[1.1.7.1] Har'Zin's 2H Ranged/Doooom Bolt Deceiver - Crucible Farmer with 1.600k Crits (3Buffs;1Banner)

I am running this build pretty much 1:1, with a slight variation on boots. What is your highest SR completed? I seem to be stalled at 62 and am curious how others have fared.

I just tried this build, and i really like it. However i couldnt manage to kill Ravager of flesh. Is it just me or do you also die at him?

I will try Mogdrogen and the other celestials in near future, lets se if i have more succes with them.

Hi everyone! I love this build, I think Doombolt is cool as hell. How is it holding up today in March 2020? Any changes?

Thanks again for sharing your build

Does anyone have recommendations for leveling this build? Iā€™m doing a caster Doombolt / Flames of Ignaffar build for the early game

I would start with Word of Pain to delete crowds of mobs, add Pox and Curse of Frailty. Later either nuke skill or procs, cause bosses will be taking some time to be killed. Flames of Ignaffar can deal damage but how youā€™ll sustain it?

I use 3 or 4 ectoplasm components to sustain Ignaffar, they give you energy and energy regen like mad :slight_smile:

I havenā€™t tried Word of Pain or Pox yet, Iā€™ll give it a whorl! Since my first post Iā€™ve reached level 37 and Iā€™ve got a good chunk of points in Doom Bolt, Possession, Second Rite, and Flames of Ignaffar. 2 points in Sigil of Consumption for situational leech.

It does big damage, but by Cā€™thon is it frail :frowning: I was sorta hoping itā€™d level like a ranged Purifier build but the Deceiver doesnā€™t have a basic attack he can use for ranged weapons so the damage wasnā€™t good going that route.

For now, Iā€™ll switch from Ignaffar to Word of Pain and Pox, as you suggested.

By the way you could totally combine Pain with another skill like Ignaffar.

In terms of attack replacer, you can use Shard of Beronath at level 55 I think. Before that your only option is the skill from ā€˜ā€˜Trollā€™ā€™ relic - Mistborn Talisman. But I doubt it will be better than caster route. I intend to level Purifier as ranged - 2H gun fire spec. Also Vindicator can be good with Thunderous Strike and 2H lightning weapon.

Ah yeah Shard of Beronath is a melee component though, and this build is wayyyyy too squishy for melee. I was hoping for a ranged basic attack skill, like Fire Strike, that way I can start using those nifty inquisitor ranged passives.

Alas, I shall have to wait until I can equip that Rah Zin crossbow atā€¦

Level 94? ā€¦ wait, that sucks. I canā€™t use this build as intended until lvl 94? Oh man, this is gonna hurt for a looooong time. What a drag.

is it?

Thank you! I was misled by the wiki. Also, I totally overlooked the earlier reccomendation of Troll Rage from the Mistborn Talisman, which I am currently using to dual wield bloodsworn repeaters as a level :smiley:

the wiki is very outdated. Use Grim Tools for items and skills description

Wrong wiki - you want this one.

Does this build need any updates for 1.1.7.0?

Beautifully optimized, Iā€™m going to use your build as Iā€™m starving for some shooting action.

How about Hydra + Eye of the Guardian for even more healing?
Sailor can be taken instead of Panther but then OA is not maintained.

For levelling this build do you recommend bloody pox or word of pain? Iā€™m looking forward to trying this build out since I actually have almost all of the pieces. Will this build do well against Lokarr?

I suggest you use Rune of Kalastor/Rune of Hagarrad (Artifact Handling, Aura of Censure, Vulnerability) for leveling.
Killing Lokarr is no problem. Easy tanking. Overcap fire res by 40 (added video).

Hello, Poisonman2. Thank you for the build.
Would you swap Ignaffarā€™s combustion for Solaelā€™s decimation for a ~220 OA boost or is it rather unnecessary in this case?

P.S. In case you wouldnā€™t trade aforementioned relicsā€¦ Iā€™ll ask another question. Would you swap Combustion band for a second Voidheart?

Hello, donā€™t underestimate rr (resistance reduction). To answer your questions, no i wouldnā€™t. Why would you swap Combustion Band for a second Voidheart?
