[1.3] Scold's Self-Ignite - Over 200k dps on a 4L | All Map Mods + Atziri | Survivable and Cheap

RIP Scolds Builds
Unless interaction with vaal molten shell gets nerfed, this build only got a little bit better this patch since I would occasionally get stunned out of Vaal Molten Shell (about 1% of the time) if I didn't have immortal call up. So the ship's still floating!
This build is fine after the bugfix. Also, Mokou's Embrace alt art ring is the first race reward coming up, only 10 pts!
Yeah I am looking forward to the custom art mokou's
Ok this build is not RIP happy days but i think it maybe next patch so have fun Now all reading though the comments im torn on flame blast or incinerate i have no idea how the mechanics work but just from self testing i feel incinerate procs alot more hence giving more dps out put if anyone can explain in English i would be very happy
Plus how do I become ignighted to get the added speed the ring give me ?
This gear has kinda just been thorwn together as im so low on currency

Read the guide maybe? They aren't going to break this build - this exact mechanic was featured in build of the week.

Basically for the build I felt that vaal molten shell was best for killing single-targets while flameblast proliferation was best for killing large packs which will get me souls much faster. Using incinerate and vaal molten shell together means that you will get more procs and better single-target due to the shotgun, but with a lot of playtime I realized that this is pretty much wasted damage since the real bottleneck to clearspeed with this build is killing packs rather than single targets.

So in general, flameblast is much better for general mapping because everything will die a few procs of vaal molten shell, you don't need to proc it more. Incinerate is much better for single target and adds 1.5 more procs to the build, but the damage is overkill for anything other than atziri. For atziri I've taken to swapping the set-up in my 5L flameblast to Incinerate - Curseonhit - Warlord's mark and swapping out flameblast-eleprolif-fire pen which gives me the proc rate and curse very easily during the atziri fight. I recommend that path since, you can clear atziri even faster than in my first video and still have great map clearing with flameblast.
