I confirmed the golems do not proc EE so fire golem is still an option, though with EO and ice golem it could lessen the amount of accuracy on gear and tree investment.

I think a good dps check would be Wasteland Voll if that is possible. Thank you for the reply.

Bugger, It looks like i'll be sticking with Champion. Thanks for the testing though.

I'm curious what your talent tree looks like.

Regarding all those passive tree's, I'll be posting tree's tomorrow or on thursday bcause i got my hands full currently :-(

I believe the tree will be the same. Nothing has really changed in the area. Scion wheel is the same just a rectangle now to make a open area for Mara Ascendancy tree.

You sure have alot of life. I would take off some life and atleast get the Jewel node at Scion start. Can also go for Explosive Impact for damage.

What I would do if I go Champion. Debating on this and Scion.

Berserker for Lifeleech? To free up a slot in the 6 link. Put in less duration would be my idea...

For Ascendancy and Hardcore players, wouldn't the best bet by far be to go Duelist/Champion? You get a free Fortify. I know you can get life leech for free as Scion, but, isn't it smarter in the long run to go for fire damage leech corruption on quiver?

I'm also worried about reflect. How big an issue is it? Do you need vaal pact to survice in a HC environment? Or is fire damage leeched as life on a quiver enough to not die, even in high level maps / with really good gear, and without vaal pact?

Vaal pact just seems to meh. Out of the way, and life regen seems so strong on EA, and a shame to remove.

Leech corruption on the quiver adds very little when only on the quiver. Yes duelist is good for hardcore as discussed in the previous 2 pages. Reflect isnt an issue once u get a high life pool. This build can do no leech t15 maps, so u can do it with the quiver leech only too.

I'll try to do a video later if i get my hands on a wasteland. Pretty funny curve tho from "wonder if i do enough single target in partys" to "kill the highest hp boss i can think off" :>.

I'm just worried about reflect, since I've heard several people on HC say you -will- get oneshot to reflect eventually with top-end gear, even with 8-9k life, and people like RaizQT when he streamed EA, went vaal pact for that very reason.

Your thoughts about that? Will I die to reflect eventually if I forget to pop my Ruby flask?

And wouldn't the 0.2% leech be quite a deal in end-game setup? I thought so.

0.2 is to low, i wouldnt rely on it alone. U cant do full ele reflect maps ofc but normal reflect shouldnt hurt u more then ~5-6k without ruby, with fortify even less.

also a side notice.. some ppl played this build to lvl 100 on talisman hc soo...



Edit: Uploading the t13 volls video

But what happens if you run Dried Lake and insta kill everything.
A wild rare appears... oh i shooted everything at him... am i dead?

lold - they dont have enough life. I am talking about a T15 map with a 2 man party, then u'll get 5-6k reflected without ruby. Generally if u died with this build, it was 100% ur fault.
