Few characters have such a unique and strange background as Faruzan, a bow-wielding Anemo character in Genshin Impact. At some point in the past, Faruzan went missing and was exposed to leftover bits of King Deshret's power, which makes her live in the past. She's also a member of the Haravatat Darshan in the Sumeru Akademiya, which studies linguistics, semiotics, and runes.

Those who have added this character to their unit list may want to add her to their teams. Her Anemo powers allow for some powerful Swirl reactions, and being a bow user makes her great at ranged attacks. To power her up and maximize her potential, here are all of the materials needed for Faruzan's ascension and talent upgrades.

Leveling Materials
No matter which character is being leveled up, they'll need the same amount of EXP and Mora, including Faruzan. Here's how much in total: 8,362,650 EXP and 1,673,400 Mora, make sure you have that much if you want to pull her.

Faruzan Ascension Items
Being an Anemo character, Faruzan needs Vayuda Turquoise. She'll also need some Eremite drops and some other items from around Sumeru: 1x Turquoise Sliver, 9x Turquoise Fragment, 9x Turquoise Chunk, 6x Turquoise Gemstone.

Gemstones - Where to Find Vayuda Turquoise
This gorgeous gemstone is used by every Anemo character in the game, and they'll each need quite a bit of it.

In short, though, the major sources are daily commissions and fighting bosses. The following bosses can drop Vayuda Turquoise when defeated:

*Anemo Hypostasis

*Maguu Kenki

*Algorithm of Semi-Intransient Matrix of Overseer Network

*Stormterror

*Scaramouche (Joururi Workshop)

Local Specialty - Where to Find Henna Berries
While over in the desert, watch for red fruits that grow atop cacti. These are Henna Berries (formerly called Redcrest) and they are the local specialty Faruzan's ascension requires. They're pretty much found anywhere in the desert, but they grow in high concentrations around Dar al-Shifa. Unfortunately, as of the time of writing, there are no shops or vendors that sell this red fruit, and it cannot be grown in the Serenitea Pot.

Faruzan Talent Materials

Faruzan has three talents that can be upgraded, which will require the proper materials. This table outlines the materials needed at each level, as well as the totals for both one talent and all three at the bottom:

Talent Books - Admonition
The Admonition series is one of three talent book series in Sumeru. Faruzan uses this series, which can be farmed at the Steeple of Ignorance domain on Monday, Thursday, or Sunday.

Trounce Materials - Puppet Strings
It's fitting that Faruzan requires a trounce material from Scaramouche's boss fight, as she released alongside him originally. The Joururi Workshop is the trounce domain where Scaramouche is fought, and Puppet Strings are one of his three unique drops.

Blood Death Knights in the release of World of Warcraft: Wrath of the Lich King Classic were some of the most versatile tanks ever. There is a wide variety of builds that they can choose from as either the Main Tank or Off-Tank and by choosing to focus on Single-Target, Multi-Target, and how much mitigation they'll need.

Many of the talent builds for Blood DK's don't go all the way down the Blood talent tree and instead spread their points out into the Frost and Unholy talent trees. While a full Blood build can DPS, a Frost or Unholy DPS Build would be better for that purpose; in fact, they are Top-Tier DPS for the entire expansion.

Best Talent Builds For Blood Death Knight

The image below shows the most common build for main-tanking as a Blood Death Knight. It is a Single-Target build focusing primarily on damage mitigation.

Best Glyphs For Blood Death Knight
There are a lot of Glyphs that players can choose depending on the content they face when tanking as a Blood Death Knight. The three most common glyphs are Glyph of Disease to maintain disease uptime, Glyph of Dark Command to guarantee Dark Command will successfully taunt (this is crucial in early phases when lacking Hit Rating), and Glyph of Vampiric Blood to improve Vampiric Blood for times when more healing is needed, do not need too much WOTLK Classic Gold.

Stat Priority For Blood Death Knight
Death Knight Tanks have 2 main priorities when it comes to Tanking: Survivability, Threat Generation.

*Threat Generation
Generating Threat as a Blood Death Knight relies heavily on Hit Rating, as the majority of the damage comes from Spells. It is necessary to reach 263 Hit Rating for Special Attacks to always land. Early usage of the Glyph of Dark Command will guarantee that it will always land until more Hit Rating is obtained from better gear. Past this threshold lies the Spell Hit Cap at 446 Hit Rating. If there is a Balance Druid or Shadow Priest present they can provide an extra 3% chance to hit with Improved Faerie Fire and Misery and Draenei for an additional 1% with Heroic Presence.

*Blood Tank Survivability Stats
Defense Rating is the most important stat to reduce damage taken. The minimum threshold to guarantee that an enemy will not land a Critical Hit against you is 689 Defense Rating or 540 Defense. 400 Defense is obtained through the Defense Skill that is passively leveled up when taking hits, the remaining 140 comes from gear.

Stamina not only increases the total health pool but also increases the effectiveness of cooldowns such as Rune Tap, Death Pact, and Vampiric Blood. Armor is important due to the fact that Blood Death Knights cannot wield Shields to Block attacks. Dodge, and Parry are other ways to improve survivability too.

There are many endgame setups in Diablo 2 Resurrected Ladder, and with the Sundering Charms added in Ladder Season 2, some of the builds have shifted. More unique builds have become possible, while some builds remained strong or have become even stronger. Here is the endgame for the Frost Nova Sorceress.

Basically, the Frost Nova build requires at least 92 skill points, so you'll be done by Lv 80. However, it's not over, as you'll need to distribute additional skill points on Cold Mastery depending on how many additional skills you have from your equipment. If you've made -195% to enemy cold resistance, use your remaining skill points on Energy Shield or Warmth. The reason you master Telekinesis is that it's a valuable synergy skill for the Energy Shield.

