Path of Chigurh's Notes

In this video, I showcase some gameplay on my Ascendant Righteous Fire character I played in Scourge League. It is one of the best builds I have ever made due to its amazingly smooth map clearing while still being fairly tanky and having good damage for end game bosses.

The reason I chose to go Scion over other more popular RF builds is because I believe the buffs to flasks in 3.16 were extremely strong, thus I believe the infinite flask sustain from Ascendant Pathfinder along with flask mastery on the skill tree is extremely strong. Scion also gives very strong AOE nodes in the center of the tree and extra skill points to path around the tree more efficiently.

An additional note I will add is that the bigger your RF is, the more damage RF does while mapping. This is because while you are running around, the mob enters your RF sooner and exit later than if you had a smaller RF, thus they are inside your RF degen for longer. This results in a 1.7 Million DPS RF outperforming some RF builds with 3+ Million DPS with concentrated effect and less investment in AOE.

This build cost around 90 exalts with 50% of the cost coming from the actual gear and 50% of the cost coming from the many Awakened gems it uses and Empower 4 gems. For people on a budget, you can run the build with lower cost gems and without the +1 chest for around 30 exalted orbs.

Defenses: *75% Physical Damage Reduction *84-85% Max Elemental Resistance *1,500 Net Life Regen *Immune to Ailments *Immune to Bleed/Poison *Immune to Stuns

Offenses: *1.7 million RF DPS while Mapping *5.0 Million Total DPS on Sirus (2.0mil Scorching Ray + 2.0mil Flame Wall + 1.0 Million Righteous Fire)
