you have to craft another conduit until you get desired prefix for item skill modifier.
it looks pretty good, I would use spellwowen component instead of restless remains (even though you have wpn dmg on winds you still have flat life steal from off-hand)
swap seal of skies in offhand for silvercore bolts.
Max rallying cry before ascension’s modifier (clarity of purpose) because rallying cry is always up
Keep bloodfrenzy at 11/10 because 2 points for +1% casting speed not worth it.
Devotions should be fine but I really like to have either ghoul (would fit here since you deal wpn dmg) or turtle as circuit breaker. The points in blind sage does not give that much considering you have more than +3000% cold dmg anyway.
I just wanted to thank you for this guide. I have been using it and this is the most fun i have had in this game since I first discovered it pre any exapnsion.
That said I have not given the game the love or dedication i should have given it.
Yeah Grim Dawn is that kind of game where you have to spend some time to make the most out of it. And the more time you spend the more the game gives back to you.
remember that channeling skills with DoT has a wierd calculation. A better way to judge upgrades is killing target dummy time. Asterkarn dagger gives onslaught stacks, which will boost your cooldown ability damage. In this case I thought you were going for WoA + Judgement?
You have 2 too many points spent in winds of asterkarn.
Also you only have 92% armor absorb, you kinda need 100%
If you want an easy upgrade, check out the “malmouth heart” amulet from malmouth resistance faction. It will be basically one more “form of the beast skill” boosting casting speed quite much.
Now I have not checked everything but it seems like you are missing one source of “X reduced targets resistances”, like elemental storm devotion. You kinda want one source of that on all builds Actual Resist Reduction formula
I’ll test the dummy good idea thanks, I think it’s just opened my eyes to look for elemental/cold and casting speed (the seed on both wasn’t fantastic)
the ‘intangible’ value of +1m is great in niche cases but normally your sat on the boss, +3 onslaught is also good (I guess the dummy will give a better picture) but it’s awkward at times to interrupt to recast I tend to lead with judgment in campaign and winds is mostly an afterthought saved for elites +
fresh 94, just been lazy with skill points (figured i should fix resists for a screenie)
Take your point on devotions just being lazy to follow my stormfang map - I’ve also stayed clear from viper ultos but could test (I dunno how many fringe cases that will help)
Now got to either farm Killrian or pray to the rng gods for the other pieces^^
not married to the sanctified bone, just seen most cold builds do it
also wondering if I should pick up toad for beasts tbh
form of the beast works after cap right but doesn’t bring you too cap I think
yeah it is a really good placeholder! I was actually planning on using it on my playthrough with this one but decided that the green +1 berserker amulet was “good enough”
swapped back to Asterkarn Shard now Judgment is a bit less of a wet noodle
immediately encountered energy problems ^^
moved devotions around a bit and will see how they go (aim is to focus on ‘healing effects’ (initial impression are squishier - but chariot was like level 1-8 during SR)
i’m to cheap to buy a seal of annihilation but struggling with shards 28-30, Vinn seems to be quite tough (could be skill issue)
friendly with barrow holm so pants are just filling resistance but hopefully will get reapers in SR
I’m off to try and get conduit from morgoneth vendor
