I know, chaos blade arc isn’t the thing able to kill big boys like ravager, but I just want to get the maximum possible DPS without loosing the suvivability.
Most of the gear isn’t BiS, it’s just what I have in may stash (I may have overlooked smth recently farmed, but anyway I’m still missing lots of endgame gear)
So, feel free to spill some good ol’ critics on my creation and to suggest other devotin setups/better gear/anything, that can improve this horribly low OA.
Sorry for my bad english, hope it’s understandable without suffering:rolleyes:
OA and DA are a little bit higher in game, but anyway, everything is much better now, so thank you all for the alternative devotion path - especially for opening my eyes on the awesome manticore devotion. Now it would be very nice if someone could give some advices about BiS gear for the build. I have ideas, like swapping deathguard vigil to some MI-ring or voidheart or even both rings to Judicator set, using MI-shoulders (hunting Benn’Jahr is so boooooring), getting a darkblaze ammo belt and a better weapon (Obsidian War Cleaver, or Gutcrush Warmaul with good rolls, or Mythical Obsidian Juggernaut) but… I think, that I could missed some nice pieces, cuz of luck of experience.
I’m not a Soldier expert, so I’ll not comment on that and I realize that you are trying to make do with the gear you have found; so maybe not at all helpful.
A few things:
Why are you taking Curse of Frailty + Vun?
RE: Self-found:
-I think for 2H an Obsidian Cleaver MI could work better. Easy to farm and they drop like flies. High phys, high flat chaos, no pierce conversion. Magic prefix/suffix like Vampiric of Alacrity drops fairly frequently, or whatever.
Have you considered moving some points into Hellhound to maximize its hellfire aura for some flat chaos +%chaos aura? Dunno if it provides enough benefit.
Edit: wait… is pierce conversion on weapons very last, so in this case = 0 when using Blade Arc with conversion? If so, then your wpn is maybe better. You’d have to check the numbers.
Yay, looks nice, but this way I’ll loose way too much crit damage. Though, I’ll take a shot at reconfiguring devotion and putting points into cunning. TY
Yup, trying to get one with good rolls, but everything seems to give me less damage + scythe of tenebris gives dat sweet +OA
I might give it a try but will I get enough survivability for the hound without any pet bonuses?
Eldritch Gaze gives me full phys to chaos conversion on blade arc and on the weapon damage tooltip I have no pierce damage, so EG conversion appears first, I guess
If you can stick Manticore’s proc, it would give >25% more overall damage on bosses, etc. Bit less defence, but mind that Wayward Soul is only up 1/3 of the time. But ymmv if you like the heal.
Also: 1 final note:
-you may want to play around with 1 point in bloody pox with a point in Fevered Rage. You need to be comfortable with Fevered and it can be dangerous, but when used well and timely will put you in the 30% crit chance range on mobs (due to the -25% DA on mobs). You could test it or ignore this advice.
