72 Block, Max Spell block, Incinerate Atziri Farmer, 70k DPS.
|
Incinerate + Max block has changed a lot from 1.2 patch to the 1.3 patch. I am updating this guide with current videos as well as a retrospective about playing this character in the first weeks of Bloodlines. I died to what appears to be an invisible storm-call on Atziri. This is still the strongest build I've ever played in terms of what it can accomplish in the game. Some builds have higher DPS, Some have more theoretical defenses, but nothing that I've played puts it all together in such a cheap package.

Max block is absolutely still possible! You will end up with 72% chance to block attacks and 75% chance to block spells, more than adequate to complete any and all content. However, with the tree changes a 6L is far more important that it was in the past, as you no longer have the luxury of many easy to access DPS nodes. Since Invasion when I played Mjolnir + max block and max spell block I've wanted to try Incinerate as a cheap alternative to that build. I played with Nugi in Nemesis when he was first experimenting with Incin and I saw first hand how powerful it can be. End game Build
Spoiler
Some of the fun things like Acro + Ondar's + Block no longer works, so this is a very Vanilla build.

Full clear: http://www.twitch.tv/morsrageng/c/5264828 Why choose this build?
Spoiler
Since I started playing Incinerate (to great success in Beyond) there are a lot of people copying the build and attempting to play it. I purchased 6 cybil's paws for 3c each to corrupt for my build, and they now go for far, far more (up to 1 ex which is ludicrous). To me this highlights the power of the build far more than anything else ever could. To spell it out, that people play it and love it so much driving the demand for even more incinerate builds.
The build is incredibly strong in every single situation that can occur in PoE. Even a fight like Atziri, with massive spike damage which is a direct counter to how this version of incinerate functions, is easily handled by the build. Leveling
Spoiler
Level as fire trap\flameblast to level 31. You need Cybil's Paw to play this build correctly at level 31+.
***ROLL STAUNCHING FLASKS, HAVE AT LEAST 2 FOR PANIC SPAM, CORRUPTED BLOOD*** At 31 get a 4L and run Incinerate, GMP, Added Chaos and Spell echo. My tree at 45 in Act 3 Cruel.

From this point you just want to start filling out the tree on the way to Duelist - > Marauder. You can pick up situational life and DPS nodes as you see fit, and plan on spending 5-15 regrets to ease your leveling Bandits
Spoiler
I did Save Oak, Kill, Kill. As a life based build this is a pretty standard order.
Gear
Spoiler
1.3 Gear
Spoiler
It is very important now to have 4% block amulet, minimum 56% spell block rathpith, gloves with a suffix open to craft 2% block on
1.3 Auras
Spoiler
I ran clarity, Herald of Ice and Thunder and Tempest shield for 4% block.
Main Link
Spoiler
This is what I choose to do with a 6L, faster casting instead of Faster proj is more DPS, but I prefer this as I MELT everything with this setup anyways. For a 5L drop faster proj, and drop fire pen for faster casting if that is your thing. *I still think faster proj is best in a lot of situations, but now that I have 20\20 gems, I've started using faster casting in my 6L in place of faster proj.* Next League
Spoiler
My plans for next league\short term league is to run a high life regen block version of this incinerate build, possibly using Iron Will to scale the DPS.
The potential build: (still a work in process)

While this build modified is still possible, your DPS is not substantial enough to warrant going RF Incinerate over a block build, coupled with the complete lack of defenses. A clip of me playing this build is coming. " The tooltip at 89 is 3942 DPS. I tend to melt everything I face, even 6 player beyond uniques. See the highlights above. My tooltip at 92 was 4817 1.2 patch Witch. It is now 4354 on Witch 1.3 Patch 6L Scion was 2670 with a 5L. 6L was 3597. To be clear, shotgunning with 5 streams (very easy to do with proj speed) = 4354 * 5 * 4 (4 stages on the spell) = 87,000 DPS. " The build still works, it just requires a 6L to achieve the 4k+ tooltip needed for super easy Atziri farming.(still easily doable with a 5L). "When I close my eyes, I see this thing, a sign, I see this name in bright blue neon lights with a purple outline. And this name is so bright and so sharp that the sign - it just blows up because the name is so powerful... It says, "Diamond Supporter."

Hey, thanks for the build; works great on a scion I had a respec for.
Could you check your build link under the 'next league' header? Looks like a wrong URL. Thanks again |
|

Thanks for the build! I'm probably gonna use this to level a scion to 85 for the achievement.

Why did you decide to not take Mind Over Matter?
|
|
" Because he use cloak of defiance? O.o |
|
|
Do you think this build would still be viable using The Anvil as an amulet?
|
|
|
There is no defence except the block, didn't work the block and death, to raise level higher than 90 it is unreal
|
|
" there are also aa and mom. in 1.2 i had a witch with 68 block, 75 spell block, lightning coil and aa. that witch was pretty much immortal, so i think that this build can be even more tabky, cause cod gives reduction from every type of damage, while coil reduce just phys damage |

I have a duelist with the block 78\69, and dps 180k,
I can advise a linking of Reckoning + to Life Leech, is much more effective than the shield Aegis Aurora , but it is necessary to big dps , 70k norm |
|
|
So the budget atziri killer now requires a 6 link CoD, well fuck. I guess that's called balance though.
Any issues with desync with such focus on cast speed? (echo and faster casting). I found incinerate to be one of the most desync troubled skills i've ever used and that was without faster casting. |
