    Molten Shell ignite - why is it not a thing?

    Posted: 29 Apr 2022 05:34 AM PDT

    Hi, I was wondering why Molten Shell ignite for bossing is not a thing? 300.000 (10.000 * 3000%) is a pretty big base. I understand that there is a big opportunity cost: you need to take 13.333 post-mitigation damage to fully charge it, also you have to tank 3.333 damage in a rather short time window. You also need to stack Armour (but 50.000k armour sounds ok).

    I feel that I'm missing something. But shouldn't a simple bone shatter + recoup/regen do the trick? build elementarist for free ignite. Of course, it should be viable only as a bosser. What do you think?

    6L Triggered Discharge with Flicker

    Posted: 29 Apr 2022 08:41 AM PDT

    Hi All, looking for advice on a flicker discharge build I've been theorycrafting. Note - I know the dps numbers are going to be way off because it will not always be full charges etc., I am still working out a way estimate charges per cast. I am also sure there is inefficient pathing or nodes that are not worth taking - I am not an expert build maker, I just really enjoy tinkering in POB :) any suggestions/corrections are greatly appreciated!

     

    POB: https://pastebin.com/8s5N5PAJ

     

    I have seen a few attempts at this online (mainly with terminus for frenzy generation) and I by no means think this is new territory, but I wanted to make a build focused around abusing the trigger craft and endless misery interaction that allows you to effectively trigger a 6L discharge every 250ms. Not only does this allow 2 more links than a CoC version but it also allows me to attempt to use a 6L flicker to keep frenzy charges up. My original intention was to also abuse the high %added damage effectiveness of both of these skills but it evolved into this. Cyclone does not work in this setup because it is only "used" once for the purposes of the trigger craft.

     

    big problem: both flicker and discharge consume frenzy charges

    solution?: 20% frenzy on hit for Flicker, blood rage, redeemer chest 10% frenzy on hit. Really the main issue is bosses, which I'm trying to solve with blade vortex CoC, hydrosphere (extra target, extra chance for frenzy), orb of storms, storm brand - basically skills that hit frequently to attempt to generate charges. Any other ideas that I've missed? I'm wondering if socketing Frenzy instead of flicker for bosses is just a better idea...

     

    problem: defenses

    solution?: I think I should reliably have some endurance charges up because they are always added when I lose power charges. I've never tried stacking evasion and armor before, but tried here. Anyone have success with this or better to focus one? Also trying immortal ambition for the first time for overleech - if you've built around this before please let me know if I can improve this. I think the 17/12 block and 25 suppress may be pointless...

     

    problem: mana, trigger craft = 150% more cost of 6L triggering every 250ms...

    solution?: mana leech, body armor -20 cost (making flicker free), inspiration support, reduced cost of skills on tree. I'm still not 100% clear on the total cost but I think discharge may be 280 mana per second? so that amount needs to be overcome with leech and regen. Any ideas here greatly appreciated.

     

    I really appreciate you taking the time to read this!

    How is the bossing for Oro’s Sacrifice Flicker Strike?

    Posted: 29 Apr 2022 08:13 AM PDT

    I know it won't be the greatest but will I regret the decision to league start it? (Provided no nerfs of course, Ascendancy is Slayer)

    Edit: I'm trying to decide between the safe choice of Absolution Necromancer or going full ADHD Disco Lights Flicker Strike

    Cyclone Build Idea STD

    Posted: 29 Apr 2022 01:14 AM PDT

    Hey Guys,

    I wanted to try a Cyclone build with a Staff. But atm I'm not really sure what would be the best way to build arround it. Mostly I want Speed/AOE/Explosions/~8-10mdps with decent defences. Budget doesnt matter, cause I play in Standard.

    I wanted to use a legacy elevated explode chest in combination with Herald of Ash aswell as stacking Aoe and 100% phys to fire convert to get some nice explosions(if its enough?). For Ascendancy I'm unsure which I should pick, Berserker, Chieftain, Slayer and Ascendant are looking viable for me.

    For now I probably stick to Slayer, cause I get some AoE, dps and Overleech from him which is pretty nice. Also there is the opportunity to get the Gladiatior Ascendancy for Challenger Charges.

    For the Weapon I think that a Staff with High phys dmg might be the best and easiest option, also it would allow me to use shockwave. Another option would be to use Fulcrum and just reverst all effects to get Lightning Speeed, but dps could be a little lack luster.

    What you think about the ideas and is in your opinion the best way to make this work?

    How to level a Templar for doriyanis

    Posted: 29 Apr 2022 07:03 AM PDT

    I'm planning on starting a Templar and once I get some basic currency to get my hands on a Mjolnir for some arc Action. But before I get to that point I'm not sure what would be my smoothist leveling through campaign.

    My end game will be something similar to what mathil had back in scourge league. ( Hopefully) I know that the negative res gear isn't able to be obtained now but I know there are ways around. Thanks for advise

    3-man party play

    Posted: 29 Apr 2022 02:23 AM PDT

    Me and some friends are going to play a 3-man party comp next league. Focus will be primarily on mapping with an MF and an aurabot, we are not sure about what the best choice for the 3rd person will be.

    Is 3-man profitable? What are the better comps.

    Which of these builds are tankier? (especially when afking)

    Posted: 29 Apr 2022 01:28 AM PDT

    So last build I made this league was CaptainLance's giga guardian which was the best build I've played to date and for the next league I've got 3 league starters (if they are not nerfed obv):

    1-DD (ignite or hit maybe transition into cremation)

    2-CF KB into aurastacker

    3-Absolution into carrion or stone golems

    or I could again RF inq into giga guardian.

    So are those builds comparable enough to giga guardian or should I go with giga guardian again?

    Which Minion league starter?

    Posted: 29 Apr 2022 12:55 AM PDT

    Hello everyone, my plan for 3.18 is starting with a necromancer, is there a good build using HoA? I always wanted to play with it but the only guide i found was very confusing.

    Also, which minion build is better for killing bosses and not being so much squeasy, i have lots of skill issues :v

    str stacking zombie with the baron

    Posted: 29 Apr 2022 03:17 AM PDT

    Pretty much qs the text suggests. Not as unique heavy as previous builds just the baron, astramentis, torrent's reclamation and lastly saqawals which leaves boots glives both rings. To fix resistance and get high str roles on them all. Going for a life and es version. I am yet to setup a tree for it (waiting for patch notes. As one should) but yes that is more or less the item side of the build. Also i was thinking of capping impale on summons with clusters.

    Defensive side of things is a bit of a mess that's where i need you guys to come in. How viable would that be as a decent ish map clear and a formidable bosser?. For a weapon i was thinking a two handed staff for the zombies with the usual suspects multi strike empower melee phys impale summon zombies and something else. Auras in the other six link with an enlighten...

    So thoughts ideas?
