Laio - Elemental Equilibrium Caster

Features:

Firestorm
+Inc. Duration
+Lightning Damage

Freezing Pulse
+Faster Projectiles
+Lesser Multiple Projectiles
+Lightning Damage

This basically allows both skills to keep neutral damage at all times with Equillibrium. However, when I cast firestorm and then spam freezing pulse into it, I get a +50% bonus (technically more) damage each time! The fast cast speed of pulse and fast fireballs of firestorm allow it to go back and forth quickly :)

How To:

Cast Firestorm in front of you (where you anticipate mobs to be) and then spam freezing pulse into that firestorm. If there are only a couple mobs/all small mobs freezing pulse alone should do the trick.

EDIT: GGG: please at least try this character. You'll see that I can kill just as fast if not faster if I just use Freezing Pulse and Firestorm INDEPENDENTLY. I really think you need to buff Elemental Equillibrium: even at it's best it's no better than casting Elemental Weakness. I discuss the drawbacks in this thread:

Elemental Equilibrium Discussion

Sounds like a fascinating build, at least in theory if not in practice. You're really making me want to cast Firestorm + Cold Damage + Duration and Spark + Pierce + GMP + Cold Damage in a crowded room somewhere. Hopefully some skill duration passives will be in a reasonable place for that in the new tree.

Hey there!

my witch would be a really good example of how to use elemental equilibrium.

I use Freezing Pulse as my primary attack and Firestorm to keep resetting the resistance to fire (I cast firestorm and keep casting lots of Freezing Pulse underneath it). This in combination with Elemental Weakness makes for a really sick decreased resistances (-66% =D).

In addition I use the usual auras such as Clarity etc to help me out with my mana pool.

Sadly my gear isn't super specialized for this build, but I think my character is pretty unique because of the very specific use of spells and curses that all come together for some really good damage.

No offense, but literally everybody does this build. It's all I see.
Where is #6? Chris, are you too busy getting 9.11 ready? I hope so! :)

Any chance we could get an ETA on the patch notes for 0.9.11? :O

probably when 9.11 is live! :) so very soon. excited cant even compare to what im feeling now.. that new passive skill tree is delicious..


also, what a kicka** build. very unique, and took what i had imagined to a whole new level. i think i may copy it. but focus on shield charge, cause that skill is still my favorite. :)

The problem with that is that I'm not sure when it'll be live. Monday for them is Sunday for me.
Quonic - Clarity Wrath Necromancer


Features:

Raise Zombie
+Minion Life
+Minion Damage

Freezing Pulse
+Increased Critical
+Lightning Damage

Summon Skeletons
Raise Spectra

With my passive touching every skill that gives an additional minion. I can have about 20+ minions active at one time. Couple that with Wrath, all my minions have added lightning damage. Even on the bosses that have no other monsters to kill for additional minions, I'm still able to summon skeletons to deal most of the damage.

Clarity is required for the massive amounts of mana that this build uses and even with Wrath, the mana regen is high enough to sustain a long combat or a large conflict.

Right now my backup damage dealer is Freezing Pulse and with the Increased Critical, I can freeze monsters about half of the time.

This build is a bit boring to play, as you aren't in the middle of combat all the time. It's mostly summon and sit back and let you minions do all the work.

Now that 0.9.11 is out, we have a new thread here. Once you have your characters updated for the new passive skill tree, please resubmit them in that thread so that we know they're current. Thanks!
