[2.1] Ethereal Knives MF Build. Effectively >90k DPS, >20k EHP, 300 IIR, 43 IIQ, Triple Blasphemy

Just managed to 6l my lorica... with 67 fuses :p



Still need item quantity gem tho :(

I've finally had time to post a massive update to the build. I'm currently running at 64k dps while using life leech again. By swapping out IIQ for Added Fire Damage, I can now push my dps to 80k. And there is still a little room for improvement.

@Xiarrah:

Regarding jewels:

Cobalt jewels are by far the most useful and easiest to roll.

For maximal damage, I recommend the following:

[Prefix]

Two of those: Spell Damage While Holding a Shield (up to 16%), Cast Speed While Holding a Shield (up to 5%), Physical Damage (up to 16%)

[Suffix]

Two of those: Projectile Damage (up to 12%), Spell Damage (up to 12%), Cast Speed (up to 4%), Attack and Cast Speed (up to 4%), Increased Damage (up to 10%).


Other useful (non-offensive) stats are

[Prefix]

Mana Regeneration Rate (up to 15%), Increased Mana (up to 8%), Energy Shield (up to 8%)

[Suffix]

Reduced Mana Cost of Skills (up to 5%), Projectile Speed (up to 8%), various resistance mods, various +stats mods.

Hope this helps! I'll include this list in the guide.

having a blast with this build, its not comparable to a poison arrow MF but its fun as hell :D Atm im sitting at 95% quantity and 253% rarity, 48k dps on my EK and overcapped resis with about 7,5k ES not that bad i would say.
Hope it gets buffed with the next changes coz compared to other mf builds like totems or poison arrow its quite a bit weaker, but fun :)
Lets see what the changes will bring ^^

Today EK will be buffed so we will have even more dps unless tree will nerf the build. I hope the tree will be updated fast.

Will you update this build due to 2.1 update?

Hey, I'll try to post an update next week at the latest. The build got buffed quite a bit, but I'm still trying to figure out the best setup for Blasphemy etc.

Atziri should now be a piece of cake. I'll tackle her once I've reached level 94 (at 95% currently).

Nice, ill be waiting for the tree update :D

want to use this MF again <3 it was really fun and usefull befor they reset the tree >.>

It's been a week, but hey, no pressure :D

I have been doing this thing in 2.0 as well and it works quite well. I'd like to go crit with it in 2.2.

Very nice to see that you are continuing to work on this build. I enjoyed this MF very much!
