The fastest solo Mog kill was held by a pet build in vanilla. It was so good that they had to nerf it, of course Super Bosses are still doable with Pet builds

Sneaky Parrot is way to lazy to compile it all into a proper guide
Snazzblaster, Safarel and thepowerofmediocrity are some of the well known active pet build experts who may know of more builds that can do Super Bosses

There are other famous names but they’re way too inactive

EDIT

I knew your username looked familiar

I’m too lazy. Chthon already did. You can stop talking stupid bullshit now.

You are a joke - Did you even look at the stats mentioned on this build?

http://www.grimdawn.com/forums/showthread.php?t=68079

he has 40% OA and 10% DA on his build.
my build has 90% OA 30% DA and unlike this build I actually have the resists maxed out

Did you even look at this build before posting and giving it as example? I can post a level 10 build and say it can do Ravager on ultimate that doesn’t mean is true.

If you can’t do it with 90% OA and 30% DA then there is some sort of optimization fault on your end in which case you should post a grimtools of your build

OR

Your a lousy pilot of a pet build.

Parrot’s build literally has a video of him doing it.

Do you really think DA solves everything? This build you posted has okay defenses (would also say strong) and massive HP bonus, so most of his pets (not counting skeletons, because their base health is quite low) have 200k HP. Mogdrogen won’t hit that much in a split second, and he can even heal them with Blood of Dreeg.

Stop trying to prove us wrong, because you make no real sense nor know what you’re talking about.

Yeah I agree

Belo is a reply by him during a similar discussion. This guy is likely either clueless about what works and doesn’t work in this game OR has trouble piloting his own build. Not a new case and not beyond help but he doesn’t look like the open minded type to me.

Also notice that he never shared a GT link with us of his build in the other thread

You seriously believing that guy Parrot was able to defeat lokarr in 13 seconds having 22K to 45K crits when Lokarr himself has
4,538,945 life?

You really believe this is a valid kill? Hah you are funny then. Fyi I have an elementalist with 5.1K DA come join me ingame and you will see me on HC. Was able to do Ravager and Mogdrogen until this patch. Just because I didn’t upload a build doesn’t mean I’m not able to do it.

Oh stucking ravager behind a tree. Using exploits to defeat Ravager? Another funny thing. Thats as good as cheating. Defeat him fair and square not using exploits. Lol… In path of exile you play the boss and dodge the boss by having high movement speed skills not by making the boss stuck and blocking him from attack or from doing anything. That is not a valid kill

I don’t care if you have a 10k OA build. You raised the issue about pet builds being weak, it’s your job to provide us with a Grimtools link.

Also, if you see a video and still can’t believe it then it is obvious you have no idea how the game works and more importantly must have some seriously messed up thought process to believe that every video poster has nothing better to do than lie about something as trivial as a game.

You’re not the first to come in with this attitude and unfortunately won’t be the last. Either you could join those who admitted to being at fault and became better players OR you could keep ranting pointlessly and fade into obscurity.

JUST BECAUSE YOU’RE SAYING THAT YOU’RE ABLE TO DO IT DOESN’T MEAN WE’LL BELIEVE IT WITHOUT PROOF. IF YOU THINK A VIDEO IS NOT ENOUGH PROOF WHILE YOU YOURSELF DON’T PROVIDE ANY FOR YOUR CASE THEN THERE MUST BE SOMETHING GOING ON WITH YOUR BRAIN CELLS THAT’S KINDA NEGATIVE.

GETTING CHEAP DEFENSES? EXPLOITING GAME MECHANICS SO RAVAGER CAN’T HIT YOU? ANOTHER FUNNY THING. THAT’S AS GOOD AS CHEATING! DEFEAT HIM USING EVERYTHING THE GAME HAS TO OFFER NOT BY RANTING CAUSE YOU STRAT GOT NERFED. LOL… IN LITERALLY EVERY GAME CREATED YOU PLAY THE BOSS AND KILL THE BOSS USING WHATEVER THE GAME HAS TO OFFER AND GETTING GUD NOT BY EXPECTING EVERYTHING TO BE SPOONFED TO YOU. THAT IS NOT A VALID REASON TO RANT.

geez I’m not replying to this again.

Seen the video, where is the build link? Where is the video with Cabalist vs Mogdrogen Ultimate? I haven’t seen that one. All I seen is Ravager stuck in a tree.

Your keyboard is stuck on CAPS? hahahaah You are funny. Go to sleep kidd! On his exploit video he used ruby amulet because he had the buffs, however on his linked build - magic - there no ruby amulet equipped and he has crappy gear equipped.

Man, they didn’t even look at the video the guys is using totally different skills than the one linked.

In this link as amulet he used Eye of Beronath
https://www.grimtools.com/calc/r2BkQmbV

Yet in another video where he defeated Ravager he used Ruby Amulet that gives buffs to pets. No items is shown at the end of the video.

