1.1 Updated [HC/Inv] EB/MoM/AA SuperTank Spectral Throw (Works with Mjölner!!Tested!)

i think the cwdt nerf will affect this a little bit. the amount of armor you get from high lvl molten shell is necessary. but we will see how this all plays out.

i love this build!! i took a merc vaal smash!! on my highlights on twitch

Well all things considered my happy medium with upcoming patch is
Cast when damage taken level 8
Molten Shell level 11
Enduring Cry level 9
Curse of your choice not surpassing req 45 level (Enfeeble getting a heavy nerf)

Yeah molten shell is getting the biggest nerf, enduring and totem of your choice still perfectly viable with a lvl5 or so CwDT imo.

Read and reread patch notes and didn't see where any changes were being made to molten

ok so with cwdt (lvl1) molten (lvl 7) ec (lvl 5) temp chain (lvl5) i have noticed NO DIFFERENCE other than a loss of 800 or so armor.. so this "nerf" is a LOLZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ

all the ppl bitching about it on the forums are just crying for attention. it was a good fix to a very op gem. now it is somewhat sill op but toned down for basically walking around killing everything and never self casting anything.

I realised that you only grab EB/MoM late in the game like almost level 80++

So the tankiness of this build will only arrive very much later in the game when both these keynodes are specced and at the expense of damage output almost throughout the entire levels.

I saw your video surviving Vaal smash and I thought that the DPS was a tad weak.


I've actually been following your guide on my previous toon (rip 52 @ CruelPiety) and just re-rolled. Presently still contemplating whether to continue following this "tanky" build or to hop over to something that does more damage instead.



Any insights to the above and do you recommend to spec EB/MoM earlier in the game?

nice build

Most definitely, it was super duper OP lol.

I'm curious, what's the point of even having a level 7 Molten Shell? It seems to give negligible damage and armor at such a low level.

Maybe swapping it out for another skill would be better?

And how does that make molten "nerfed" its exactly the same as it was before the patch,in that molten itself has not been touched,dont need to keep up Im already ahead ;)

Where is your Scion btw :)

Alright... Molten Shell is one of the skill that suffered the most from CwDT's nerf.

My scion is 71 in nemesis thanks for asking.

I notice very little difference,not enough to say its suffering by any means,I have large enough mana pool and fast enough mana regen to maintain two auras and run arctic when needed.I would consider it more of a balance than a nerf. I'm still running 72 maps comfortably at a current level 78.I started maps at around 67,duoing with a ranger friend and now perfectly capable of soloing when hes not around.

I tested level 8 codt and level 1,level 1 codt and level 7 molten is still more than enough,hasnt changed my playstle at all

I asked where your Scion was in thinking maybe it was in HC and then maybe would have a problematic difference maybe.
