Hey guys! I’ve finally managed to get my pet project this league to a stage where I’m proud of it enough to share it. First time really posting anything, hope you guys find it an interesting take on Doriyani’s Prototype. Any feedback is greatly appreciated! I kinda feel like I’ve taken this as far as it could go.

Before I get into this, can i just preface it with PLEASE GGG, consider adding this build, or a more refined version to the Rogue Exiles rotation, atleast for a little bit, it’ll be HILARIOUS....probably

The moment I saw the Doriyani’s Prototype shown off in the stream before the league, I had been trying to figure out a negative lightning res, end game solo-viable build. BUT, at some point, that goal slightly changed due to my unhealthy obsession with the meme that is lightning warp beginning to resurface. Well, it was between that and charged dash.

I know I know, the build could be so much stronger had I chosen ANY other damage source (and to be honest, I’m still open to suggestions to see how much dmg this build could possibly do with a REAL skill), but I mean.... my Lightning Warp currently does 1.3M shaper/boss/everything DPS cuz monsters lightning resistance doesn’t affect my dmg what so ever. Unless if it’s a totem =.= prototype no affect totems/totem bosses..

The configuration above is set to reflect my actual dps as closely as possible with enemies set at -195% lightning resistance (my lightning resistance in combat when double self cursed). The timeless Jewel on the left is Xibiqua’s and M.O.M. is Divine Flesh. The allocated nodes in its radius have been manually edited onto the timeless jewel.

Build overview: Assassin - Evasion/Dodge based Doriyani’s Prototype with Avian Twins talisman and Divine Flesh with EB 2x Ventor’s Gambles with specific rolls Shackles gloves for self curse Endgame content is all soloable, but build also works amazing in any kind of party play, especially that holding LW when targeting any ally constantly will warp to allies location. Works even better if somebody uses discipline (because LW much mana cost)

Life: 4,007 Mana: 979 (100% reserved HoL + Wrath + Flesh and Stone) ES: 493 (EB, because Divine Flesh Says so, and cuz LW has 107 mana cost) Evasion: 6640 Evade Chance: 66% Block Chance: 18% Attack Dodge Chance: 75% Spell Dodge Chance: 74% Fire/Cold/Lightning/Chaos Res: 75%(110) / 75% (152) / -195% / 86%

Lightning Warp average Damage per Hit: 134,024.1 Cast Speed: 4.46 @2 hits per cast After factoring in over shock of 60%, approx: 1.3M DPS

I currently am also using a 4L (really half assed setup) Ball Lightning for bossing and as something that doesn’t only do meme levels of dps.

Second Wind+Dash because LW hemorrhages Mana and as a dodgy boy, sometimes very often I need to move like over there like 2 seconds ago.

Surprisingly, Lightning degen doesn’t hurt too bad. I can survive walking through the conqueror’s lightning degen AOE. With a panic potion on the other side LOL. Lightning degen still pretty scary.

Kinda stuck in terms of gearing though. More or less, the only flexible pieces are wep/shield, and I know I can get a lot more dmg from a crafted weapon but honestly I have no idea what I should use. And some jewels and other gear pieces all still WIPs. The path of gearing this StupidLightningThing requires walking along very fine line of balance.

LW currently one clicks mob packs in T16 Awakener7, and HONESTLY SURPRISINGLY, feels REALLY GOOD to use on left click. Honestly kinda why i ended up sticking with lightning warp. If there is interest, Id be more than happy to try recording some videos later tonight showcasing how this build works in its current iteration.

So, my fellow exiles, I now ask for your assistance. How can we min-max this even further? Any suggestions on other skills to try? My passive tree and everything is honestly all generic enough that I could easily switch to any other dmg source, whether it be melee or bow with phys to lightning. Could also maybe do some ele-hit shenanigans cuz I’m right next to those nodes on the tree. Honestly, I’d say mines/traps are also considerable options?

I’m sure you guys could take this build and make something that is truly ridiculous in terms of damage. I feel like from a solo perspective, evasion/dodge with “lightning damage from hits/elemental damage taken as _______” is the best way to handle the survivability aspect when approaching Doriyani’s Prototype.

Thank you for reading, and for the assistance!

PS: GGG, once again, please consider some iteration of this as a rogue exile. I’d love to be walking around, then suddenly, a StupidLightningThing lightning warps on top of me and puts me at as little as makes no difference -195% Lightning resistance and instantly killing me. To get “offscreened” by a rogue exile’s lightning warp, would that be a little too mean of a Rogue Exile? Nahhhhh, the build is squishy af, it’s fineeeee. I know you guys wanna see it too ;D maybe just don’t put it into HC’s rogue exiles
