I just want to say thanks to the guys in-game (I'm ilovepotatoes) and here who have been patient and answering all my questions.
Just now starting to understand the crafting system, making purchases on poe.trade, and preparing to start mapping. So many thing I'm still so oblivious to, but can't wait to learn it eventually.
Bought a cheap 5-linker just to buff my Ancestral Warchief, and I've noticed a huuuuuuge spike by adding an Added Cold damage gem on it, also the bonus of a ton of freezing procs.

I'm not entirely sure on bleed, but if it works like poison or ignite, PPAD doesn't actually double dip, cos Attack mods don't double dip.
Pierce or slower projectiles might be better options(also situationally point blank).

How are you guys doing? I recently learned that I grossly underestimated the amount of orbs of fusings needed to make a 6 link. Or 5 link for that matter. managed to downgrade my 5 link to a 4 link. And ofc damn vorici is only like lvl5 2/3 so I cant shop cheaper fusings from him.
At least I learned something valuable. =D

Assassin cospris discharge might be the strongest build I've ever played, and I played coc discharge before the coc nerf.

i cant believe that they nerfed mjolnir into the ground but that item exists, lol

How much ho/shield you guys recomment to finnish cruel as bf-cwc-bf shadow? I'm scared of him (but got a new rig, so at least no more randem 5s freezes )
|
Hardcore or softcore?
also cwc should let you be a basically ranged build so you shouldn't have too much difficulty as long as you have good sustain or are willing to tp to refill pots when necessary.
ES is probably not worth mentioning unless you somehow have ghost reaver specced because malachai is the kind of fight where you are unlikely to get recharge off. So in terms of raw HP, you'd like to have at least 2.5k imo. obviously cap res.
|
Hc Range with the less area gem for more deeps is actually pathetic (just got a 4l). But i guess my bladefalltotem could do enough alone anyway
|
I don't think you want to be hitting malachai with your bladeflurry just your bladefall bladeflurry's range is a bit questionable and thats before you consider conc effect does bladeflurry let you aim the cwc spell anywhere on the screen? because stuff like wither does and it's very nice.

Kinda wanna to do a Vortex CI regen tank like this one. Just wondering if Inquisitor is really the best choice, I think Trickster might be a better choice for more regen/ES? The cast speed shouldn't be of much importance. Though I guess the 60% increased recovery of Trickster might be tough to trigger against the hard bosses. Probably would need worm flask(s) or something. I've never tried Trickster (unlike Inquisitor) so that's part of the reason why I'm interested in changing that build to Trickster.
edit: Hmm, thinking about it, it's probably not better. Pious Path with the cannot be affected by status ailments on consecrated ground sounds pretty good and consecrated ground is much easier to keep up than killing every 4 seconds for bosses that don't spawn adds, especially with Inquisitor.

Yeah, it does. But if i don't use bladeflurry, why not just use 2 wands and bladefall?

because cwc casts faster than 2 wands and has virtually no mana cost with the right skill
realistically bf-cwc-bf is not a very intelligent concept in the first place because there's just no upside. Either you waste a bunch of nodes scaling the attack, or you lose a bunch of damage from attacking instead of using a spell that you are properly scaling, or you waste a bunch of links having cwc bladefall linked to your main damage attack that you scale. Regardless of which it is, there just isn't a way to properly scale and use the attack and the spell at the same time. Plus your weapons are going to be either 0dps weapons or not have spell damage so there's more problems there.
I guess you could make it work with a scourge claw and scaling minion damage? still seems weak compared to making a more focused build
|
I think the idea is that you poison with both skills but use a low mana Bladeflurry. Both do physical damage and can be supported by same supports. You don't need accuracy because CwC does not care if you hit or not. And you can use Scourge claw that will help with both. I think Mathil played a BF-cwc-Bladefall build. Although scourge claw would not work because its bonus only works for attacks, not spells.

anyway wither is significantly more dmg than bladeflurry for a build relying on bladefall to poison and do the damage outside of niche scourge build
