Breast Plate and Light Plate are your best options, though Light Plate has a higher quality level (35) and may be harder to find around your level. Since Stealth offers no additional Defense, you want the best defense you can get on a Light-weight armor. Best Socketed Item: Breast Plate, Light Plate.In this case, try to give him the most defensive armor he can handle (beware of strength/dexterity requirements as well as level) since this isn't very protective. The only Mercenary that would benefit from Stealth is the Act III Desert Wolf mercenary, since this is a caster. Just try not to get hit, because this Runeword doesn't offer you much protection beyond the native defense of the armor itself.ĭruid Build Guides Necromancer Build Guides Sorceress Build Guides This next section will discuss what classes and specs can make the most out of Stealth, whether you should consider using Stealth with your Mercenary follower, what base items to consider, and where to acquire Runes.īest Classes and Specs for the Stealth RunewordĮlemental Druids, Necromancers, and Sorceresses are the main beneficiaries of Stealth, due to the caster-friendly traits and added mobility through Faster Run/Walk. Runewords vary on their suitability for different classes and specs, as well as utility for the various Mercenaries.
Barbarians, Shapeshifting Druids, and Paladins will have little to no interest in Stealth. It's a middling choice for an Amazon or Assassin, since it lacks Increased Attack Speed (Faster Cast Rate does nothing for arrows, javelins, or traps), although the mana regen, faster run/walk and faster hit recovery are decent. While this makes this armor less than attractive to classes that are likely to get hit, the traits are very good for caster classes such as Elemental Druids, Necromancers, and Sorceresses. This is typical of low-level Runeword armor you don't get general Enhanced Defense on any until level 37. Stealth's major shortcoming is that it has no added defense of any kind, other than the 30% Poison Resist and Faster Hit Recovery. It lacks direct defense so it's not ideal for melee classes, but it's a great early choice for casters. Stealth is the earliest armor Runeword available, and has a great mix of qualities that will make it attractive to many classes.
