So, how it compares to LL + EW setup in your opinion?

Btw: Also try WM + CD.

Well, mapping is almost the same in both version except with Hexproof mobs (that´s why i finally use 2x vaal discipline) but VS Bosses feels great, ofc, still to test against hard bosses with hard mods and see if WM is enough.

I guess not enough leech back ....

Sulphur Wastes +4 add. projectiles + EW

Its looking better than I expected to be honest.

I've run some numbers on this matter. To calculate dps vs resistance and leech at that time. This is with my gear and gems so you may have a better numbers across the board:


Setup 1: 20/20 EW + 20/20 BP + LL:

vs 0% 144.5 k DPS | 2890 ES leech /s
vs 40% 98.8 k DPS | 1976 ES leech /s
vs 120% 36.1 k DPS | 722 ES leech /s


Setup 2: WM + 20/20 BP + 20/4 ENH + CD:

vs 0% 164.6 k DPS | 3292 ES leech /s
vs 40% 98.8 k DPS | 1423 ES leech /s
vs 120% 41.2 k DPS | 593 ES leech /s


Setup 3: WM + 20/20 BP + 20/4 ENH + LPen:

vs 0% 141.1 k DPS | 2822 ES leech /s
vs 40% 95.4 k DPS | 1374 ES leech /s
vs 120% 55.4 k DPS | 798 ES leech /s


0% resistance target are trash mobs (no curse penalty) while 40% and 120% are map Boss (so with 60% curse penalty).

As you can see LPen setup is better for maps with +80% ele resistance mods. But nothing really else. Its not worse vs 0% but it is worse vs 40% which is the most common scenario (map boss without map ele resistance mods).

CD is better vs just trash mobs which is not needed.


So it seems that original setup - setup number 1 is overall best.

Ty for stats, as i see, cannot be frozen is mandatory, sometimes you are out of flasks, sometimes you forget pop up your flask...so next step is using an Alpha´s and use 2x curse: EW + Enfeeble and put life leech gem back in Mjölner, also, you have Haste where my build feels "weak". Yes, you lose 1K ES but..with Enfeeble maybe can work. BTW, i need a lv21 purity of ice :|

Also, if i put Enhance with BP only 88 life left, it´s..low. (min. should be about +110 life left)

So yes, your 1º set-up is mandatory, then, we can test Alpha´s and dual curse^^

Yeah, as I told redix27 yesterday in-game I've run some numbers regarding Aegis Aurora setup. And TBH the more I review them the more I feel it is unworthy.

Capped block/spell block with 800+ ES on each block sounds cool... BUT with Aegis theres no way anyone will reach more than 6.2k ES. And this is LOW, to low to tank some of big hits if they bypass the block (and they will). So I dunno, I dunno...

Now regarding Alphas setup it looks intresting as far as someone has acces to 6l Shavs and 2x lvl 4 Enlighten (as I wrote before). Other than that it is also unworthy...

Trying to re-chrom my Shavs for getting 3G and 3B... got 2R-2B-2G and out of chroms, so playing with Alpha´s and Curse on Hit+EW, also room for HoT that adds 0.695K dpu discharge. (9 auras build)

dpu discharge with HoT up 5/5



ES 6.1K only (would be 6.3K if i could craft my ring with about 18-20% inc. max. ES)

ES 6.4K now that i put my lv21 Discipline in Alpha´s helmet.


Downsides
**********
- No Culling Strike
- -25% chaos res
- Lose about 1.7K ES (now only 1.4K ES)
- Not Purity of Ice lv21 (-2% max cold res)
- Not capped fire/lightning res with EW mod on map (need to pop up my flasks)

Upsides
*********
- More dpu discharge
- Cannot be Frozen
- 5.01 aps Haste

T13 Waterways Boss fight (degen ground)

Vid



T13 Sulphur Wastes REVENGE now with Elemental Weakness and -1.7K ES and not lv21 PoI

Vid



Some notes: this fight would be easy with dual curse and Enfeeble on BP + lv21 PoI, Haste it´s mandatory^^

So alphas setup is better in your opinion?

Yes but with dual curse : BP + EW + ENFEEBLE because you lose too much ES

And VS bosses, to have +5aps really works (my haste it´s only lv17 and i have 5.01aps)

Finally got it, now dual curse :-)

So yes, this build is the best Mjölner atm BUT, you need Lv97 for taking x2 Witch ES nodes and +1ED/+1PC

And that´s the hard way..i´m 2% exp at lv93, each T13 gives you about 1% exp...so playing alone it´s not viable (Standard League). Any ideas about how we can level up to lv97?

Ive been doing the alphas setup the last few days and Im liking it a lot. The enfeeble makes me feel much tankier and the haste was a nice damage increase and QoL increase with the move speed. The no freeze is extremely good. You only need 1 lvl 4 enlighten though if you use my setup (on page 9 or 10). Youre right about it requiring more to get into, you need lvl 92-94 to get to the point where you feel safest, and 6l shavs and pretty good gear. Without those things I wouldnt do it.

Yes that´s true IMO lv97 would be optimal! but hard to get playing solo :|

Btw @Alturas, i put on shield CWDT + IC + VAAL DISCIPLINE and for mapping i remove GMP and put LS, for bosses i remove LS and put GMP.
