob's immunity down to 95, this make sorc MF much easier.rikus wrote: 2 years agoi don't understand how sorc is any different from javazon? they both encounter immunes in hell. cold/lightFlyhorse wrote: 2 years ago One more thing, Javazon is really powerful but also need high end gear to support, as for sorc, basic gear can get you anywhere, full of potential.

But my point is as long as you MF with sorc, you can Teleport anywhere, doesn't matter what gear you have, make farming relatively easier and safer.
Echoing others but bases are a more reliable source of income than uniques. Cows is definitely the way to go, you don't need any mf, so put on all your best gear and have a party. I would replace Shako with Valk Wing for example, the extra frw is nicer than the mf for this scenario.
In terms of lightning immune cows (e.g. the King), you either just run away or let your merc + valk tank them. I prefer running since a) there aren't going to be many lightning immune bosses in there, b) you're going to be running around like a loony anyway in order to herd the cows into massive, delicious clumps, and c) I prefer to go in without a merc or Valk because they tend to mess up my herding.
The only time you will face an issue is if you're unlucky enough to come across extra fast lightning immune bosses, these can be annoying. Otherwise you should be golden! Big packs of cows die so easily to Lightning Fury that you don't even need the Insight on your merc.
In terms of your gear, you want +skills. An amulet with +2 ama skills and other mods is going to be better than Highlord's for a lightning Java. Highlord's is really for your melee chars. 2/20 rare gloves or 3/20 magic gloves will be better than Laying of Hands. A decent pair of 2/20s will cost a lot but even a rubbish pair will do just fine. You should keep Razortail though.

there are areas with certain immunities. Just google those those areas - or walk through entire game one time and write it down. And then dont go to those areas.
When I begun on nonladder in D2R. I did like 5characters each with different purpose (sorc for Key runs, java for nila etc). By the time I was getting richer - I made plenty of characters which can solo every location.

In addition to what was already said, put Naj's Puzzler on swap and add The Pit to the mix. Vile Archers are lightning immune so you wanna just skip 'em until you get Crack of the Heavens and enough -%enemy light res on gear. Everything else dies in The Pit super easily, and the place is easy to reach. Definitely a great place to farm when you're sick of cows.

Thank you very much guys! Will try all your tipps today
