I wouldn’t worry that much of the lack of Ascension.It has low uptime and damage absorption is not that important on retal builds.The bad thing is that you can use clarity to increase OA.
About Guardians,since it’s hard here to proc Assassins mark often the -4% physical RR actually does matter.
Clarity will allow you to bypass the OA problem. Phys retal can have 2600-2700 OA, easily, rest comes from procs and it’s all good.
Ascension, besides absorb, gives an excellent boost to retal damage and some good CC resists too. Do not diss it so slightly.
I know it’s a personal build, it’s fine.
Btw, Judgment is also not here. Now this is actually a biiiig mistake with it having a tremendous DA reduction you can again, bypass the low OA lock. Add some Clarity and the build can crit very well.
But since it’s just for fun, this is only an advice from me.
Aye, I don’t build around efficiency but around something you can play with one hand, drunk and while watching Netflix or reading a book if you wanted to. Hence the questionable choices.
Anyway, Took Malawiglenn’s suggestion on Messenger and Assassin’s. Replaced with Boar as BearedMagician said.
Build got tankier or atleast feels that way (I am not sure since it is Warlord ). Also Kill times remain the same both on Crucible and Callagadra.
Retal is strange thing.I made hybrid though,which was the first build I see,that can finish SR 75,but not Crucible 170
Your next build,I recommend is retal Opressor.You hate Spectral binding for pets,but it will be really good as retal.Passive RR from both classes and also extra OA.
Anyway, I did SR with the new setup, managed to pull Kymon + Benny > Died hilariously.
Went in again, pulled the entire room, face tanked everything without even dropping below 75% Hp…
I have no idea what I am doing…
8 active skills only for pushing SR. Normally I only hold RMB lol = lazy. After all it’s a Spin2Win 120k EoR + 450K retal damage = lazy. Previously played a pure phys retal Warlord = not so lazy and relatively slow, especially after the nerfs.
