Yeah i use conc for bosses, but I'm still nowhere near 8m dps, how does he do it? Is it a combination of all the gear and gems etc to get that much dps?

A lot of little things add up yes. You also have a low roll facebreaker. I think it's actually less dps than a non-corrupt one. Also when looking at your profile I see a weapon in your mainhand. Make sure that's always empty and turn off auto equip so it doesn't happen. If you've been playing with that it will destroy your dps.

I didn't feel the dps on the non crit so I went cluster jewels and have about 10m shaper dps right now. Feels a lot better to me. Less tanky for sure but when things die faster they have less chance to hit you.

I dont have the dex for the sword so it doesnt factor that in and im still unarmed, just using it to level gems. I did a test with the uncorrupted 800% gloves and the damage without vuln on hit is actually less than the 629% vuln on hit gloves I have.

Hey,
I have to share my variation of this build.
It is really really strong.
It is not cheap ~30-40 exa so far but if you have the money, you can pretty much facetank every physical bosses without a scratch and most of the elemental hits are absorbed as well.
I do a simulacrum with all 20 waves, without getting less than 80% of hp. In most waves it's 100% all the time but the boss can sometime hit me and reduce it a little bit (never had below 50%).

This is my PoB:

The idea is to have ~50k armor with this facebreaker build and have the molten shell up almost all of the time. I still want to reduce the cooldown even more but at the moment it's on for ~6 sec and down for 3 sec. So you want to use it, do a lot of damage and then be safe for a short time (still fighting but avoiding the boss for example) and start it again. I have 90% physical damage reduction all the time so physical damage is not an issue even without the molten shell. However, molten shell takes ~10k of damage from me so I can't really get hit from anything.

Tell me what you think :)

I forgot to mention that I did a full delirium map with this build. It was really hard but I managed to finish it :)

hi guys, sorry a noob here with this built. I started as an ED/Contagion and after farming some good currency decided I needed a boss killer.

I'm sure I'm doing somethin wrong and missing many items and upgrades....but could you give me some pointers?

I got 1-shot by Sirus AL8 on an on, no matter what I can even get close to him. The meteors just destroy me.

Awakeners are ok, and I can do most of the other content. I've got some currency and can farm some more....but would like to know on how to progress cause I'm a bit lost with it. Thanks for your tips in advance! Let me know if you can see my tree too. Thanks!

Can I get help on what to improve? I think my DPS is sht.

Lvl 21 Herald of Purity
Get all your 6l gems to 21/20
Lvl 4 empower
Swap in silver flask instead of diamond since you can't crit
If you can get a corrupted +1 gems or +2 duration shield that's big too
Cluster jewel I'd suggest getting rid of medium since precise focus does nothing for you. Get a large cluster w/ 8-10 passives and 3 notables, 2 jewel sockets. 2 notables should be Deep cuts and feed the fury and the 3rd doesn't matter.

Why does this build stack so much strength?

why no one use rage support?

Would 650% physical damage + curse vul still be worth it?

If not, what % would be worth it with curse, 700?

Asking because 790+ curse is way too expensive (30 ex) so trying to find a middle ground tahts better than regular 800% gloves

Question on the rings, I see everyone going for the + damage reduction,is the increased Physical Damage not worth it?
Other than they are far more expensive?

using it, POB says 6% increased damage with rage, just needs some time to get the stacks. Guess in some situations melee phys is better (sirus fight will be hard to maintain stacks).

Still using CWDT Level 1 + Vulnerability Level 5, works fine for me, so didn`t feel the need to invest 20+ ex. Would be interested in the math too.

POB says about 10% increased damage when you use that ring, wouldn`t sacrifice the phys damage reduction though. Don`t feel dps missing in t16 maps.
