[V1.0] Lazy face tank PRM+Procs battlemage

Nice build. One question though, is Veterancy worth the points? Do you need the -Physique to meet item requirements?

And as far as devotion is there a rough order to follow and did you have to remove certain points and add elsewhere to make it work?

Veterancy was treated as 8/8 because I think skill points is already enough for offensive skills.

There’s no particular order for devotion except arcane bomb is only needed in ultimate difficulty.

just wondering why we don’t max the first rank of PRM–does it scale that badly?

Great build, having a blast!

Because I mainly focused on aether damage on this build, first node of PRM only does elemental damage.

I’m following this guide and having a hard time against aether resistant enemies. How do you handle those?

I’m using Haunt, also OFF + devastation does well vs aether resistant

Well Ive tried but as I’m newish to the game. I can’t work out the devotion tree. Sorry to sound a Newbi but I’ve spent the last hour trying and I just cant get it right.

No matter how much I try or what points I move about to get Devotion bonus I can not complete the Devotion tree as you have it. What am I missing ???

Spent over 2 hours on it tonight and had to farm more shards. Getting rather frustrated now lol

I cant get to Scales of Alcama and Obelisk of Menir no matter how I try… Got everything else just cant get those two…

Yeah Im a bit curious as well when I was looking over the affinity numbers. I went for aetherfire first but ill probaly spec out of that. finishing the eel i think last node gives 4%oa and res reduction. Just going one point at a time right now lol

There’s probably several ways, but here is the way I just came up with.

XR Order
Panther
-XR Order
Lizard
XR Eldritch
Hawk
XR Chaos
Viper
Behemoth
-XR Chaos
-XR Eldritch
Solemn Watcher
Ulo
Lion
Scales
-Lion
Obelisk
Widow
XR Primordial
Tree

In future use the GD build editor/planner in the Utilities section of the forum to plan the devotions, save your clusters :slight_smile:

How badly is the build affected by 1.0.0.2?

I am afraid to update and i think i will remain playing with the old build.

Thxs for the reply on the Devotion tree Caulderone. I’ve done nothing but think about it all day at work lol. And I will try and remember that in my old age CoolColJ.

Look forward to trying it out with the tree as should be.

Hello
Using Modalsouls devotion/skillbuild, at update i lost around 2k hp(sitting now at 10k) and 100 hp/sec(at 358 now) but i got an armor absorption % belt so having 99% absorption, 1400 armor rating, i feel like almost there is no difference, still can facetank multiple starmobs 3-5 together or star mobs+boss in the same time i just have to pay attention to my lowest res(vitality 39% and chaos 33%) and use hp pot when its needed

I tried today and find no big impact either, the only thing that should be noticed may be requiring more survivability in HC mode.

Sounds promising - here i go with the update :slight_smile:

@Modalsoul what do you think on replacing Solemn Watcher/Ulo with Turtle?

Any idea for BiS list in this build?

@ Glimpse- This life/regen devotion def took a hit but I hear turtles shield doesnt take into account res/armor. So if that parts true it really doesnt seem super useful imo.

Didnt know that, thanks.

I was wondering if Ulo’s is the best to use if we have nullification as well? Maybe aether fire on devastation? same dmg types plus confuse. Just speculating …throwing it out there
