Yeah you get a lot more out of group play than solo.

For DH, is Zei gem still good? i mean when solo gr I pretty much got surrounded by mobs all the time, despite vaulting away a lot. Been trying taeguk instead. but haven't really feel much different due my bad pings sometimes causing me losing taeguk stack. other 2 gems are standard stricken and trap

i like zei. my choice is usually between taeguk and stricken. m6 has alot of single target dmg already and in the lower 70s i don't feel it's necessary to boost boss damage. but when i have a bad day and can't keep more than 10 taeguk stacks i'll happily switch to stricken instead.

I use taeguk for strafe DH and Zei for Marauder something

I do that because i get a lot more closer with Strafe and i need the extra armor (not to mention just by moving with strafe you are building stacks)

And Zai for Sentry/Marauder and w.e. skill i want, mostly because AFAIK Zei affects sentry damage and its easier to have a larger space between you and your enemy with that build than with strafe

yeah, M6 is Zei as I cant possible keep taeguk stack with cluster arrow haha. But I am running UE6 multishot, cuz of ancient yang and no ancient manticore yet. N6 hurts my wrist so much I only play it once in a while just for fun

With UE6 and thunderfury templar, I still get surrounded by mobs quite often. Haven't tried enchantress though, may be more cc will help, but templar just feel better

Taeguk may be good for pushing but when I want to have fun, I replace it with something else.

I think im done for the season. Cleared 73 i could definitely do 74 if not more but playing this helltooth garg is the most boring shit ever sadly. Would've liked to try LoN darts or bats but i just can't get the missing 2-3 pieces. Might try rolling a hc char for a change though.

So basically what I'm asking is... how effective is LoN bombardment without ancient items compared to thorn-sader?

all LoN builds depend alot on items being ancient, I would say stick with thorns set untill you have most of the things as ancient (does not need to be perfect thou)

Ok, so I am trying to understand the delsere-orb build play style. Right now I am struggling to understand what to do with the follower in solo. I want high density (desperately), but I don't have any means of moving mobs around, so I am restricted to kiting them together. That can be pretty annoying with the constant freezing from halo of arlyse, but ok, you can work around that. I also realised how important it is to not throw up the slow time bubble until you have collected all the mobs you intend to kill.

The follower however... I have tried with the enchantress and the crusader, but they both tend to stay half a screen behind me, attracting its own little group of mob, which is clearly not helping. I've tried forcing it to catch up by running ahead and then doubling back, or embracing the followers mob group and kiting back to draw the mobs to the follower. Both are kindof time consuming, and frankly feels like a net loss in terms of clearing time. I am also using ess of johan on the followers to pull mobs together, which can be really nice sometimes. so I am hesitant to give up on a follower altogether.

Any advice?

I hit GR74 on my leap barb and Im pretty much bored with him at this point. Managed to get 269 leader boards and that's prolly the highest I'll be now that I have to start studying for classes. It was a fun grind. I still have my 2 rings and pants to augment, but that's literally all I have left to upgrade.

I'm just tinkering with flash farm sader and wiz builds for fun now.

Overall it was a fun two weeks. I haven't played the last 2 seasons but this season really impressed me content wise.

It was fun pushing into the top 100, 50, and 20 in HC at the beginning of the season, but after 2 weeks of not being able to find an ancient weapon to use one of my FIVE r-gifts on, not being able to go any farther got really tiring. (I spent close to 100% of my db's and souls rolling for it, and got a LOT as I was mostly focusing solely on farming those the majority of the time. Blargh.)

I've got that completed build as well and I haven't had any issues running 60-65 range with some pretty non-ideal rolls on a few pieces. I haven't pushed much past 65, but 65 also isn't uncomfortable or impossible either. I think it's still too low to worry much about extreme density and rounding things up. I've had no timer issues just teleporting around looking for elites and any packs that are already grouped up. Spending time kiting things and creating density for yourself has only slowed me down so far. This obviously turns over at higher GR when you need to group things up and hope for density and good mob types, but I don't think it's as relevant below GR70ish. Focus on DPS and keeping your cycle going instead.

Yeah, I haven't pushed much. Just recently got all the pieces, and then stepped up a lvl at a time, and failed first time at 63. Think it was a pretty bad rift as well tbh. Just wanted to know how I was supposed to handle the follower... I agree that at lower 60:ies it may be faster to not bother too much with kiting and collecting. Just trying to learn the high GR play style.

So you don't feel any problem with the follower stealing density for you? Do you run ess of johan as well on the follower?
