Diablo® III

Please post here if you have 0 second zombie dog cooldown and would be interested in having people seek you out to play with. I will try to keep the first post updated.

I already have a WD following for MP7+ but could always use more (especially if you need a tank for MP8+ uber runs =)

Add me Warath#1889 - I'll be 0 second *IF* I can ever find a Mara's/SOJ/Skull Graps with -7 seconds. :D

add me (my profile shows mi mp0 fast exp build)

Versatility#1676

hit me up

Bump, added battletags of people who responded to first post. Warath, please post back when your gearing is complete.

I'm down for running high MP ubers with 0 dogs WD, here is my profile: http://www.diabloprogress.com/hero/heath-1914/Rihanna/28258185

I'm down for MP7+ uber runs.

Bump, updated list.

Heath, are you saying you have 0 dogs or want to party with others with them?

Bump, updated list.

Sorry, I'm wanting to party with 0 dogs WD's so they can feed me an endless amount of health globes (don't worry, my female WD won't get fat from eating so much and will maintain her figure/measurements!)

I just bought the last piece I needed for my build today, and so the tweaking begins...

I have a 0 cooldown gear set as well. Add me to the list :-)

Updated first post.

A couple things that has helped me with the 0 dogs build as well that I can share (in case you haven't figured it out yet):

1) You can hold down either Sacrifice or Zombie dogs while clicking the other that's not being held down so that you cast one and have the other on permanent cast (so that you don't have to click both buttons repeatedly)

2) I find it easiest (through hours of play testing) to have one mapped on left mouse button and the other mapped on a keyboard button

3a) In order to get the maximum benefit of sacrifice, I think it's better to have it be the one to have constantly pressed down, and you only need to cast dogs about once every 1-2 seconds. In this way you ensure all 4 dogs are sacrificed for maximum sacrifice AOE damage and for maximum health globe proc chance. Correct me if I'm wrong.

(It's counter intuitive during a fight as I find myself wanting to mash the key clicks but I find I can both survive better and do more damage if I space it out. I usually just count the number of pop-up damage hits - 4 in total - to make sure I have my intervals correctly spaced).

3b) Can anyone confirm or deny that if you hold down zombie dogs permanently that it'll recast zombie dogs before the last 1-2 dogs are sacrificed?

4) As far as tanking with the laser affix in the mix... it only hits things on the same horizontal plane that it is on. So in the case of SK+Witch Ubers there are stairs throughout. If you're standing on the steps with laser beams at the base of the steps, it will pass under you/not hit you. Also note that if you're on the stairs going down to one of the 2 gates and there is a laser at the top of the stairs, it won't hit you either even though it looks like it'll go through your top half.

5) Mass confusion- paranoia +20% dmg works on all ubers and works for all party members too (it's one of the reduced cool down skills for Tribal Rites). However, I believe it only affects the initial area of casting for 12 seconds and doesn't stick with enemies who travel outside of it. But it does affect them venturing into the area (just like how you'd get the benefit by traveling into the BBV radius).

MC does work on elites though and is quite nice to have them attack each other for 12 seconds. Considering it's refreshes in half the time as BBV, I've been using it over slam dance lately and love it.

6) I've found the best defensive affix benefit has been +Extra health from globes. I have around 45k extra health when I run MP8 ubers and it makes such a difference. I just don't die at all unless I'm being careless. I also have around 900 AR though which I'm sure helps too.

I have left anything else out?

Edit: can anyone confirm or deny whether you need 33 seconds or 34 seconds of cool down reduction to make this work? I have heard that there's an automatic 1 second cool down on dogs but I don't think that's true as I can continuously cast them.

Thanks for the tips badmojo101. I will try out mass confusion. I've never really liked the unpredictability of mass confusion, but if the dmg bonus applies to ubers maybe I will switch out BBV.

If hex's increased dmg applied to non-transformable targets then hex would be better than mass confusion for ubers. Does anyone know if the hex dmg applies even if the monster isn't transformed?

My set only has 33 seconds. I cannot just hold down the summon button without getting errors about cooldown; however, I can alternate summon/sacrifice just fine. I have rather low attack speed so others may have different results..

Looking forward to trying some of your tips badmojo.

Aw OK, I have 34 second cool down and can hold dogs continuously if I wanted to (although I'm finding with what I described it's better to hold down sacrifice continuously and wait a second to cast ZD, which if there was a 1 sec CD would force me to wait in order to sac all the dogs.) I'll play test this some more to see if it's really needed to wait to recast ZD for sac.

This thread is Michael Vick approved!

Thanks for all the tips. I love MC too but how do you tell it's working against ubers? Whenever I tried using MC on ubers I get a message saying it's immune and there's no swirling icon over the head of the ubers. Also I thought MC normally follows the mobs around and is not based on a radius, unlike BBV.

Does anyone know if sacrifice procs effects. I have both freeze on hit and IOH and as far as I can tell, they never ever happen. Would love to get some word on this.

Btw, scammer alert on "Qjmorris". Tried to swap which vile ward was in the trade command at last moment. Lol.
