[3.14] Bloodslinger | Corrupting Fever | Exsanguinate | KB Bleed Explosions
Im just taking a guess here, but u mean 750k dps and not 750m+ damage?

Worth noting that duelist doesn't get efficacy naturally from vendor - you'll have to trade for it prior to a3.

" You'll probably only use reap for leveling since it has a really high base damage at low levels, but it'll fall off late game for slinger. " Haha, heck yeah, same here- most of the time I regret it, but I think these will actually be pretty good based on the numbers/mechanics. " That is a great freaking idea, and I totally forgot it exists on the left side of the tree- will add that in. " Yeah, that's a typo haha- supposed to be 750k. " Good point for the Duellist. It'll be tough to start with a Duellist since you hardly get any gem supports for it, but hopefully the late game explosions/mapping speed makes up for it. I'm personally starting Scion, because I want to transition into some Mom/Indigon Reap/Exsanguinate shenanigans late game. Coldslinger: https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/2797749

What ascendant nodes are you thinking for the scion? glad/trickster?
|
|
Also are you sure duelist gets the blood gems from quests? I've read somewhere you gotta get them from library.

" This is my Ascendant POB: https://pastebin.com/NUHASj1h I'm planning to go Glad/Pathfinder w/ Petrified Blood and using flasks to keep life maxed out. Specifically making scion for the insane tankiness it offers through flasks. Coldslinger: https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/2797749

" Ahh dang, I just double-checked the patch notes and you're right, it looks like you don't get Exsanguinate or Reap as a Duellist. I mistakenly assumed you did after reading that you get Corrupting Fever as a duellist. This will shuffle up league start a bit, but you can still pick them up at A3 library as you said. From patch notes: -Exsanguinate is now offered to the Scion for completing The Siren's Cadence, and can be purchased from Nessa by the Marauder, Templar and Witch. -Corrupting Fever is now offered to the Marauder, Duelist and Scion for completing Intruders in Black, and can be purchased from Yeena by the Templar. -Reap is now offered to the Scion for completing Sever the Right Hand, and can be purchased from Clarissa by the Marauder, Templar and Witch. -Lifetap Support is now offered to the Marauder, Templar, Duelist and Scion for completing The Caged Brute, and can be purchased from Nessa.

Another issue I see is, that Reap skill doesn't get blood charges when triggered. So that loses some value.
| |
" Yep, this is exactly why we don't use it late game, just for leveling up since it has really high base damage early on. Coldslinger: https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/2797749

So why duelist instead of shadow? Can I see a breakdown of why you're choosing Duelist?
