[2.4] The Dy'Ness Tank

Hi Dyness. Gotta say I've played this build almost to level 90 now. I like it, it's definitely survivability to the extreme. However, I am getting a bit sick of the total lack of damage :( It makes group play basically non-existent as well.

Wondering how you'd feel about an incinerate based version of this:

Basically using the same gear (without shav ring but tbh i can't afford it anyway lol).

I ditched the regen, picked up some more damage nodes and vaal pact/ghost reaver. I guess I'd ditch the life regen aura for something else. Not sure if I'd need clarity with incinerate or not. I finally got a 6linked armor, too!



Thinking incin, spell echo, fire pen, faster casting, life leech, and an empower or something. I also thought about maybe investing in some of the -casting cost amulet/rings and using that helm that deals damage to me to proc the CWDT stuff a lot more too.

I'm still fairly new to the game so maybe this is an AWFUL idea looking for some input from someone who knows a lot more than I do, haha. I probably wont be able to afk in maps anymore and come back to a mysterious pile of loot but hopefully will get a bit more enjoyment out of the increased damage.

Greetings!

Nice 6L!

I never got into Incinerate myself. I looked over the tree you linked and there was no regeneration. Pi2rEpsilon has taken my idea and built his own variation: Scionic Flametank (CI-ZO 13%+ ES regen, Incinerate, newbie-friendly) http://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/1271604. It might be what you are looking for and he has posted he skill tree through various stages of leveling up. He says he has 38.7K stage 4 damage with it. It may be the best place to start for building out more damage while maintaining a tankish style build.

If a high damage incinerate build is more of what you are looking for, please check out: https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/821224. There are 11 Incinerate builds posted, which would help you get the most out of it while being able to survive.

Best of luck!

GG. The only character I can't kill in the GM map. Just curious, what type of build can kill you in pvp?

Was asked to kill Atziri for a friend tonight. Here is the video link.

She almost got me as I was taking a drink. I was dropped to 1319 ES at one point off of a double flameblast. She was half dead when I took the portal down, but it was the last portal... so I almost screwed the pooch! Thankfully, I was tanky enough to withstand it.

Enjoy!

hey, Dyness, do you think this build is achievable in the new league which only last for 5 weeks??

achievable as in, able to run high level maps in a short time??

Greetings!

This build is achievable. Maybe not to the degree I have taken it, but even with self found gear you should be able to reach a fairly solid regeneration rate. Past that, its all about how much fun you want to have.

200-300 Regen, the increase in your survivability is noticeable.
800-1000 Most mobs should have some issues killing you.
1400-2000 Most bosses should have issues killing you.
2000-3000 I think I went a tad overboard.
3000-4000 I was seeing how far I could take it.

I was given these links tonight from a friend. Thank you.

His max res is low so curse him? oO Burn him as he is CI? Does that even matters when he regens through the ZO node? ES: 17,054 Armor: 4645 Regen: 3132.3 Chaos: 100% Fire: 75% (206%) Cold: 75% (191%) Light: 75% (263%) Anyway here are his current stats in grandmaster he gave to me when I asked him, I hope he doesn't minds that I share it here, since he has a post about his char on forums anyway.

Puncture trap with a decent bow 2shots dyness, if is not dead right away from the direct damage, the bleed completely counters the regen.

That goes for every grandmaster really, puncture trap is a reliable way of clearing the map if you dont have a EA character.

I failed my first Hall of Grandmasters because of you..
I was almost sure you had an aegis aurora but now that I read 3K ES reg/sec I understand why I was able to get you to 40% of your ES..
Reworking my build to one-shot you before you can even breath :)

Hi Dyness, have you changed your gloves, boots and weapon?

I can't see "verified" under your gloves/boots/ecc.. in "first gear" section, on first page.
