Uber Atziri as a Melee
" I actually thought of you while I was getting the setup ready <3 Going to try it without the melee splash gem to see if I can get her down pure single target. (I think I can, but will refrain from claiming such until I have video proof of it) I realise that the vast majority of players would still need aoe to down her (and the regular version) but I like that in principle a high enough single target dps can get her down without aoe. (which is the idea of going single target pure after all - high concentrated dps) +1 Shavs Project -----> /1075009

I appreciate the sentiment <.o, however if your going for that, no skills with innate AOE and no movement skills like flicker strike that bypass AOE requirements due to movement factor.
Just to add to the limitations and provide a challenge :). I still consider atziri a design fallacy because of the beneficial state AOE players are in in the entire content. Atziri being the cherry on-top for them. While single target melee players are crying in a little corner. Peace, -Boem- and good luck on the atziri fight. It will be a test of endurance i am sure <.o Freedom is not worth having if it does not include the freedom to make mistakes

" Man congratz,nice!But i am pretty sure that alot of people can kill uber atziri herself as melee.What i d like to see is to clear the whole aluring abyss with a melee skill... https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/417287 - Poutsos Flicker Nuke Shadow

" I agree - challenge accepted. I fear it may devolve into a neverending self cast IC as melee requires you to put yourself right into harms way, but I'll experiment with it tomorrow. @Boem - my upload speed here in Canada (the ghetto of the internet) doesn't allow me to stream PoE atm. I DO stream slower stuff (Hearthstone, Solforge, etc) and am in fact sponsored, anybody interested can follow me at http://www.twitch.tv/tmmjakealmighty. PoE is going to be limited to youtube content for now though until I can figure out a way around the crap upload I get. +1 Shavs Project -----> /1075009

Great job, but that still isn't proof of a life based melee killing Uber Atziri using auras that life players have (which means 2 or 3 auras).
Everyone knows low-life advantages in this game, and everyone knows ranged advantages in this game. We are currently in an iteration of POE where those types of build dominate (relative to life melee). Everyone has their turn. For Uber itself, the vids don't lie (that low-life/ranged is where it is at): 90%+ are ranged and ES based, almost always low-life, crit, and tons of auras. My thread would have read "Uber Atziri as a life-based melee", but I thought that was obvious... Shrug. Last edited by Marmeduke#0880 on Jun 29, 2014, 10:16:30 AM

Grats man, that's nice. But could you please post FULL run? My concern was mostly that melee would struggle with the mobs and the trio bosses. Or could you at least comment on how it went going as melee from start -> end?
But still, very nice. EDIT: Also are you using Forbidden Taste, or is that just skin for Ruby/Topaz flasks? Just curious! Last edited by Ceryneian#3541 on Jun 29, 2014, 10:24:03 AM

" yup, this is true, and a good respite from the riduclous badposting of the last few pages. i mean shit, give me a high pdps crit sceptre and i'll clear the uber map with fucking glacial hammer. shavs + coe is basically a key combo to scale your dps high enough to kill everything (as well as you get your resists crazy high). there are a few other ways to scale it up, but none are nearly as effective. it's a horribly designed map, with a broken loot table. i have no idea how any of this shit made it past QA. (does GGG even have QA?) Last edited by Veruski#5480 on Jun 29, 2014, 10:21:24 AM
