Jon Snow (The Winter King) Build

very unique build!

Bro that comes off as oxymoron, you don’t really appreciate any criticism or any comments in general despite you claim it. Again for the third time you ignored all of my questions regarding the build, skills, devotions, still no answers to them…

The nemesis video you refer was on Crucible and you had all 4 Crucible only buffs… I dont even understand why are you persistant on putting that as a reference. Not everyone may have access to Crucible or play the build in it. You advertise the build over clearing Port Valbury on main game but referencing a nemesis video from Crucible to prove how good the build is it just doesnt add up… And i thought you were persistant but i guess you really havent checked the build compendium or other people’s builds at all.

All credit goes to Audiens, your Valbury run starts from Herald of Star and look where his video starts and takes him only 10 minutes compared to your 25ish run.
Minus all the energy problem and constant dying threat and difference in damage and survivability. Hope this sort of helps you understanding people’s points and feedback.

It doesn’t really help me understand Pyro, but thanks for trying :slight_smile:

Sorry not to answer your questions but your questions often don’t make sense to me. Sorry. Thanks all who liked the build, and if you didn’t like it, that’s cool too. As long as everyone’s enjoying this game :slight_smile:

Just read through all of this its amazing how much everyone here loves to touch themselves rofl just saying… it is kinda nuts might wanna drop your egos a tad bit. Just sayin

any update to this build? :rolleyes:

If you wanted to do it right you’d probably go Spellbreaker and do something like this: http://www.grimtools.com/calc/DV9ABlVj, and before anyone says “but you didn’t take Kraken!”, Kraken doesn’t really fit, and it’s not worth forcing it for what is essentially 85% all damage and 15% crit damage (Winter King is a cast speed build, after all).

Parashara, it is interesting variant of the build.
Could you clarify why so much poinst were invetsed in spirit? If I were you and had all blueprints and items, I would try something like this: http://www.grimtools.com/calc/0V04jJVm.
Of cause proposed WK build is not ideal and can be improved/optimaized, but as you can see it has minimal required DA for Ultimate, higher OA and Armor, good HP and better resistences in averall.

You shouldn’t ask, just post your upgrade :smiley:

I know this reply is over a month old but… The build as posted by Parashara is utter garbage and the others were trying to be constructive and getting stonewalled. You can’t post a terrible build guide on a public discussion space like a forum or youtube then complain when people rightfully point out that it’s bad on basically every level possible.

Kidpid just posted what is essentially a strictly superior WKM build and there’s also a pretty fleshed out guide by Sobertooth in the compendium. Of course both of those examples are using some pretty unreasonable MIs but we are talking about a build made around the granted skill from a lvl 75 legendary that demands the use of another lvl 75 purple in the weapon slot. And in practice you can still make something pretty decent using imperfect MIs and purples.

All that aside, given that Spellbreaker is basically 100% better than Trickster will ever be for WKM it makes one wonder what the hell Trickster is actually good for aside from 1 or 2 bleed builds.
