💀┃acolyte

[glass sigil]

All, wandering spirit has potential to play, i see mtx of this skill is so cool

[obtuse quest]

It's decent, but it's not good enough to be a main damage skill. Really good as it's role of supplemental damage. (I'm not too sure if the new unique has enough impact.)

[crisp ridge]

is that enough or do u actually need it on gear?

specifically for ubberoth

[obtuse quest]

Can't tell you, but the passive is the main source iirc. I don't know much about uberroth tech tbh.

[cedar crane]

Could I possibly get some help with my build? am following Dr3adful's Chthonic Fissure build (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4rlL-VPdzKA&pp=0gcJCR0AztywvtLA) and made it to empowered monos. Not sure if I did anything wrong but I feel super squishy and my damage is mediocre at best. Not too sure what to do to fix this

[obtuse quest]

What in the godamn heck are these items. How did you even beat the harbinger.

[cedar crane]

A lot of effort and skill? lmfao

I am really bad when it comes to crafting stuff

[obtuse quest]

I don't know what to say but "You don't even have the correct offensive stats"

[cedar crane]

am very much unsure what to do rn

[obtuse quest]

If you can't clear base empowered, go back to normals and find items with fire damage, crit chance or spell damage.

... wait.

I think I'm missing something here.

[crisp ridge]

thats allg, im just tryin out different builds as i havent rly plaued acolyte since warlock release

would like to get ubberoth done with acolyte but im nit rly sure what builds seem plausible as of yet

[cedar crane]

This build doesn't do crit, never did

[crisp ridge]

the fissure + shade felt pretty bad ngl, a lot worse than zombies imo.

[strange plank]

Getting better

👍

[strange plank]

HP is the stat I have found has made me feel way more tankier and build smoother

[obtuse quest]

Hp is ultra important as lich, yeah.

[cedar crane]

I might as well just swap to the lich build over the warlock/cthonic one, seems like it's better

Just need to somehow get the right gear for it

[strange plank]

I found getting elemental damage over time has been more common then necrotic damage and % health increase, Also getting a +2 Drain life is tough on chest.

But thats just me

[crisp ridge]

ive played bith this season, and if ur specifically aiming for infernal shade stuff, lich felt a lot better

[obtuse quest]

Hmmm.

Godamnit dr3ad.

[crisp ridge]

fissure just felt bad with spirits having to proc shades, but zombies kinda just do it easily and through rebirth

then ofc lich has heaps of dmg buffs and leech and a kind of 2nd life

[hardy sapphire]

Imagine needing to cast spells while clearing shit 😄 necro masterrace ❤️

[cedar crane]

Did i pick a bad build? lol

[crisp ridge]

witchfire was the funniest for this

cast chaos bolts twice to get doubled damned -> run around whilst everything burns around you

[hardy sapphire]

no idea what that is. Currently playing my first ever LE char and made a necro with skelly mages, perma wraiths and perma golem+abom

Game plan is to run/teleport to objective while everything around me melts in to loot

[obtuse quest]

No, you just picked a build more complicated than expected.

[cedar crane]

🪦

[obtuse quest]

This is just a jacked up version of overload warlock.

[cedar crane]

I'm prolly jsut gonna go with his more recent lich crit build, but i need a starting point on gear. Decision Paralysis is so real with LE crafting

[obtuse quest]

You'll hit a wall after around end game-

[hardy sapphire]

most likely. clearing lvl80 ish echoes at lvl70 atm. Expecting to hit the first wall before last echoes since i have done absolutely 0 crafting so far

[crisp ridge]

dont need anything for it beyond crit and rings. rest is pretty open

[obtuse quest]

You'll most likely hit it at the last one or right after that.

[crisp ridge]

lichs envy and immolators are easy to farm tho

[hardy sapphire]

Ye starting to feel the incoming hardwall due to some random boss managed to 1hit me today. Turns out 0 defenses and 1k hp is kinda sketchy 😄

But the dmg feels way more than fine for now. Gotta learn crafting basics and start to get some dmg scaling aswell as getting some defenses rolling in

[crisp ridge]

dmg is rarely the issue

[hardy sapphire]

feels like it

bigger rare mobs die in 0.2 - 1 secs without me even ordering minions towards it

[cedar crane]

With my current gear can I just swap over to the lich crit? My gear sucks and unsure it's better to stick with my current build or swap to the lich one

[crisp ridge]

if u have some crit gear yes, ideally the rings

wrongwarp + pale ox + blood of exile are all pretty big upgrades but not needed in bare bones

lichs envy and immolators are easy to farm when ur ready

[stiff summit]

Are you playing infernal lich

Join the gang

[chrome mason]

stuck at work instead of grinding w my new upgrades, sad life

[crisp ridge]

did u get abby done?

