(3.3) [Chieftain] Thermomix The second, WIP updating

We stack strength, life, and regen for RF.
Get Oak, too good to pass up.

57% fire pen, 9k life, 1700ish life regen, over capped resists(Capped at ele weakness maps), 15k armour

Tree, jewels inside

The videos are from 2.6 but are still valid, not much changed. Sorry for the mute on some :/

Twin colosseum with double curse 68% hp(Unfortunately muted)

Overgrown ruin hard bosses with -9max 26% monster damage, Fleeting 102%extra fire

Fast Atziri run

Colosseum, Enfeeble 48% monster life

Volcano, Ele weaknes, Enfeeble, 60% Less regen, Fleeting, 100% Extra cold and fire damage

Fast t15 underground river

In general we will only need 159 intellect for lv21 spells, and 70 dexterity for lv21 stone golem.



It will be sad if this helmet goes legacy. It provides a huge amount of armour as it converts every single fire resist we have over cap to % armour. The physical to fire conversion is a nice bonus making us rather safe against physical damage with maximum endurance charges.
I'm using a low level cast when damage taken here, with greater multiple projectiles, ice spear and tempest shield. While tempest shield provides some additional block chance the sole purpose of these spells is to trigger Elemental Overload which it does with great success.


Our Bread and butter item, it provides a lot of strength some cast speed, and damage based on strength. As it is general damage, it is double dipping with burn as well.
I've used to use a scorching ray totam here, but when it mattered it was useless as it could not stay alive. Now im using a traditional Molten shell, CWDt, Lifeleech setup, netting me over 45k AVG damage on a single cast resulting in huge burst of leech when we take excessive amounts of damage.


Self explanatory, it helps us run righteous fire with the added maximum fire resist. Used to run RF CONCEFF and Ele focus in it, but since 3.0 i rather go with my Flammability, Flame dash, Faster casting combo as i would like to preserve a 4L for RF.
Against certain bosses, or in maps that we are facing higher than average nonelemental damage, A shield like this can be superior to RotP as it provides us with an additional 8k armour, some damage, and 500 life with the universal reduced damage over time taken.


Absolute best in slot for the build, fire penetration, fire resist, %life, %strength and even a unique effect that debuffs enemies that hit us(They are slowed and take increased fire damage). Will be most likely legacy along with our helmet, will be hard to find a proper replacement, but it will be probably a high str/life amulet with fire damage.


Our chest piece, nothing spectacular, we want armour, as much life as possible and strength. 6Link is not necessary but it is highly recommended, and with how the prices are nowadays you can afford one for 15-20c, try to prioritize this over amulet. Our links are Flameblast, Cast While Channelling, Firestorm, Fire penetration, Iron will and Increased aoe. In a 5link i would drop fire penetration as the other two gems are providing a lot more. Against bosses we can(if needed) switch out our increased area of effect gem to concentrated effect from our Righteous fire in the shield slot.


Boots are the same as chest, we want as much movespeed/life/str as possible, and resists to cap us, the more the better. I'm using my Righteous fire here instead, as the Burning damage, Elemental focus, Increased AOE setup provides amazing clearspeed against white packs with the recent buff to the spells base radius.


Same as boots except we don't need movespeed. We have a Max level CwDT here linked to Enfeeble, Arctic breath and Stone golem
I prefer stone golem over anything else as it taunts frequently enough to provide a rather consistent 10% damage reduction, distraction and not to forget the 100 life regeneration it gives. Enfeeble and arctic breath helps us survive in situations where things would get dire real quick.

Again, nothing special, try to go for max life and max strength the rest can be whatever that fits your need, fire damage, stats, or resists.

This is where we use our only aura, Purity of fire. If you can afford try to get a lv21 one as the ring pushes it up to lv23 where it provides 5% maximum fire resistance instead of 4.

In our belt we want to have 80+ strength, 90+ life, some armour, the higher the better. If we could cap our resistance with the rest of our gear try to get chaos resist and some flask modes, even life recovery is good.

We have 6 jewel sockets, get 7% on each with resist/attribute if needed to cap yourself. Area damage/Firedamage/Damage or perhaps cast speed on top. I myself struggled finding decent ones as the market is very small for this kind of jewels.


My current ones, actively looking for upgrades.

Flasks

With cold breaches being as annoying as they can get, i choose to put my freeze removal on the ruby flask. We can have almost permanent uptime on it, bringing us up to 95% fire resist, while maintaining freeze and chill immunity. Thanks to this even with righteous fire we will have more than 13% hp regen per second, increasing our survivability even further, essentially working as a life flask with extra benefits.

We also need a bleed removal flask, experimenting with my instant one as it refills considerably fast with several uses, but i found it troublesome against rigwald who can apply new bleeds faster than we can refill our flask, will be updating later if anything has changed.

Our third flask is an eternal flask with dousing affix, not only it recovers a huge amount of life its main purpose is to disable righteous fire, giving us that extra boost in regeneration if needed.

A quicksilver of adrenaline flask is also used, as flamedash is insufficient for travelling at long distances, will try to use a different movement skill in the future, will be updated if anything changes.

I found a basalt flask almost mandatory as it synergises well with our armour and endurance charges, making almost any physical damage neglectable. Based on content it could be switched to topaz/amethyst/sapphire flask if necessary.

Farming t15 maps, sadly no fragment has dropped as of yet.

Atziri is ridiculously easy, failed at über once, was naive, thought i can do it without saffel/topaz flask. Haven't done it ever before so that may also be a factor.Though i believe with little adjustment the build could easily do it.

Did all four labs at lv66, was ridiculously easy as i can just disable RF and walk trough traps. The build can also handle Izaro without doing any of the challenges on each stage, making for a good lab runner.

Did all 5 breaches, Chayula was insanely hard for me, got to the portal with 1sec left, the boss itself was relatively easy, deactivated RF, the sustain really helped here a lot.

Currently working on unlocking the remainder of atlas and hoping for guardian fragment drops.

As i hardly pop up a totem to every mob, i changed it to CwDT setup for Molten shell as it greatly benefit from iron will. good AoE damage and life leech burst.



In my Shield i use CwDT + Immortal cry setup, good survivability for burst damage. but i have to pop enduring cry regularly to get endu charges.



Here i use regular Helmet, i think 9k armor is enough. and health+str is alwasy nice to our build.
i use 4L Setup for RF instead of 3L. Ele focus boost RF damage quite big for 48% more ele dmg.



BiS for Armor, 4 Off colors is pretty expensive tho. or if you lucky enough you can get 4B2R in under 500 chromes :D




Again, Ele dmg + fire spell dmg is super nice. although life is not that good and lot of useless prop on it.



For Gem setup i use ice spear + GMP + Cwdt for crit proc.
and i use shield charge for movement skill+curse and fortify. (i think i need to find a better way to apply curse and proc fortify as i hardly use it, cant do it when spamming flameblast )
The rest is nothing unusual, need to find a better replacement. For flask i replace the basalt for good dmg boost
