[3.6 Video Guide] Volatile Dead Elementalist (or Inquisitor) [HC/SC/Uber Izaro/Shaper]

Build is now updated for 3.2, I will continue responding to each and every question again as always <3

Is it a viable league starter after all these Elementalist changes? Will these changes affect endgame bosses viability with the build? Wasn't sure between this build and Enki's Arc one and wanted to see which one is most viable for the endgame content. Thanks in advance for the attention! ^^

You reckon this build would be viable for day 1 HOGM farm?

Really nice build, i wonder how i can see the dps in PoB . I only see the average hit and not the DPS you can get with this build.

For Melee Skeletons, does it "need" spectres? I feel like specters require more game knowledge than I have I don't understand which ones to get when, etc.

I was wondering if there was a better way to handle this if yo udidn't want to.

OR should I suck it up and learn cause it's very strong and will help me a lot?

In the guide it says the following:

"

Ascendancy Nodes:
You start of by taking the Paragon of Calamity to then pick up Pendulum of Destruction after this you pick up the Mastermind of Discord to then finish everything of with 2x golems via: Liege of the Primordial.

The Uber lab grants you 2 possibilities:
1) Either grab the 2 small nodes for extra damage
2) Grab Paragon of Calamity.

It's a bit confusing, can you change or explain it? :)

Hey,

Due to leaguestart my first round of forum thread responding wasn't till now!
The answer is that this build is absolutely fine, though due to the lack of buffs to Elementalist I believe the Inquisitor is still stronger for the sake of VD but it's absolutely fine on the Elementalist :)

Hm... I think so, though I'd honestly rather do that as an Inquisitor for the sake of critting & then later Poet's Pen approach.

Wrong build guide thread!

Though, to answer your question before forcing you to ask further questions in the correct thread for the sake of not confusing newer players:

You don't need spectres, they are simply complementary additions depending on which type of skellies you use (melee/mages vs SG/TV spectres). To handle without, you simply remove the ascendancy node and take something else instead :) Perhaps a proper setup for zombies and a seperate one for AG, the choices are wide.

Thanks again for reminding me about this, deleted the last part of that section which was accidentally left behind whilst I updated the guide for 3.2 :)

Ghazzy thanks for changing that Ascendancy part :)

Would you be so kind to tell me/us what levels all the gems need to be, or atleast the ones that need to be a specific level (like immortal call / CwDT )

Thanks!

My pleasure bro!

It's a matter of taste, I prefer lvl 3 CWDT with lvl 5 IC for example :)

So what am i suppose to do to be able to equip all the heralds and clarity?
