I developed this build of elementalist with the goal of beating all 3 superbosses with no-MI, no-pharma doping, and no-kiting, but unfortunately Mogdrozen can only be defeated by kiting and it takes too much time. For my other no-MI/no-doping 3 superbosses killers(Warder, WarLord, WitchBlade, DeathKnight, Pet Conjurer), see here :
(All my superboss killers are actually better in 1.2.1.0. Only the Warder and Conjurer required minor skill rebalancing. I’ll post the revision next)

Also, my hero is not a mage, as the term elementalist implies. He’s a melee character who wields a two-handed club, so his Devotion is a bit odd. The original Devotion was less odd, but due to the mana drain in the fight against Ravager of Flesh, Devotion became a bit odd to deal with it.
And now, I present my Baffling Elementalist
(See my comment for why it’s “Baffling”)

My comment
a) I used my Warder as a model for development of this build. i.e. I tried to take down Calagadra and Ravagar with no pharma doping “with moderate physical resist and strong health regeneration”, but it was a very difficult character. Even with the same physical resist and twice the health regeneration as Warder, I couldn’t beat the superbosses; I needed higher physical resist than a typical soldier-based warrior. I’m sure it’s because of the relatively low DPS and the ridiculously low DA, Even armor absorption is not 100%, it’s 92%.I have a vague suspicion that the reason Calagadra can be taken down despite my elementalist’s terrible DA, Armor Rating, and Armor Absorption is because of the Searing Light and Wind Devil skills in addition to his high Physical Resist & high health regeneration. Those skills contain a set of so-called evasion subskills. i.e. “25% chance for target to fumble attacks for 5 sec” and “25% chance for impaired Aim to target for 5 sec”, and “42% chance for impaired Aim to target for 3 sec”. However, honestly, I still don’t really understand this Baffling & mysterious elementallist.
b) If I replace the medal with Korvaak’s Brand, my DPS goes up to 195000, but I can’t beat calagadra and Ravagar with no pharma doping. I tried many things with Korvaak’s Brand, but sadly all of them failed.
If you have any improvements to this build, I would be very grateful to hear them in the comments. Also, if someone can use Korvaak’s Brand to make this build even more powerful, I would be very grateful.
