[1.2.4] Crit Lightning Tendrils Build
|
Hi. This is my first build i decided to share with you.
It's lightning tendrils witch. It's cheap (about 5 ex) and it's better than incinerate build i've tried. Pros:
Spoiler
- Great dps
- Can generate power charges without voll's and pcoc - Almost allways has max power charges Cons:
Spoiler
- Low survivability
- High mana cost of skill Here is the tree:

Spoiler
Q. Do you think this build can handle atziri?
A. Yes. If u have no lags like i am. Q. Is it even possible to use a lvl 20 arctic armor with this build? A. No you cannot. Lightning Tendrils cost a huge amount of mana. You can try use CoD, but u will lose a lot of dps and area of skill. Q. How u handle with reflect? A. I'm using now vaal pact tree with cwdt warlord's mark and Atziri Promise flask for double reflect and I use life leech gem for reflect maps. It is safe with reflect. Q. What is your experience with desync? A. I have no desync problems with Lightning Tendrils, but my provider is shit. Thank you all for reading the guide. Sorry for mistakes (i'm russian). Fell free to criticize. Last edited by paranozek#2700 on Nov 1, 2014, 7:54:05 PM

upd:
- added gear - added tooltip dps |
|

Spell echo and tendrils with crit is pretty bad in my opinion.
You either crit 8 times in row (bad for reflect) or don't crit 8 times in row (low dps when it happens). The tooltip dps is great but because of the mechanic mentioned above unless you are packing massive crit chance it's gonna be random. Also not sure how you survive reflect when you crit 8 times in row on a pack? And id consider running a lightning penetration somewhere there.

DPS and life format of number depends on your locale settings.
Different countries = different format. For example my dps shows as: XXX,XX.XX [2.2] The Vampire - Tanky 2H Axe Slayer Duelist - /view-thread/1611662 Last edited by Mannoth#4185 on Oct 24, 2014, 1:56:08 PM

upd:
- updated tooltip dps - updated gear - updated passive tree (special thanks to squiddy286) @mokaiba, i'm from Russia. I have standart windows english interface, but in Russia we do not use dot for dividing digits. I think that's why my dps is shown different. Last edited by paranozek#2700 on Oct 24, 2014, 2:39:56 PM

Sorry if this is a dumb question, but why use purity of lightning?
