Trying to decide which IK build

Archived from groups: alt.games.diablo2 (More info?)

i have done one recently without a problem i maxed bo whirlwind mace mastery
and nearly got shout maxed mana burn is a pain but i have a hole belt of
full rejuves (1point in find poition) but most of the time if i whirl and
they steal my mana by the time the whirl is over i have stolen enough mana
to go straight back though. my self i rely on mana and life steal to keep me
alive most of the time i have like nearly 30% life steal amd 3.1k hitpoint
killing bosses is not a hassel just drink a pot or two it realy does not
both me i find more all the time
well it works for me good luck
