Shadow - [3.12] Durimon's Ball Lightning Miner "REVIVED", 6 ex, even FASTER than pre-nerf (Updated) - Forum

Hello, thanks for the build. i'm new to the game and just kinda try this build and i'm very happy with it. i'm following the levelling guide and still on icicle mine, the enemy just melt very fast. things started getting bit hard on act 5. i killed enemy fast, but if i'm not careful i get one-shotted too. my HP was around 1.2k iirc. any tips on when should i start switching to ball lightning? i'm still looking for a 6L chest too.

Was pretty smooth to go for 40/40 on this build and did pretty costy investment to improve my gear.	Posted by FinYuna#1105 on Feb 14, 2020, 4:10:55 AM Quote this Post
What are your thoughts on the fastest mine setup to level with? We are heaving 1) stormblast 2) iceicle 3) arc mines 4) ball lightning mines. I tried ball lightning minefield setup with 38 and it works pretty well. Though all the mines seem to work pretty well :D	Posted by Logicmaker#4428 on Feb 14, 2020, 7:25:44 AM Quote this Post
Hi I have almost identical gear but with a 5 link and identical passives and the same jewels. But I in no way can 1 shot any metamorphs the damage is very low compared to what you show. Has this entire build been nerfed or is there something you dont tell in the guide.	Posted by BreadyMcBread#9133 on Feb 17, 2020, 10:26:02 PM Quote this Post
Hi I'm following this build so far, though I'm curious about the pure lighting version. What would be the pro and con for it? Any POB link? " Nosferat wrote: " CowKiller wrote: I've upgraded my gear and also the tree and can steam roll anything. The only issue I have are one-shots as with 7.6k ES it's still quite common to be shredded to pieces usually off-screen, but that's the disadvantage of mines. With better jewels I believe that 9k ES is possible, but that's another 30ex investment. Also I use Thread of Hope - very large circle to get one more jewel slot. The strategy on bosses is to throw brand, pop flasks, throw mines and activate vaal fire + grace => profit. Elemental focus instead of Added lighting gem. After all nice build after some decent investment. I went for the pure lightning version, it's not even maxed out but it can easily do all content,and gearing it was much cheaper. I think my total cost of gear is about the same as the cost of your bottled faith. I even did 3 uber elder runs, died a couple of times, but mostly because I don't know the mechanics as well as a shaper fight for instance,did uber atziri deathless,sirus 8 deathless,etc,etc... and reached about 400 in delve,then got bored and stopped. Btw why not use defense modifiers on your amulet? You could get some extra ES out of it. I enjoyed the fire conversion variant of the build, but to me it does not seem endgame viable, not unless you throw some ex at it. The lightning variant while might not be as satisfying at times,or as safe(exploding porkupines come to mind), it's much cheaper to gear and damage wise it can reach a higher potential.

I love this build, enjoyed it. But the squishiness is killing it, literally and figuratively. Sucks to die if you miss a dash.	Posted by CreedAventus#1288 on Feb 22, 2020, 8:26:49 PM Quote this Post

Hey, i have a question to the damage conversion, why is it important to use the Call of the Brotherhood ring and to convert lightning to cold, if you take Avatar of Fire, which says "Deal no nonfire damage" ? And do we Benefit from all stats from "Explosives Expert"? Or only from the 30% multi because of only fire damage? I would appreciate it, if you could expain this to me. I would love to take this build for my next league start, if it`s not too squishy..	Posted by DunklerKoenig#4662 on Feb 28, 2020, 6:09:42 PM Quote this Post

Also, open "calcs" tab in PoB and see damage calculations. Explosives expert works with Skitterbots and provides all bonuses. Main layer of defence of this build is a damage. You kill mobs so fast, so they can't hurt you. BUT only if you have a core items. It is really expencive to get 7+ ES on this build. With budget setup I had only 5.5k es. I tried it on SSF and I wasn't pleased by results. It has low survivability upon I reached the maps and mobs with ele res were hard to kill. Personally, I wil not play this build on start, but I gonna save up the currency to buy all core items.
