RG_PankO's Onslaught Cheap Farming Build - Low Life RF Spork without Shavronne's Wrappings

Currently level 41 and my DPS is absolutely abysmal, it's sitting at 71.5 with spark/fork/totem/faster casting. What can I do to improve it?

Switch back for freezing pulse. Switching to spark early is abysmal. Don't switch to spark unless you're in your high 60s when you switch to low life.

I am currently going Facebreakers + Melee Splash + Infernal Blow setting, to level my witch to 60, where I'll switch to Spork. It's very efficient if you have the stuff !

What do you need for that build? Also are you following the spork passives and managing this?

I have facebreakers, quality infernal blow, probably could pick up a melee splash. I tried this at level 30ish on my witch that was using cleave to level and I would miss a lot (and swing really slowly) and it was sort of dangerous how low my life dropped since I had to be so close to the enemy. Any advice?

Also regarding OP is RF LF spork still viable with the blood magic unique nerfs? Do you just use a blood magic gem now and reserve your HP low enough for LF to kick in?

Thanks in advance to replies~

I'm following spork passives, but taking life nodes in priority.

You need good jewelry in order to get max damage from Facebreakers.
Look for "Adds x-x physical damage" on Amulet and both Rings.

Main hand : nothing equipped of course
Offhand : Crest of Perandus (tanky) or Broadstroke quiver (damage)
Belt : The Magnate (poor) or Meginord's Girdle (rich)


I'm currently playing HC, and linking Infernal Blow > Melee Splash > Added Fire Damage > Additional Accuracy
I used Accuracy because I hated missing after a long and slow arm swing (lazy taking Resolute Technique), now it almost never miss and I one-shot absolutely every pack (rares too), leveling very fast without caring about my passive tree.

Thanks, going to test this out as soon as I get home.

Some people recommend skipping the cast speed and lightning damage nodes at the witch start in favor of more crit nodes.
For example with lightning/cast speed nodes:

First vs. Second:
54% Lightning Damage
9% Cast Speed
18% Spell Damage
-80% crit chance
-140% crit multiplier

I'm using a slightly above average Moonsorrow (better than redbeak with my tree, which is the first one), at least on paper. Given Spark's relatively low built-in Crit Chance of 4%, that 80% increased crit chance seems ineffective to me, though on the other hand that 80% increased chance to crit = 80% greater chance to shock, which adds that 40% MORE damage...

Opinions welcome!

Alright, Im gonna try this out, thanks for the thread!

thx for that mf guide. found an andvarius and an ex 2 maps after :-)