[chrome mason]

yeah easily

now i facetank him and he dies in sub 40 seconds

[obtuse quest]

I'm also stuck at work even though I'm yapping here.

[stiff summit]

I'm afraid our favorite class is getting rework in 1.3

[crisp ridge]

solidd, got my 10 harbingers done but said id abby with a friend 😭

so now im just collecting gear for other builds

[obtuse quest]

Good!

[stiff summit]

What if it gets forgeguard treatment

[obtuse quest]

It's can't get worse than whatever it is currently passive tree wise.

Except hollow lich I want that node kept for the comedy tech.

[chrome mason]

i hit this disgusting hit yday, and then 10 min later i drop the most unusable nihilis

[stiff summit]

I love the crit nodes on lich though

Castspeed too

[obtuse quest]

Ehhh I can take it or leave it for the crti ones.
The cast speeds are pretty nice.

Oh, wait...

Oh no, I'm getting stupid ideas again.

[hardy sapphire]

dont fight them ideas, embrace them!

[topaz marlin]

double [Phantom Grip] sounds pree crazy

[obtuse quest]

Free flat crit!

[humble goblet]

is this a good boots?

[indigo plinth]

Hi all, i drop this weapon, i will cast chaos bolt and rhe fissure will be call by the weapon. Witch passif skill tree i should use to have a nice build for warlock?

[obtuse quest]

1. Sir and or madam we have a build planner: https://www.lastepochtools.com/planner/

2. Just build an ignite setup.

[indigo plinth]

thanks man

[lament kernel]

ambition of erased acolyte is the only relic that gives +skills?

[obtuse quest]

It's the only one that gives + acolyte skills, yeah.

The rest are + skills of other tags (Like + cold minions or + physical or + fire)

[lament kernel]

would like to have something with lp and +skills or +minion skills since i have all minion skills i think 😅

[topaz marlin]

is it viable tho haha if I run all the + minion skills eqs

[obtuse quest]

I don't know how you'll get enough generic stats probably.

[glass shale]

Instead of rip blood what could i add here ? Im build around minion physical damage and minion crit chance

[obtuse quest]

Dread shade.

DREAD SHADE.

[glass shale]

hmm il check what it do Also only 1 u recomend is dread shade ?

[obtuse quest]

You could use bone curse's minion buff node, infernal shade's buff node (Tho that one will SUCK for your setup)

[glass shale]

I dont like how dread shade kills my minions thou

[vivid valve]

Iich seems something you spec into more late end game
Needs a lot of hp and endurance slams on legendary

What is a good build to do before that. Something easier to gear

[swift forge]

I like Minions personally

but I will say Wraithlord doesn't feel as smooth as I remembered it pre nerf

not just about the dmg, but it feels like he dies faster and is more clunky

[obtuse quest]

But it doubles/triples your minion dps basically. You can make it not kill either by building minion leech or taking the node that converts health drain into more damage taken.

[obtuse quest]

Warlock setups.

[vivid valve]

Didn't want to do warlock seems like I have to tho

Especially as MG

MG looking not good this season

[obtuse quest]

If you want fast leveling in acolyte, warlock is the answer.

[glass shale]

The infernal shade seems more manageable only deals 110 per tick Why did u say it would suck for my build

[vivid valve]

Well I'm lvl 65 wanna do end game now

But lich seems like a rough start perhaps

[obtuse quest]

Because dread shade's buff is an aura.

Infernal shade only buffs one minion.

[glass shale]

ahhh ic

yeah i got 11 total minions

[haughty token]

I have a question about this, if fissure doesn't cast spirits anymore, then the node that make it cast chaos bolt instead doesn't work anymore ?

[obtuse quest]

Correct.

Chaos Bolts has no Spirits to replace.

Although someone should double check that and see if it changed..

Wait I can do that, hold on.

[chilly star]

why does the stygian build feels so ... aweful ? Am i doing something wrong? Im on emp mono and my damage is so cheeks

i compared my stats to the planner one, and i only got like 25 ish% less multiplier on crit and like 5% crit

[obtuse quest]

Checked, still holds true, no spirits to replace=no chaos bolt.

