While I don't like even more skills to click for bosses, I think it isn't worse than banners are.

Hmm found some nice dual strike that I want to try out. With new gem should be insane dmg. Not sure about it though.

Any ideas?

164% Life, Slayer with no overleech. If you were SC I'd say go for it but this seems a bit... flimsy.

Tbh anything with a decent lifepool should do alright be it Slayer/Glad/Champion/Jugg. Glad is a crazy raceclass now with all the free MS/AS for example.

I also specifically stayed away from melee because I didn't have time to deal with the new tree and whatnot so I'm afraid I won't be of much help. I'd be wary of melee below 180% for sure though.

Not starting in HC is just wrong unless we pick a league where we just all go at some point. =P

I'll go SC if the game a) is so fun that I want to do more after 7-10d and b) if dying in HC annoys me. So that's back to "probably quitting the league before going to SC"-good old days.

PS: Queue is up 29k for me. I clicked the "ad banner" away like three times before noticing that's the actual queue. -.-

Flesh and Stone's blind aura + The Effigon seems like a really strong combo for ascendancies that don't get easy access to hits can't be evaded.

It does seem kinda fiddly for builds that actually want to switch stances a lot, though. But maybe I just hate pressing buttons.

Thanks! Further refined it a bit and got 200% from tree now and skilled into leech. Probably to stupid to use frenzy / endurance mechanic perfectly anyway. Lost quite a bit of damage but with new skills might be offset.

I like the league so far:

I wasn't sure which skill to use, which weapons to use and which ascendancy... So i tried. Dual Strike, Viper Strike, Frost Blades, Blade Flurry, Cyclone and just grabbed Phys-DMG nodes on the tree. I ended up with this (made it to T9 before any real Investment into gear):

Cyclone/CwC/BV/PhaseAcro/Crit-Assassin Masterrace (the joy of playing SC )

Now I spent 1 Ex on a Disintegrator but couldn't really test it yet, from the one map I did with it my DMG now seems pretty nice.

So, my tree is probably horrible, which means:

I gotta fix this somehow. Cyclone by itself still does some actual damage and I would like to keep it that way but i guess thats not really an option in the long run?

Can someone tell me how i actually make the Poison from the Assassin Ascendancy do some damage by itself? Atm i just poison enemies and get the various buffs but the poison damage seems to be basically useless? How do you get decent poison damage? I don't want a pure poison character but the poison should do at least some dps (killing white stragglers and so on)?
Else i probably would be better off with the Power Charge stuff or Trickster?
Trickster would most likely be smarter anyway but well, i'm a special snowflake.


I will get two 5/6 Links, one is the CWC setup, thats clear. What would you do with the other? I'll probably do a Doublestrike-Setup just for Vaal-DS (or BV) but that seems like a bit of a waste?

Btw: Vaal-BV + Vaal-Double Strike + Vaal-Cyclone = Total Slaughter.
It just deletes all but the most tanki map bosses/Legion rares, even Vaal-Cyclone seems decent now? I remember it being basically a death trap but now it feels pretty safe to use (if the ground under you isn't allready telegraphed to blow up)?

Help would be appreciated.

Poison like Ignite needs to be your 100% focus if you want it to matter.

Hm... I hoped the Assassin Ascendancy would take care of that on its own, even if it would just be enough to kill stragglers . So the powercharge route would most likely be better then?

Poison is kind of crap unless you take Assassin or Pathfinder ascendancies. They are not boosts to it, they are enablers.

With non poison assassin you go all in for critical hits and multi.

I'm having a lot of fun too, the Legion mechanic is rewarding and satisfying. The buffs to rare monsters' life are real tho, some of them are tanky bastards now. First time SSF for me and so far it's very satisfying to build and upgrade the character without trading

This is my fourth league (over the span of a couple of years) and fifth character. My first character was a cyclone melee and only got to lvl 40-something and after that I only played spellcasters/ranged but now it's back to cyclone....

...and playing melee feels twice as hard as ranged. Thinking about it I've might have spent too much on damage nodes when I need survivability but I felt slow.

In synthesis league I think I only ripped once (didn't know the Brine King mechanics well enough) but I've died like 10 times this league (on sc) and I'm only in act 8 so far.
Stuff I learned:
  • Brine King, this time to his storm thing that envelopes him - it's dangerous.
  • You can get frozen/stunned by cold mobs and it killed me twice so far. I think me only having low cold resistance is a bad combo. Writing this I actually looked up the stun mechanics and I probably get stunned because of my low res, right?
  • Porcupines. Seriously screw these guys. I died 3 times in the same area. Twice not knowing what happened, once because I didn't appreciate how dangerous they could be.
  • Oh, and Innocence owned me a couple of times.

Yeah you got stunned because of your low res (and low life possibly) you need to start capping your res pretty quickly. Id say around act4/5 you want 60+ res across the board unless you really know what youre doing. If youre playing HC your tree should be about travelling to all life nodes first, and you want to prioritize high life rolls across all your gear.

Porcupines arent that bad provided you: dont kill a whole pack at once, have some armor/eva, have a good amount of life.

Innocence and brine king is mostly learning the mechanics. Innocence is probably the hardest boss besides kitava imo.

And yeah melee is harder to play, until you get some nice aoe going at least .

Many bosses got buffed too, including both Brine King and Innocence. There was a reddit post listing known boss changes if I remember correctly.
