Damage seems workable in maps but single target just seems okay-ish? Yes, leveling would indeed be super painful. Will it be good in maps? Probably. Single target we shall see. Worst thing is gem swapping, I think Chain will be super good for clear but needs to be swapped for bosses. I think I'll be using MoM with very low mana just against DoT. Petrified Blood is probably trash until you somehow get Leech (not many sources for spells left  )but whatever.I have no idea how to fit in all the gems though... That's my biggest issue. Would be easier if I skip Corrupting Fever or keep it as a 1L, but idk if that's a good idea. | ||

For a fun caster, I had lots of fun with Arc, and the Vaal Arc got a buff so it can be better. And you can use a Impulsa (I think it's the name) for your explo armor. | ||

 Sad thing is that due to flesh and stone nerf I won't be able to fit blood and sand into the build, at least not initially without a couple enlightens and probably a reservation passive on the tree. | ||

That list was just incomplete. My guess was you just wont see them from other league mechanics like you mentioned Yeah, that was my guess, too, since the wording is "such as", but I wasn't 100% sure. If they clarified it that's good. | ||

I do feel like this league has pretty harsh requirements on decent builds though. Some things like BV felt like they got carried hard by explody chests. Farming stuff like A9 on ED would be miserable still I presume? What kinda mines are hot these days? I don't know if it got nerfed or changed, but typically you would do Chaos Slinger (ED + friends) and it's super duper fast. It takes a lot of inventory micro though, due to all the socket pressure | ||

It takes a lot of inventory micro though, due to all the socket pressure yeah, when i played ed/cont trickster last time (in harvest), i used spellslinger until maybe t8-t10 maps. the damage felt kinda meh by then, missing malevolence and stuff. After the switch and some gearing up, i had contagion on 4L, ED in 5L essence crafted gloves, and blight as a 6L for single target. Pushing ED damage and contagion aoe felt best. Gotta get enough damage on ED that one ED kills at least any rare mob in a legion, and everything is fine. It was also (with an OG glancing blows, but still) the easiest and safest a8 sirus killer i ever played. not the fastest, but for sure the safest. That "sirus throws balls at you between 2 walls" phase was pretty much "stand there, free damage". | ||

Not sure what the best aura setup is for a slamboi now. On April 16 2021 11:55 EchelonTee wrote: I've been busy and just now catching up on all the news.

So what are the gem options then? VGS + Brutality + Pulverise + Melee Physical Damage + Impale + Maim / Ruthless (should be trash for Vaal gems) / Fortify (not for Champion) / Concentrated Effect (gem swapping / int requirement). | ||

in any case I'm going Slayer so decision is easy for me xD - the Lifetap support gem isn't too bad for early game mana management.. not sure how much of a loss in damage that is though | ||