Energy Shield is a unique skill in Diablo 2. When the Energy Shield is activated, all damage is filtered through your mana. Some damage will be absorbed, and only a portion of the damage will affect your health. This is a great advantage for the Sorceress as she isn't as tanky as other characters, but the biggest advantage of the Energy Shield is that you don't need to think about all the resist stats. The only resist stat that matters is Poison Resist, which drains your HP slowly.

Gears

Helm: Nightwing's Veil / Harlequin Crest

Weapon: Death Fathom / Heart of the Oak (KoVexPulThul) / Doom (HelOhmLumLoCham)

Shield: Spirit (TalThulOrtAmn)

Armor: Chains of Honor (DolUmBerIst) / Skin of the Vipermagi / Ormus'Robe

Gloves: Magefist / Trang-Oul's Claws / Frostburn

Belt: Arachnid Mesh / Snowclash

Boots: War Traveler / Rare resist boots w/ poison length reduction

Amulet: Mara's Kaleidoscope / Magic +3 Cold skill+FCR(+10%) amulet / Crafted FCR(+20%) +2 skill amulet

Rings: Stone of Jordan / Bul-Kathos' Wedding Band / Rare FCR ring

Swap: Call to Arms (AmnRalMalIstOhm) & Spirit (TalThulOrtAmn)

Cold spell Sorceresses share the same equipment build, as their goal is to maximize the damage of their spells. As the Cold Mastery skill reduces enemy cold resistances, it goes perfectly with the Sundered Charm: Cold Rupture. Due to Cold Mastery and Cold Rupture, the build is powerful even without the aforementioned equipment, but it is quite expensive to set up the endgame builds as the D2R Ladder Items supply doesn't meet the demand.

Stats
All stats should go to Energy as long as you can wear all the equipment. Since you'll need to equip the Spirit Monarch on your off-hand, you'll need 156 Strength, including all the additional stats from Hellfire Torch, Annihilus, and other equipment. You can invest some stats on Vitality for more stability, but keep it to a minimum.

Mercenaries
Act 2 Holy Freeze / Prayer
Helm: Andariel's Visage / Tal Rasha's Horadric Crest / Vampire Gaze / Crown of Thieves

Armor: Fortitude (ElSolDolLo) / Treachery (ShaelThulLem) / Gloom (FalUmPul)

Weapon: Insight (RalTirTalSol on Polearm)

There are several choices for the helms and armors, but Andariel's Visage and Fortitude should always be your no.1 choice. The additional attack speed and life steal from Andariel's Visage, and the enhanced damage from Fortitude is too big to ignore. Make sure you make a socket on Andariel's Visage to equip a Ral rune or a jewel with +30% fire resist and 15% attack speed to make up for the -30% fire resist.

Aside from weapons, trinkets are arguably the most exciting and impressive gear upgrades available in all of Wrath of the Lich King Classic. The combination of the on-use effects on some trinkets alongside huge procs (procedurally generated effects) on others makes trinkets especially memorable items due to the way they augment your character.

In modern times, you may wait to fire off some of your most important abilities until all of your trinkets have already gone off. One such example of this is Unholy Death Knights unleashing their gargoyle pet after all of their trinkets and cooldowns have been triggered in order to provide the pet with an utterly ridiculous damage boost.

Grim Toll
Grim Toll is a strange item during phase one in many regards. However, it is also one of the very few items that maintains its usefulness into phase two. Due to the way armor penetration works, Grim Toll becomes an incredible on-use trinket once more armor penetration gear becomes available with the release of Ulduar.

Until that time though, Grim Toll is a great trinket for any DPS that relies on armor penetration to increase damage in later tiers, but it's not necessarily the best trinket available at the moment. Consequently, securing this item early will pay dividends later, as it becomes a much more contested trinket.

Soul Preserver
Despite coming in at only blue rarity, do not need too much WOTLK Classic Gold, Soul Preserver is still the best in slot trinket for most healers in Wrath including Holy Paladins, Holy Priests, Restoration Druids, and Restoration Shamans. It only comes with a two percent chance to reduce the mana value of your next healing spell cast, but when you're firing off spells like a magic machine gun, it triggers a lot more often than you might expect.

When looking at this item, it's important to consider that a larger mana pool effectively increases the amount of healing a single healer is capable of putting out. Thankfully, this item is easily obtained from the last boss in the normal Culling of Stratholme dungeon.

Figurine - Monarch Crab
Yet another trinket that's fairly easy to get your hands on if you've taken the right profession is the Monarch Crab. This is the best in slot trinket for all tanks in phase one. If you plan on primarily tanking, you should plan on picking up Jewelcrafting as well.

Aside from providing a large amount of stamina and gem sockets, Monarch Crab's on-use effect makes for a great additional emergency cooldown. If we're being honest, tanks can never have enough of those.

Darkmoon Card: Greatness
A reward for handing in the Nobles Deck at the Darkmoon Faire, Darkmoon Card: Greatness is the best in slot trinket for the majority of character classes and specs, all the way up until phase three of Wrath. This is due to the card's availability in multiple forms that are useful for strength, agility, and intellect-based classes. The good news is that you can purchase one of these bad boys right out of trade chat.

The bad news is that they're going for anywhere from six to 8000 gold depending on the server and time of the month. If you are interested in picking one up, they are likely to be the cheapest right after the Darkmoon Faire leaves town for the month, as players won't be able to cash in their decks until the following month when the Faire returns. If you're interested in pushing the bounds of what your character is capable of in raid environments, you should prioritize grabbing your Darkmoon Card as soon as possible. It's no overstatement to say that this is the single most important item for most, if not all, classes interested in wielding it, better get to farming.
