[2.2] TABASCO - very cheap & very strong
|
Dear fellow exiles,
I'd like to introduce build I made: Toxic Angry Bladefaller Arranging Silent Chaos Overtime shortly: TABASCO  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sHIAJDgDVg8 Build backround
Spoiler
 The way you live determines the way you die. I was always trying to create my own builds. Few of them were almost impossible to play due to lame design of tree and items ... and because I was poor as fuck every single league. For Perandus League I was trying Arctic breath elementalist but Labyrinth fucked with me. Then Raider - windripper in future. Again lack of gear ended this way. So I decided to try shadow because of its changes of tree last league. The double nodes +physical/chaos damage made me think about how to profit from both bonuses and still stay "AOE". I was planning the tree for EK. It was pretty good but not enough. So I decided to take nodes for AoE from tree and started building around Bladefall. Very soon I found it very strong and with right support gems I was able to kill all even in seconds... and now... here I stand prepared for all the challenges one can do. Thank you for reading this bullshit. ________________________________________________________________________________ Gear:

explanation: Apep's rage - source of power ... and cast speed (50%cast speed allows us to not use faster casting gem. Tabula rasa - source of six link (+1 to level of socketed gems is nice to have, not necessary) Goldrim - source of resistances, can be good rare for sure Blood Dance - source of frenzy charges (my enchant is pretty good, didn't try any other) Maligaro's virtuosity - source of ... I don't know - critical shit whatever :-) (I would kill for Acuity) Zerpi's last breath - /survival mode on - life leech Link: Bladefall - Added Fire Damage - Increased Area of Effect, Concetrated effect - Poison - Reduced mana (I was playing ethereal knives till 62 with reverberation rod linked: EK-Faster casting-Added fire damage (output is powerful) My current gear (experimenting little bit with Daresso's chest and Wyrmsign gloves)

Bladefall links:

5L - Bladefall - Reduced mana - Concentrated effect - Increased area of effect - Poison
6L - Bladefall - Reduced mana - Concentrated effect - Increased area of effect - Poison - Added fire damage / Added chaos damage (Tested both, both pretty good - it depends on your choice) Skill tree: Numbers - DPS, character sheet:
Spoiler
Unbuffed Bladefall - 0 power, 0 frenzy charges  Buffed Bladefall - 6 power, 4 frenzy charges  Character sheet  Mechanics:
Spoiler
Combination of Chaos+physical damage to maximize effectivity of starting tree of Shadow. I play Assassin with Ambush + Unstable Infusion + Toxic delivery.
High mana cost of linked bladefall is reduced by Reduced mana (124 per cast - you need only 2 or 3 casts to kill Voll in merciless dried like). My gear misses armor nodes so I decided to go Acrobatics + planned HP pool 179%. Also when in trouble just put Zerpi's mana flask and enjoy leech (800%*124=992 leech/sec - I'm so sad I don't have vaal pact :-)) Frenzy charges are obtained by Blood Dance. Power charges are obtained by Assassin's mark (blasphemy)+ Unstable Infusion. Auras: Blasphemy (Assassin's mark) Clarity Defence mechanics: Life leech + life regeneration from Blood dance CWDT - Frost wall - Detonate Dead - Vaal summon skeleton Golem: Stone golem - life regen is so absurd ... :D Movement skill Flame dash + Faster casting + Blood magic Bandits
Spoiler
Oak - Skill point - Alira/Kraityn/Skill point (I have Alira)
Planned tree: Total amount of currency needed: Tabula - 15c Apep's rage - (I bought one for 1fus and second for chaos) 2c Maligaro's virtuosity - 15c Amulet - self found (need to change for one with resists) Blood Dance - 10c Rings - self found Helmet - 5c Total: 47c Pros and cons
Spoiler
+ Cheap
+ Powerful + Funny gameplay + AoE skill is actually your 1 target skill due to its power + Noob friendly (Atziri viable in right hands...) + Can do merci labyrinth easily - Cannot do reflect phys maps - Cannot facetank hard hitting bosses - Gameplay is not just pushing the 1 button, you need to rush into pack of enemies - Sometimes you die because evasion and acrobatics sucks since 2.1 - You need to keep your eye on mana pool and flasks sometimes I know, this thread will miss the video, but build is actually very strong and if you try it, you will like it. Feel free to answer all your questions - DingoTheEthereal Changelog: 1) added pros and cons 2) labyrinth - completed in all three difficulties 3) pictures added - tree redesigned 4) new structure - bandit options added, mechanics part redesigned 5) added explanation to gear section 6) build backround added Last edited by pajingtonn#4403 on Mar 18, 2016, 8:00:09 AM Last bumped on Nov 25, 2016, 9:13:47 PM

hi , your build is amazing , i have a question
in the wep i can use bino's kitchen ? for beter damage? |

" I really didn't have a chance to try that. If I had two binos, I could try it. My aim from start was to use apep's rage. Poison is just additional bonus, main damage comes from pure chaos damage. Last edited by pajingtonn#4403 on Mar 13, 2016, 9:51:35 AM

Hey man the build looks awsome i wanna try it. But you can do atziri's with it?

"of course you can. You'll need to kite a little bit and swap Faster casting instead of increased AoE and maybe mana leech swap for added fire Last edited by pajingtonn#4403 on Mar 17, 2016, 12:50:00 PM
