[1.0.6.1] Warpblade - Krieg DW Aether Cadence Death Knight, Gladiator farmer (9 minutes)

Just the dw one, thanks!

Sent via PM :wink:

So I tried replacing 1 mindwarp with edge of sanity then getting points from fighting spirit to the two wps. Only did one run (died) but from the start you can already feel the slowness. On the run I did, the recording was at 7:41 when I died at 169 with annie, theodin 2 and krieg alive. 7:40 is my average time on the double mindwarp setup.

Maybe because double mindwarp is already almost 100% phys to aether the mod on markovian isnā€™t a big gain from edge, and dps loss on cadence wasnā€™t worth getting the mod on reaping strike.

Thanks on sharing it.
I think itā€™s the effect of Mindwarp buff. Its ā€œon attackā€ aura applies 14 flat aether and 100% aether to entire character, while Edge of Sanity provides only single-target RR once per 3 seconds and MA+RS mod. WPS mod can be useful on Ritualists though.

Yeah, didnā€™t catch the flat aether on Mindwarp. That weapon is insane.

Krieg DW Ritualist with savagery conduit is interesting, but Iā€™ll be concerned with the lack of AOE.

Safarel made such build. Canā€™t find GT link unfortunately, but I remember it was a campaign build.

Oldy but goldy! If one would be willing to throw in some greens, Kubacabra Chausses will allow you to max out deadly momentum. This will give you 36-50 flat aether damage, which is more than complete Krieg set bonus. For comparison, just those 3 levels pump out as much flat damage as 20 levels of flame touched. Devotion wise I feel you should go Hour Glass instead of Solemn watcher. You will still be sitting on 3k DA but for builds like this (Lots of damage, lots of lifesteal, procs) slow resistance is vital and this will put you at 80% instead of 30%. Im sure this will increase your survivability much more than some higher DA levels. And on a last note, I would get all Necro procs. If I remember correctly they use both weapons and are a source of much needed AOE. Together with Direwolf Crest you will be sitting 87% proc chance. Sorry for the long text!!!

Hi!
I use no green items in my builds. I make standard and flexible concepts in general.
Good point about Hourglass, I took it in S&B version, but DW currently performs nice and I donā€™t see any reasons to change it. Maybe Hourglass should work too, but I rather equip Legwraps of Tranquil Mind for slow res and keep current devotion route.

Significant update here.

I made a few tweaks, replaced my panties with Tranquil ones, slightly redistributed skills and made a 6:38 run.

Enjoy!

leveling this build and w2ant to stick with sword n shield. any ideas for aoe damage?

Level with Blitz or Forcewave.
AoE is enough with Doomforce and Kriegā€™s Wrath, as you can see on video.

Howā€™s the time difference in 150-170 with dw versus 1h+shield, did you tried it?

You can see the difference on attached videos in OP

This is my version of the S&B DK https://www.grimtools.com/calc/Q2z4pljZ

Pretty tanky dude, I like those MI shields

I think Blitz + Aeon should make better damage in summary

Necrotic edge makes mobs flee away, better Zolhan. Counter strike is good even only 1 point on it. Blitz deals huge dmg even at softcap, better max Bone Harvest rather than Soul Harvest as your main dmg type is aether. 2k8 DA is not a big one as bosses or nemesis can crit you easily. Harbinger of souls is a better exclusive skills for DK aether build.

Monsters either die to Necrotic or are immune to terrify :stuck_out_tongue:

Soul harvest will affect all dmg since I have the Magelord rings.

Isnā€™t 14% OA worth with Oleron?

I guess I can shuffle at bit more into Siphon Soul - Blood Boil for the OA shred, remember that Arcane bomb also have OA shred.

Siphon souls using by a non-mage char quite not useful, 6s cd with 3s duration, and another button to press. 14% OA vs 10% Adcth and 12% attack speed, include some vitality dmg converted, your call. And with it you can drop Revenant for Aeon glass. Also dont underestimate Blitz or Soul Harvest, epecially Blitz deals both dmg with your weapon and shield, 5-600k/crit quite normal.

If you have missed it, I have cooldown reducion and the transmuter to siphon souls that increases duration.

Sure, the attack speed from Harbinger might be worth it. The adcth dont think so.
