1h + shield hardcore build.

This is my lightning striker.

Do you concider this a good build, or do you see flaws?

I would apreciate tips, because do fine solo (~72 maps). But in groups I feel weak and useless, also temple piety gives me a lot of trouble because I dont have saffels yet.

You need static blows for non crit LS, also try to get life leech from gear/blood rage/ leech gem.
I tried LS with same gems(without bm because soul taker) and with static blows, but frenzy or double strike is more effective, also its half physical so our life leech from gear or blood rage, less effective.

Anyway i recomend to check some LS threads, my guide is more about ultimate defense and how survive hardest maps as melee)

yeah static blows would add nice DPS, Bloodrage too I believe, I think i can add bloodrage to my gems because of the enduring cry change (i used 2 gems).

I dont use frenzy because Lightning srike is my favorite skill (the sound is pretty epic) and makes me very comfortable vs reflect. Lightning strike + hatred + added fire, makes my dmg around 60% elemental and 40% physical while scaling on flat attack dmg.

I have the 2% life leech from the skill tree which gives me life leech over the phy + ele part of lightning strike. Even though i want life leech in my rings, I did not find any good lifesteal rings yet. with a Soultaker i will put in a lifesteal gem i am currently leveling. life on hit could also work vs packs.

TY for looking at my templar !!

Yeah blood rage looks perfect for you, like 12% leech from physical with your LS its like 6% leech with frenzy/double strike. Also it boost your DPS with frenzy charges. Just get enough chaos res and life regen.

Looking for hard bosses suggestions, i have no idea how kill shrine piety with -max and additional proj, lighting balls insane with that mods. Looking forward for new bosses in release.

Hi, thanks for sharing your build! I have a few questions, and hope I may learn a few things.

1. Why do you use frenzy instead of infernal blow? Won't you get frenzy charges from blood rage anyway?

2. When you fight a boss, do you swap out melee splash gem for a single target gem? Like Added fire? I have been doing this and it adds much DPS, but I use infernal blow, so I still get some splash for piety/vaal summons. What do you think?

3. What is the damage from shrine piety lightning? What is damage from shrine piety lightning with min max resist mod?

Thanks!

1.frenzy its highest physical dps skill, sorry i dont use blood rage just lvling it in gear, confused 2 people already, i should remove that. I use vulnerability and have always stable physical damage, hatred and added fire(for 6l) on top of that.
2.almost all boses have elemental resits so its only 25% of tooltip fire damage added.
also almost all bosses have summons.
3. Without additional lighting balls its very low damage from lighting form, only lighting warp on -max can hurt.

So what do you think of using Meginords? DPS boost, 10% life, and some cold res.

its like minus ~200 hp, nice damage boost(~1100 dps), but sick rustic sash with str should be better, anyway need test that.
