BalorMage's Notes

Build Focus: Good single target with high tank and insane recovery due to LGOH working for the melee and each ball (something like 45 balls per second single target, triple that when clearing). B tier clear but super satisfying as you whirling blades into each pack with reckless abandon. Whirling blades everywhere, which is why no quicksilver. Not great at legion or blights due to relatively short range of dmg. Really good for essence/ritual/ultimatum style fighting. ~50k EHP before molten shell. Footage with mid gear and wrong boots entirely, meaning I wasn't ailment immune. Oops. DPS on char shown is about 6mil. https://youtu.be/rirOOblEi8I Total DPS? Hard to say for sure, there is some RNG to balls. Melee + 5xBall dmg + 30% of 1x Ball dmg (return) x APS = Should be in the ballpark of 10-12mil depending on claw Map Mods to avoid: Hard to know before seeing T17, but avoid ele reflect until you get woke ele dmg with attacks to 5 Whats with the Corrupting fever links? It's an on demand adrenaline trigger for a whole lot of extra damage. Between the 25% life recovered and the LGOH you will be back to full nearly instantly. Inspiration is linked to be as close to 50% life cost as possible ( no sense in going overboard). Adjust as required if your life goes too high (inc duration ->swift affliction) Bandit: Kill all Pantheon: Upgraded Brine King if not ailment immune. Arakali if you are.. Shakari for minor I guess. Dealers choice Timeless jewel, lots of good nodes, but you want strength most of all. Build is very strength starved. Can prob make the attribute jewel work too but watch out for accuracy issues. Sniper's Mark does not cause MS projectiles to split. We're using it for the dmg taken component only. Once you go crit, use Assassins Mark (with quality so you generate charges). Whats with the regen node? Just for those times when youre running across degens with nothing to hit to recover and want to save flask charges. Optional Levelling stuff Molten strike feels pretty bad early due to the attack not going off until the end of the animation. You should be able to switch to it around the same time you get multistrike in act 4 or earlier if you get a fast enough weapon Until then, level with LMP spectral throw with dual 1H or a projectile attack skill of your choice. Frost blades, Splitting steel etc. Nimis? YEP. Drop returning projectiles obviously, prob for crit multi support. Crafting: You're going to need a lot of loathing essences, fortunately this build can farm essences no worries Shield can be done with metallic fossils or reforge lightning/fire/cold til something lands. ilvl 73 to stop stuff rolling we dont want. Triple ele claws are the go to here. Crit Multi and Attack speed both very important and are good fractures to aim for. Craft with essences til you hit triple ele. Minmax: Ancestral Vision is a good way to free up some ailment avoid crafts. Cluster jewel that adds an extra projectile can be worth, but is left to the player to decide on the best way forward there. this build: https://pobb.in/pvdEoHW91mO_ Guide by Shads and Yoinked by Balor ;)
