[3.14] Gannicus, God of the Arena – Deathless Uber Elder for Everyone

Just chiming in to say this build guide has a very relatable REDDIT thread right now about misleading POBs.

You have all flasks ticked.
Not Sirus DPS. (nobody cares about elder anymore)
Some VERY exspensive watchers eyes.
The great gear version has a 450 dps 1hander...
The maim -mana chest with 150 life 13% life ?????
Against bosses u have been hit recently...


There is more, but after unticking your DPS buffers..It has a very VERY modest dps at best so much so its barely worth going crit.

I mean why did you tick diamond flask ? You know something about permanent uptime on diamond flasks i dont ? Since even with your main Great gear version you are not keeping diamond up against uber elder or sirus.

TO ANYONE ELSE READING TAKE NOTE.

The build is generally ok. Tanky enough. HP leaves something to be desired without frankly amaznig gear.

This build isnt really a 3.14 boss killer.

Clear will be ok but suffer in late reds a LOT until you get 380+pdps weapons and even then rares and bosses you will be spinning at for a while.

Make sure to check the POB and uncheck all the unrealistic boxes.

Hello!

Very nice build! I love how tankie it is, but i am having problems about the average dps...

Have any idea on what i could do to improve it? I just have 3ex so far

(Don't mind the body for now, i know its totally garbage)

On side note, im trying to use cyclone instead of bladestorm (juts changed 2 gems) with the same exact build and i find i do much more dps with it :(

Ofc i keep sand for aoe and blood for bosses

You can get a better amulet that'll give you more damage and better swords. Don't know the prices in the league though. Also the gems seem right for cyclone but I'm not sure how it is in practice, especially close combat.

What the hell does it matter what PoB says? Does it change how the build plays? NO. Will checking or unchecking boxes make your char better or worse? NO.

A guy WITH A MIRROR SERVICE accusing me of having amazing gear. Thanks dude!

You obviously haven't seen the muriads of streamer builds on this forums using Loath Banes, 1-point voices etc.

LOL !, dude your build is a lie, sirus and shaper dps does matter, go see for yourself.

Friends of mine who have just started, play your build, then they ask me, why isnt this shit working, i say send me the build guide/POB.

Then i have to explain to my friends that the guy who made the build is a huge liar and POB warriors his dps unrealistic checkboxes.

Has utterly unrealistic gear in league especially with harvest gone some of which is even unrealistic for most players in std.

If you are going to post a build and then keep[ hyping that shit to people endlessly throughout your thread be more realistic about it.

I didnt compare your build to anyone else builds all im here to point out is that DONT TICK BOXES WHICH DONT APPLY TO THE BUILD AND THEN PROMOTE IT AS AVERAGE DAMAGE.

The build even on your GREAT gear is about 900k dps under most circumstances and the average gear struggles to break 100k.

I don't want to get into an argument with anyone over the builds DPS as I've not got ultra far in the league yet, but for me the DPS has improved drastically after getting a Saviour.

Only got up to T16 maps and A5 Sirus so far, so I'll withhold judgement till I've done an A8.

I'll say one thing, it is a very tanky build. I usually play minion builds or miners so it's quite a different experience.

... a bunch of BS....

Hundreds of messages thanking me for the build. People playing this for multiple leagues. They can make this work but you can't. Whose fault is that?

But hey... keep trying. Maybe some day you'll learn how to play the game and manage to get above level 95. Then again, maybe not... Till then keep doing what you're good at. Staying below 90.

P.S. Got plenty more...

Nah, don't ruin it for him. Let him rant. He's only embarassing himself.

I mean, the guy is still using a Scaeva and he has it IN THE MAIN HAND. He can't even read the mods. This game is just too hard for some people and they need to pin their failure on someone else.

Been following this build for past few days, as well as the arguments regarding whether the build is good or not.

I league started as champion ballista totem, played till early white maps, DMG was decent, defense was so so. Couldn't complete ultimatum with the build.

Then I stumbled upon this build, respec'd my char and bought the entry level gear. The difference was day and night. To give you an idea, I died like 40-50 times till white maps with my ballista champion. But after switching the build, I only died 6 times till t10 maps. Also, I managed to complete all the ultimatums I found till last round, not failing even ONCE. I died in ultimatum only 1 time that too my mistake coz I picked that flask mod and died to bleed. I should mention that I was using a 350 pdps sword along with scaeva.

But, I am changing my build from this point onwards. Not because it's bad or something, but because I know I won't be able to afford The Savior sword along with a high pdps good rare/ Paradoxica as I get to play for few hrs only daily. I won't be able to afford those expensive items with little playtime I get.

That's why I'm changing to bleed bladestorm version which requires cheaper gear in comparison.

So to conclude, the build is great, a cheap pdps sword + scaeva/ prismatic eclipse will carry you till t10 maps. After that you'll have to spend some currency to do red maps comfortably.

Quick question. will 5l Death's Oath do the job as a starter at lvl 69 with 3 first labs done ? :-)
