Overall its of course more expensive, if you want it to be as good or better than treachery. Its just that i am tired of treachery after 10+ years using it and thought about other options. I thought about buying an eth Black Hades since its only around 20fg, which would (without the jewels if course) make it even cheaper then treachery. Where as you could go weeks without ever finding a Black Hades. Where as 3 socket armors and Shael Thul Lem take maybe 20 minutes of NM/Hell countess runs to get the runes. That's the main problem with Black Hades, it's not really an overly common item drop. You can make it really good with really good jewels, or it can be an extreme budget option with junk jewels that is many times harder than Treachery to acquire. More don't use Black Hades because of the cost of having good jewels. Using 15/40 jewels makes it really expensive, but also really good overall. the 15 ias jewels make it just as fast as Treachery, but less bulky than both when Fade procs. It can also be really expensive depending on the jewels you use. as feanur says, both outclassed by fort in most reasonable setups. if you used only 40/15 jewels that's 180 ed / 60 ias vs 180 ed / 45 ias (with -60 vs non-demons) but the black hades can have 2500 defense, whereas a 4 o/s can be hard to find ethereal at all and has a fraction of it. It's less bulky, but faster attacking, which is good to keep it alive for LL.īlack Hades is somewhat in the middle. a black hades has 3x sockets + 60 ed vs demons. Treachery is best if you need things like CB to proc a lot. Treachery and Fort have similar DPS over extended times but Fort makes your merc so much more bulkier it's better when the merc needs to stand and fight. If you use Reapers Toll or Obedience instead of Infy or Insight, Black Hades could match Treachery imho and help a great deal with immunes Treachery can help your merc to reach important offensive break points, but yeah overall its true. Chest Armor grants defensive properties and changes the appearance of the player. Depending on their rarity, Chest Armor can have random or unique modifiers that greatly increase the player capabilities.Except for the ias. Black Hades can be equipped by all Classes. +200-250 To Attack Rating Against Demons (varies)īlack Hades is a Chest Armor and Unique Chaos Armor in Diablo 2.
