Whats is best for a melee build? Verdungo's Hearty Cord x Nosferatu's Coil x String of Ears?
There's no best. I have all 3 in use. It all depends on your build, gear and specific needs.

I would say, if you don't need that 10 ias or mana leech from Nosferatu's, String of Ears is considered the most useful for a Barb/Pala/Druid due to its damage reduction and life leech. And it can be easily upgraded to a Spiderweb Sash for additional defense at no cost of attributes.

I'd rank Verdungo's the lowest of those belts.

For low items I also accept: Perfect Amys, Ral, Hel, Tokens, Keys. Please don't offer runes lower than Pul (with the named exceptions).

The Firestorm provided for the Hellfire Torch gains sinergy with anykind of skills? Or just the '- enemy fire resistance' works with it?

i believe druid's synergies ( Molten Boulder, Fissure) and sorc's Fire Mastery will buff it
I don't think so. It does not seem to be the same skill as the Druid's, despite the same name.

They won't. It's a different skill, only having the same name as Druid's.
Surprisingly, Fire Mastery (or other sources of Fire Skill Damage) doesn't work either - the skill's missile has set ApplyMastery value to 0.

I'm currently running a dragondin, I'm still puzzled if most of my damage comes from fire or physical? (I run Conviction and Zeal most of the time), I assume it's mostly fire? and if so, does fire facet/ Defender's Fire increase my Holy Fire pulse damage? It has come to a point where I'm too embarrassed to ask this question Q_Q

+% Elemental Skill Damage does increase both your melee fire damage and your aura pulse damage.

Thanks for the reply.
But the effect "- enemy fire resistance" works on it? If not, what is the porpose of the skill? How much damage it causes?

Yes, minus enemy fire res works.

But the main value of this is to please the eye and show off that you have a torch to other players.
The damage is only relevant if you run through normal.

Is crushing blow dmg added to the attack damage or does it replace the attack damage?

CB is a separate instance of damage, so it doesn´t replace the normal attack damage but is not added to it either, so no deadly strike on your CB.

thx! onr more question - in which order is elemental damage reduction applied?

1) resistance
2) absolute mdr
3) percentage absorbtion
4) absolute absorbtion

?

mdr is calculated before resistances, so it is not very useful against elemental damage except for Energy Shield builds.
Resistances and %absorb are calculated at the same time, so the higher resistances are, the less effective %absorb becomes.

thx! let's make an example with Uber Talic's fire attack

Dwarf Star, pally, 95 res

4000 base attack

4000 - 15 mdr = 3985 (haha)
3985 * 0.05 * 0.85 = 169

shot back to health 3985 * 0.05 * 0.15 = 30

correct?

it's a joke of course with mdr, especially how low it rolls on rare items ("of negation", 6 mdr)

looks right to me, if the 4000 damage are acurate, an added rising sun amulet would negate the fire damage entirely.

Note that elemental damage reduction from Cyclone Armor can happen after ES. The order of appliance depends on the order of casting those 2 spells. "correct" order is first Cyclone Armor, then Energy Shield (to have CA being applied after ES).

Everyone seems to be taking this thread too seriously. Where are all the stupid questions? For instance , I just encountered Stone Skin skeletal archers and Stone Skin ghosts, and since neither of them have skins, exactly how does that work?

They lost their real skin so they got Stone skin. This is similar to when us old farts lose our Teeth and need dentures.
