[2.5] CoC Vortex Elementalist *Insane dps* 2-3 shot Guardians - Shaper down! [Video Inside]

Instant leech is your only sustain, the boot enchant/doryani's belt/atziri's promise/leech weapon craft/warlord' mark are your ways of getting it, choose whichever you like, multiple is recommended. And no, vinktar is useless for leech for this build, I dont really recommend wasting a flask slot for it.

Cwdt+IC/Grace/temp or enfeeble+blasphemy/stibnite are your options for mitigation.

If you dont have any of the above why would you even expect to survive?

noobdw,
Can you make few videos how you doing maps(shaper's guardians) with yr version of this build?

What should the critical strike chance for cyclone/shield charge be at? I did a run through dried lake with a diamond flask and was mostly satisfied, but I was wondering what it's at for people who actually have a complete build.

Edit: I also had Assassin's Mark on but I switched it to Warlord's for sustain and didn't notice much of a difference.

The first tasty checkpoint is ~65% crit with all power charges on. With this percent you can use a diamond flask to raise your effective crit to 85%+ and the assasin's mark would make it cap - 95%.
The next would be reaching 85% to drop the flask and 95% to drop the mark.

But ofc this build will become "Dried Lake - viable" at a much lower percent.

@OP

Hi, can you check my profile ' iDoll ' character.

I made an occulist version of it and my vortex dps tooltip is nowhere near yours, im hitting 18,316 (in hideout, no flask no charges)
Yours is 2x more than mine.

I am running herectic veil alomg with 4 curses. I have elemental weakness lvl11 on hit on gloves.

Can you help me please, im not sure if i should've gone elementalist for it to work. Trickster does the job fine, so i thought occulist could do the same.

Thank you!

Thanks. That run through dried lake was just me testing out the stuff I have so far, which isn't anything special.

Edit: Should also say that I still need to respec some points since I converted my first character to this build. Once all the points have been properly allocated and I have all the items I want, my character should be at least yellow map viable.

Never recorded a video, and I serve in the army so can play on some of the weekends (this one I'm on duty) so I'm afraid I'm not willing to spend the time I have figuering out how to record, sorry. I'm using my phone to view the thread :P

Just switched to cyclone so I can start farming guardians for the challenge, I can tell you how it went. Made a huge change to the character and some nice ideas to implement as well.

it's pity. Do you play with steam? if yes, may i add you as friend and watch your playing?

I put on all what need for this build and i'm feeling myself like a bullshit! don't enough es leech with flask and when vs me crowd of fast archers(need cannot be stunned) i am just stand and look like i am dying.

p/s have switched cyclone on charge shield and it's so much better! thanks.

To all of you who are having problems with es leech and survivability - try running warlords mark in blasphemy , it works wonders! :)
