I'm kinda thinking about using the crab helmet and a rare with the crab aspect. Should be pretty decent that way already for physical mitigation. Also, what about a Blade Flurry build with Hatred and added cold on stat stick? So far I've been using Hypothermia, but if you think it's no good I'll reconsider. I wish PoB would have something I could rely on. :D | ||

plus hypothermia grants 20% chill effect so you actually only have to do 0.28% of their hp in a single hit. That said there are chill immune enemies, plus there's the ailment avoidance map mods, plus it never works on the first hit and some portion of builds prefer the 1-shot. It also doesn't show on your big dick tooltip, but yeah it's pretty good. Not insane, but a 39% more multiplier is a great gem. | ||

also apparently rigwald is the only freeze immune mob and he isn't even chill immune only freeze? I'm not sure how accurate this but that's all the wiki has documented. | ||

Not sure I can crack 1/333rd of Shaper/Elder/guardian health with what would basically be a 5L shield throw, though...hmm. Edit: Also, today's (3/29) lab was super easy to 4-5 key, so I ran a bunch of labs. Now I need to figure out if a crab helm with 15% reduced hatred reservation is worth anything... | ||

I'd recommend to either play through the game once on softcore to get to know 1shotty mechanics, or read up on stuff before you engage, or you'll likely rip to some stuff you didn't know hit really really hard. | ||

As for builds... there are a ton of different ones, just check the official forum. Especially check out Juggernaut in Marauder forum and Hierophant in templar forum if you don't mind totems. Those two are pretty good for HC. | ||

I'll echo this. Kitava and to a lesser extent Malachi are quite frustrating the first 1-2 times you face them, but ultimately have super telegraphing once you figure out what's going on. Even watching videos didn't really help me there, there's something just kinetic about how you want to respond to each attack. | ||

Those two are pretty good for HC. Yeah, I played once it was released, I think. But definitely before any expansions. Thanks for the recommendations, everyone. But now I'm just so tempted to start HC...oy! | ||

Also I don't know since when you can play on lockstep, but it might have been after release so you may not know the old desync issues. It also appears on Izaro's Lieutenant.. as I found out by one shotting myself :D | ||

Lockstep definitely only came quite some time after the release. | ||

Yeah, Racecourse fighting bull boss activates it after some seconds and for some seconds (visually noticeable). Waterways boss goes inactive after some damage taken (or also just after a while?) and becomes immune while reflecting your damage. | ||
