Hi,

Can't decide what should I use

This carcass or bronn

Halp please? :3

Spoiler

Bronn's do not want to update on character, but it do have 48% movement dmg.

With Carcass & all standard buffs + 70% fire on chieftain I do have

9800 - (18.900+70% Chief) - 21k Combined dmg on Molten - 25k Per use
64k - 68k - 112k - 125k DPS Dmg on Cyclone

With Bronn's it is

9100 - (17.200+70% Chief) 18k Combined Dmg on Molten - 23k per use
68 - 75 - 118 - 124k DPS on cyclone
133k DPS on cyclone with Movement boost dmg

apart from that while standing in HO it is :

Carcass :

Molten : 12.400 - 21800 with Chieftain 70% combined dmg on molten
Cyclone : 50k - 87k with Chieftain 70%

Bronn's

Molten 11.600 - 20300 with Chieftain 70% combined dmg on molten
Cyclone 53k - 92.700 with Chieftain 70%

I do get a bit more on Molten but lose much more on cyclone. Apart its few res more and 250+ hp more with carcass

Between Carcass and Bronn, Bronn will always outperform Carcass when it comes to damage. Carcass main advantage comes from more toughness and easier to color.

So if you are a person who prefer offense as the best defense, then Bronn will be the better choice for you. :)

Loving this build, farmed my first ever Headhunter with it too!

Now just going for 36/40. Great Guide.

Congrats to your Headhunter belt and 36 challenges!

The challenges this league are very SSF unfriendly. I strongly doubt I will even obtain 36 at all...

If i can't afford to buy Watcher's Eye with Fire penet. should I just buy Physical as extra fire (20-25%) and second buff doesn't matter?

You should go for "Gain #% physical damage as extra fire damage" if you can only pick 1 of those 2. Extra fire gives you more damage on Shaper than the fire penetration version.

u play RT version with (so seems to me) a very cheap gear....so u say axe+new chief tree = destroy the atlas? what's your goals? (over the 36/40 obviously)

I dont really have any goals anymore now lol. Yes this build does very well vs the atlas and red elder. I payed for guardian t16 completions so idk how it does vs them. I mostly just did uber lab and lower red maps.

So this setup is a good Uberlab Farmer? Nice to hear It!!!

Update on gear in BHC for those interested.



Just entering red maps - full key run in uber lab is quite easy. Beat yellow elder and all guardians.

Once I get a good watcher's eye; considering the following
- Specc out of iron flex (currently have a node there)
- Craft Aspect of the Crab to use in combination with Anger
- Get elemental weakness curse on hit tombfists

@kira1414

ok need to get some answer which armour to get.

Funds are low, low I mean low.

What armour to get:

1) Loreweave or

2) Bronn's Light

Perhaps I can effort a 5-link.

Also which chest piece is better for Chromes. To get colours right.

I cannot decide between Chieftain, Slayer, Scion or Champion for Ngamahu. Any help? Would Scion with Slayer and Elementalist work especially with Ele Reflect?

Thanks for sharing your hardcore experience and very nice gears you have over there. :)

Loreweave is more chromes friendly so I would recommend you to get that if you are tight on budget.

I would recommend you to start off with Chieftain because it is the cheapest to gear for end game.

Slayer + Elementalist will do less damage than Slayer + Raider for Scion. Just don't run Elemental Reflect maps. :)

Maybe this has been answered already, if so i apologise.

Isn't all that extra damage to ailments wasted if we use elemental focus on our dmg skills ?

the way i understood it was that your cyclone cant ignite, but since you dont have EF socketed into your axe when your run the ignite jewel for mapping, the balls from the molten burst can ignite still.

What gems should get priority of my GCPs?
