[2.5][Assassin]Dual DoT Kondo's Pride Crit Build [HC/SC] Atziri/Uber lab/T16 viable
Hello everyone
This build is about utilizing the new unique Kondo's Pride, which seems being hugely underestimated. It could easily crush monsters up to T15 with gears worth 1 ex total or less. Which makes it a very budget and newbee friendly build. Gameplay Videos: Uber lab run: https://youtu.be/GTcd2JJQ62M *P3 fight starts in 7:35 and ends in 7:40 Atziri run: https://youtu.be/jHpi21ydmbo T16 Phoenix Down
Pros&Cons
Pros: Super strong DPS. Killing Atziri/Izaro/T15 bosses within few seconds. Budget friendly. Dont need expensive gears to work. Safe and easy to play as a totem build. Scaling damage with gears and levels very well. Cons: A little squishy just like all 2h build. Need more investment to make it tanker(Kaom's Heart or CI)
Mechanic explaination
Kondo's Pride is a unique 2h swords introduced in 2.4. The pDPS ranges from 430-473 ,which is quite decent. However,the truly shining part of this baby is the unique ability: Causes Bleeding on Melee Critical Strike. It makes it possible to cause bleeding with every melee skill, even without voidheart/chance to bleeding passives. Combines with Noxious Strike which poison bleeding enemy, It could apply Dual-DoT. As everyone know in last league,bleeding/poison gives sick damage because of 2dip. And we are applying dots with critical hits,which is already huge numbers in the first place. To makes it crazier,Toxic Delivery deals 100% [MORE] poison and bleeding damage. The damage here is truly skyrocketed.

Mods we need: damage/totem damage/aoe damage/critical chance/criticl multiplier/attack speed These are the expensive stuffs which almost everyone needs. The good news is we can also use some very niche mods: 2h weapon damage/sword damage/2h critical chance/2h critical multiplier/2h attack speed As there are very few people playing 2h crit build, I successfully got a few 4 damage mods jewel with 5c or cheaper.

leveling
For leveling,we can use blade vortex before getting dual totems(or even a few levels after if you like). It benefits from all the passives we allocate early. If going CI,I would recommend to do the switch only after level 75, so you can equip the highest tier es gears and have the points to invest es passives. 80 points https://www.pathofexile.com/passive-skill-tree/AAAABAYBALDYotmEoiM2yBQHmVMQ9W9Z8BewaoxMjkqLFr9qQ3X9vOqEb9RCtUhd8g5IKgsRlnBSf8aTJ5rgbAsi9I_6bRnR_Yw2NumX9F5d42pVSwj0JKpSU6eUFm9h4iaVOliXlT1ffINVxkyzg9vAVAQH0B9TUh8C7-tEoUWdNsWD89gklounCNW5j0br7q4SHRQy0frSFe1FR4nTZp5UvcBmWOVcQCoTWiuj8vDVSVEHHpUu 61 points https://www.pathofexile.com/passive-skill-tree/AAAABAYBALDYotmEoiM2yBQHmVMQ9W9Z8BewaoxMjkqLFr9qQ3X9vOqEb9RCtUhd8g5IKgsRlnBSf8aTJ2wLIvRtGYw2l_TjalVLCPRSUxZvYeImlTpYl5U9X1XGTLOD28BUBAfQHx8C7-tEoTbFg_PYJKcIj0auEh0U-tKJ02aeWOUqE1oro_JJUfDVlS4HHg== 41 points https://www.pathofexile.com/passive-skill-tree/AAAABAYBALDYotmEoiM2yBQHmVMQ9W9Z8BewaoxMjkqLFr9qQ3X9hG_UQrVIXfIOSCoLEZZwUn_GkydsCyL0bRmMNpf0VUsI9FJTYeImlTpYl5U9X1XGTLOD28BUBAeJ00lR8NWVLgce 18 points https://www.pathofexile.com/passive-skill-tree/AAAABAYBALDYotmEoiM2yBQHmVMQ9W9Z8BewaoxMjkqLFr91_YRv1EK1SF3yKgtwUow2VUth4iaVidM=

FAQ
Q:Is Atziri's Disfavour better than Kondo's in this build? A:Atziri's Disfavour IS better than Kondo's but the difference is very merginal. A prefect rolled Kondo's has (256.2+474.6)/2=365 DPH*1.25 APS, a prefect rolled Disfavour has (314+421)/2=367 DPH*1.39 APS. The DPH are almost same.Disfavour gets more damage due to the higher APS. But as bleeding cannot be stacked,APS would not matter so much in our dot build. The APS,+2 support gems and +2 range does help in clearing speed though. Furthermore,A prefect rolled 6L Kondo's cost 4-6 ex, and a prefect rolled 6L Disfavour would cost 100 ex. A nearly prefected rolled 6L Disfavour would cost 20 ex. *There is only 1 prefect rolled Disfavour on sale for 100ex in both ESC and SC . (seems no one will sell max rolled Disfavour without 6L it) Please leave a comment in this thread if you have any questions.

N00b questions:
- does the melee damage on full life gem rely on the totem leeching life ? It's an unusual choice without Discipline or somesuch. - what's the role of frost wall in the build ? Thanks. |
|
" -Melee damage on full life gives the more damage bonus as long as you are full life yourself. Totem life doesn't matter. -frost wall is used to protect your totems(and yourself) from ranged attacks/spells. As the warcheif totem has a 1s delay to start attack(the time ancestor takes to pop up), it's very vulnerable in such situation that mobs could kill the totem before it starts slamming. frost wall helps a lot there. Its merely a QoL setting ,not a must.Though I found its very helpful in my gameplay. |

Hey i am currently leveling up this build and wanted to know what you thought about going life with Belly of the Beast and Devoto's Devotion. I am planning on mainly using this build to farm uber lab. Any thoughts?
Also what order do you recommend taking Ascension nodes? Thanks Last edited by JokerGore#3926 on Sep 19, 2016, 9:41:09 PM
