Could you be more elaborate? What made you think so? Are you actually end game with full Markovian?
I can assure you there is no cheat here. He has 100% uptime on Overguard because of markovians if not having this that is what killed you.
It would be better if you posted what stats you couldn’t attain and someone maybe the OP himself will help out.
Was the above post I quoted trolling or he deleted it realizing it was nonsene?
It sounds like he didn’t understand that the Grimcalc was counting +skills.
I’d still like to see a calc without them, personally. It’d be helpful for me. I’m building this for my first HC character, currently level 38… and actually levelling with 1H/shield and Cadence to start rather than the BA route.
My damage is pathetic but I haven’t died yet!
Edit: Also, do you use any of the augments from either Kymon’s Chosen or Death’s Vigil? Does the choice matter at all?
You are probably right about him not understanding grim calc. And on your leveling. Have you tried falcon swoop + bull rush for leveling? Also might be worth even putting a coupple of ponts in Curse of Frailty at your lvl. Bullrush on autoattack and falconswoop on CoF should be pretty good.
Just don’t do Assassins Mark yet. Not enogh OA at this level for constant crits.
I have Falcon Swoop now, but only got it pretty recently. I went Turtle first just to give me some peace of mind playing HC. Swoop was definitely a big help once I got it, though. I’m still very low on damage, all things considered, but I’d rather play it safe.
Part of me wants to just head up to Bear and Shield Maiden, but I’m sure that Oleron is probably a big part of this build.
Edit: Actually, if I gave up Hawk, Dryad, Chariot, and Unknown Soldier I could keep Turtle, Bear, and Shield Maiden and still grab Oleron. Not sure if that trade off would be worth it, though.
Listen to the parts in you then:p…you can just get bullrush instead of turtle…same devotion poits in spend and return and you get damage (the bull proc has 25% while bear has 15% so bear is better off on a skill with cooldown and you won’t use blade arc with this build). You don’t really need the turtle if you mitigate damage well…Get some resists…Overguard has Flat absorb which is really OP in veteran and elite and very good in ultimate…it’s what this build relies on for the most part. So go for the damage…End game you have oleron’s anyway so make life simpler for yourself with the smaller devos on your way…you have both dryad an turtle i just noticed…Drop turtle!!! You are being too defensive. Trust Overguard and time it well.
Edit: don’t drop Chariot whatever you do…It’s good now. You will need the OA. Hawk also is very good. Great OA and %CRit for just three points. Keep it. Remeber you will use Menhir Bulwark (max this early with overguard) not Oleron’s Rage
Well, I’ll take your advice and stick to the OA devotions instead of trying to get Bear. It seems like a really good offensive constellation for this build, but yeah, if I can’t sacrifice the OA then there’s no way to get it.
I’m too paranoid to drop Turtle Shell right now, though. I’ll drop it down the road, but I feel like I need it for levelling. I never even really get that low, I think I’ve only popped it once or twice, but I’ve already invested a lot of time into this character and I just feel better having that extra safety net.
Ok if you feel safe like this for now. But remember that you have menhir’s will as a circuit breaker. Do you have at least one point in that? And try maxed Bulwark and Overguard and see how you feel then. You will stop feeling paranoid and start being a bit over confident:p
At your level you are prob end of Veteran? It’s a godd idea to pop an imbued silver in your weapon right about now for chaos resist aura. If you are having trouble with resists.
I have one point in MW and one point in Overguard. I’m working on Bulwark right now, currently 9/12, and then I guess I’ll hit Overguard next.
Besides that, currently 50/50 Soldier, 15/50 Occultist, 8/16 Cadence, and 7/16 Blood of Dreeg… then some other misc. one-pointers.
I’m actually still in the middle of Act 3 on Veteran. I just took a detour and went through Eastern Marsh for the devotion shrine though.
I’ve been using Imbued Silver in my weapon since level 20 or so, but I probably didn’t need it. I just wanted to get as many resists as high as possible as quickly as possible.
Right now at level 38 my health is 7,830 and my resists are 80/80/80/80/15, 34/18/14/4/20.
Cool just keep going on Bulwak Overguard and then Blood of dreeg. You might want to max fighting form before cadence. Fighting form is a buff that lasts 4 seconds and is refreshed every third hit. It’s constant as long as you are in battle. The damage from cadence is ONLY applied on every 3rd hit. Fighting form +Bulwark give you plenty of flat physical damage added to your weapon. You need this a lot combined with a fast weapon. Jajaja mentions this. Cheers
Can you write devotion setup step by step, for the most effective early game ?
Also what faction recommend for this build?
Just tested the new buffs Cadence got in the update and just murder the Mad Queen in around 20 secs. My top crit now is 90k and previously it was 70k.
Falcon Sweep got a debuff of 10% weapon damage but it now deal flat physical damage too. Didn’t noticed an increase or decrease in damage.
Also, Markovian shield gives flat OA and helm gives around 3% OA. With Fighting Spirit my OA reaches around 2800~.
This build just got better. My paper DPS jumped from 28k to 34k. I also switched Falcon Sweep with Targos Hammer. I guess this build is pretty good in the Crucible.

What’s the point to use 2x Ring of Black Matriarch? As far as i know, debuffs dont stack.
There is 3 categories of resistances debuff.
In this case it’s -n% resistance debuff which stack within itself!
Don’t forget the +2 to Cadence. The only way to achieve 26/16.
As far as i know, effects from the SAME debuffs dont stack (you can apply Curse of Frailty 5 times to an enemy, but effects wont stack, only the strongest will take effect, while other 4 will be “suppresed”).
So, it shouldnt stack.
Of course, it will proc 2x more often, and ring itself has decent stats, but i still dont think 2-nd ring is worth to be put on. You can use a rare ring with good rolls, after all - and it’s a very solid choice.
With 1.0.0.5, this build gained the most dire buffs, it seems. The only problem is that it requires full Markovan set to shine really well, and i have only 3/5 pieces.
BTW, i’m curious - why do you use that sword, even despite is has 25% piercing? Why dont use some mace or axe? I dont think +1 to soldier skill is worth all that - why dont get a well-rolled rare instead?
They stack within themselves if triggered by different debuffs.
You are correct, rings don’t stack
Depends on what you mean by “shine really well”.
I have one of these with only 2 legendaries equipped. Agony (the boss weapon for this build now) and Peerless Eye. Bad drops on a self-found. With the new patch I can now do everything but Mogdrogen reasonably. 1.0.0.5 almost doubled my damage.
So, no, you don’t need Markovian’s. Though I do wonder what the damage looks like on full Markovian now. Can you get 50k?
