This build will be effective after the 0:11 patch?

Yes, it will still be effective. In fact, now you have more choices on defense, grab more armor nodes, and all specific weapon nodes will get a huge buff as well. The only nerf will be Static Blow (45% -> 20%), but with Conductivity + Elemental Proliferation, I'm not really concern about shock stacking.

I'll still be playing my LS build on the new patch, and even make a new one on the Anarchy league if I have spare time :) Will update the thread to patch 0.11.0 after some testing tomorrow.

I will try ur build after reset =)

If you do a passive rebuild would you mind re-posting your build?

Thanks

Just did a slight change for the final build (level 100 build) post patch, grabbing Unwavering Stance and more armor nodes. I'll do a comparison of pre-patch and post-patch stats difference.

Here is the stats comparison lv87 pre vs post patch: http://bit.ly/14jzJiE

Lightning Strike Damage: 15968 -> 19892 DPS (big boost to dps due to melee node buff)
Health: 7180 -> 6081 (1.1k hp lost from 2% life nerd per node)
Armor: 11.2k -> 10.4k (armor slightly lower due to Inner Force nerf)
Lightning Damage: 637-1285 -> 756-1816 (huge lightning portion gain)

There is a big lightning portion damage gain as well, I can barely feel Static Blow nerf and still able to shock mobs like pre-patch. Armor lost is negligible because of lower monster damage. A massive damage gain, doing 20k DPS with Elemental Proliferation really feels good.The build still work really well, if not better.

Would not rebuild / make a big changes to the current build on this main toon as it works pretty good at end game. However, I have a level 86 spare character available to reset, hoping to look for a variation with crit while maintaning the auras and shock stacking play style.

hey man i realized you said 2 diffrent things about gems first one is in under "gems you need while levelling" and 2nd one is your "current gear " setup i know its your setup but which should i follow to make it right ?

Thank you in advance.

Those under "Gems while leveling" are pre-koam's heart gems, for example you may use leap slam with faster attack if you are not using Koams, due to more sockets. Those with * skill gems are base on situation (level them if you have spare slots).

Hi Vin,

after 2x Shadow LvL 81 / 1x Witch LvL 83 / I started your build and after 2 days I confirm this:

This is one of the most fun character I have made (05-April). With decent dps + defenses, and the ability to give support to party with 7 auras + shock stacks, I would recommend this build to players that are interested on starting a new melee character. Give it a try, its simple to play yet effective!

Currently LvL 61 / with 6 Auras on and 7k DPS. Here my gear:



One question regarding the Bandit reward in Merciless. I think about to kill all bandits as I am not comfortable with enduring cry - Or will I need it to survive on the higher LvL Maps?

Glad to hear that you enjoy the build as much as I do :) I felt that Merciless bandit reward is almost base of how you play the character. Some of us like to build a pure melee DPS, hence, grabbing additional skill point grants you more DPS. As for myself, I prefer an extra endurance charge (I have a habbit to rush into the front line), so getting damage reduction is a bonus.
