Nature's Call Regalia +X to Summon Briarthorn

Yes, tested it on Cally, was still like 18m+

Can you give some % dps increase perhaps? Its like if I said “Ravager is still +5 min” with my warlord :stuck_out_tongue:

I didn’t really bother testing that. Since experiment was a failure the moment it went past 15mins

It would still provide helpful number for further adjustments. My idea is 100% reduced armor on the proc :stuck_out_tongue: :wink:

But I am serious on staying on 1.1.8.1 unless I decide to play a mod though. :woman_shrugging:

do a game backup, “come into the light”/join the dark side in 1.1.9, see what you can make happen (tho as always i’m more waiting for the final itteration of a patch ie 1.1.9.1) - and if you really hate it you can just swap in your 1.1.8.1 version back :blush:

This was the closest a Briar was killed by Ravager of Flesh

Ravager is easy mode on pets though.

Says something about how broken pet builds are :smiley:

It has been like that for ages. Even Skeletons can kill Ravager easily…

And fast too I suppose.

Pets true challenge is naked Crucible with extra spawns. I did one successful run with my Winter birds but with lots of kiting and 10 minutes time :sweat_smile:

Skeletons are slow on ravager actually, atleast compared to other pet builds.

13 min and some seconds. I took some breaks to dry my hands and the accuracy of the seconds is therefore not top notch.

  • NOTE I did nothing special for calla, this is regular set-up.
  • And also note, this is not a bleed based pet build, I tried to keep it as pure physical as possible.
  • And further note, I am by no means even decent at pet builds - this is just something I threw together after gathering some nice greens on other chars and thought “hey physical pet builds suck they say, let’s see what that means compared to other kind of builds” xD

Sometimes, Briars go from 100% to 0% hp in 1 second against her :slight_smile:

I have hesitated posting this shit build, because there are way better pet builds to consider. Happy for any kind of feedback!

Something I need to point out. Your choice of greens actually fixed part of the problem.
65% total damage modifier on a Pet build with already 1.5k Pet attack on top of all the RR + armor shred = those 15 Phys dmg sources actually do something rather than get canceled out by enemy armor.

Also, the CDR on Briarthorn is a tremendous boost against Cally.

So now that you did show the build, I can safely say that I believe those numbers. Could be faster with GDStashed affixes for perfect rolls and such even.

Yeah I have considered to try a GD-stashed version as well. Perhaps also test with and without Maul proc active, similar as I did with my Warlord.

DR on Briar? You mean DR on Hellhound? (ok you edited, CDR on Briar yeah it is very nice)

Calla can go down a bit quicker with other ring/amulet augments too.

Maybe I do a build thread for this one, wanna record some videos too and get some feedback on my piloting.

BTW, this is like the 3rd time I ask this, is the “total damage modified” also accounting for the pets skills (ground slam) and devotions attached to pet?

I wish you all a happy weekend and I salute you with a tanky birb

(EDIT: I tried to beat the time now, was too greedy and died :frowning: )


@Gnomish_Inquisition basically that was my idea when I made my build “just get + briar” :smiley:

I was going to type CDR, but missed the C :rofl:

It should although I am only 99% sure.

Thanks, but my Birbs look like this now:

(They are in their emo phase)

THanks, interesting idea on the maul.

Your rings are gorgeous, never ever had anything close.

Bit defensive setup, but since it works, then it’s great!

I prefer more agressive setup with bleed rings: https://www.grimtools.com/calc/RVvRo5JV

Probably with the nerf to Primal Spirit there is no sense in going Oleron, will need to respec the devotions.

Pity we can’t get Mogdrogen and Ishtak together (at least without many sacrifices).
