⭐ Top 20 Softcore builds, ft. HC approved section from RektbyProtoss! [1.2.0.5] (An Onion)

Ludrigan Druid (also in top 20) is quite similar, in that you put down stationary pets that shoot stuff. Very safe celestial killer.

Thanks for the recommendation! I’ll check it out!

Oh that bad boy can stand its ground too actually, it’s a tasty Shieldbreaker build (and I love Shieldbreakers)

no no no, that’s crazy, your ring is plenty good. If you feel like your DA is a bit low and you are getting peppered a bit too much increase it thru other means

Depends if you have a similiar spec overall. Post your grimtools so I can say if it’s the gear or maybe piloting factor. Also I am actually not sure of the success rate of such facetanking, maybe @grey-maybe can say how he did it.

Ludrigan is indeed the build. If you want a bit more active caster try Barrelsmith Sorc.

This is my GT!
Looking at it again, it seems like it’s because the level of pyran’s pyre equipped on the phoenix fire is low. It has damage absorption. When I looked at the build with GT, the phoenix fire was empty. And most importantly, it seems like there is a pilot issue🤮. Thanks for the build recommendation too! I was also looking at the barrelsmith sorcerer!

One little trick that I use and recommend using is optimizing your augments for that fight. Like the cost of that is really nothing but the impact can be significant. Especially if your Bleeding resist is not overcapped than plugging two 15% bleeding resist augments instead of any of your irrelevant for Ravager resist augments will help a lot. You can push it further by changing irrelevant for that fight augments to %hp or DA augments or even DA/regen ones.
Phoenix Fire will barely help against Ravager, so at this point it’s gonna be up to piloting. Dodging Sunders is a must.

EDIT: Maybe having a bigger Blast shield for the fight might help too (in theory you can sell Rebuke and Vire points for that fight).

Wow… why didn’t I think of selling vire points… I never used vire in ravager lol. I think I had a subconscious idea that I should use the build itself. I think that just putting points into blast shield would make a big difference. And the resistance value adjustment you mentioned! Now that I’ve completed one build, I need to learn how to apply it. Thank you for your kind reply!

Hi

How much issue are reflect mobs for the Avenger Warder? I play only HC

I checked Steps of Torment on Archon and there were no real issues there. Warder should be able to absorb more reflect due to higher regen and %damage absorption.

Ok sounds good :slight_smile: . Cheers

Looking to play spellbinder
Whats some of the strongest builds i can aim for in endgame?
Thanks in advance!

Right now strongest Spellbinders would probably be my Aether PRM and @nofika4u Vitality Diviner.

Thanks alot!

Is it possible to make available for download the latest update of the Evoker Saboteur, along with the Cold N&O Saboteur? I’d love to try them!

I asked Nofika to upload latest Evoker Sabo too (I don’t have it I think).

Here you go!

Thank you very much, @nofika4u ! How crazy am I if I say that I liked the Cold N&O Sabo a bit more? Both are awesome though :grinning:

As a matter of fact, @mad_lee - I would have loved to have more HP and HP regen as well on your Belgo BM, which I’ve tried and liked more than anything (I think it’s a long time dream of playing a powerful BM talking). You are an expert, and so I ask, hoping to learn a bit more: why wouldn’t your Belgo BM make the top 20 list?

Not crazy at all, N&O is an absolute beast and only got stronger since the making of this list :sweat_smile:

Belgo BM is not in the same league unfortunately. It has great single target damage (but not among the best unless you make it with fantasy items) and in general is a very quick farmer (especially if you use Markovian medal). Bottlenecks are tankiness against groups (it’s really hard to get enough hp on it plus it lacks good crowd control tools) and lack of aoe.

@mad_lee , after seeing this vid (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=peZnUXpM204) , I have to ask: can you share this lovely Spellscourge Battlemage with us?

And I wouldn’t pass up another opportunity to learn from you: why wouldn’t it make the top 20 list?
