Hey guys,
I am looking to create a panetti’s missile focused build but I am a total noob and am not good at making builds so I need help…what skills to invest in and how many points? what second mastery? what devotions? progression? attribute distribution? etc
Try to be as detailed as possible
PRM is Elemental damage + aether, it has no weapon damage component. This informs your guidelines.
Offensive devotions need to be ones that don’t require weapon damage. They should be +Elemental and -resists Elemental.
Get your energy regen set up. Prm can cost a lot. Once you have that casting speed is a great stat. Put something offensive on prm for a devotion.
For an Elemental prm build every sub skill for prm is good.
I like sorcerer (demolitionist) for the combo. Blast shield is awesome, flashbang is awesome. Lots of good buffs.
Don’t neglect a heavy hitter. Devastation is good. Figure out if you want reckless power or star pact.
HTHs
Check the following thread:
That seems like a nice comprehensive guide but I wonder what if I dont want rift strike…I dont want to get into melee and prefer to stay at range, how much will this negatively affect the build?
Rift strike is in that build just for convenience purposes. It has no side effect purpose that matters. You can easily use another component on your off-hand and it will improve your DPS. Your clear speed will suffer a bit since movement is so powerful for clearing but TBH that really doesn’t matter.
OTOH Chaos Strike can be used for closing but it can also be used as an escape. If mobbed you right click on an outlier and move out of the scrum. I do this a lot to escape pools of nastiness. In WOW terms “Don’t stand in the fire”, though of course it can be poison, chaos, etc.
