[2.1 Ghazzy - Summoner Guides] High Budget Builds

Sadly, it does not =/

Hi Ghazzy. I've always been curious, how does one make a 3L/3L chest piece? Is there a way to guarantee such a result using Vorici? Or do you just throw fusings at a 6 socket until it happens? If the latter, is it a common occurance or extremely rare (or somewhere in the middle)? Thanks for the awesome build.

I can help you with this question. It's somewhere in the middle. For a 6s, only 5L and 6L are rare and extremely rare respectively. It's actually easy to land 3-3 and 4-2 but RNG is a bitch so you can expect 5-20 fusings to get it right. Of course, if you "accidently" 5L it, just sell for profit!

Thanks. What are your opinions on Sidhebreath? It seems to have the main stats we need (mana regen, minion damage and minion movement speed). It it really worth buffing ourselves using a rare over it?

Good for leveling but you can always find a good rare ammy with life, res, mana regen, cast speed and +dex (since lv20 Haste/Vaal Haste need a whooping 156 dex). Sid can boost your damage considerably in early levels, when you have 4L so that you can focus more on defense. In end game, however, SRS is strong enough without 15% speed increase and 15% dmg increase (very little when you got already ~100% increased minion damage by that time). The speed increase is the most valuable mod in Sid, but with quality gem, haste, vaal haste and some passive nodes, you're good enough.

In short, Sid is only a small boost compared to the defense and utility a good rare ammy can give you. Even if you play softcore and don't care about ripping, an ammy with good cast speed is what you want to considerably boost SRS dps.

Thank you, you've been very helpful. Sorry for the tons of noob questions, but just starting the build and loving it so far.

Thank you @wiwigvn for responding in my absence.
V.Haste, Hatred, Haste requires 153 dexterity would be my only correction! :)

I have considered Sidhebreath (vaal orbed with even more minion dmg) to be a suited option for the build, however this would require even higher dexterity on the other gear pieces which means you'd lose A LOT of effective HP for the High Budget Low Life build.
However, for the HP version, if you can manage to solve the dexterity from your other gear pieces without causing problems on the use of Haste, Hatred, V.Haste then i believe Sidhebreath would be an excellent choice.

Seeing as i will not be crafting BiS SRS gear for the HP version (almost done with all the pieces for the HB LL version). I havnt done the exact calculations. But then again, logically with the lack of other ways of improving the dmg from our minions the Sidhebreath is a great addition if it is managable.

How do you deal with physical damage in this build?

personally I've run with a CWDT setup, and I also run with zombies, meaning few things reach me. at 5k+ hp and MoM getting hit with a granite flask aren't the end of the world.

The build is a glasscannon, that includes the more resilient version with HP. However, you can take a few hits before dropping dead like I usually do in hardcore cause i suck. :)

Spell Totem + Skellies = Use this instead of Arc (for EE) for increased safety, I use this when playing in Hardcore. Having a Rumis or even just a Granite Flask helps you take less or even no dmg at all.


Ultimately the build will kill things before they reach you, in general. And if they don't and its risky get spell totem skellies to make it safer.
