    BV League Start Suggestions

    Posted: 09 Dec 2019 06:15 PM PST

    I always wanted to jump on the Blade Vortex hype train (when it was THE meta skill back in the day) but ultimately ended up playing something else. So for Metamorph I want to finally give it a try (knowing that the League itself will probably have a lot of single target/bossing content). The thing is that I don't know which iteration of the skill would be better for leaguestarting.

    At the moment I've at least considered these options:

    1- Hrimsorrow Lightning/Cold.

    2- Pure Fire Chieftain.

    3- Triple Herald Elementalist.

    4- Eternity Shroud (this one is probably out, since it will be super hard to get the chestpiece).

    5- Variations of n1 on Trickster, Pathfinder, Occultist, Ascendant and Inquisitor.

    6- Poison Assassin.

    7- Some people use a 6L Ethereal Knives for clearing and a 4L BV for single target, but don't know about that one.

    Have you guys played BV? What kind of approach did you have towards the skill? Do you think it is a good idea to go for a BV league-start or is it better to just play it safe and go for something else?

    Thanks! _^

    Can I share a tree between ED\Cont and Soulrend?

    Posted: 10 Dec 2019 02:29 AM PST

    I'm always torn on ED vs Soulrend. Will probably level as one and wish I'd used the other.

    I'd expect the passive trees to be very similar, both skills being chaos dots wanting some aoe range.

    The gear might be different, but I rarely farm enough in a league to get the end-game gear anyway.

    Is LL Guardian summoner still ok?

    Posted: 10 Dec 2019 01:46 AM PST

    We felt Raise Spectre was too easy to get a third Spectre at gem level 21, especially with Necromancer's Unnatural Strength passive. The third Spectre is now granted at gem level 25, giving a more challenging threshold for characters to strive for.

    As a guardian, you can't even get 4 spectres easily right? 21 (gem) + 1 boot + 2 wand (hard to get too). You can:

    • have a +1 shav
    • use empower (and Idk how big of a dmg nerf that would be compared to a dmg gem, but it would be significant I think)

    Coupled with nerfs to the feeding frenzy and zombies, what do you think about this build now?

    Is the play to go CI with a +1 spectre chest? nvm you wouldn't get bonuses from guardian then... duh.

    I'm feeling Spidy Totems again and here's what I came up with.

    Posted: 10 Dec 2019 12:09 AM PST

    Couldn't find anything decent from 3.8 except a crazy Asian on YT with Atziri's Mirror. :P

    Input or your approach to Spidy Totems would be greatly appreciated!

    Here's mine

    Power Siphon

    Posted: 09 Dec 2019 04:11 PM PST

    Hello, my friends and I start in a private league for the first 20-30 days of league (so think of it as group self found we don't sell to each other just pool gear etc). I want to start the league with a wander and I wanted to try power siphon. I put this tree together with early late game gear and wanted opinions or suggestions if any of you had some. (I will be playing with an aurabot not 100% of the time but most of the time)

    Essence Drain as 3.9 starter?

    Posted: 09 Dec 2019 11:08 PM PST

    What do you think about Essence Drain Trickster for a 3.9 starter? I know Essence Drain is a good League starter for a long time and I play it very often. Will it go well with the Metamorph-content? Because single target is not the strength of this build even if single target damage is not so bad.

    I also had the feeling when going ED as starter that there was a kind of wall when hitting red maps. Until red maps everything is super smooth and screens pop instant and bosses did not take too long.

    But with higher tier maps I also had the feeling the build slows down even when you invest in better gear

    Need help with my Armageddon brand chieftian

    Posted: 09 Dec 2019 10:42 PM PST

    Here is the PoB.

    Concept:

    • Fast Starter to push the atlas as fast as possible doing it safety (Day 1 and 2)
    • Chieftain for tankyness
    • Blood Magic for tankyness (Don't like MoM and going without mitigation is out of the question)
    • Ignite (Never done it wanted to give it a try)
    • Ignite Proliferation Gem (For fast clearing)

    Problem:

    The dps is very low (in my opinion) the shaper DPS is 41k ignite DPS and 51k total DPS ( 91K dps combine), the gear that I created is not the best is something to aim in the first days of the league. (No rings or chest since it is a tabula and resistance rings so no extra dps there)

    Questions:

    1. Is it normal for Ignite builds to have numbers that low?
    2. Did I do something wrong with the PoB is there something to check special for ignite builds?
    3. How can I improve the build cheaply without changing the concept listed above?

    Kinetic Blast for league starter?

    Posted: 09 Dec 2019 10:17 PM PST

    Hi,

    Was wondering if kinetic blast would be an alright league starter (pure damage not mf). Are other wand skills better? Is deadeye the best ascendancy for damage? Can it still do bosses somewhat for league mechanic?

    Holy Relic Build League Starter

    Posted: 09 Dec 2019 08:55 PM PST

    With the development manifesto finally here for 3.9 I was thinking of doing a Holy Relic build as a league starter. I was inspired by Ghazzy's video on a build he did with the skill and was looking around to see if anyone has their own take on the build. I'm hoping to league start with the skill and ramp it up throughout the league. Thanks!

