Hunting setup list

created by koenvdv and supported by many

General information

Usage of the list

This guide is only a suggestion how you could hunt. It doesn't guarantee that it is the best setup for you or being the cheapest.

The lists is built to one hit creatures while using Smashing Hammer and Coordinated Attack buffs. You can leave out Coordinated Attack and change single items with better non set items (epic ones for exapmle).

Symbols have been added to show the setups specifications:

•  : The setup has the most damage you can get with Smashing Hammer and Coordinated Attack upto that level.
•  : The setup has extra defensive stats that can protect you from misses.
•  : The setup has no crystalline items.

Stats used

The stats are the non crafted non helforged stats. The eventual stats you will have during hunt will be higher because of your base stats and craft/hellforge bonuses. This doesn't change the fact that these setups have the most damage.

Damage calculator

A calculator has been posted by koenvdv to calculate total damage on google docs: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AvKDt0g_FfHAdDl6TndZcVNIaDhPMXpOUGFhNDJ5eVE.

Download it to your computer to calculate the total damage you get after buffs and relic bonus (excel file).
