can someone explain to me why would someone choose dreeg’s affliction over malediction? i have a witch hunter poison build and it seems like malediction > dreeg’s affliction
its kinda weird tho because dreeg’s affliction is supposed to be an upgrade of malediction somehow, no?
Malediction is geared towards weapon-based Acid/Poison characters. Dreeg’s Affliction is geared towards casters that arn’t stacking flat damage and hybrid Retaliators (like Daega users) a bit as the granted skill can be a potent shotgun.
Not really no. Don’t take Dreeg’s Affliction having a higher item level to be an inherent sign that it is or should be strictly better. Both relics fill different niches and can be used at end game.
EXPLAINED: +1 to all skills in occultist
hm okay kinda makes sense i guess
depends. Are you melee or some DEE build.
Either way unless you need the + skills in occult Outbreak could be better than either

here’s my build :d
Ah a retal hybrid. Dreeg it is then 
How is it doing?
how is it a retal hybrid? xD
i am kinda noob. this is my first character and its my own build haha
surprisingly its not a total mess, it’s working fine but im nowhere near the end game gear i think
You are doing great then
I saw the weapon and bramble and thought you were going for some retal hybrid thing …also pants boots and belt all have retal
Basically mixing normal acid/poison dmg and retal values for same dmg types. That is a retal hybrid
haha yeah it actually happened… i dont know how but my weap+shield are like the best i could get for this combo. i have gotten so many items i could swap for but everything seemed not to work as well as this dagger+shield
i’m open to suggestions btw xD
I have no idea how your buuild performs to suggest anything
It could be one of those quirky builds that work. Do you run crucible with it?
i havent ran crucible since quite some time.
my main issue is bleeding resistance atm, i cant find a way to boost it
and i also have fucked up in ultimate i decided it was a good time to get hostile on outcast and fight for kymon’s chosen which kinda messed up my choices for augments. outcast had some good ones for my build apparently
Bloodied Crystals would help but as I see you’re low on Pierce resistance as well, you might want to keep an eye out for these.
damn such a good one
yeah i was thinking i might need to sacrifice some damage to get a bit more tanky cuz char is super squishy right now and if i get stunned or cornered i’m probably dead