    Toxic Rain Leveling

    Posted: 09 Dec 2019 08:55 PM PST

    Does anyone have any resources regarding toxic rain leveling? I'm looking find out which gems to grab for each quest in addition to what skill points to grab while leveling up. I watched Kammel's video and he's going too fast to grab a leveling tree from as well it being a little hard to understand why certain gems are grabbed since hes going so fast. I also looked at AngryRoleplayer's guide but he doesn't go into detail for the leveling process. I would really appreciate if someone could link me a resource for the exact gems to grab during leveling and/or the skills to grab while leveling

    Current best ascendancy for storm brand boss killing?

    Posted: 09 Dec 2019 07:19 AM PST

    Hey guys took a few leagues off so not sure on this one. I see most storm brand characters ar currently assassins but I wasn't sure if that was the optimal choice or if that was more flavor of the league syndrome. I would like to be able to league start and upgrade the character over time to an endgame bosskiller with some investment but overall I'm not sure if assassin is the correct choice or if the tried and true inquisitor or even hierophant would he better?

    Vaal Double Strike starting tips?

    Posted: 09 Dec 2019 02:29 PM PST

    Hi,

    I'm planning to do a double strike gladiator in metamorph league as I've just put one together on standard with cheap-ish gear and I love it.

    Has anyone got any experience with transitioning into such build from a league starter? Any tips would be appreciated. I'm thinking that going generic DW sunder until merc lab (challenger charges + bleed pops) then start using VDS after killing a10 kitava.

    Do you think it's better to wait until 5 link is obtained to start using double strike? 4 link VDS seems a bit whack (as 2 out of 3 supports are going to lower my damage - splash and AC).

    Also last question, would you recommend going bloodseekers or foils to start off with?

    Thanks

    Posted: 09 Dec 2019 11:09 AM PST

    I love this skill.

    Sorry typo, not my first language.

    Vortex/cold snap or bane/ED occultist for league start?

    Posted: 09 Dec 2019 04:50 PM PST

    I'm considering either a CI -> LL cold DoT occultist or a Bane/ED Mom + EB chaos Dot occultist for league start. I feel the chaos DoT character will be easier to gear as its mostly life based but I'm not sure if cold DoT is just better or what as I took a few leagues off.

    How far can death oath be pushed ?

    Posted: 09 Dec 2019 08:51 AM PST

    Hello guys, I have absolutely no idea what to play in 3.9.

    So i am certainly going to go back to one of my favorite build : death oath occultist.

    I Wonder how far can it be pushed in term of Big number. And what solution can i used for boss clearing since it is all what the league will be about. (Apart from lvl 30 Ed in a 6L box)

    Looking for a build Threads?

    Posted: 09 Dec 2019 12:34 PM PST

    Where do these questions typically go?

    Nevertheless, I'm looking for a build for 3.9 that is good to play at the start of a league and in which you can potentially invest multiple Exa over the course of the league to make it perfect. But it should not require multiple Ex investment to work at all.

    I finally wanted to play a Righteous Fire or Bow build.

    Poison Storm Burst

    Posted: 09 Dec 2019 11:05 AM PST

    Hey, I got the idea for using Storm Burst as a means to apply poison because I just remembered that Voltaxic exists. The idea is to take advantage of Storm Burst's many hits and use Voltaxic's lightning to chaos conversion to get as much poison damage out of it as possible. I feel like I'm hard stuck and the damage is trash. I intend on using it as my league starter. Pathfinder for extra Coralito's uptime, extra chaos damage, and more poison damage, as well as the built in poison prolif that Pathfinder has. Problem is I feel like there's a complete lack of shown damage on the PoB.

    Help with beginner inquisitor build!

    Posted: 09 Dec 2019 09:29 AM PST

    Hello everyone!

    I'm trying to build a lightning damage melee inquisitor but couldn't find much about it. I started playing like 10 days ago and didn't go very far yet (highest char is 78 HF totem hiero) and I'm just trying out different builds to start on next season.

    Basically, I'm thinking about:

    Main Skill - Smite or Wild Strike (with 2 combat jewels to proc lightning only)

    +Orb of storm - Arcane surge - Onslaught
    +Steelskin - CWDT - Warlords Mask - Increased duration
    +Herald of Thunder
    +Wrath/Precision/Zealotry? (not sure which one)
    +Ice or Lightning Golem
    +Ancestral protector totem for single target

    Inquisitor ascendancy: Instruments of virtue, Sanctuary, Pious Path, Righteous Province

    Questions:

    -I just want a fun build to clear maps and not struggle too much on bosses, can something like this work for late game content or is it just bad and random?

    -What weapon should I pick for this build and passive tree points: dual wield sceptre or staves? Both seems to be the best options for this kind of build providing physical and spell/elemental damage, but not sure about which uniques or rares would fit the best. Staves looks great and got a lot of passive points on the tree, but scepter seems to have some strong options (singularity, doryani's, augyre)

    -Didnt do a proper POB full build yet, just wanted to know what people think about this before wasting time on that

    Any help will be appreciated, thanks in advance

    Thicc boi - looking for nebuloch jug build

    Posted: 09 Dec 2019 07:40 AM PST

    Could you please recommend some good nebuloch-based jug builds? Preferably dual wielding it . Cyclone is probably best skill to use. Tectonic slam does not sound bad either but I'm afraid the clear speed with it would not be bearable but correct me if I'm wrong.
