Description

I know typically in the
Helm
people put
Perfect Topaz
for MF, and I've put perfect skulls in
Maul
for LL/ML. I was wondering as an alternative, in the
Helm
, would ED jewels work in those slots? what other useful things do people put into these slots?

Can be used to make Runewords:

So, with Immortal King set, there's a distinction here to make: will it work vs is it worth it.

In terms of the first, yes, IAS, ED and other related jewels work in the helmet and the weapon.

However, in terms of the second, Immortal Kings is outperformed by a huge variety of items, including the cheap and simple good ol'Grief and Fortitude. The
Maul
boasts a huge amount of helpful elemental damage that, while nice, does not scale with ED. Its base physical damage is not amazing.

So what? Well, if you're a low level character progressing towards endgame, or a cheap alt, or something similar, Immortal King is a great set. However, once you start getting worthwhile items, it is not difficult to replace it with something superior. Good ED jewels often cost at least
Lo
. So does Grief and Fortitude, both of which are superior to IK set. Junk ED jewels...I mean, why bother? Running MF in your
Helm
will do more to help you get superior gear via trade than a slightly higher clear speed from the ED.

If you say that it is worth it to you to use a certain jewel in your IK set, go for it. Just know there's probably better uses for your resources.

Maul

I got a basicly max stats IK set (Only lacks 2 points to defence in total across the set) But i still could not defeat
Über Izual
. So i was thinking throwing a
Um
rune into the
Maul
to get 25% to open wounds.

I dont have runes to craft Grief, Enigma or Fortitude.

The Other thing the IK set lacks are "Can not be frozen". But i dont think
Cham
runes are going to fall down from the Sky in high enough numbers for it to be worth it.

Maybe Duress on Merc 🤔

Raven Frost

ahh yes. Both suggestions are better solutions. Thanks.
Using a Ethereal
Atma's Wail
on merc currently. Duress are however a far better usage for my
Um
rune compared to putting it in the
Maul
.

I put an
Um
rune in the
Maul
and was able to solo the Ubers (and Mini-Ubers) in Singleplayer Solo Self Found with a Lvl 89
Whirlwind
Barbarian with full IK set and not much else (no skiller charms etc.). My merc kept dying, so I didn't rely on the bastard :D (Players 1 though.)
Note: It took a LOOONG time to kill them :D
