[3.1] Oni-Goroshi One Punch 100% fire conversion

Do we really need infernal blow? MS seems to clear really good too, whats the cons of using only MS to clean? Also, at what level sould I take vaal pact and what minor god should I use?

I think I already answered that question few times. You can go with MS only if you prefer. I decided to go with both skills, since we can have 2nd blade and 6L chest.

IB will be superior to MS in terms of trash clear, speed wise, just because of the IB vs MS mechanic. That's the reason why the build is called one punch, since IB blows up the corpses with damage equal to 10% of maximum corpse life.

That does not mean you can't enjoy pure MS approach but then it won't be one punch :).

Additionally, it might be worth to replace Multistrike gem for IB setup with either FA or ICS since Multistrike has a drawback of repeating skill twice, means you're stuck for a second (wait to finish animation). I did not test it, but some people test it and say it's better than Multistrike. You can give it a try.

Minor pantheon is really a matter of personal preference, I don't see any real advantage of that. Soul of Abberath has fire theme and reduces fire damage taken while moving by 5%, so we will only benefit from that when we use whirling blade, still might be worth. Soul of Ralakesh reduces 25% physical damage over time, means reducing downside of blood rage, that is also worth to consider, additionally you cannot be blinded and maimed, I would probably choose that.

I need some help with some mechanics regarding the sword and Her Embrace.

Elemental focus linked onto MS would disallow ignites to proc right ? So how is Her Embrace being proc-ed ?

You need to apply elemental ailment which in our case is ignite. Having that said, you can't use EF with the sword, but we got anyway perfect setup, why would you like to use EF?

Have you tested out whether Multistrike over Ruthless is actually better for the build? I'm running Ruthless bc that's the highest gem I had before switching to this build and lvling it haha

ojejku,

Loving the build so far. Other than gaining some levels do you see anything that can be tweaked with my gems/gear? I ended up using my chest for my skill 6L rather than running two Oni swords.

Thanks!

@Asmodeia, I said already, it might be worth trying FA/ICS instead of multistrike for IB setup since we're trying one punch apporach, give it a try. Multistrike has a drawback of locking you to attack in place a bit longer than without it because it repeats skill twice (means twice longer animation). Might be other gems as well, like Maim you mentioned.

@Gussboy your character looks pretty well and glad you're having a balst with the build. You already got Xoph's Blood which is the most expensive item in the build :). I would focus on steel rings, +3 MS projectiles enchant and Dying Sun flask now.

The PoB link you have there linked EF with MS, I referred that and thought that was your link without referring to the forum, just realised that ! My bad ! Was wondering if there was some other mechanics I might have missed out !

I said that couple of times :) EF in PoB is just for the sake of calculating real DPS of MS magma balls, since Multistrike is not taken into calculation in PoB so far. It should be more or less the same with MS gem. You can take a look at your attack rate, and DPS, nothing changes when you use MS gem for magma balls. If you change to melee hit instead then all of a sudden DPS calculation works fine with Multistrike gem.

hey ojejku, Done all the game content except shaper (gonna try it today). One of the most fun builds i've ever player. Sometimes I have some problems sustaining mana while moving and I have a jewel with 20% imr while moving. Am I doin something wrong? here is my profile if you wanna take a look.
