    How I feel as an average Hollow Palm enjoyer after the announcement

    Posted: 15 Jul 2021 03:40 PM PDT

    Calling it now: Blade Trap is OP. It has blade in the name.

    Posted: 15 Jul 2021 08:39 PM PDT

    Title. Blade skills are always good.

    I'm thinking blade trap will melt bosses. What do you all think of it? Any ideas for scaling?

    Traps and daggers are both in the same part of the passive tree and both get tons of crit multi. That's what I'm thinking. Maybe Vulconus?

    I'm interested in them all of a sudden.

    It's time to theorycraft the ultimate melee totems

    Posted: 16 Jul 2021 03:29 AM PDT

    Salutations Exile.

    With Earthbreaker support announced, I spent an hour or so going over each slam skill gem in the game and comparing their effectiveness, fun, and meme capability.

    Obviously Leap Slam totems is the top dog, but I have a slightly more reserved idea.

    Consecrated Path totems. Flashy, teleporting, slamming, jamming totems covering your screen with holy fire and consecrated goodness.

    Now, I'm going to need some ideas for this. A crusade is a team effort after all.

    Firstly, the Ascendancy. Chieftain is the obvious choice due to it's synergy with totems, fire damage and strength in general. But there may be alternatives. Perhaps an Inquisitor, or an Ascendant?

    As a league starter, there are slightly fewer options when it comes to melee totems. Facebreakers, Hollow palm and BLS are probably out of the question for the first few days, which begs the question, how to proceed?

    Scaling flat phys or fire? Full fire conversion? Maximum coverage vs maximum single target? Effectiveness of consecrated ground? Strength stacking with BLS and Tukohama's Fortress? Large 2H weapon for the totems to scale off of? Totem damage and effectiveness? Auras?

    We're going to think through it all, for the good of our Holy brethren.

    Deus Vult.

    Summon Reaper scaling

    Posted: 16 Jul 2021 03:57 AM PDT

    So most of you bone zone enjoyer are probably like me and watching the Reaper as a very interesting thing to spec into. But I'm not sure how she would do with a regular triad conversion build since they seem to love to press on the fact she makes stuff bleed.

    So I wondered how can you scale minion bleeds? Are the hunter affixes we already have working for summons? And what kind of link would you give her. I was thinking something like Summon Reaper - Minion Damage - Predator - Brutality - Melee Phys - Melee Splash/Maim, and have Feeding Frenzy zombies/skellies/Carrion Golem on the side to support and feed her.

    Storm Rain Ideas?

    Posted: 15 Jul 2021 09:52 PM PDT

    Hey all, before seeing the trailer today I was thinking about a bow toxic rain build for my SSF starter but I wanted to try something crit for a starter. Storm Rain was the skill that interested me the most out of all of them in the trailer and I was wondering if anyone has thought about using that skill at all. Since I'm playing SSF some of my ideas will be more geared towards that.

    •Windripper (farmable thru div cards) seems like it could be used. I think quant/rarity is underutilized especially on SSF too as an added bonus.

    •I'm thinking Raider will be strong for this skill, especially for taking this build into red maps/ endgame bosses. % dodge for spell and attack + perma-phase is huge thru Quartz Infusion. EXPOSURE, ailment immunity and -accuracy to enemies with Avatar of the Veil. Finally, 150% effect Onslaught and 35% increased evade with Rapid Assault + Avatar of the Curse.

    •Conductivity on hit ring can be gotten early thru delve.

    •Could go the way of Aspect of the Cat with a Farrul's item.

    •Stormcharger boots gives 30% phys to lightning conversion, seems really hard to get 100% tho (also not really sure of the benefits of conversion).

    https://i.imgur.com/X05KtG7.png
    Here's the gem, which I didn't see before. It looks like extra projectiles will be strong since each arrow in the ground can shoot 4 beams. Depending on the aoe of the skill this should be nice for bossing and clearing.

    Summon Reaper - Build Theory

    Posted: 15 Jul 2021 03:21 PM PDT

    Battlemage's cry + absolution + dominating blow + herald of purity = DEUS VULT

    Posted: 15 Jul 2021 04:04 PM PDT

    We already know dominating blow alone is pretty solid, so getting some extra minions from absolution for free is already nice. On top of that, battlemage's cry gives crit chance and allows attacks to be effected by spell damage modifiers. Could be fun.

    Forbidden Rite Mitigation

    Posted: 15 Jul 2021 09:06 PM PDT

    New skill forbidden rite looks cool, but it will kill you. How can we mitigate the damage? I know we need to see gem details first.

    If it's chaos damage we could use CI, or high chaos resistance plus regen.

    Any other ideas?

    Explosive concoction discussion

    Posted: 15 Jul 2021 06:24 PM PDT

    Particularly interested in this skill!

    Some neat things about this skill that immediately stand out to me:

    • Does Facebreaker apply to this skill? Does Rigwald's?
    • needs only 1 topaz or sapphire to provide trinity
    • multi element tags frostferno is a +4
    • projectile tag is relevant
    • pathfinder seems like the obvious synergy but it only eats charges from at most 1 flask if you want. So not entirely necessary to be the ascendancy of choice.
    • conversion shenanigans looks doable.

    Any other relevant topics that would influence build ideas?

    Raider benefits the qol/ attack speed Chieftain could use the fire dmg/ conversion Turn it into a mine / trap for Sab? Elementalist ignite shenanigans Inquis pen benefits?

    Did i push it to far?

    Posted: 15 Jul 2021 11:13 AM PDT

    Did i push it to far?

    I tried to push the Attribute Stacking as far as it could go and i nearly maxed out at 5661 Strength.

