Hi,

I do not know how get 30k dps with your build, I have tried to change some points in order to get at least 25k dps but the max dps I have is 14k. Please, could you take a look to my gear and tree? maybe you can see why my dps is only 14k

and my build tree:

Im trying to get RRGB in helmet, so that explain the strange gems on boots and helmet.

Thanks in advance,

Looks like there is no damage on none of your rings or belt. Corrupt gems as per few pages back or look at Dragon's gem setup. They make a huge diffs!

Edit: Having max gems and Damage on gear as per Dragons, you will see a massive increase. Your tree is spot on. Just keep levelling.

Thanks for your fast reply AqUaLoRd.

I have tested a belt with 25%physical damage and 30% elemental damage and my dps increase 1k, about the rings I have seen that I increase a lot my dps with increase physical damaga, but I have this stat in 1 ring only. I should change the other one with physical too. I can add too in gloves fast attack but I think that my dps will not increase from 14k to 30k. Do you know what is the best stat to increase my dps? I thought that the best one is add more physical attack.

Regarding corrupt gems as per few pages back or look at Dragon's gem setup, I have the same setup that dragon. I only need to test the add light/fire damage in rings to see if the dps increase a lot.


Could you link your gear, tree and dps?

I have seen that you post your stats before:

Before
DPS: 25821.1 --> 23058
LIFE: 3803 --> 4008
ES: 1323 --> 1157
ARMOUR: 26127 --> 24573

FR: 75%(138%)--> 75%(160%)
CR: 80%(110%)--> 80%(132%)
LR: 75%(144%)--> 75%(166%)
CR: 27%(27%)--> 47% (47%)

CTBA: 75% --> 75%
CTBS: 65% --> 56% <--FUUCKK!!??

How is possible get CTBS 65%?

and the last question, do you think that is better go with 80% res to all using purity of fire/light or replace those purtiy gems for haste?

Thanks

Are you keeping in mind that cyclone dps is actually double what tooltip shows? Looking over your gear and build, the only thing I see is that you have blood magic linked to leap slam, which you do not need if you have soul taker.

I have almost 7k tooltip dps just standing in town, so I find it hard to believe that you have only 14k actual dps. Please remember that Cyclone's tooltip dps is actually showing the damage of ONE swing.

further updates to the early post: Cyclone's DPS display is wrong. It does not account for the fact cyclone hit's twice per attack duraiton rather than once like a regular skill. Thus it willb e displaying half the actual DPS value. I am not aware of any other issues with DPS display for this skill.

I am actually testing a new version of the build that has 70% spell block and 36K dps, but does not have the 2 purity auras. So far it looks promising, but I would never attempt to take on certain bosses w/o swapping in purity gems. But luckily, that is a simple process. Seems like building around 1% of content isn't really necessary when you can just gear/gem swap before a boss.

Who knew?!

Thanks for you reply Dragon, thats have more sense for me. I have 14k dps tooltip dps with hatred, so its mean that my dps is 28K.

About how to get 70% spell block, how is possible? using another spell block items? Please, could you post your new one?

About purity gems, I thougt too using only in bosses or maps with high elemental damage, for exapmle if the boss damage is fire, I will use only purity of fire, the others auras maybe could be hatred, grace and haste.

Thanks again for your work.
I hope kill atziri one day with my marauder :)

This is the build I have been playing with lately.


Sadly, it took me like 36 regrets to do it. It was kind of a YOLO decision but so far I am pleased with it. So basically, with this build plus Stone of Lazhwar and Rainbowstrides, you get 66% chance to block spells. If you get a corrupted Stone of Laz with 4% spellblock, that gives you 70%. I haven't had luck getting my hands on a 4% but I DO have a 2% and am currently sitting at 68% chance to block spells.

Finally hit 92 tonight and decided to hit up Queen Quadtits for a rematch. I won after a little learning curve. First kill for me. Better late than never! Protip, don't attack the clone with the shield -_-

Making the vids to post on guide now, but might only get one uploaded before bed/work.

Apex of Sacrifice first 2 bosses

Atziri
It's not pretty... but it gets done! Also, my first kill so I still have a few bugs to work out.

Gz for your first Atziri kill.

I have seen that your ES is only 800, please, could you post your stats with the new build?
I think that the key of this build should be the ES and high AR. This new build have 10% extra block spell but you loss AR and ES.

No worries, this version of Dragon's build (the one I'm playing) revolves around Infernal Blow and I rely heavily on the explosion for fast-ish map clears. So far so good and I have gotten addicted to the splatter and gore - Thanks Dragon! - The best way to increase your DPS is via physical as it multiplies greatly with 22\20 hatred (in the helm).

So this build differs from Dragons.

Here is my gear.

Dragon answered the spell block one nicely. I have a bit more ES with far less spell block but I feel with US that is not a real issue as nothing is preventing me from blocking as I can not be stunned. My ES recharges full everytime i block due to high armour. So when ES is down, I spam the flasks. But generally killing the hardest hitting mobs first before the smaller ones help with ES regeneration.

Dragons version is capable of killing Queen 4tits - this one not - or at least not on L95 with IB
