i dont see how this build is "tanky" by every means

sure u have CoD with MoM and also the long immortal call

but that is not going to save you from an instakill from many unevadable dmg spikes from invasion/corrupted area bosses (ie. Cintiq ek spider, bear traps, RT exiles/bosses)
yea u can beat atziri but any any of the above will kill u before u reach there.

also other than hp u did not take a single armour/ev node

not entirely tanky and invasion viable unless changes are made. but nevertheless good for ambush/sc at least

i am not having any problems with physical damage with my setup. If you had listed elemental damage it would be understandable to say i wasnt tanky enough but physical damage is a joke to me. i can bathe in evangelist attacks and almost mindlessly jump into the frey in poorjoy's asylum map.


also: why would i want to take armour or evasion nodes? to have very low mitigation that does absolutely nothing against said damage spikes?

i am really open to criticism but this post is really contradicting itself and untrue in what it says.

Hi SVD,

Thanks for the video – I was really glad to see that because I have a very similar build and I failed on my last Atziri attempt.

I have chosen to pick up a lot of aura notes and AA, so currently running a level 25 AA and all 3 purities (fire, ice and lightning) for a total of 84 res all and with the which flask notes 97%, but otherwise the build is the same.

At the moment I can squeeze out around 5300 life and above stats. Do you think the last 500 life vs. your build is worth sacrificing AA and the auras? Also running grace which gives me a total of 53% evation (level 23 – in alpha’s howl).

Iam a standard noob, but would like to discuss the build further with you in game.

Will be on later this PM (in SEA)

hey there,

to be honest: i have no idea.

keep in mind though, i have 6400 life total in the atziri encounter thanks to mind over matter.

there were times when i wished to have more life so i skilled more life.
there were times when i wanted more resists but i didnt skill auras.
maybe auras are the way to go.
Grace definetely sounds awesome. Evasion is so much better than armor when you have immortal call running all the time.

Against vaal culling strike wins.
Against 3 bosses immortal call does it all.
Against Atziri it's about not getting hit and fast recovery of life and mana when getting hit. I dropped my arctic armour (only had level 18-20) because i felt it didnt help me when i needed help the most (big hits). it is pretty good against reflect and in -max res maps though. there i swap it in sometimes.

Very nice! Congrats! :D Any chance we could get a screen shot of your character tabs? Offense and defense?

still don't really see the purpose of why you want to see it (as i said, just get as much as you can get of everything defensive wise, get a bit of damage offensively, may stats by now are 800 hp higher and my damage is 50% higher on screen (PLUS elemental equilibrium that i didnt have back at the beginning) than when i first killed atziri) but here you go:

Why not? Gives me a target to work towards :) Thanks!

Very good build, and plenty tanky. I assume you virtually never get stunned with HP near 6k?

wow good stuff, can't wait to try this out!

At lvl 15 Flameblast my damage is about 16k on max charge - not bad!
2-3 charges are enough to clear trash.

I did spec 3*10% ele damage in the shadow area + 4 nodes from 2nd Fire cluster in Witch area though.

About stuns - this build doesn't really get stunned because most enemies don't last long enough to get into melee )
Plus if you constantly move, placing 1-3 charge Flameblasts as needed, and don't stand in one place like some Incinerate guy, you shouldn't get hit much anyway.

How about using a carcass jack instead of cloak of defiance?

Will most definetely work but you should try the difference yourself. either do a blood magic map or reserve all your mana and see how much more hp you will lose without cloak.

it's very easy to undervalue the defense even with just 600 remaining mana at 300 regen/s.

I'd say that basically all the good chests will work with this build.

You can go Kaom's if you really want to (losing 6 sockets is pretty rough though).

You can go Lightning Coil, the chest is another "broken" item. Will weaken your immortal call setup but dramatically increase your hp pool against physical damage.

You can go carcass jack if you want a great offense and skip the hardest of the hardest of content (i like to have as much hp as possible so i go for cloak).


@araycan: you are 100% right :). i am getting hit all the time though because i cant help it and just lightning warp into any opponent :(.
I guess i already lost my whole level 93 to death penalty, if not more.
I mean, who could have expected that one would die once against double boss + fleet + extradamage palace dominus?

hey what shield u use for a normal map run to farm/Level?



is just found this do u think ist better then doryanis ? or is it Dory cause the lifeleech? ;)
