Level 50 and Crucible

As a dot adch conjurer, I have bonus +%1000 Vitality damage and 7.38k hp(Have turtle, scala and behemoth). And i am still in normal. It is so ez for me top reach 100 but when in 100, Valdaran appears i can’t survive because it is immune to lifesteal.

So i can see my future problem from here; lifesteal immune mobs. How can i fix that problem as dot conjurer in Ultimate? Also what can i do for Valdaran?

Any tips?

Sources of All resist reduction will reduce life leech resistance.

on the devotion tree the Manticore skill will reduce all resistances.

i believe the poison bomb from the component skill reduces all resistances.

The haunt or terror ( i forget which one) has a skill that reduces life leech resistance specifically.

Ensure you juggle the type of resist reduction properly and you should be ok. :slight_smile: that is assuming you are using skills that can life leech :wink: :slight_smile:

For me just overcap lightning resistance. His attacks go from devastating to just mildly painful.

I ended up fighting him in aspirant with a level 19 pure-Crucible character (lowest level character I could manage to beat 100 waves with, but been trying to find a way to beat it with an even lower level character).

Valdaran actually wasn’t nearly as tough for that character as some of the waves preceding him, since I was prepared for that final wave (stuck partial rigid shells I found from dying a few times in previous attempts to get to wave 100 starting from level 1 in every piece of armor and tried to collect as much lightning resistance gear as I could afford after wave 90 from the shop).

The first time I fought him was with a level 24 character which I deleted since he got too experienced (wanted to beat aspirant at least before level 20) and he wrecked me, but my lightning resistance was like 12%. So I made sure the second time I got to wave 100 with the new character to collect as many rigid shells and lightning resistant gear as I could encounter on the way beforehand. He went from seeming impossible to easy after getting a healthy dose of lightning resistance.

Thanks for the info but the problem seems bigger for me .As you see 7.2hp at level 50 is huge and have tons of hp regen and with defensive devotions i am like +10 level at least… Problem lies with my playstyle(which is blocked…) %100 relying on lifesteal which is what this build is about…

But there’s DoT involved for your conjurer? I think if you got the resistances at least, he shouldn’t be able to end your life in a single hit or two, so you might just do a hit and kite around like crazy and let the DoT do its thing over time while guzzling health pots – just kinda playing it safe until you get comfortable doing it.

For the life steal it’s leech over time, not ADCtH? I never paid perfect attention but I thought ADCtH worked in that scenario (though it’s hard for me to tell with lots of my builds since they rely on high HP regen and ADCtH is more of a bonus on top) and didn’t think life leech debuffs helped for ADCtH even if it didn’t.

Black star of deceit or Manticore for lifesteal debuff. Just overcap you lightining resist. Drink a stormshroud or something. Get blood of dreeg if you haven’t

It is ADCtH as because skills say so i guess. Also the problem is wendigo totem does not start spamming heal until an enemy steps its radius. This guy keeps teleporting next to me…

I actually tried to play smart; i put totems, and soc always next to me but still it was not enough since i can’t steal anything. I will just increase my MS and try to kite like my ass is on fire.
