I wasnt talking about DW, but secondary weapon as in switching between the weapons using the w key, and from a quick search it seems like that shield is probably the BiS for damage/physical resist purposes since most legendaries shield fall behind there.
I understand how MI work. The amount affixes needed for the sandspitter to have a decent offensive ability is not a lot especially when compared to the shield which requires 2 specific (one rare) affixes or the medal, which require even more, and literally only comes off one boss. I had a heartpiercing of attack drop for me (rare + uncommon affix combination), but any combination of Frenzy/Heart-piercing/officer’s of Attack/readiness/any rare affixes with Offensive ability would have been better than the Havoc.
Btw, it would be nice if u could give some credit as I did point to you the interaction between WPS like Jaxxon’s, Storm Spread, etc with Retaliation Damage added to attack from Righteous Fervor (retribution). The amount of multiplication for the retaliation added to attack, in case u missed my correct from your previous thread, is 8x, not 4x or 4+1, because both storm spread as well as Jaxxon’s lucky bullet’s WPS shoots TWICE, which gives a total of 8 projectiles, all of which gives Retaliation Damage Added to Attack.
Well,I have built a fire retal Paladin using hellborne not long ago,which is much more aggressive but not as tanky as this build.
Its limit in SR is below 95,but actually is a boss slayer in Crucible. https://www.grimdawn.com/forums/showthread.php?t=84441
Still farming for a decent ikrix MI medal because i dont feel like ripping my lottery-level Witch-Hunter-Ikrix scale of Attack from my chaos deceiver. Or stoneplate boots from my other chars. But the gist of it is there.
Ignaffar/gaze of empyrion arent that effective since they dont come with support for retaliation damage, so it’s not as effective. Hellbourne already converts all physical damage to fire damage (including retal damage added to attack) for Righteous Fervor, so it ends up being just stacking physical damage retal equipment (basically close to a copy and paste of half the retal builds around) and then just running with it.
Sorry,I misread your words:o.
Yes,you’re right,dagallon is better in AOE because of its 100% pass through .
And which shield are you talking about,can you please give me the link in GT?
Yep,you are nice guy who told me about that.I think of that, you are in my last thread which is buried in the forum.
Thanks for your tips.
And both storm spread as well as Jaxxon will Shoots TWICE.I really don’t know about that.
I have seen Jaxxon’s skill with 8 projectiles,but that’s so rare.I thought it has 8 because both rings were effected.
Anyway,I will test it later.
Pre-nerf i was using Bramblevine, but it isnt worthwhile anymore since the amount of gain is negligible and u further cut the physical retal with physical->acid conversion. Your shield is the best in slot for such a build. In fact i think it ultimately hinges on the shield since the shield itself contributes between 30% to 40% of the overall physical retal, and the next best alternative (final stop) drops the damage by about 10%.
Btw, u might want to mention that there’s a trick to getting the shield without “farming” for it. The merchant “Hyram” sells the MI, so u could use the merchant restock trick to rerun the item until u get the affixes, which would probably takes hours if not days nonetheless, but probably makes it possible to get. Something positive is that while u’re doing that u could still buy off all the aether crystal/shards/etc off him as well while u’re cycling through his stock.
Liking the build concept a lot.
Is it possible for this spec to kill Celestials, like Crate of Entertainment and Callagadra?
Would any adjustments be necessary?
