[3.1] The Laserbeam! Crit Ball Lightning build - Clearspeed & Bosskills!

how is the Plaza boss handled if you don't have enough DPS to quickly burn the boss down?

@udgnim:

Before i was able to burst it down i turned off Herald of Ice to have more mana. Attack it until you lost 50% life and use Vinktar then. Depending on your damage you may have to leave and re-enter the map 1-2 times, to fill your mana.

Alright, I got entchanted boots fit into my build (1-160). Could be better but also worse: .
And see what happenend next:


Thanks alot for the guide and the quick responses! Had a blast here, this Character feels really strong and quite unique, has a fun but risky playstyle, is challenging but rewarding.

I just found an Opal ring with 24%, will try to web in into my build!

Edit (works for me):

@Brize:

Well played! Next goal uber Atziri? :P

If you still enjoy the build - try The Tempest's Binding. I am convinced now this helmet is superior compared to any rare one! :)



Even without the right enchantment my Shaper runs are a lot faster now. :)

Yes, Uber Atziri is indeed the next Boss I plan on trying, since I never even tried it before :)

Dammit, I sold my Tempest Helmet which I made from Beachhead runs, time to get another one I guess. Do you then stick to slower projectiles for clearing as well without the enchantment? I already figured that the Harbinger "Shock" must be insanely strong against big bosses like Shaper, but I haven't tried it myself.

@Brize:

It is! Shock means 20% MORE damage! On top of that your Orb of Storms becomes 6L.

Im still using Faster Proj. for clear, you could use Faster Casting or Culling Strike until you got the enchantment aswell.

@onlyjb
Alright, the problem is that I have to recraft my gloves and / or ring (jewels) because of resistances if I switch to Tempest. If I find time on the weekend I might give it a shot, even though I am already very happy with where my character is right now. On the other hand, min maxing and trying out things is what makes these games fun... Well you had me at "20%" :D

Thank you for posting such an interesting build. Just a quick thought, I think the build get a lot more damage as a low life / ES build? Ever thought of doing that?

@Brize:

Had to fix resist aswell, it is worth doing that tho :)

Last season i played it ES based, was extreme strong. Due to the Vaal Pact changes this is not possible anymore, because the build relys on instant leech.

The damage is the same as last season, just had more eHP (10k es vs 6.6k life + 1.2k es now).
To be exact the damage is even higher than last season because of the new "Arcane Surge" gem when i think about it. :P

I changed a bit my build, now i'm with 4,9k hp + 1,1k ES.
Until tier 10 things are pretty easy, but 11+ I can die really quick even by mobs. And bosses seems almost impossible, any little mistake is certain death. And I only tried tier 11 and 12.
The damage is good but trying an all-in (using every potion and just attacking) dont work well due to me dying too quick.

Can anyone give me some tips?
I'm really not having my best time playing =/.

EDIT: BTW I'm lvl 88
