Prandom_returns's Notes

EDIT2: I just now realised that I didn't have the Harbinger summoned in the video. So... this, but faster.

Hello all,

It appears this league will never end. I've made a few builds this league using some of the stronger templates (Transcendence, 100% taken as fire, etc.), but I felt they weren't original enough to be shared here.

I will preface by listing all the things annoy people, to get my ass covered:

  • Expensive meme build.
  • Squire, Ashes, Progenesis
  • Awakened Spell Cascade
  • Not as tanky as Transcendence/Dmg Taken As, etc.
  • Clear not that good
  • Single target not that good
  • This build is shit compared to the top builds, or what you could do with the same amount of currency.

I just remembered the times we VD/DD with Poet's Pen, and decided to update that build for the modern game.

It sports:

  • Full ailment immunity
  • 99% (lol) Spell Suppression
  • Curse immunity
  • 45% phys taken as
  • 4K life with 1K ES / Ghost shrouds / 20K evasion
  • Some amount of damage that's difficult to calculate
  • One button pew pew playstyle
  • 161% MS
  • 1.2K Life Regen
  • Not negative chaos resistance

I don't know why, but the DD explosions really gets me going. I've done Uber Eats with this build, and I'm sure a more skillful player could do all content on it. I've only gotten it online this morning, so I'm still leveling some gems, as you can see in the video.

Minotaur map + Boss + Poop boss in the video. (Grabbed the Shrine by accident, had to portal out-and-in)

I'd love to fit Herald of Ash into the build, because HoA pops are super satisfying, as we're overkilling trash mobs by quite a lot. It's also ~10% more damage for this build.

Hopefully I will not drop this one, and give it a bit of min-maxing until the league ends.

Enjoy, I suppose? Any questions - feel free to ask!

EDIT: HoA fits! Put both spell-slinged spells in the chest, and add another Enlighten 3.
