g4mbzor's Notes

Hey Guys, So I've been running this build for some time and wanted to share it with you.

But before important note.

Presented gear in the video is HEAVLY invested.

Wanted to say that at the beginning before ppl start screaming mirrors in comments.

Build is not tanky but I wouldn't say it is full glass cannon.

The fact is that we still do have 100% suppress and able to have 90% phys red with granite flask.

Moreover totems either freeze everything or just kill it off-screen.

I've switched to Siege ballista at the end of week 1 and to be honest that was great decision.

Having to face all that busted Archnemesis/essences with ballistas felt so easy.

I started from 20div investment and just kept investing because it felt so comfortable.

Yes I'm aware there is probably few other builds that would do the same or way better with the same investment.

There is also Inquisitor version for Siege Ballista with even better dps, however I personally prefer Hiero for mapping+bossing.

Perhaps if I would be going from mid to high end game version and just for bossing I would go for Inq.

Pobs:

Gear used in video (probably around 2mirr) - https://pastebin.com/aLbj9rW2

Gear that I was using 2nd week of the league (30div+-) - https://pastebin.com/CfSHZnVL

Pros:

- Comfy playstyle

- Nice for mapping

- Very good for bossing

- When you interact with league you don't need to worry that something will kill you, just put 2 ballistach and anything that will try to get close will be shot down

- It's great for content like blight/legion/expedition/harvest

Cons:

- Sometimes you get 1 shoted

- Can be expensive

- On heavy invitations it might be hard to recover because of time needed to place all totems

- Running 250+ quant invitations even with mirror tier gier can be risky due to recover described before

- If you are not playing on solid machine (I mean like GeForce series 3 etc) and you put sniper mark on uber boss your fps will drop significantly. Like in my video
