A noobish question: why do we consider the Carcass Jack the best body armor? I see only two relevant bonuses on it: increased AoE radius and AoE damage. We don't seem to need them: two arrows give great AoE radius and another 12% of increased bonus is quite small. What am I missing?

Why not ranger?

Deadeye's additional arrow allows us to drop AoE from the gem chain, while Occultist grants -chaos% resistance on enemies you curse, and increased chaos if you have killed a cursed enemy recently (last four seconds). Effectively, we're getting a free gem slot and free chaos penetration.

Damn, got lucky - Izaro's treasure chests dropped me an Ex on Cruel.

Can decide whether to buy a perfect Andy, or 2 entry level rolls of same.

I'm pretty awful at end-game labs. But, I've found some tricks to cope.

Each "trial" is the same.

There's a bunch of damaging stuff, most likely accompanied by some sort of device that damages you.

So, you'll want to first start off by destorying the damageing device.

Next, realize that all trials are trap-discontinous. By which I mean, that after each seqquence of traps there's a dead=zone, free of damage where you can stay and recover health.

Finally, note that traps deal damage as a percentage of your health/energy shield. It does no good to maximize life for the sake of surviving traps - traps will do more and more damage as your life increases.

Instead, maximize life regeneration as a percentage of total health.
============
To best survive end game traps, my tips are:

1)Switch out of magic find gear. Swap in life gear. Yes, you'll take more damage from traps, but you'll be better able to survive mobs. After rushing through some traps and taking a bunch of damage, that extra life may help you survive any mobs that await in the dead zones.

2) Try to take out any damaging devices before proceeding. Sometimes this isn't possible, In which case, try to stay out of damaging auras.

3) Once you move through a series of traps stop in a dead zone to recover health. In every trial I've encountered thus far, there's a series of traps, followed by an area where you can rest to recover health - this only makes sense. If you took continuous damage as you moved through a trial, you'd never survive.

4) In order to survive traps if you're terrible at dodging like me, boost your life regen. Level a Stone Golem, purchase a Shaper's Seed and be sure to take all the nodes in Serleth's tree that provice life regeneration.

If you do this, you can recover health quickly in dead areas and can save flasks for traversing through traps.

Thanks a lot for the hints. Then i need a while to do the last lab. now i struggle sometimes with merciless lab. As you wrote izaro sometimes onehit me and sometimes i dont loose life in the battle with him. With normal traps i had no problems i dont know the uber traps.
Is there a page with the izaro combinations and why some are so extremly deadly? I dont understand the mechanism behind.
But your hints will help me to be patient respective to the uber lab.

thanks a lot and have a nice weekend.
