[3.1] Volatile Berserker (Poet's Pen + Volatile Dead) | 8-9K Life | Incredible DPS | Easy Leveling
|
This build is amazing, thanks for posting. Got both my Poet's Pens earlier today. Less tooltip because my previous offhand had ~100% Fire Dmg but the clear speed is off the hook!
I've had to tweak my filter because I just can't deal with this much crap to sort through ^_^ Still need a lot of work to get it really optimized but shouldn't be too long now. Toughest part is gonna be Starkonja's w/ Enchant. Best part about Berserker spell casters is the insane tankiness in the insane cluster $^&ks. Abyss and Breaches get cleared with ease. A good budget item are the jewels with "#% Increased Attack Speed if You've Dealt a Critical Hit Recently" really helps out on clear speed if you don't have the setup for running Anger/Haste or can't neglect helm slot resists for a Starkonja's. Nice little bonus... I destroyed a Lvl 89 Ice Shot Ranger in PvP when I was only Lvl 70 rockin 1x Poet's Pen. So apparently this build is pretty good for that too if that's what you're into. Kinda hard to run away from auto-tracking balls of fiery death right? xD Cheers |

" Glad you're enjoying it! Yeah, Volatile Dead is insane for PvP. So if you want to level up Leo super easily and make a ton of people angry, this is your build. |

About the uberlab skills, which one guys do you reccomend? I think both 3 can be useful depending the scenario

This build is just absolutely wrecking at the moment, destroying T15s
Currently can get about 2.5m damage with this stuff What do you think I could do to get it even higher? start shooting for super good rolls in general? Last edited by G7Ghost#0503 on Jan 1, 2018, 10:35:34 PM

Why do you run GMP with Frenzy? Is it just to make leeching easier? I was considering using Blood Magic so I can pre-emptively charge up more balls before a fight starts.
Also, what do you think of Hrimnor's Resolve as a cheap alternative for helmets? Getting the enchant on a good base is hard/expensive. Last edited by ngoof1#6540 on Jan 2, 2018, 6:13:58 AM

Is it better to get close to 4.0 atk speed before or after crave the slaughter procs. Because I saw a chart today and it seems going over 4 really nerfs ur dps. It seems like crave the slaughter is a negative in this build. But zerker gets leech and every other class needs a 15ex jewel.

" - Cooldown reduction on Belt and Boots in order to increase the amount of triggers you can reach per second. - Level 21 Volatile Dead increases damage significantly. - Craft Opal rings with % Fire Damage suffix. - Amulet with crit multi/fire damage/crit strikes, optional Shaper amulet with pen. - Better jewels " PCoC requires you to crit when hitting an enemy with Unearth. We also don't really go crit until level 75/80+ since it's difficult to get enough crit + multi to make it worthwhile before end-game. " You want to make sure you stay under 4 APS with the proc. That's why getting CDR on belt and boots is nice. |

" You want to make sure you stay under 4 APS with the proc. That's why getting CDR on belt and boots is nice.[/quote] How do the mechanics affect DPS negatively by going over 4APS? Does that lower the number of balls generated per second? |

" How do the mechanics affect DPS negatively by going over 4APS? Does that lower the number of balls generated per second?[/quote] You have "dead attacks" where you attack and nothing happens. Poet's Pen has an internal cooldown of 0.25 seconds, which means that without CDR gear your maximum output is 4 triggers per second. |
