It doesn't have regen (VP), so it's kind of average at Uber Lab. It's good for Izaro though. You should take Leap Slam, 3 Staunching Life/Hybrid Flasks and Soul of Ryslatha for it.

Mapping and Bosses are it's strong points.

gonna try this build for the new league, it looks good and seems tanky with the effective EHP I just hope I can level it without too much hassle!

Now that you can chill/freeze Shaper / Guardiands etc does that mean that this build does twice the damage to those bosses now than it did before?

You could always Chill Shaper since 3.0, so we always had Frostbreath / Hypothermia in effect. The new 3.1 Freeze change doesn't help us, but the Arctic Armour change (from 10% to 30% slow) might make the fight easier if it applies to the Chilled Ground applied by it.

the detailed leveling section would be nice before 3.1 releases would help me alot since I am not that great with leveling correctly diff builds ( kinda of a new player started with harbinger league )

Hmm, gonna try this build out this league I think. Main draw for me was how cheap the 'bis' weapon was. However I did change the tree somewhat. Instead of going through the shadow to witch I went left of duelist's master of arena through the max life nodes to get to elemental overload.

Here is a mockup. I took nodes to make it very similar to your 68 as possible but I have access to (imo) stronger nodes around templar area and the life scion circle. The only significant difference I think is I have access to less mana but thats offset by having access to significant more life.

Some of the new uniques in this league is amazing for this build.

Leveled till 66, great build. Played SC, did most of the content without deaths. However, Lycosidae currently costs around 70 chaos, which is a bit too much for my budget. Any decent alternatives?

Yeah, I got the same problem. I'm assuming the reason we are running lycosidae is for the 'your hits can't be evaded' so I was thinking I just get some accuracy stuff to try and bump chance to hit above 90% until I can afford it then respec/reequip my items.

Yep. Lycosidae is now a chase item for the build. As far as shields to replace it, I'll have to do some research.

Anyways, this build is quite bonkers this league due to Abyss Jewels with up to 150 Elemental Attack Damage, and loads of increased Damage on Elder items. It has a much higher damage cap than before, I'm estimating that with even average jewels you will be doing about 3x the Damage as before. I can't test though since I'm not starting with Cyclone this league (going Lightning Strike), but I will later in the league.
