Demonologist Stamina

#1 Post by Darkgobbo »

Is there a way for demonologists to get stamina besides the combat veteran tree?

I am running into a problem where i get into long drawn out fights and i can sustain momentum against enemies. This was especially true against the withering beast who killed my latest demonologist.

Well gear mostly will fix all stamina issues, BUT finding the right stamina gear on difficulties lower than insane can be rough, since you're mostly looking for the randart ego that gives 2-3stam per turn(instead of the garbage .2-.4 stam egos you find on normal gear) so you need a fair bit of pink/orange gear to find decent pieces with stam on it and it still forces you to often keep subpar items just to fix stamina issues. I had similar problems on Archer, my first char was a normal Archer that always ran out of stam pretty quickly but once I rolled one on insane, it wasn't nearly as bad cause I got like 6stam regen with 2 items and I basically could spam every skills non stop without a problem.

If there's no other talent for stam(I don't think there is, I've seen a similar complaint before but haven't looked into demonlogist too much) then yeah that's basically your only hope. You could also potentially try reducing your fatigue(using heavy instead of massive armor/using fatigue reduction gear) to keep the stamina consumption lower but that will only go so far.

Yea ok that is what i thought.

Would be nice if stripped life restored your stamina based on how many enemies are around with bleak outcome debuff on them or something like that

Coming back to this since I started playing demonologist, there is in fact a way to deal with the issues although it takes a few levels to get there so early game is still rough until then. Once you have 5pts in demon seeds and can get the last tier of seeds(champions of unrok and forge giants), their ring seed actually gives 3vim and stamina per turn(not retaliate or on hit, just pure regen) as well as bloodcasting(fairly useless it reduces the life > vim conversion if you happen to run out of vim but I found that hard). A single one will fix most stamina issues. Can still use gear instead to keep your ring seeds free and especially until you get there.