[chilly star]

theres no way thats the reason im fighting a rare tomb map for a whole minute

mob*

[obtuse quest]

To be slightly fair, tomb maps are godamn tanky.

Errr I don't see any major issues at least.

[chilly star]

ye but in general, every possesed mob on any map

or exile mages

take so goddamn long

and thats only 100 corrup so far

[shut plover]

got anyone a solid lich build`?

[obtuse quest]

Other than the usual "I just hit empowered and some of my stats are a mess.", I don't see a major mistake you're making.

You did stack rip blood's buff before casting Drain Life right?

[chilly star]

well maybe the build is just slow in general idk

[chilly star]

ye

[obtuse quest]

Okay then I currently do not have a clue what you're missing.

[whole igloo]

anyone know why Wraithlord decay quicker than Solo Archmage ? I've tried both build but i need to recall Wraith lord in echo (with wraith build) but not my Archmage

[obtuse quest]

Do you have abberant as your unique?

[whole igloo]

yes

[obtuse quest]

Well, abberant's health drain is applied to ALL your minions.

[whole igloo]

erf so i have to up minion's life leech then

[obtuse quest]

Yes.

[chrome mason]

You need more mana

[pearl jewel]

hmm, i seem to have finally hit a bit of a wall with my basic minions

[chrome mason]

get 4 more skill points, spec the 6 points out of Mind over Body and put 5 points in Soul Stealer and Occultist's mind in the warlock tree. Also get the blessing for 90 mana

[pearl jewel]

lvl 43 and starting to see a little bit of struggle

[obtuse quest]

Time to slot in dread shade if you haven't.

[pearl jewel]

i've been spamming hungering souls a lot

i could drop that for dread shade maybe

[obtuse quest]

Errr, that's not going to do damage if you didn't build for spell or dot or necrotic damage...

[balmy void]

Heya, is channeled Wandering Spirit any good for a necrotic warlock? I'm thinking - cast Chtonic fissure, then channeling WS as a filler

[obtuse quest]

You can't move while channeling WS.

[balmy void]

Damn. That's a no no for me

Thanks

I'm trying to homebrew a necrotic warlock, and searching for something to spam while Fissure does most of the job

Spirit Plague looks underwhelming

[obtuse quest]

Spirit plague is fire and forget, unless for the DoT buff.

[balmy void]

Might as well spam Chaos Bolt with the node that increase fissure duration

The synergy is there

[vivid valve]

Anyone here play lich in early monoliths 70 lvlish

[elfin lodge]

Does this node work when fissure shoots the bolts?

[balmy void]

Don't think so

[vivid valve]

I might make an OP class and come back to acolyte

To farm gold and gear

Paladin or VK

I don't want to really play Warlock I wanted to do lich but the gear requirements seem steep

[elfin lodge]

I revamped my build yesterday a bit and picked up that node but never noticed anything. Which is weird because you're still effectively casting bolts out of the fissure.

What a mana hungry build too

[obtuse quest]

No, direct cast only, as it says.

[lament kernel]

can you change implicit on a unique in any way? >.>

[obtuse quest]

No

[elfin lodge]

Alright cool

[vivid valve]

So fissure warlock is my best bet at lvl 70?

[lament kernel]

so grimoire always reduce life regen then 😿

[obtuse quest]

Yup

[elfin lodge]

Idk I'm almost 90 with my ignite build

[vivid valve]

Is there no clear OP build yet like how sentinel has

Like face roll

[elfin lodge]

Don't think many people are playing lock

[vivid valve]

Damn

[balmy void]

Isn't lock a pure meta build

With Falconer and runemaster

[vivid valve]

No that's old RM is trash now

[balmy void]

The power level was insane last patch

They've been slightly nerfed but nothing crazy

Unless you push 1k corruption ofc

[vivid valve]

I'll try falconer or sentinel then

[balmy void]

I had a blast with RM spamming Lightning Blast

Just cast Glyph and spam LB

Enjoy

[vivid valve]

Yeah I kinda wanna be OP tho

[balmy void]

-> Paladin it is :3

I stopped playing it because it was noot fun

You can't die

[vivid valve]

I know sentinel and falconer had a few 2000 corruption builds already

Primalist too

And kill Uber

[balmy void]

No idea, I'm not trying to push that high lol

[autumn elbow]

Paladin is op and makes you forget how to use potions

[balmy void]

Right

[cedar crane]

Perhaps I am playing this Lich build wrong, but damn it feels kinda awful. Damage is good but my life pool is going up and down like a damn rollercoaster

[vivid valve]

Mage seems not able to kill Uber, was over nerfed

[balmy void]

Lich has not been updated in a long time and does not "feel" as good as the new stuff I'd say

The passive tree is kinda bland

No cool powerspike

[vivid valve]

I wanted to play Lich. I heard internal shade build is good. But gearing it seems rough.

