Tips for Ultimate

Hi guys,

I recently completed the 4th Act on Elite and thus unlocked Ulitmate Since the content of the addon was way to hard for me , I began playing fresh from Ultimate. Since this is probably the time for min maxing, I would like to know what I could do to improve my build :

I use this build as my template :

I think I should boost my resistancens, maybe with sockets ? and also my cunning is very low, so I cannot wear some weapons I find. I guess I should look to increase cunnign aswell until I can wear better weapons ?

thanks for any help and sorry for any bad questions :slight_smile:

Most of what I’m going to suggest has already been said by rorschach:

-I recommend pushing your mastery bars further for more core stats, I usually have these where I want them (50/25 or 50/32 minimum) by level 50.

-Use components already for more resistances.

-Grind to level 70 and Revered on at least 1 faction (preferably more for more options) for armour augments. While you’re at it, look at weapon/accessory augments too for resistances/damage boosts.

-Begin working on an end-tier relic.

-Get better armour/more of it/% physical resistance and some absorption (Scaled Hides are good for this). At 500 Armour, 70% absorption and 3% physical resistance, physical damage is going to obliterate you. I recommend looking at level 65 faction gear from Barrowholm/Coven of Ugdenbog/Malmouth Resistance. You may want to also consider spending a bit of time farming gear in Elite too.

You mean something like Agrivix’s Malice ? Where can I get the blueprint though

In my experience, chests at the end of rogue-likes and Treasure Troves are great for Blueprints, try one of those.

If you don’t mind as well, you can always gather the materials and post in the trading thread asking for someone to craft it for you in a Multiplayer game - personally, I have done several crafts for others and had others do even more crafts for me :stuck_out_tongue:

is it easier to farm materials on a certain difficulty ? eg is the drop rate for tainted brain matter on a higher difficulty

and thanks a lot btw

The way to get an easy relic, is to do the lost elder quest:

This relic will boost your primary stats, and this is a good and easy start.
