Oh yeah, I forget about combustion band although I use it on both my chaos and fire build
Using combust band increase the dps to 120k ish but now the RR is -60% compared to 141k and -42%, I think it is quite even. Now the problem it has is the loss of 500 armor, I’m gonna change the ring component to bloodied crystal for extra armor but losing about 30 energy regen which I currently think its okay since in game it actually have 290 energy regen. The build now like this: https://www.grimtools.com/calc/4NOBQPPZ
I also have question, previously I use War Cry/Break Morale to reduce enemy physical resistance by flat 35, but since I’m using Krieg set I got the skill Krieg Wrath which reduce all resistance by flat 20. So, should I keep using War Cry/Break Morale or spent the 13 skill point on them and use it on other skill and using Krieg Wrath for flat RR. Both skill have 5s cd.
I don’t think there’s an impact, athereach change only affects the pet parts which this build didn’t use. While the change to Bull Rush, Maul, and blind fury can be used with AAR, this build didn’t take any of those devotion skill, as the devotion path in this build is the main source of energy regen for this build, so it will be harder to tweak the devotion if you want to use that devotion skill.
1.1.7.1 Update hit the build a bit, dps got reduced by about 6k so it perform similarly with the 1.1.6.2 version. Can still do SR 75, only death so far due to Alex meteor, bad positioning, and arcane mob.
Can someone please give me advice on how to level this? I am new to the game and still trying to wrap my head around builds and the order of things. Thanks!
It’s a build that requires the purple gear in the GT to function. Basically level with OFF or forcewave until you can get the gear required, then respec.
What @Smitherson said, the build main equipment are the inashkor head, thankfully it and Krieg armor are easy to farm as they have specific monster that drop them. The amulet blueprint and relic blueprint is also a bit easier as they’re sold/drop from tomb of heretic and ancient grove.
Leveling from beginning is much harder if you go straight for physical aar as there are not much item that cover elemental/aether conversion. So going 2h with blade arc or forcewave is easier as the latter scale with casting speed
This still a good build for 1.9? I can see you split between cunning and physique, do you remember how much for each? This is perhaps one of the first that has all its resistances capped, but when I mouse over say fire it says 80% and 55% over maximum. Does that mean if it read fully then it would be like 130% of the cap?
Depends on how you define good, for an AAR build my spec offer tankiness and using an easy to get item, since Krieg, Inashkor, and Deathstalker relic are a target specific drop. All of that come at the cost of having lower DPS since it can’t reach 26/16 AAR and 22/12 Disintegrate.
On that spec my target is to reach 1000 cunning or 400% physical damage from cunning. The rest is either more cunning or physique. But I’ve made some change in some stat point, devotion, and equipment to the build, but I’m still too lazy to update it.
OA and DA part in grimtools will not show how many point in cunning or physique. If you mean that nothing show up when you’re hovering your mouse on grimtools then I don’t know.
I got that when I try and mouse over OA and DA I am looking for the % to hit/crit and be hit/critted.
I didn’t pay much attention to when you do conversion it might change the look of the ability ie fire only Calidor’s Tempest is red because fire is red, so what does AAR look like?
As for dps loss, its not always about what you dish out but what you can take. The best I have ever done is 59 Warlord EoR build. I shoulda died multiple times but I kept my resistances up and survived longer than I should have. Though lack of aether resistance is what got me, aether fire in Malmouth.
too funny