Especially for MG

[hasty monolith]

Im playing lich this season for the first time, and im having a blast outside of it feels a bit bland,

[vivid valve]

Gotta get 2lp uniques for that build

10mill each or more

[balmy void]

Ew merchant

[vivid valve]

Yeah mg is cooked

[balmy void]

Tried it, hated it lol

But it's good we have both

[vivid valve]

I should have gone cof

[balmy void]

I have no idea which is best, but CoF is more fun for sure

And fun is good

[vivid valve]

Cof seems better atm

[hasty monolith]

I have only played SSF and i havent been at the point where i felt i needed to be able to trade with someone to get gear

[vivid valve]

But I'll try this build out today and see how it goes with 0 LP. I'm guessing disaster

Lich really needs lp

[hasty monolith]

ye but most items work with +1

[vivid valve]

For HP and Crit

Some 1lp are stupid expensive too but I'll try and see if I can find

Lich really needs hp and crit DMG rolls and a lot of uniques

[hasty monolith]

I have gotten almost all items needed for it and im lvl 97

[vivid valve]

Slammed

[cedar crane]

meh im either quitting or rerolling

this feels like ass

[vivid valve]

What build

[cedar crane]

too many buttons and way too reliant on es/leech rather then actual defense

[hasty monolith]

me?

[cedar crane]

Infernal shade crit lich

[vivid valve]

Oof

That was my plan too

[cedar crane]

i actively need to piano all 5 buttons, i ain't about that life

[vivid valve]

I might not bother continuing then

[cedar crane]

1 button builds are where it's is

[vivid valve]

What gear do you have atm, you using the pet chest

[cedar crane]

nah i don't have anything

[vivid valve]

Oh not even gloves?

[cedar crane]

I got to empowered monos with cthonic fissure infernal shade

and swapped

[vivid valve]

Are you MG

[elfin lodge]

Is there a relic I can put this on that I can target farm?

[cedar crane]

CoS

[vivid valve]

I bought the stuff I need for it but have not respecced yet

Lp0 tho

Lich is quite legendary gear dependant

[bold hatch]

I ran infernal shade crit lich from like level 60 onward

[vivid valve]

That's why I kinda feel like farming on a vk first

[vivid valve]

Did it go well?

[bold hatch]

Didn’t feel good until getting the gloves and good rings

But it was doable

[vivid valve]

Ahh. What rings?

[bold hatch]

I like the more active play style

[vivid valve]

Putri?

[bold hatch]

Yep. Super important

[cedar crane]

eh, if im farming monos for hours I want something easy

not a piano build

[vivid valve]

What is the rotation

I have the two putri, the gloves, and the chest. No wrong warp yet but I can buy. All lp0 tho

Soon lp1 maybe

[bold hatch]

I play on controller so I can just hold down transplant for wrong warp and infernal shade most the time

[hasty monolith]

Stygian Coal Lich is pretty chill, but i would prolly play DoT Warlock

[bold hatch]

Hit death seal on cooldown

[cedar crane]

I might just go back to overload warlock

even though I felt like trash, was better than my current situation

[bold hatch]

Don’t really need to ever cast zombies anymore

[vivid valve]

So I got to use transplant and seal on CD?

I'm gonna give it a go with all lp0 and see how it goes. If I like it I'll farm for lp1 gold

Tormented heart or vessel?

I might be able to afford one of those

[obtuse quest]

Lich and rollercoaster life bars go hand in hand.

[vivid valve]

Or maybe an exalted relic with crit and HP stuff

And +shades

[bold hatch]

Yeah plus levels is big

[finite galleon]

@obtuse quest Kzb sama, hear me out: We can first summon 3 types of wraiths, then unequip whatever helmet we were using, equip Wraithlord helmet, summon a Big Wraith, then channel abomination. Testing shows that both the extra type and the +13 minion melee damage works (coincidentally wraithlord helmet is the best snapshot helmet, much better than the measly amount of intelligence found on other commonly used snapshot helmets)

Is this based?

Is this where you pat my head and say good job?

[vivid valve]

Do you have a planner

[bold hatch]

Nope. Just going off of this https://youtu.be/r1O2xXdQU-Q?si=MPGKTrXzd9oybKME

[finite galleon]

???????????????????

