you cant just skip it - you need to travel through somewhere lol. and yes its pretty useful, the evasion is good, 8 all res helps alot more than you might thing, because this build is tight with resistances.


Ah, sorry. I think I mixed up the leveling tree from the other thread (where it's connected through Will of Blades) with the final tree here. Totally my bad. Thanks for replying though ^^
So, excuse the potentially stupid/obvious question..but:

This build has a lot of active skills and after just getting to map level, it seems to be one too many? Where do you fit all the active skills? Are there situations where one isnt used (ex: high map X skill not used for Y skill, etc).

Active skills:
BA
LA
Frenzy
Barrage
Decoy Totem
Blood Rage
Summon Ice Golem

That takes up 7/8 active skill slots with walking being bound to left click.

In what situation is Vaal Haste used? Something like Atziri bosses I'm guessing in substitution for Blood Rage?

Anyway, this build is fucking AMAZING so props to the OP for the refinement/time spent creating this and sharing with us all. I haven't cleared content as fast as I have with this build so early into the game. Pretty much once I put on my death's opus I was killing story bosses in <3 seconds and the low maps are melting within 1 min.

Can't wait to delve deep into high-end maps and uber atziri/etc. Haven't played since Talisman so this entire process has been a blast, especially with this great build.

Cheers.

Hey, need next advice:
since last time I have done merc lab, and got max resis without purity aura and better passiv tree. Build is a lot of fun. Most fun, strong, and potential build I played in my 4 or 5 leagues I played in the old days (stoped playing with the introduction of the crafters) :D


Have 10chaos budget, what could/should I upgrade?

Ice Golem comes off the bar after you cast it. Leaving room for Vaal Haste

I have
Blink Arrow
LA
BA
Decoy
Frenzy
Blood Rage
Vaal Haste

I also forgo the golem because I absolutely hate them, they die to much and aggravate me.



Gear is pretty much done at this point been scoping out to get a new Amulet but finding one at a decent price is going to be difficult.

Never mind, I found my answer a few pages back.

Really enjoying the build, it was rough when I first hit dried lakes because my gear was severely lacking, but now im in T9-10 maps and going super fast.

Could somebody here help me out?

I've got pretty much everything, 20/20 gems, reach, 6L queen, dying sun, +1 arrow drillneck. (I run blasphemy vuln also).

The only thing I dont have is a +1/2 or 40% barrage enchant. I don't have much currency left and I hate running labs. Is the enchant absolutely necessary to do shaper?

Wouldn't say its necessary for shaper but I haven't attempted him yet so not 100% sure. Its a huge boost in damage though, when I got my +2 proj my single target dmg skyrocketed and bosses were dropping like flies. I'd say you should try shaper without it cause if you have everything else perf except for the +2 enchant I reckon you'd be fine still. GL
This guide is not viable in 2.5. End of story!

I spent a LOT of currency gearing it up, got it to lvl 83, it literally can't kill any T13 map end boss without Reach (not paying 5 exalts for one item)

Anyone who still hasn't decided if they want to go with it - DONT. Waste of currency and time.

I haven't done alot of mapping, but I was able to kill T14boss eazily with shitty mod and okayish gear. (No +1drill neck, no +2 barrage, no curse, no dying sun with opus)

If you have difficulty in the build, read first post thoroughly. There is a checklist made by a user which is really good.
Hey guys I've tried out this build and i'm starting to struggle now I've hit level 79, I managed to kill atziri a few times but cant run the breach bosses as yellow mobs take way to long to die and i run out of time, what should i be looking to upgrade to making map's/breaches easier



Thanks!
