3.27 Bleed Slams Slayer Ground Slam of Earthshaking, Sunder, and Earthquake Video Guide: https://youtu.be/FE5EXr4Fx0I Written Guide: Coming Soon twitch.tv/PhazePlays youtube.com/@PhazePlays_ The PoB and notes will be updated, be sure to grab newer versions before league start Will have a mapping lootfilter available before launch == Grafts == Will update Grafts after the patch-day datamine ================================== ********************* SLAMS ******************** ================================== These Slams all have different mechanics and damage patterns Bleed damage should be very similar for all of them All of these are viable! == Ground Slam of Earthshaking == Transfigured Slam with a wide frontal cone slam with huge AoE and a higher chance to stun The bread and butter for mapping! Vaal Ground Slam Huge Omni-directional AoE slam that's near-spammable. This skill feels great 4 charges, 15 souls per use, 1 second soul gain prevention Cannot be empowered by Fist of War or Rallying Cry It CAN be exerted unlike every other Vaal Slam For mapping, it's best to alternate between these skills between packs Getting Vaal Ground Slam of Earthshaking on leaguestart may be rough, staying Sunder for awhile may be a good route == Sunder == Slam with a long narrow cone Most enemies hit by Sunder send out shockwaves when they get hit, so this skill destroys tightly clumped groups of enemies Sunder shockwaves can aggravate bleeds, and trigger the 20% Cull from Slayer Only one Sunder can be activate at a time (though all Sunders get at least 2 waves) Great option if you're regularly running narrow maps, or need some extra range for a particular boss == Earthquake == Slam with two parts: a smaller initial AoE, and a big Aftershock afterwards that does much more damage Earthquake cannot be "spammed" as a crack must erupt before another one can be crated Always link Earthquake with Less Duration A downside of Earthquake is fewer life leech instances which hurts Slayer Don't take the "Ailment Duration & Skill Effect Duration" mastery if you use Earthquake Great option if you prefer an omnidirectional ability ================================== ********************** MISC ********************* ================================== == Uniques == Ryslatha's Coil - this is huge damage, and is the only unique that's required later on The most important roll is a high "more Maximum Attack Damage" Quality it with Abrasive Catalysts (Attack) Writhing Jar - alternative to a life flask, maintains your leech damage reduction and fortify when there's nothing around you to hit Also recovers mana which is really nice with tincture Haemophilia - optional for giga clear pops Explosions can trigger Slayer's 20% cull Expensive Option: Vulnerability on hit corruption Light of Meaning - Physical - Maurauder jewel socket - huge damage jewel Redblade Banner - Offhand this eventually - Enduring Cry either in your links, or an offhand socket Lethal Pride - an option at the outside Marauder or Slayer jewel socket. Slayer socket locks out running Iron Reflex, however Foulborn The Red Dream New item this league, gives an absurd amount of Life Put it in the outside Marauder jewel socket surrounded by fire resistance tattoos (Tattoo of the Ngamahu Firewalker) instead of Light of Meaning Decent chance it's absurdly expensive, may not be accessible for most people
