Hello, i feel like it isn't really being mentioned anywhere, but in ruthless, since you most likely won't have a 6 link, or good ways of scaling damage, the easiest way to scale damage is to just use many different skills. The premise here is that on non bosses you just fire trap and maybe curse a rare here or there, and on bosses where you struggle, you are unloading your whole kit. Here is the POB: Lvl 98 with 2-3 mod gear, no 5 link, the mods affixes and bases are not tier 1, usually tier 2-4 (except the weapon). Should be overcapped for curses, 600k boss

TLDR: Frozen Legion possibly (i.e. not confirmed or hinted at by anyone at GGG AFAIK) scales similarly to Shockwave, gaining CDR and EAD please please please remember to cross-check when gem information is dropped and do not take this as gospel - it is hypothetical although at least an educated guess It's a decent 6th link for average attack speed builds It might be mainable if your weapon is exceptionally slow, but Heatshiver is likely the most straightforward way to scale it for now. 4 sample builds to get your own theorycrafting started, although those

So, i managed to get my hands on Hateforge and thought id try to get it going like back in Ultimatum. PoB: Very unoptimized and still low level, not meant to be more than a proof of concept for now. The main idea is to use flask effect, reduced duration and dual wield the ultimatum weapon to get 100% uptime on VLS. Because the Sceptre has very low attack damage, im using covenant for big base damage. Its definitly way weaker than before but with how crazy attack speed will scale this, it might be possible to make it good again. Edit: Got a couple PMs tellin

Stun mechanics This build culumates a total o 308% reduced enemy stun threshold, which is applied (due to its formula when over 75%) as about 97.5% Sirus has 70mil HP or so, we hit him, on avarage, for over 1 mil damage, which amounts to an 77% stun chance which i'm sure can be feasebly pushed to 100% by actually taking the build seriously and increasing its damage. Consider that hits have great variance in damage due to double damage chance and ryslatha's coil This, thanks to ruthless, leads to an over 3 seconds long stun duration, which is enough for the next ruthless blow to land Shou

Act 1 Gems: Damage Skills: Holy Flame Totem (Lvl 4) - Added Fire Damage - Ruthless (Lvl 2) Ancestral Protector - Added Fire Damage - Ruthless Auras and Utility Steelskin, Precision, Vitality, Leap Slam (Dash Prior) Act 2 Gems: Supports to grab: Faster Attacks Support, Culling Strike Support, Elemental Damage with Attacks, Melee Physical Damage Auras: Herald of Ash, Herald of Purity (probably better) Act 3 Gems: THE BIG BOI, ANCESTRAL WARCHI

Have been getting a few whispers about this so sharing my current attempt to push PotCG BS as far as it can go. Currently at lvl 95 with 9+k life, 1.6+k str, and around 7-9M conservative dps. The clear is great and I've been doing some Tropical Island Zana Delirium farming quite smoothly with it. Bossing is mediocre as it's still a melee strike skill but at least the tankiness allows for some mistakes if you are a bad mechanic player like me. Boneshatter really needs some investment in stun duration to feel good so fra

STEP BY STEP LEVELLING: Act 1: Buy Frost Blades from Nessa after you kill Hillock. We're going to use Frost Blades for clear and Double Strike for single targets. Buy a Paua Amulet for mana regeneration(we will need this until we get Life and Mana Leech on passive tree) and also craft movement speed boots as soon as you can. Pick up 3-colored items and sell them for chromatic orbs for first 2-3 acts. We will need them since we change skills through levelling. Keep on upgrading mana flasks especially until Act 6, we will be using them frequently. Also Magic weapon with added Physical Damage

Hello everyone This is a follow up post with my discoveries with boneshatter and battlemage's cry working together. Numbers are better than predicted! I'll probably play the hybrid version and ditch skill effect duration nodes. Calculations are from old numbers and should be higher now. about stun duration - it seems its the default quality for boneshatter. I'm trying to stack this now, so it was great timing! Since the AoE caps out at 400% and it gives it in chunks of 15, it was (400 / 15) = 26.67 0.1s = 2.7s stun duration for max AoE. about self damage - even on the skill effect d
