Tripolar Bear's Notes

HEY IF YOU'RE HAVING TROUBLES YOU SHOULD 100% JUST COME TO ----> -----> twitch.tv/tripolarbare <------ <------ otherwise watching my build video -------------->https://tinyurl.com/PoisonBV While leveling this build and any spellcaster build, you need to take advantage of one extremely important vendor recipe. >> You need to vendor 1x magic Sceptre, Wand, or Rune Dagger, with a magic Ruby, Topaz, or Sapphire Ring, and 1x Orb of Alteration. >>At level 20 you can do the same recipe, but with a rare ring (using essences is a very easy way to get a rare ring). >>You can easily obtain a Sapphire or other ring by vendoring and Iron ring with a blue gem for sapphire, green gem for Topaz, and red gem for Ruby. SAVE ALIRA - WE'RE A CRIT BUILD AND THE RES IS NICE TOO EVEN WITH GOLDEN RULE YOU NEED CHAOS RESISTANCE ON YOUR GEAR STILL PLAGUE BEARER IS FUCKING AWESOME = USE IT <-------<--------<-------- PROBLEMS YOU MIGHT HAVE -I keep going into a map and then dieing right away when I try to BV somthing If you have "The golden rule" without a watcher's eye "Unaffected by poison while affected my malevolence" OR "The maw of conquest" "Unaffected by poison". Then you're just poisoning yourself. You need the watcher's eye, or the maw of conquest. -I don't have enough mana reservation DO NOT GET SUPREME EGO UNTIL YOU HAVE A GLORIOUS VANITY (Xibaqua) TO CHANGE THAT NOTABLE INTO "Divine Flesh" JUST IGNORE UNTIL YOU GET THE JEWEL YOU ALSO NEED TO HAVE DEVOURING DIADEM TO RUN MALEVOLENCE + HERALD OF AGONY + SKITTERBOT/ASPECT OF SPIDER. Just drop skitter and run flesh and stone with an enlighten if you want. ============================= AFTER PATCH NOTES THOUGHTS ======================== The only thing that should be changed for us with the patch notes is how busted Vulnerability is for us. "ailments inflicted on cursed enemies to deal damage 20% faster" is crazy good for us because poison is an ailment. WE DOUBLE CURSE NOW SINCE WHISPERS OF DOOM IS SO EASY TO ANOINT.
