SST Raider Showcase

Hey everyone,

Just wanted to show what until I get my dream Crucible Shield is the final iteration of my SST Raider.

-Key Points of Build:

• Ailment Immune
• 100% Spell Suppression
• Bleed Immune
• Capped Res + Chaos Res
• 57k Armor - 65k at 50 Stacks
• 8 Frenzy Charges / 3 Power Charges / 2 Endurance Charges
• 2x Shield Throw Mod from Helmet and Shield
• 80 Cold Penetration
• Hatred Abuse at its finest.
• 162% MS

Here is a run of Uber Sirius + Uber Maven plus all of the Maven invitations. As you can see most of my time is spent waiting for dialogue and spawning.

SST Raider Gauntlet

This was my league starter and it has gone through a lot of different setups. I started as a high armor cold convert before moving to crit, before finally chancing my shield and getting my helm where I then became the typical spark setup of 2x COTB and Hatred.

I crafted the actual gear + rare clusters (even self corrupting my own Corrupted Blood Immune). I gambled my Apothecary's from 1-5 in about 2k Juice and Corrupted the COTB's, I also in my only Voidborn Reliquary drop got the Ashes (28/20 when it dropped I spent 10 divines to get it to 30/20) . I've now chanced 3 Emperor's Vigilances.

I'm not sure why Raider and not Champion or Trickster. Raider is just one of my favorite classes. I could squeeze more DPS out of the Feast/Flesh combo by switching to Focal Point but I prefer the QOL and speed of Tailwind.

The only change I can see is maybe potentially finishing my sword with a suffix (T1 Accuracy or Frenzy on Block 5% Accuracy per Frenzy are the more attractive options), and getting an Emperor's Vigilance with +1 Max Frenzy and somehow getting Frenzy Gloves. I'd then drop the Grand Spectrums for different jewels to accommodate that setup. SST has been a blast to play since the first day of the league. I did not enjoy the amount of imprints I needed for some trees but so far I haven't gotten bored enough to re-roll into something else.

• Setup as 10% Shock and 30% Chill which I do manage to achieve, I looked at Heatshiver as an option but I wasn't reliably freezing Uber Bosses and figured it would be fake DPS. I don't think I ever actually manage to get to 35 Rage but it does happen in some content like Sims and Maps.

• Character feels smooth and amazing to play.

• And no matter how much ISI tells me to, I won't go Champion.

If you have any questions or comments I'm happy to discuss crafting strategies and build ideas.
