" Personally I think Lycosidae is bad for us. We can reach 85-95 chance to hit np from gear/skills and accuracy has diminishing returns as you near 100. Meanwhile Frenzy Charges scale harder with other sources of minion damage. Victario's Just outclasses Lycosidae and additionally provides us with frenzy/power charges. Broken Faith is interesting but I haven't found a good way to test or sim it, I suspect it would be similar to vic in damage, but doesn't provide the added utility of phase run duration that vic's does Last edited by Utopian238#5973 on Jan 1, 2019, 10:14:53 AM

 Was messing around in POB putting this in. Anyone else wanna bother trying it out in POB as well, for me i get MASSIVE damage increase compared to best in slot chest even with 1 less golem and no frenzy charges or power charges. Not to mention it opens new interesting ways to play the build with 2 6links |

" Yeah that sims better for me as well, Roughly a 10% increase in dps. what's the process to actually craft one of these? The loss of minion movespeed is annoying, but it frees up a lot of room to play with your tree since you don't need to path to necro aegis Last edited by Utopian238#5973 on Jan 1, 2019, 7:27:39 PM

" Should be alt spam for +1 and maim > regal > annul the regal > multi craft rest Dont think it will be a massive investment rolling this, never alted before so i might be terribly wrong. Even better version would be spamming bound fossil and getting minion dmg 100+ along with +1 and maim, probably annuling the trash then going for multicraft, but that would probably make any person lose sanity rolling that.

Can't be worse than going for the maim/gem levels fossil craft that we do right now.
This also frees us up to run a bunch of various good unique chests like Kaom's, Victario's Influence, Vis Mortis and the like. I don't have the +2 levels craft unlocked is that from veils or did I miss a bench somewhere? |

" Its a rank2 Unveil, probably best way is just to pay some1 to craft it, +1 costs 1 divine, +2 costs 1 ex to craft |

" I've been running a two hander ice golem build this league (char name: CytocReGolems) This is the item: Process to craft this (it's probably 20% lower total dps compared to the multi-crafted 6-link but it was a pretty straight forward craft): Starting with a level 76+ shaper maul: 1) Alt spam to get +20 maim and any prefix 2) Regal a suffix (I got lucky with + strength) -> I reckon it's cheap enough at this point to push for a decent suffix 3) Craft on Cannot roll attack mods 4) Slam can only roll +1 socketed gems or cast on melee kill -> this is the risky part of the craft because cast on melee kill is a brick and needs to be anulled or scoured 6) craft on +2 support gems (I would recommend crafting on +quality and 6-linking before applying this if it is not already 6-linked) I crafted this early league and didn't have the currency to push for a +1 socketed gems and +20 maim support before regaling, so I'm not sure exactly how much "cheaper" this version would be compared to the ideal multi-crafted one. I went for the two-hander approach because I wanted to run Kaom's Heart and there didn't really seem to be a big DPS loss compared to victario's charity. I'm insanely socket starved, but other than a cwdt, there is not a lot that I feel I'm really missing (though Avian -> Spider would be better). With my current tree, gear (mostly self-found / crafted rares) and upgrading to a +4 empower, I have 5 ice golems with 285,000 default attack shaper DPS and 456,000 cyclone shaper DPS (only maimed and hit by lightning ticked).

Oh man that 7L is strictly better than a bow, why didn't I consider it before I went to all that trouble.
If you were looking to make as perfect a craft as possible some things to keep in mind. Since Maim20 is a suffix and Paragon's is a prefix you *Could* Alt for the +1 and Maim (I would imprint this) - Regal any suffix, Multi-mod, +2 supp, Minion damage, Minion atk speed. If you wanted to Chase the +1 Dex/Str Delve suffix and the 110-130 minion damage you could use Faceted+Bound+Corroded+Metallic - But you'd also probably have to Anul off a bleed suffix and hit Paragon's instead of +Melee. Which is probably approaching a few dozen ex of ripped crafts. Some things possibly able to mitigate this would be the Split beastcraft, if you hit +1/Maim/+Str with a bunch of excess affixes - I think chasing this will be a bit more entertaining than a +1 curse chain so I'll get working on it as I've found no other build I want to dump currency into as much as this one |
