Hello, So I really wanted to build around Champion, NB and Perseverance. I thought ele would be too meta and thought that impale with call of steel would feel smooth enough, tried leveling with SH a few leagues ago and it was awful. Though perma Onslaught, Adrenaline and tailwind/new implicit might make it smoother. I've crafted a bunch of gear and made a pob (first time building one from scratch) but have no idea what is good for SH - aps, avg hit and what not. Obviously I went overboard with the spell suppression in the defau

Hey all, wanted to share one of the nice mapping builds I played this league built around the new uber unique, Sublime Vision, specifically the purity of fire version. Got a bit bored of meta builds so I wanted to play something more unique just for the sake of it. The build has 100% of cold/lightning taken as fire so you don't need any of those res on your gear. We achieve this through Sublime Vision PoF (30%), max rolled Dawnbreaker (20%), and Tempered by War(50%). We have about 58% phys taken as fire from gear and watcher's eye

This is my DO build this league: Estimated budget: 10 ex (probably less now) Damage : 500k aura farming DPS (a fairly conservative estimate) and there is also level 26 Vaal Blight (20 from gem, +5 from level 3 empower and +1 from level 2 awakened void manipulation) for more damage. Bossing beyond regular red map bosses is still uncomfortable , but those it handles quite well. Defenses : the build runs 5 defensive auras (including 2 curses) and 3-slot Molten Shell. \~27k armor without flask, 38k armor with flask (7.2 se

10 Days ago or so I posted my White Wind Deadeye Starter, now I thought it would be nice to give an Endgame update and some thoughts. Levelling: Had a late start (sunday morning), bought some leveling weapons for the random currency I dropped, helped me clear campaign in 4:30, nothing special but Helix is top tier for going fast. Mapping: White Wind+5L, Capped Res, Capped Suppression and basic Defiance Banner+grace+determination setup was enough to clear exarch and eater questline, swapped to 6l and better jewelry once progression started to slow down in high red maps.

DISCLAIMER: I have not actually played this build in any way yet and 3.18 is when I'll possibly try it, so it could have periods of build progress where its shit before it becomes good, or just be shit forever. DISCLAIMER 2: This is NOT intended to be a day 1 all uber bosses killed build with all magic gear like DD, but one that can function early without needing gear in SSF but will also feel rewarding to build it up as you play throughout the league. Build Features Ethics Not DD, Seismic, EA +++ Hit based attack build +++ Does not use omniscience +++ Does not use Ashes of Stars ++ Does not

I was hoping to hit 100 for the first time on my EA Ele, and while it's a relatively safe mapper, it really excelled about bossing. Still, dying to the occasional one-shot has made pushing past 96 frustrating. I decided to make my own build, which I like to do at least once a league, and I usually play RF once per league cuz I love the skill, so I spent the 40ex or so I had saved up on transitioning her to an Explodey RF Autbomber. The goal was just to map and make money to save up for a real end-game character after I hit 36/38 challenges. So far, the clear is amazing and the visuals are to

After the introduction of the new shield DawnBreaker and Forbidden Jewels, you could feasibly create a character with 100% physical damage taken as elemental without sacrificing almost all your gear slots. We get 17% from the delve helm and eldritch implicit, 23% from the Watchers Eye, 26% from the corrupted shield, 15% from Taste of Hate and 20% from Tasalio from Chieftain, using the Forbidden Flame and Forbidden Flesh Jewels, enabling us to go Berserker. With all Physical damage taken from hits going towards elemental, armour is a redundant stat, incentivising us to go Transcendence for as

DISCLAIMER: This isn't meant to be a guide but a proof of concept. While I did play this character straight from day 1 of the league, I don't really recommend it early because it's a bit clunky before Divergent Berserk and Lethal Pride appeared on trade which was around day 3, and also the playstyle is really active. Thought I'd share the idea behind the build I used to get 38 Challenges this league. Buffs to self-cast this league made me once again reconsider the viability of Fanaticism, a buff intended to be used for self-casters provided by Instruments of Zeal from the Inquisitor ascendan
