[2.2] [HC] Malibu's CoC - Let's Get Physical [Best Build Ever? Click(bait) to find out!]

Updated with a new video - HC, CI, hobo gear @ level 71. Proof of concept and budget viability.

How did you survive the chaos damage before acquiring Shav's?

Do you have extra leech on jewels? i find it a bit hard to sustain mana.
And it feels like the 0.2 life leech from doryani's thats applied to energy shield doesnt do much...
What jewlels do you use and recommend? (on the low life build)

Im thinking of changing Doryan's belt for The Retch, to have even 0.4 leech, thought of that?

For life leech I rely on the Warlord's Mark and Atziri's Promise. I use Doryani's because it's cheap, has 100+ resists, Physical Damage and Strength. .2 or .4 leech on a belt will be completely negligible compared to the 4% you get from your curse and flask. You could use The Retch or a rare belt, it's totally up to you.

And I don't currently have mana on hit jewels but they are a big help on curse immune maps where you can't leech your mana from Warlord's. You could also craft up some Elreon rings but that's by far the most expensive option, and I personally don't find it necessary.

99.9% of your damage comes from the spells, so spell crit buffs your damage immensely. I've only put seven points into spell crit, though, and haven't picked up any that were out of the way. It's pretty easy to hit the crit cap (95%) on cyclone with this tree. Try to think of them as completely separate stats, like spell proc chance (crit) vs damage (spell crit).

makes sense, just confused my newb brain for a second... follow up: spells cast by CoC make their own crit rolls right? the spell doesn't automatically crit because the cyclone did?

Correct. If you check the tooltips I have posted you can see the three different crit chances for Cyclone, EK and Bladefall (since EK and Bladefall have different base crit chance).

Double posted somehow like an idiot :x

When did you respec on your HC character?

So I really like this build and plan on it being my 2nd build that I've actually try harded. I just have a few questions regarding some stuff.

1. Why do you run CI and Pain atunement? Do you get the LL buff from ES as well?

I wanna run the Low Life version of this build because I love super DPS builds.

2. Part of getting to low life is running blood magic+aura if I'm not mistaken but I'm confused as to how people are able to manage a ton of life when they run blood magic. Even with a level 20 blood magic how are you able to get to 1400 unreserved life?

Thanks!
