- To me all builds are equally pointless because numbers and the degree of support are arbitrary, there are various ways to play endgame whereas the process of making and optimizing a build is universal so one can simply choose not to be a slave of what’s best supported / performance.
- It’s very relative - i.e. it could be said any non-BK Bone Harvest, i.e. Aether one of yours.
Also the feeling is not the only thing as there’s also the visual aspect for example Korvan Wyrm with yellow Physical Primal Strike and Inquisitor Seal. And one can help themselves with modding if the game doesn’t differentiate some (skill, damage type) combo well.
Why one would even play it over optimized Raka’Jax Vindicator or, more generally, some spam pass-through Primal Strike?

One other thing is by making memes sometimes discoveries are made and you cannot just limit the creative process to what seems to be best supported / viable / practical because it would be the same as i.e. cutting funds to 99% of Theoretical Mathematics because only 1% of it has any use in the real world as it would negatively impact all of it and we would still be living in caves:
- Also what’s a meme one day can be the strongest build another day and you never know when it’s getting buffed. Again, as it’s arbitrary it doesn’t really matter to me and just making the build in Grim Tools is great fun on its own since there are so many things to analyze / fine-tuning to be done.
You may answer “Well I don’t say not to make those builds” but then your message comes down to “You having fun here in this way is pointless” or “Make those builds but don’t be so urgent / don’t expose / round them the up”. However this would make your post even more pointless so I’ve chosen not to interpret your message this way and tried to extract the part one can discuss with.
