Every time it appears someone knows how to fix?

For this particular build the issue is not the mouse button but rather the potions. Just make sure that you are pressing the potions buttons in order, 1 2 3 4 and you should never get this message. Do not press multiple potions buttons at the same time, this will get you kicked out.

Have been playing this build for some time now and I never haven kicked out yet.

God I want to play this, but the cheapest harvest i see atm is 17 ex. I could probably just manage to afford this if i gather all my currency into ex.

I have a pretty good pc so i would love lagging out my mates.

Currently at 6.6k Life with 49% Life nodes available in the next 10-12 Levels

I only have 1 Life jewel. I should be able to hit 8.5k Life by level 93 with better jewels.


That being said I think Scion is probably better than Duelist in the long run, and I think a +1 Curse Amulet helps wayyy more than a +1 Frenzy Charge one.

This is the endgame tree I'm going to use, and I'm currently at level 86

This is on standard so the character is actually missing 1 passive point from Cruel. Build is good - I think Ascendant does better because I'm not gimped by Duelist starting Area and I can use Carcass Jack for 6L, My HoI is pimped and I could use Hypothermia with Vortex ( I don't like Hypothermia though) - that being said, Inquisitor gives more crit chance (don't need ) - but the biggest things IMO are probably 12% Reduced Elemental Damage Taken, which is the biggest thing to one shot this build considering we already have permanent IC. 50% avoidance to Freeze/Shocks/Ignites is good for a build that has no immunity via flasking.

Because I use ranger start it'd be optimal getting EVA gear as I use Blind in my 6L and I have Enfeeble in my offhand in case I want to swap out a curse to be more tanky.

The con being 4 Off color Harvest

I also feel like my Inclusion of Frost Bomb is stronger than what you had in mind since it's a free -20% Cold resistance to bosses. I use Null and Void because I like Rampage for Momentum, especially with the damage buffs.

Great build OP, thank you so much for sharing :D

Had lots of fun fitting it to the gear I had on std, I did rip a 30% more ele helm from ESC but find using HOI in my Carcass Jack fits my play style better.



Just need to find a nice pair of opal rings and I think I'm done with the tinkering :D

When i saw that video, i told myself I MUST make one in this league. Rerolled a new toon. I Noticed alot of dced from spamming to fast..but that's all solved just moving my WiFi router. The few things i learned for this build:

- fast clear omg even on red maps >T13
- Carcass jack > kaom's (for now)
- Frost bomb is great when paired with CWDT, great againts regen mobs, extra -20 cold res is a plus.
- Vaal detonate, a clearly underrated gem, makes mob clearing in dungeons extremely fun.
- Gear is cheap (except harvest), expect to pay premium to min-max cold damage on jewelry.
- no status ailments map mods break this build.

overall

8/10, 110% fun factor.

Sorry to dissapoint you, but it really doesn't lag much. It does however, provide absurd visual aids for you and your friends. (use a 6L with vortex + MTX's for superior visual aids.

Yeah, Carcass is king for map-clearing, but the survivability from having 10k life with MoM + Fortify is unmatched against bosses.

My jeweles would like to argue otherwise (although I guess you could consider those jewellery?) :D

Frostbite or MoM? (with Frostbite low free mana pool - 200)
idk Frostbite really good for penetrate 38 cold

Guys I just started playing this build less than an hour ago and I am having trouble nailing enough dps to take out bosses. I read a few posts back that I should be pressing my flasks in order to avoid disconnects and I'm about to implement that right now.

What should be giving me the burst dps to take out bosses?

here's my build


p.s I'm only lvl 75 atm

I don't have the level to put on those opal rings yet.

Dropped my Headhunter for a 18% flask reduction ... seems to be helping.

I still can't get that awesome dps you guys are doing in my boss fights though.