They take everything from granted re-posting some video by some guy that maybe isn’t even his build.

Yeah, we spent all that time revising pet skills and Crucible scaling for pets cause we wanted to cover up how we actually killed pet builds. You figured us out!

Necromancer is literally the strongest pet mastery right now, though ideally not by so much anymore.

Once you’re done raging at anybody that disagrees with you, maybe others at the forum can offer you advice.

Zantai, it would be nice if you buff up guardian of death gates(skill buff) in the next patch, it’s still not very viable for ritualist right now. And i found out cabalist has more flat pet damage sources than ritualist, plz give ritualist some love! Morguul’s mortality would be a nice add-on if it has plus one skill to shaman. Plz give ritualist a set!(more and more and more nice stuffs:p:p:p:p:p:p:p:p)

Lazy Cthun, too lazy to type another O;):p:p:p:rolleyes::rolleyes:

I am not going to engage the OP because he’s obviously just trolling but as far as general pet discussion goes:

I wonder how Ritualist stacks up to Cabalist now. Primal Bond, Primal Spirit, and Briarthorn all saw some pretty significant buffs. Losing Curse of Frailty is rough, but the survivability of pets with a Shaman is really nice, especially since keeping your pets alive is incentivized now in Crucible. My Conjurer definitely feels stronger. I like the flat damage stacking you can do with a Conjurer especially with a Fleshwarped Bulwark. I am using Nature’s Call with two level 20 Briarthorns and it is pretty effective. Totem pairs well with Briarthorn too since you can get pretty crazy life on them.

I need to decide if I want to finish my Ritualist or my poison pets Cabalist first…

I mean, I don’t disagree with it at all, but Skeletons are so fucking annoying. They die almost instantly all the time, my other pets have 90 - 100% HP and those stupid fucks, I mean those stupid skeletons die fast even if they have okay defense. Playing on Elite. Last time I played, poison was killing my skeletons all the time, and poison is my only weakness, but Briarthorn, Skeletal Servant (relic), Blight Fiend and a fire skeleton from an off-hand didn’t give a fuck at all about it. They could stay in poison for 5 - 10 seconds, with 15% resist only, and then eventually die, while skeletons died after 2 seconds no matter what. :stuck_out_tongue:

I just wish Skeletons would get a HP buff, but as you can summon multiple of those, I doubt that’ll ever happen as they have high damage to compensate that. Yes, I prefer tanky stuff and I actually think about cheating and removing Necromancer mastery because of that. :stuck_out_tongue:

Pet builds are not dead, they can reach high tier of damage but problem lies somewhere else. CRATE hates lazy pet builds thus they are forcing cooldowns like sheperd’s call, holw of mog, nature’s guardian, dying god and wants us to sync them with our cooldowns. You can hardly become lazy while using pets. You have to keep summon skelies,raven, blight friend and hound for either damage or suvivability. They want pet builds to be ACTIVE all the time and it is tiring. It just ruins the purpose of pet builds. There is only 1-2 PURE LAZY pet build and they are OK.

Correct style of pet builds must like this; moderate damage, all kiting and that is it. You are already paying the price of not having too much fun due to build style. You chose to play it like this. Not damaging, watching you pets do the stuff is less fun than dealing damage by yourself. Even with that, i like pet builds. Thus constantly trying to keep cooldowns sync is more annoying on top of it. Also don’t link builds that require tons of perfect gear and becomes slightly better than OK. With proper gear, any build has chance and is more fun.

Just add a transmuter to skellies that combines all 7 into 1 with 10x hp, 10x damage (OUTSIDER) and now it will make me want to play skellies.

I have a ritualist build right now, damage wise——inferior, cuz shaman gives way less flat damage than occultist.

Survivability wise—-inferior (hard to overcapp chaos and aether res by30), it has great pierce and bleed res, but these resistances are not important in front of harder contents)

Ritualist has a really like really hard time to Cap skeleton skills.

Ritualist right now is not even campaign friendly(if you are starting new) due to lack of pet health (you need really dreamy MIs for AOM content even Log and croney)

The difference between flat damage of a cabalist and ritualist is insane——example——-ritualist’s skeles, Crit at 3.0 from 6k-15k while cabalist Crit at 1.8 from 18k-25k.

Zantai, Plz buff guardian of deathgates(plus2 to shammy necro skills) or this parrot is gonna roll on the grass like wild fire! I’m really scary right now!:furious::p:D

I play my pet builds in pretty lazy fashion and it works well. Actually, since hard points invested are more worthwhile in mastery pets and their abilities with this patch lazy builds are better off than ever. On my Cabalist I only cast Curse and Reap Spirit for Shepherd’s and Mogdrogen’s and that works fine. Oh though I do also have Blood of Dreeg on a macro.