    Can someone help me out if there is any other build with that much strength?

    Bone shatter build ideas ?

    Posted: 16 Jul 2021 01:07 AM PDT

    Ok so I really liked the bone shatter build and the whole big bonk go stun thing. Also the fact that powercreeping is getting nerfed means that the best defence layer in the game aka killing things faster than they can kill me is going down. So I was wondering if you got any ideas of building as a sweet big bonk jugg bone shatter ?
    Also wondering how the skill would work on bosses that are non-stunneable but i suppose you would just need to hit another mob once in a while to clear the thing.

    Maxblock, counter, smite and shield charge

    Posted: 16 Jul 2021 04:37 AM PDT

    Considering stuff is slowing down, less defences etc. Notes are not in but new "smite" skill is there. Good shield would bring insane base damage on that and getting defensive and having movement skill nicely available this looks like a very good league starter? Also as weapon is more of stat stick, this could easen gearing

    any good mapper uses kinetic blast?

    Posted: 16 Jul 2021 04:14 AM PDT

    i tried flame wall kb two times and didnt liked it because of items are pricey. today all of us saw kinetic blast on expedition stream (https://youtu.be/mT_aoGoMm50?t=1459). i need a mapper like that. bosskilling is a big plus

    Thoughts on Tectonic Slam Totems Cheiftan

    Posted: 16 Jul 2021 04:03 AM PDT

    Just throwing an idea around in my head, tell me if im missing something. Facebreakers/abyssus(softcore, dont get hit). +1 End charges Kaoms roots so freeze is non issue(potentially death's door if i feel i dont need to worry about freeze. Still leaves Rings/Amulet for flat phys/res, and a belt/+1 totem shield.

    I havent played a facebreaker build in maybe 2 years, so not sure if they still have good damage, or if im better off with a 2h weapon(staff maybe for some block and a second 6l setup for a warchief totem or even a kaoms heart)

    Ascendancy - Ngahamu->Ramako->Arohongui->Tasalio(maybe respec into Tukohama or Valako when i get the resists sorted out)

    Dominating Blow - Behead

    Think it'll give mods to your sentinels? The range increase looks nice for DBlow.

    Forbidden Rite

    Posted: 15 Jul 2021 02:06 PM PDT

    I'm intrigued by one of the new spells from Expedition, Forbidden Rite. "Lobs an exploding projectile near the targeted location, and extra projectiles toward enemies around you. The projectiles deal Chaos damage based on your Life and Energy Shield. Casting the spell damages you." Just to get a discussion going, how would you guys theoretically create a build around this?

    Absolution for Necromancer

    Posted: 16 Jul 2021 02:02 AM PDT

    In terms of pure damage, Necromancer feels like a better fit for Absolution than Guardian. Unnatural Strength buffs Absolution directly, presumably also including the Sentinels of Absolution and the Absolution they use, Commander of Darkness grants cast speed, and Mistress of Sacrifice with Flesh Offering compounds that even more. With Empower, Absolution is at minimum a lv 24 or 25 skill gem, and can hit even higher depending on what items are equipped.

    At the moment, I don't see the other Necro nodes fitting nicely into such a build, but any other ideas?

    EDIT: u/Terrible_Machine9 had an idea for an offering-based Necromancer, and I'm wondering if some of that flavour can be replicated here. Given that Absolution is a physical to lightning spell, sources of Phys gained as Chaos like Unholy Might, Spirit Offering, and Disintegrator seem to be a great fit for this build, doing primarily lightning and chaos damage. Since Absolution takes some of the pressure off you to deal damage and use skills, Disintegrator's degen feels more manageable, and Replica Eternity Shroud seems a pretty good fit overall, removing any need to debuff chaos resist. Anyone has any experiences scaling phys gained as chaos alongside a conversion?

    Earthbreaker Totem

    Posted: 15 Jul 2021 09:54 PM PDT

    What do you think abot this support gem? Really liked the presentation of it and I'm thinking about a build for it.

    Guess all the Warcry exerted Attacks stuff will not work with totems so it may be hard to get decent damage.

    Any thoughts about it?

    Eye of Winter (Frozen Orb) - Occultist, Inquisitor, or Assassin?

    Posted: 16 Jul 2021 01:18 AM PDT

    I feel like it will be decent on all of them, depending on crit scaling. I've never done a CoC build but this one might be interesting.

    Thoughts?

    Does anyone know if replica advancing fortress would affect the new shield crush?

    Posted: 16 Jul 2021 01:13 AM PDT

    It says 50% increased shield defense. Is that before or after the dmg calcs?

    What are your favorite late-league builds?

    Posted: 15 Jul 2021 08:45 AM PDT

    I feel like people always talk about great league starters and cheap endgame builds, but I don't really see people talk about what they like to see in a build with 100-1000ex. So I'm curious, what build do you all spend all that currency from your league starter on?

    Poison Blade Trap Un-smart?

    Posted: 15 Jul 2021 04:48 PM PDT

    Just making sure I'm not too far off base. My idea immediately was to use the new blade trap skill as a poison delivery system for assassin and make the most condensed trree ever but if I'm not mistaken about 1/2 the assassin ascendency is off limits to traps because YOU have to apply the damage for noxious strike, YOU have to kill for mistwalker, and "poisons YOU inflict" disqualifies toxic delivery.

    Correct?

    How far do you go with your Starter?

    Posted: 15 Jul 2021 11:25 AM PDT

    While a new league is near I wonder how far do you usually go with your league starter build? Does it depends on on much currency you make before you make another one, or do you hit a goal like red maps or all watchstones or Sirius kill? At which point do you let your starter go?
