3.24 Necropolis - PB/EB Inquis - In Progress Video - Part 2

NOTES --------- PB of Dissipation Still Good, but weaker. Should you league start this? No If you find yourself ignoring that advice, you'll need: - Ghostwrithe - First Lab - Instruments of Virtue - Energy Blade - Penance Brand of Dissipation Ideally: - Shaper's Touch - Crown of the Inward Eye - Cyclopean Coil (% Attributes) Recommendation: Run Hybrid defense until later so that you can have some chaos res and some buffer supposing you get poisoned/Chaos Damaged On a 4-Link you'll get decently far, but without Ivory Tower and Coruscating Elixir uptime, this build will fall over a lot. You're also missing a lot of scaling without those uniques, so ES rares are the best option. IN PROGRESS ------------------- I'm running Purity of Elements for now to fill the gap, but having a Cyclopean Coil and/or appropriate Pantheons will help you the rest of the way. You can always choose Bring Kink for Freeze Avoid and have the Chill/Movement on your boots if you want. Current issue is not having Brutal Restraint (Balbala) to get Traitor Keystone for Flask Charges GEAR GOALS ------------------ - Spec out of Purity, into Zealotry - Three Rat Talisman - This may take a while, but Crit Multi, Life, ES, All Attributes, Strength are GG Talisman Crafting Method (This might get painful): - Buy Any amulet base with All Attribute Fracture (doesn't have to be max) - Attribute Catalyst (20%) - Spam with Essence of Rage until you get something decent w/ Above - Annoint Utmost Migh - Get Beast Craft (Conversion to Talisman) - Prayge Sygian Vise Crafting Method: NOTE: This base has a VERY high Strength weight, so Essence of Spite is optimal - Buy Styigian (high level) - Attribute Catalyst (20%) - Slam with Hunter Orb (if you want) -- or just buy a Hunter Stygian Ready-Made - Lose all money on Spite Essences - Hope for Strength, Int, and Hunter All Attributes (T1) suffix - Hope for open Prefix (key) - If you somehow landed Hunter T1 life% stop - If not, Craft Suffixes Cannot be Changed, Harvest Craft w/Life. Repeat until you get Influenced Mod MAPPING ----------- - Use Determination, Not Wrath - If you're fine with your ailment avoidance, go out of Purity and turn on Zealotry for more DPS. - The brand mastery for attaching to a new emeny is basically required here -- If not, change to additional brands or attachment range BOSSING ------------ - Run, don't get hit. - Damage is fine in this setup, but not super high. There's better re: Power Charge Stacking Other Options ----------------- - On a Cluster Jewel Setup, you'll have more sockets, so you can go with something like Stormshroud, get a couple of Abyss Jewles with Shock Avoid and GG - Forbidden Flame/Flesh not required, but Regen Lingering gives QoL - On more sockets, you can also go Adorned w/ Magic Jewls if you're feeling rich. Life% & Crit Multi TIMLESS JEWEL --------------------- Get Balbala Good Stats: - Onslaught On Kill - Aura Effect OTHER NOTES/CONFIG ------------------------------- - I didn't touch this section to help keep expectations more grounded, but I did go into the top tier(s) with gear. Expect to get somewhere close, but not perfect. - You can have up to 5 active brands from the tree, but only 1 can be attached to an enemy at a time unless you have runebinder. That would make it 2 and double your damage. For mapping it's not so necessary, but for bossing it's worth it.
