As title says. I’m just leveling right now and would appreciate thoughts on what’s planned.(https://www.grimtools.com/calc/w26b3x72)

Edit: Just rearranged devotion bindings, currently considering finding a way to fit in twin fangs. (https://www.grimtools.com/calc/lV7bB6b2)

Edit 2: Redid devotions and traded phoenix for twin fang and giant’s blood (https://www.grimtools.com/calc/m23bJejN)

Edit 3: Did devotions again as i forgot inspiration, decided hyrian’s glare is more important than phoenix. (https://www.grimtools.com/calc/YVWnL852)

Interesting how much different gear slots reduce the cooldown.

I had a build like this with olexra’s flash freeze for -100% fire res, thats the only thing i could see making a big difference. i don’t know how far into leveling you are.

I haven’t killed Warden Krieg on normal yet. And yeah, it’s kinda nuts; I’ve even tried to do the same with other cooldown skills.

Looks very good to me apart from one thing. Devotions skills are not bound optimally in my opinion.

1st of all Judgment is your best and insane proccer - 100% chance for Meteor, Elemental Storm, 75% for Eldritch Fire.

Hard for me to say what is optimal without testing in on a single Dummy in Homested (I recommend it but watch out for Thermite Mines not proccing anything unless you use Pet Attack on Them)

I would probably skip Vire’s Might and only use it to move/engage not to proc stuff,
also skip Canister Bomb because using skill just to proc is something we should try to avoid
and use these skills to proc things and be a more mid-ranged character:

  • Judgment (to Elemental Storm (sweet 100%) or Eldritch Fire (75%) because it’s the hardest to proc but only -23% Fire? but would be the quickest Eldritch Fire applications probably)

  • Stormfire (might be good on Eldritch Fire, multiple projectiles and EF spreads but it depends on your casting speed and how often you use it although I would test it vs Thermites Mine on a single targets maybe to Elemental Storm if Judgment is bound to Eldritch)

  • Thermite Mines (Meteor / Eldritch Fire / Elemental Storm)

  • Guardians of Empyrion (probably to Phoenix Fire because Guardians are a bit slow and clunky and Meteor is good ok too I guess althouth maybe Stormfire to Phoenix Fire you you’re taking Phoenix Fire not for stats but for the proc and you’d like to prioritize the faster application)

If you need more healing later down the line you can try incorporate Bat
Use Gargoyle Girdle for 100% Piercing to Fire conversion and very good Bat Healing
Bat on 0.7s Judgment is insane! 100% Twin Fangs proc every 0.7 seconds

I wouldn’t use all these single Aether resistance augments. Better use Aether + Poison, Aether + Chaos etc to better overcap your other resists

I’ll have another look at the devotions. I never considered twin fangs so i’ll see if I can add that.
