Why are you using purity of lightning? for resist cap? Would be appreciated to hear the answer

It's likely cause he needed lightning resist. I don't think there is a magical answer or some epithany, etc.

@livejamie

Slayer may look good at a first glance but the longer you look at the Ascendency and skills im using you will see that Slayer is actually suboptimal.

I can see Slayer synergy well with Infernal Blow like Mathil is doing now but overall Infernal Blow is a subbar skill on its own -> has a very low dmg ceiling and clear.

@Mastarna

It't not only to cap resists but actually to overcap them (Lightning and Fire are most common additional bosses dmg types). There is also one more reason i dont want to disclosure now but will soon.

Update - adding some new items to improve my setup.




Dying Sun allows to drop One WildFire jewel.

Watcher's Eye helps with Physical Damage with our Purities ( perfect would be 9% phys from fire mitigation and 8% from lightning ~ 17% all the time). Mine provides only ~15% mitigation :S

Hi,

What about thief torment instead of kaom's way for this one? regen should still be enough to keep her embrace at bay and life recovery should be pretty similar to having vaal pact pre-nerf, whitout actually the downsides.

Also no more mana problems in like, ever and 50% reduced curse effect also nice.
plus could cherrubim be decent budget item if you don't own kaom, still 100 life and 100% leech rate?

Sustaining the 3 sec buff with leech is not really a problem, sustaining spam with 0.4% mana leech also.

Losing a lot of survivability because of one less purity (no int) and one less endurance charge seems like a bigger problem.

Theft's Torment works well with Claw builds because you have 100 instant leech per ball, but im not using claws.

Im also running Curse immunity flask so curse effectiveness doesnt make much sense. 50% of zero is still zero.

can this build run an ele reflect map?

For anyone wondering why the Purity of Lightning.

Check the Jewels section, Watcher's Eye :)

So now that i'm in maps, it's still going smooth. I've bought everything needed except xoph's neck so far. I have enough for it but here is my worry:

Avatar of fire on frost blades. With it converting then doing no non fire damage - won't I lose damage on frost blades because i'm not converting it all to fire at that point? Or is the way it converts 60% to cold first then to fire take care of it? As it stands frost blades clears amazing, but then there is always that yellow straggler mob that takes 10 packs worth of time to kill as it is.

Another issue i'm having is even with all of our life regen and keeping endurance charges up - spike damage is harsh as heck. I sometimes I recover it back very quickly and can recoup, other times even keeping everything up, I recover almost nothing it seems. Any suggestions? If I can find a way to keep it at the crazy fast regen I wont be worried as I push into red maps. Right now though i'm a bit worried.

I also tweaked my tree a little and took the crit melee nodes on the left side of tree over the right side. I might eventually take both when I go for the dodge nodes but for now it works great and ends up being a lot more crit and multi for 1 more point (but pathing for the dodge on the other side makes sense).

Update - added more bosses videos.

@coaa

Please take a look again at flask section.

Melee crit nodes do not work on projectiles, better switch those points to ACRO. 23% leech and 2.3 sec eternal life flask + regen shoud cover all regen issues.

ps. Try to get second tukohama soul

Thanks man, i'll take care of everything you mentioned. Waiting on a few items to sell and taking the final leap to grab xophs.

How good is perserverance at keeping the fort buff up btw? Never used it and think it'll be pretty hard to cap res using it over my decent stygians. Might skip it and make sure I whirl into packs instead.
