and try to make a full build around the item, or the weak side of the item described in the thread (if there is a description like “this item is fine but this skill mod on it sees no use” then try to build around the weak skill mod).
By getting you creative bastar- wonderful people to make builds around some of these items, we can really start pinning down what we want on these items for future patches!
People who enjoy build crafting more than testing the builds can play too! If you make a solid looking grimtools link I or others will try to get around to testing it later and put feedback here. When you post your build please include which item from the above item feedback links you used in your build. Please discuss how that item particularly performed on your build, why you enjoyed it, why you don’t pick other items over it. Thank you!
Community building around items we don’t see much of project… GO!
Indeed, that’s pretty cool. But I think the lightning cadence side is the one that people struggled to make good. I’m curious how that build performs after 1.1.4.1 as well. And what needs to be tuned down if it’s still easily sub 6.
But you actually did me quite a favor using the sword, since it definitely is BiS on my Cyclone SB
Regarding the OP: I like your idea! I think I’ll try to build around some of those two-handed ranged pieces this weekend. I’m not even sure I could, off the top of my head, name you more than three 2h ranged builds that are actually good right now even without looking at how certain individual pieces might be underpowered…
2H Physical dmg EoR Warlord with Gutsmasher https://www.grimtools.com/calc/eZP7ydgV
Yes, Gutsmasher “is an EoR weapon” and there is no (physical) 2H EoR build with this weapon in the compendium (or elsewhere on this forum)
Still work in progress I guess, I have killed Mad Queen a few times. Will try my usual suspects Lokarr and Gargabol soon and then Crucible.
Let me know if you want the char folder for own amusement and testing and I will zip it and upload to my google drive.
More people get in here! Here’s a challenge: Build around the non-set shoulders!
@arcane_undo so how do you feel about your build? Have you tried in SR or crucible? @malawiglenn finally got around to it. I found it frustratingly soft hitting for an EoR build, and thus it’s kind of vulnerable as a result. Fine for campaign. Dunno what should be done about it. EoR was hitting like 13k crits
While it can be improved, it still needed certain green affixes to give as acceptable resists as possible, but my feedback is mostly towards the 1h. It lacks some pollishing, should probably be a dagger, with better conversion (higher overall %vitality/decay damage and 100% vitality wp damage).
3 videos showing the build in action, but I did not waste time in crucible/SR, knowing it will die easily/poor performance.
Yeah but you know I go by either crucible time or SR performance… “fine” it too vague for me since campaign is campaign. I’m looking at it closer. Ah it has pretty darn good RR. Ugh I have too many things to test and no time.
So, I tried Mythical Venomblood Mantle (and to a lesser extent Mythical Bloodfury Spaulders, another non-set shoulders, I don´t know if used (Vitality?)) on my bleeding builds.
Short answer: No.
Breaking up Bloodrager makes no sense. Even if you would put an insane amount of RR (30 %+) to some skills on these shoulders, you could only open up some bleeding builds not seen before like Bleeding Blademaster e. g. Would it be a good build? Don´t know but don´t think so.
I have absolutely no clue how to make them viable (even with the crafting bonus of Vileblood Mantle). For me they are leveling placeholders.
How much were you using the relic ability? How was it?
Vampirris is solid, but surprised you could enjoy the reap spirit angle of it. Then again reap spirit has gotten so many buffs.
Happy to hear about the above, please tell me more about its gameplay.
I still want others to make builds with the non-set shoulders. Frostdread turns out to be fine but what of the others?
Finally, if people want to have some fun, I might make a thread where a build is posted per conduit bonus we haven’t already seen.
