Dark one set gives now dmg bonus for wendigo Totem. Any one tried it?
I never played a vita dmg hero. I want to try one. I already farmed the set and its in my stash. But I dont know if i should go:
Cabalist or ritualist or reaper
Cabalist seems the standard way to go. Occultist gives a lot of nice extras. Look at all the nice stuff: free OA, free Acid resistance, free physical resistance, dmg absorption, chaos resistance
Shaman gives better resist reduction! 30% extra Health, more armor, free pierce and aether resistance
nightblade seems bad on paper. But some guys says that phantasmal blades skill is one of the strongest spells in the game. you can shotgun enemies.
For me now the question is: how good is wendigo totem now with all the buffs from the dark one set?
The occultist passives seems to be way stronger as the shaman stuff. But with shaman you get nearly twice as much resistance reduction and wendigo totem now as extra dmg skill
With occultist you get better passive boni and bloody pox as extra dmg skill. How good is bloody pox? Is bloody pox good enough? Or will the new wendigo totem destroy everything?
If you look at the numbers. Wendigo totem with the set does: 525 base vita dmg. Without all the mods. That`s a lot.
As example the other base vita dmg numbers without %scaling
Bloody pox: 117, great aoe
Sigil: 110, bad, no movement
phantasmal blades: 240average, multiple projectiles, can shotgun
devouring swarm: 65, ultra resistance shred
storm totem: 215average, - big dmg - big aoe
siphon souls: 262, - ui! a lot base dmg
ravenous earth: 242 - multiple projectiles, can shotgun
bone harvest 204 - ui! surprise how much base dmg some skills do
— same post as in the reddit Hope i will get some tips and answers. Biggest question is:
Is bloody pox good enough as extra dmg skill? Is wendigo totem now strong? Is more RR with devouring swarm better as the passive boni you get from occultist? Or is phantasmal blades soo strong that everything else does not matter? – reminder: I only got the dark one set, not the stuff to make a ultra endgame build :)))
