Frost wall for shotgun still work ?

Hey Oos! Thanks for the build I'm loving it so far the only thing that makes me very uneasy is my fragility when it comes to phys damage. I find myself skipping a lot of phys bosses, kiting them off screen or just taking huge hits. Is this the bane of every evasion build ?
I'm trying to go for lots of HP to have some safety but I'm just wondering how you deal with meele physical mobs that leap for example. Do you facetankit, frost wall, kite, use a totem or how do you go about it? Thanks! |

Thank you for the reply, i was just curious about it because on my tree version i already picked 3 sockets and i'm going for the 4th. :)
I would like to ask you if Vaal Pact is worth it or it doesn't make such a noticeable difference especially agaist reflect mobs. | |
" Yes, the on-hit explosion still shotguns. " Yeah phys sucks. Get high movement speed and use good mobility, this can be quite a high skill build at times. Other than that, get CWDT+Immortal Call and spam self cast Enduring Cry. It used to be stronger pre-2.0 but it's still viable. " Personally, I wouldn't get it. But it's a good option for you, if you feel like you need it then go ahead. I tried attacking in to Thornflesh and it wasn't that bad, they toned it down a lot from beta. You should still be careful of it, and Vaal Pact may help. It's really up to you, at least get it and test it out. IGN: @Oos

Regarding Blood Magic; I just tried it out. I can say that it probably does come down to preference (as Oos mentioned) but there's one other BIG negative side effect which some people seem to forget: you have 0 mana (unless you take reduced mana nodes)
This means you CANNOT cast Blood Rage (if you use it) you CANNOT cast ice Golem you CANNOT cast anything else on top of that, the rate you gain power charges is abominal and extremely RNG based, and it makes PCOC a much better alternative. Add on top of this that HoT doesnt even give that much added damage (compared to HoI / Hatred) it's almost not worth it Last edited by Anvesi on Jul 17, 2015, 2:29:34 PM

" Thanks for the write up and testing. It's personal preference but considering this build is already tight on gem sockets, adding a BM gem to everything you want to use doesn't seem like a good idea. Leech is a big advantage to physical builds so may as well make use of it. BM gem is better in pure elemental wanders. BM gem could actually be good while leveling and up to 70ish before you have good phys damage/leech. IGN: @Oos

yesterday I've tested EB+GR and also took Hematophagy and Vitality void clusters. Seems as with decent phys wand and one piece of es gear with ~150-200 es, you can easily sustain mana while spamming KB on 6L. Right now I am using double twyzels and i noticed that i can almost sustain spamming KB with BR on. I guess with phys wand of ~200+ pdps, i would be able to drop vitality void cluster maybe add a piece or two with some life leech.
haven't tested VP yet, i might test it when i get few more levels. I am using slightly different build than shown here but same main routes. IGN: DirtyWorX

Why HoIce over HoAsh?

How strong is the single target on this? Can this build easily kill say Dominus on palace map and all the new bosses? Uber Atziri viable?

When would you skill up all the acrobatics passives? just right away or wait until your gear has decent evasion gear?
