Currently running CoC in Beyond with ST. Be that as it may I tested almost every single spell that is Cold or Lightning Damaged based due to being limited to 2 spells. Cant swap out Life Leech or else I will die.

Do you still think that AB is the best possible skill to run with CoC? From my subjective experience Ice Spear and Pulse out DPS it in terms of AoE, and a 20% Freezing Pulse that is ran with Balistic Mastery (so basically 80% proj speed) can rival it in term terms of single target burst.

Have you experienced something similar over the last weeks or do you still feel like AB is the non plus ultra?

Freezing Pulse is definitely weaker than Ice Spear and AB singletarget. Ice Spear and AB are about the same strength when all 5 projectiles hit the same target, but AB has a splash when hitting enemies while Ice Spear doesn't. Ice Spear on the other hand has pierce up to a certain range. The main selling point of Freezing Pulse is the pierce up to far ranges which in cases of big packs allows the fastest clearing. Now that the Arc chain bug gets fixed tomorrow however I think Arc + AB will be sufficient for very efficient clearing and Freezing Pulse won't give a noticable benefit anymore. Also AB can't pass through fences or above holes or obstacles on the ground while Freezing Pulse and Ice Spear can.

It's my personal choice to use AB since I find that the tradeoffs are the best for myself. I like that it's one of the best shotgunning skills for single-target DPS, I like the splash it has when having projectiles explode, making it faster than Ice Spear for clearing and I like the frozen ground it leaves, slowing all enemies on their way towards me.

Hi I'm using lifeleech instead of arc since there's no acuity on rampage atm. I'd say I'm pretty geared up other than that and my acc. (got 6L shavs / double void / great boots) and I have 5.1k ES / overcapped resists / vaal pact w/ life leech gem (my dmg output might not be so hot)


I'm having trouble w/ the trio part of normal atziri...I can't run righteous fire or else I'll die in like half a second and kiting doesnt rlly work too well also. The best method I see is running up to them and hoping I crit/lifeleech harder more than they hit me and it doesn't rlly work out too well. Everything else is cake but the trio is rlly difficult...any suggestions?

My gear at lvl 89

Oh and I gotta mention I didn't get to make my flasks yet....so that might be one issue....maybe I can run RF if I had a ruby flask...but that also seems kinda gimmicky...but worth a shot on my next run

btw...it's just really the trio that's the hard part....everything else is pretty easy....even atziri herself w/out RF and fireball

I'm running a life version of the build with voll's because it's cheaper while I build up currency to attempt to attempt to get the bigger items.

However I had zero issues killing Atziri or the trio or anything else so far in the game.

I find it a bit strange however that you managed to afford to buy over 100 ex in items and you didn't know that flasks are important (especially ruby during RF??) or can't figure out to level or buy leveled gems so you can just walk up to the mobs and put them in the dumpster.

Can you link your life base with voll's skill tree. Cant afford a acuity so trying life leach w/ vaal pact and finding it hard to survive at lv75. Esp since went from 4.5k ES to 3.7K ES by allocating points to learn Vaal Pact. Using a non spell dmg boost shield and decent crit want until I get assassin to lv6 so I can 3red my other battery.

That is my current setup, but there are lots of ways to do it, and I'm still experimenting with optimization and stuff like that. I have points in mana-regen and stuff, because I'm running triple purities for defense and fast barrage with life-leech actually takes a decent amount of mana.

It's actually less like Shatter chuck, and more like a dagger coc-dagger build from last league. My only really expensive item is 6l Voll's. Everything else is random multi-chaos rares.

It works great on everything up to uber atziri though. Whenever I get mortal pieces together I'll give her a shot.

I'm gonna do some experimenting with a shield and running less life nodes, if I can pick up a few more crit/acc nodes or crit multi nodes my shotgun damage would go up a ton.

One more question: why exactly arent you trying to utilize EE? Youre right next to it, while you skills scramble through resistances pretty frequently. You dont have any elemental damage on you gear and consistently procc +cold from Herald of Ice. Is it one of the reasons? Because you think that it gimps the output of AB too much?

It just surprises me that you dont consider running the keynote because the potential seems to be almost limitless, especially in a tri elemental build.


/e: I mean, I can see that due to using AB and Barrage you would end up losing dps on the mobs that are in the back of the pack because the only spell that would hit them being Arc. But is there another notable reason?

We're shotgunning enemies with 5 projectiles GMP. The first projectile might get a benefit from EE, but the other 4 will be at a disadvantage, always. EE would be horrible for this setup.

Hi, which curse would be better for this build against Bosses

Assassin's Mark or Ele Weakness.

Hello, first of all srry my bad english..
I've started ur build with a 5-L Shav and i can affort to buy a single VB, but i want to know if worth run with a single VB and shield, or if its better keep a 10,5% base crit wand with around 50% total spell demage.

I thank u for the build and gg

If your wand has a decent attack speed then keep it. Void batteries only become really really good for this build when dual wielding.

It would be perfect if you could make it a 4L: Ele Weakness + Blood Rage + Empower + Enhance but the problem is...you simply does not have enough spare sockets to do so.

Depends. When you're playing with a rare wand + shield combo, then you can replace the Power Charge on Crit support gem with Assassin's Mark, giving you power charges when killing things while additionally cursing enemies with 39% more critical damage taken. In many cases not as strong as elemental weakness, but it's basically free in that case.

Only works well when clearing packs in maps - not against bosses, since you need to kill stuff for charges. Also doesn't work with void batteries, since you don't do much damage without charges and thus can't get the initial kills required.
