Frozen Sky is harmless now Vic, Obelisks on the other hand... Best to always carry Topaz and consider running PoL. I've found that with LgoH and Topaz up you can usually tank even the nastier ones. At least for the duration it takes to kite from the pack.

Hi

Im lvl 85 atm,with only 6k life. Im capped on res, not much more. and got 16,5k dps with a 5L.

Last i posted you said to try to get, AS on gloves and added Phys on rings etc. I've done that.
What should i do now?
I dont have the whole scion HP "Wheel" because i think it was better to go for Master of the arena and that part first. But its only 3 5% nodes i miss.

I thought about removing LGOH for FA? I got 12% life leech when Blood rage active.

If you feel liek youre safe enough without LGOH then yes you should swap it for faster attacks, try to do an area without lgoh, use added fire instead, if you feel like youre tanky enough then you can swap.

I suggest you save up the exalts and buy a 6link chest or sword

Aye i heard frozen sky got nerfed, i didnt know by how much though, when i heard about it i saw some very nasty deaths on youtube.

As obelisks go from waht ive seen yeah, a topaz flask is always good to have, but generally id run from them, ive seen a video of the #1 hardcore duelist, he went from like 8k life to 10 life almost instantly, they look very scary

If i were to save up for a 6L sword, i would need like 440dps+ and 6L. Thats 16 exa+
Thats damn expensive.

On the other hand, the chest, will be a nightmare to get capped on res

Well you have two options:

1. buy something other than a sword and go for the adequate passives, there is a 6l 420 pdps mace on bloodlines for 5 exalts, you could buy that weapon and use the mace nodes, the build will work exactly the same. Then i suggest you save up for a kaoms

2. buy a 6l chest then and grab diamond skin node and the nodes next to it for the extra resistances if necesarry

I would personally go for option 1, because youd be able to use kaoms heart after you solve the resistance problems on gear, you can also get diamond skin to wear it and some other resistance nodes.
With option one, you spent 5 exalts on that mace, which i think will give enough dps to do any maps, then you will have to upgrade some parts of your gear to get enough resistances and then save up for a kaoms which costs roughly 12 exalts on BL, but it will bring you to 9k life and youd be dressed up in pretty much optimal gear

Just tested. Did a Rare 71map with ele weakness. Did just fine.
But i noticed that a lvl8 added fire, gives allmost as much dmg as a lvl 16 FA.

What should i use

added fire always gives more dps than FA, FA is good because it works great with LGOH, since you want to go with just damage then you should use added fire

I just bought that mace :P

Should i then use added fire + FA, or go for the initial plan with LGOH + FA

Up to preference, for hardcore i would use LGOH + FA even though it deals less damage youll be extremely tanky

The build is very good. Was very good for me since I've just ripped to the Obelisks. Quite difficult to cap res since I couldn't buy any cheap res gears. Or perhaps I simply suck at hardcore :(

An easy way to cap resistances early on is to get diamond skin and the other resistance nodes at the marauder area and even buy a Goldrim leather cap

Thanks for your tips. It's just that I got careless since this build is very tank and steamroll content like nothing and then bam, bunches of Obelisk jumped in...

Anyway, your build is too much fun so I don't wanna give up now, but I'm just too lazy to re-roll (I can only play like 3 hours per day). Probably make a toon in Torment to play for a while until I feel like running HC again :(

Nice build, trying it out atm.

Btw how is the clear speed of this character in end game maps with 5 link? Tbh, not alot of players out there have 6 link. and a 530 pdps sword. Hell, there is like only 3 swords with 530 pdps.

With conc effect's decrease radius I assume you would have to cyclone through mobs 2~3 times to kill them if they are mid-large size packs, making the build's clear speed around 7~8mins per map? But ofcourse I could be wrong.

If you make a vid of doing 75+ maps or just some stats screenshot with a 5 link, 450~480 pdps sword, that would be great.
