Hi,

Is there a good replacement for Rathpith Globe? Its in warbands now arround 30 ex, so almost impossible to get one.

Looks like GGG has changed the rarity - I don't even know why they would do that.

Use Crest of Perandus if you can, or Great Old One's Ward. Try and upgrade to a high-EV shield with life later on.

Some nice Warbands uniques you can try with this build:

Very high damage boots for Projectile Version:




Nice ring for your minion, with some small dodge as well:

Wouldnt a Saffell's or a Lioneye's remorse be decent in place? They are dirt cheap aswell.

Yeah whatever you can get your hands on. Saffell's sets your block to 0% so that would not be a good option.

We do not use armor so getting an armor shield is kinda a waste I think.

Hey im starting to run this build and was wondering if you had any suggestions as to any skill tree changes i might want to apply if im running this in hardcore? I really like lightning strike as a skill and would like to somehow implement it into HC. FYI running the projectile version of this build.

Hi thanks for posting. I really wish there was a way to make this build hardcore but I don't think it is.

- it is high crit so you will likely die to reflect eventually, especially since we don't take Ondar's anymore

- it also depends a lot on your gameplay, if you can play ranged well and not let anything get close to you then this build is very strong

Overall I would not recommend for Hardcore. Even getting more life would not help you survive.

There are mobs in 75+ maps that autoattack for 2K+. Bosses can even autoattack for 4K+ hits.

The damage is just too crazy. Some top streamer (Raiz) died instantly with 9K life on Tempest by regular mobs on I think a 79 map.

Daum id really like to make this character work in hc, ive already started working on it ;-;. well imma try sacrifice a couple of damage nodes in order to reach some more block nodes i guess. even still can you give me any suggestions? ive already started a bit of theory crafting in terms of gear and such

The damage is insane i got oneshot by a bunch of cobras with some blue mod, 4.5k life l72map, one shot again doing a mf run in museum by a beyond spawn. Its kinda ranged or gtfo for this side of tree.

kinda this - acrobatics cements your doom unless you're super ranged and still have to play ridiculously safe with lots of HP to at least take one hit.

Hi, I would just like to share my build, which is a copy/modified version of
Tiurakh's. Since making the original version of this build, I've been stuck
to it and I have always tried to make a "newer" version everytime there's a
new patch

My EVA-Lightning Strike build as of patch 2.0 (Garena Server):
(currently a Scion)

Passive skill tree notables
- Acro-Phase Acrobatics
- %Life/Eva nodes near the Ranger Area
- Eva/Elemental Resist nodes near the Acrobatics group
- Soul drinker nodes near the Acrobatics group
- Vaal Pact
** all other nodes are almost the same as Tiurakh's

Equipment
- (Chest) 6L Lightning Coil with the ff links:
- Lightning Strike - MultiStrike - FA - WED - Inc. Crit Dmg - *Life Leech*
- (Head) Rat's Nest
- (Shield) Saffell's Frame
- (Boots) Atziri's Step
- Gloves, Belt, Diamond Rings, Amulet - all rares, with a mix of (of course)
life, resist, STR, Accuracy, addn'l Physical Damage

Summary of my character:
- (Physical) 37% Evasion, 40% Dodge, ~30% Physical damage reduction
- (Spell) 46% dodge, 14%(?) block, +4% max resistances
- all these defences combined with Vaal Pact + Life Leech gem gives good
survivability, as such I play it as a melee character
