When I registered here, Dec30th, little did I knwo forum was gona restet or I would have waited another day. Anyway I did manage to copy a guide that I am attempting to build up. Keep in mind this is not my guide but someone else who posted it here previously. That being said. Here are the stats.

for javelin skills
jab 1
power strike 1
poinson javelin 1
lightning bolt 1
charge strike 20 max 3rd
plague javelin 1
lightning fury 20 max first
lightning strike 20 max 2nd

passive/magic spells
basically everything in here is 1 except for pierce which should be bult up enough to get 90-100% preferrably 100%
And now the only question left is this, and I've heard many opinions.
velkryi or lightning bolt...
both have their advantages and weaknesses, 1 if you go with the bolt, you have less attacking for those LI critters, if you go Velkyrie, from what I've read in the heat of a huge battle she gets killed easily.
on the up side to each. Lightning bolt would be huge for single target hits with all the bonuses it gets and gives to and from other lighning abilities. as for the velkyrie, she would stall and take a few hits in battle while you cast lightning fury from behind. That and shes a great friend for those LI type critters.
From there I guess the choice is yours.

As far as charactor statistics,
build the strength and dex just enough to carry your equipment. the rest should go to vitality.
nothing to energy and heres what I found doing that.
So far, im at level 24 and put no points in energy as of yet and from what im seeing, I dont intend to. Useing leach and gain type equipment I rarely run out of mana, but incase you do burn threw your mana, pack a potion or 2 on your belt, can never run out, because as many know on the field those critters drop alot of potions.
Now for the equipment,
this part im not sure if i managed to get here or elsewhere.

Helmets, should try to find a griffons eye or shako

Body Armor, Chains of Honor or Archon plate

Weapons, Ethreal which are upgreaded from titans, or Thunderstroke.

Belts, thundergod's vigor or Razontail

Shields, Super Monarch or Spirit monarch.

Gloves, Laying of hands or anything that might give jav+ skills

Boots, I don't know of anything real specific yet but anything thats real good is ok

Rings, Here is where the leaching comes in, Stone of Jordan, Manald Heal (if you find yourself runing out of mana often), Rowen Frost, Bul-Kathos' Wedding band. any of those would be fine.

And finally Amulets, Mara's Kaliedscope or anything with jav+ skills

Again this isnt a guide I made up, Just one Ive looked at and figured I would try out.

Have fun and happy Gaming

Well, for starters, a +2 or +3 to jav skills and 20 ias gloves for javazon is a must. Next, your boots, best choice that I have seen in other guides is definately Sandstorm Treks.
Raven n Soj for rings is a good combo.
Maras or Highlords for ammy.
Really what it comes down to is if you are making a PVM or PVP javazon. You should add the alotted points for synergies also.
Sorry I had to add that, and I didnt know the forum would reset either, lol. There was a lot of good stuff on there.

SS is much better for javazon.

Like I said, depends on PVM or PVP, a good pvp JAVA should use (I could be wrong) a 4 socket 5/5 lite monarch. HELLA damage. Dodge and max block fix the rest.

Ravens + Bk is actually what I use, but I guess it depends on preference. Enigma can also be an armor of choice for Javazons, and as Madmardegan said, Stormshield is the best choice shield for a Javazon.

Well really what other kinda javazon is there?...they all use shields :p

On top of these suggestions I would also suggest you max charged strike before maxing lightning strike. The reason for this is that CS should be your boss and tough opponent killer while LF will be your crowd control. In this case LS is just going to be a synergy and not really that useful unless you want to run up to every monster to hit it with that skill but that isn't a great idea. I also think that when you post someone else guide you should really credit them for it so you should have paid attention to who they were.

Eh Belhemel he did credit the person who wrote this guide at the very top...

Yes I know he said someone else made it but what I am saying is when you rewrite or copy/paste someones work you should take the time to get their name so it can be placed on the guide.

Agreed :)


I'm gonna follow this build. I have everything except I'm gonna go for valkeries instead of griffon's because I play NL I can't afford it. Its worth like 5hrs...crazy. Also I'm gonna use a SS instead of spirit. I'm gonna try duelling with this character as well, I reckon she could stand her own.

You also (i dont condone cheating) but adding farcast to your build, because unfortunately 99%of javazons out there use it, and you will be a severe disadvantage without it.
Like I said though I dont use it and dont condone it but if your considering pub duels this might be an option to take.

well as i said for 1 it isnt my guide, and 2 i only wrote down the basics of it, to get into detail on somethings im not too sure on. Being that im one of those, as yall call it, noob players. but as always have fun and good gaming

Is Farcast a range hack? Java's are the only build I've seen using them...and yeah, a lot of people do use them.

To be honest, I have no idea myself. Im more into the pvm at the moment. So I wouldn't need to worry about the disadvantage of going against another zon using that ability.

The farcast mod actually has a few different uses. Obviously the java charged strike is most commonly used for this mod. The other additives that go along with this mod are a left click mod, where you can put ANY skill on your left click. Example; if you have a trap sin, you can put traps and teleport on right click and put mb on your left click (where otherwise you could not without farcast.) Probably best not to use the mod, but if your into bm duels you might research this.

Still cheating though...I don't condone this sort of behavior :)

prod689

Yes, it is not good. These stupid hacks are responsible for average duelers to become godly and make the rest of the godly duelers to look slow.

MadMardegan
01-07-2008, 08:31 PM
Yeah, I hate people who use hacks. This is getting a tadd bit off topic so lets stop stop before we get a warning ;)

Yes these builds are a lot of fun and can hold their own through just about everything (with the right gear). I'll be making a javazon guide and have it up soon.

Kinda hard to read, you should have made it easier for us to read.
Otherwise, nothing special. Below average.
