[2.4] The real "Master Herbalist" - BV Poison Pathfinder (Bloodmagic, +60% Dodge, +50% Spell Dodge)
|
gear
necessary: - Hyrri's ire chest gives dodge and spell dodge (and nice evasion) - Blood Dance Boots give more damage and life regeneration per frenzy charge. - a quartz flask is our best defense. adding more dodge and spell dodge (that are increased by PTH ascendancy) optional: - divinarius is NOT a good min-max choice, I only have it for the increased AoE and spell damage. a good rare wand or dagger will do much more damage. - for late game, get a witchfire brew flask if you can afford it. scales insanely with our poison damage
screenshots offense & defense
the poison damage doesn't show up, so the offense tooltip is pretty useless:

Deliver it with Bladevortex Defense is 5k life, 500HP regen/s, 60% dodge, 50% spell dodge (actually higher, because of the "increased effects of flasks" nodes pathfinder gets, but I'm too lazy to do the math) and 39% chance to evade (+ some block if you use a shield) from lvl80 on this is my go-to build if any of my charters struggled with a boss or map mod. just get the BV stacks up, hit the flasks and face tank (face dodge) everything. on bosses with high life pools and different phases (core malachai), the high life regeneration makes it safe pros: + easy gameplay (1 skill + have a flask up) + cheap to gear (hyrris 4-linked is sufficient till yellow maps + blood dance boots) + safe + poison too stronk, send halp, pls cons: - boring. so boring I never even optimized it (74% cold res :p ) or leveled the character to 90 - poison and damage over time is always slower then a crit-BV in map clearing (but a lot cheaper and safer, obviously) Last edited by PopeJo#5880 on Nov 15, 2016, 2:55:40 PM Last bumped on Nov 14, 2016, 12:36:46 PM
