Elemental Crit Spectral Throw [2.0 Updated]

2.0 BUILD PLEASE
please, att for atc 4 new!
Hi, i was using your build in the previous patch. Are you planning on updating this build so it can be used again in the current patch?

I would love to continue using this build but i'm not really good at making builds myself
I'm running ele crit spectral throw on warbands so I was lurking the forums to see if I could get some insight to improve my build. A couple threads later I found this one.

I see people asking for 2.0 update and I'm guessing the build is not up-to-date; I'll share the build I'm currently using to give ideas to people thinking of running ele crit st.

I'll share my tree & gear for those asking for a 2.0 update.

Gear I'm using on Warbands and it's approximate cost:

Gear

Gear Cost

Dagger: master craft + 3 chaos
Chest: Self-found, master craft + ~240 jews/not much fuses to get 6L, got lucky there :) I was actually trying to get 5L as I was bored with tabula, but tabula works just as great.
Helm: I'm guessing 3-5 ex at start of the league but perf crits were worth 8ex at the time
Boots: Mediocre life + 16 dodges were 12-15c when I bought it, probably way cheaper now.
Glove: master craft + .. 1 chaos.
Shield: 3 chaos? lol
Amulet: master craft + scroll of wisdom + aug + regal as I recall
Rings: Diamond one is self-found other is ~3 chaos
Belt: master craft + 5c

I'm guessing you can get similiar stats with 5-6 ex worth of gear. Hell, you can drop rat's nest for a starkonja and build it with 2 ex worth of gear tops including jewels.



Capped resists, 4k life, 50% evade without grace bla bla bla

Level 89

Passive Tree

Not really optimized but just to give you an idea. You might want to drop a frenzy charge and complete Phase Acrobatics or take more life/life regen etc. Up to you. I think shadow has a better
start but I didn't really plan out to play spectral throw at the start of the league :)

I survive on my flasks but you might want to get Vaal Pact and replace Faster Attacks/Hypothermia with Life Leech. I wouldn't replace Added Cold Damage as it gives us a lot of damage(and survivability). Or if you don't want to go Vaal Pact I believe a 20/20 Life Leech gem with some Vorici items is good enough. I tested around with a level 20 LL gem without any other leech rate items/nodes and it felt great, less flasking and less fluctuations on my hp pool and I can leech back to full hp in a matter of seconds so all good.

Do not use Dyadian Dawn belt with superior gear, the damage loss is not worth the 0.6 leech against chilled enemies. The damage from a 30% WED from belt > situational +0.6% leech amount.


I used to run on ES/Mana with Eldritch Battery and 6 +3 ES gain on hit jewels. But thought I could replace those jewels with something better and replace a gem with Blood Magic. It worked out pretty good. So if you take that route, respec to Blood Magic :D Or share your results if they are any better with similiar gear.

Here's my gem setup:

Gem Setup

6L: Spectral Throw + Faster Attacks + Lesser Multiple Projectiles + Added Cold Damage + Weapon Elemental Damage + Blood Magic

Replace Faster Attacks with Hypothermia for group play and higher maps. You can replace the LMP with FA on bosses if you want but it's not necessary. I usually go Hypthermia + GMP for party play as I freeze everything.

4L(2L-2L): Wrath + Grace - Blood Magic + Rallying Cry/Flicker Strike

4L: HoI + Hot + CoH + Assassin's Mark

4L: Whirling Blades + Faster Attacks + Fortify + Blood Magic

3L: Inc Dur + Vaal Haste + Vaal Grace

3L: Ice Golem + Blood Rage + Blood Magic


I don't run a CWDT setup, you shouldn't get hit in the first place imo :)
But if you really want to run it get 3R1B or 3R1G on one of your 4L's and run CWDT+Inc.Dur+Immortal Call put either Grace/Wrath on the last socket.
I don't like colouring much and switching between wrath/grace is easier on me with my colours and I like the Rallying Cry's dmg boost.


I currently have 50k lmp dps with charges/blood rage/flasks up. And my gems are not leveled yet. (And Hypothermia's dps does not show on tooltip.)

You need to use your resist flasks / Atziri's Promise to deal with reflect.

I have transitioned from coc build so I have Power Charges from Bandits. It might be a better idea to get a Frenzy charge.

Bandits: Oak, Kill all, Kraityn

Sloppy Update from 2.0:

Just switched a few things around and will post some data how it looks and will propably do a real update when i get to it in the next few weeks:

- 48k LMP dps with 6 Power and 3 Frenzy Charges(no Flasks/Vaal Haste/leg Mali#s. I think it goes up to like 70 with everything active)
- 5.2k Life and 3 possible Jewel Sockets
- Changed the Alpha's to Anger-Wrath and Empower-Enlighten

Maybe some people are still interested in this build so I hope I can get some time to update the build.

The thought of playing ST again makes me absolutely giddy. Updates would be great.

Looked at your "WONDERBUZZSAW" character. Any reason you're not using Vaal Pact? I don't see any life regen from the tree.
Updated the guide to 2.0

Would like to ask your opinion on Vaal Pact and Acro+Phase Acro ? Also , Can we try Atziri with this build and eventually Uber !?

I don't think Vaal Pact is necessary with only Single Target Reflect atm, so you can just pop your flasks and leech it out.
About Acro and Phase Acro: It's too far away in this build but I would recommend it for every Evasion Build in general.