You are not the kzb I know and love

FeelsBadMan

[obtuse quest]

Serious answer: sounds like some overcooked snapshotting, if it works it’ll be damn hilarious.

[charred oasis]

is there anyway to stop wraithlord to consume other minions ?

[obtuse quest]

You mean make him not consume minions? Don’t have any minions. It’s baked into it’s AI

[charred oasis]

hmm no i want to combine wraithlord with other minions, that is not the point.

[obtuse quest]

Then no. It’s built into it’s AI.

No way around it.

[charred oasis]

meh

[autumn mango]

Using wraithlord w blood infusion and dread shade and ward from wandering spirits channel any tips

It’s fun

[obtuse quest]

Wandering spirits probably isn’t doing any damage tbh

[glass sigil]

Have you tried new unique item of wandering spirits

[autumn mango]

In using it for the ward channel

[obtuse quest]

Fair.

[obtuse quest]

Nope, seems kinda just okay from my theory check

[balmy void]

Would you say Chaos Bolt is superior to Hungering Souls for a DoT necrotic build?

More damned stack, less dps

[red harness]

man I keep dying in maps

i need more hp

[obtuse quest]

Yes.

Shotguns without a unique and is an aoe

[balmy void]

Fair

[vivid valve]

How do I target farm gear, the video of lich guide he says getting a wrong warp is easy. How so?

Also says 2lp mantle is super easy to farm

But I have no clue how to do that

[fallow juniper]

any good leveling necromancer build guides

[tropic bobcat]

What has been the consensus so far regarding https://maxroll.gg/last-epoch/build-guides/stygian-coal-lich-guide vs https://maxroll.gg/last-epoch/build-guides/death-seal-lich-guide ? Is stygian better at endgame or the opposite?

[obtuse quest]

Stygian is better if you can get the setup for it.

[tropic bobcat]

Hmm, might transition for it then. Why is it better though, want to understand the fundamentals so i can build correctly

[inland scaffold]

Hello everyone, I'm new to LE and minions ; can anyone explain why my Minion crit chance isn't raising, and is stuck at 14%, despite stacking minion crit chance in my tree and stuff?

[obtuse quest]

Coal has a few scaling methods insstead of just damage. Int gives a % more modifer instead of just % inc and max mana increases fire rate.

[old hull]

If you're getting crit chance for specific skills/minions/types, that won't show on the character sheet. Only global stats show there

[bright swift]

Also the increase is a percentual of the percentual

+60% is 60% of the base 5%

Meaning it's only an increase of 3%

[inland scaffold]

Oh, okay, so like, you need a LOT of crit to actually increase the chances to crit

this why when I grab a point in heresy it doesn't change anything

[obtuse quest]

OR find a method to gain +% flat crit chance, like with Phantom Grip

[bright swift]

Yeah a 5% increase of 5% is really little

[inland scaffold]

So those point are kinda bait then?

[bright swift]

No, int is good

[obtuse quest]

Less bait when you got the source for crit

[inland scaffold]

Yes int is good but I could go for Int and ward instead if 10 point in this only give me 2% global chance to crit I feel like

[bright swift]

At 10 points it's +2.5% base which is good too

[solemn mountain]

do anyone knows if this https://maxroll.gg/last-epoch/planner/90hrn00a#4 still good build?

[inland scaffold]

But I got my answer so thanks a lot!

[bright swift]

I mean, max you can reach is like 25%

[inland scaffold]

Thanks

[tropic bobcat]

Ok, defensively is pretty much identical to normal death seal lich then? Endurance and leech?

Seems like a pretty easy pivot

[obtuse quest]

Yup, just gotta get the offensive pieces

[tropic bobcat]

Thanks for the help!

[chrome mason]

coalmaxxing

[solemn mountain]

is any minion build for this season u guys recomend

[obtuse quest]

I will now redirect all coal related questions to you if you’re online

[chrome mason]

i am now coal man

[whole igloo]

played it but archmage not dealing so much dmg than wraithlord

[cedar crane]

@obtuse quest Hey, you mentioned earlier a chaos bolt build. Is it any good? is there any relevant link you can send to elaborate on it?

[autumn mango]

Is it easier to get ward or health @ level 70

[foggy patrol]

health, you really have to get ward rolls on half your gear to make it nice

[autumn mango]

I have 1k health at the moment, all my pieces are minion crit and damage
Is this low at my level? @foggy patrol

[foggy patrol]

70 that sounds fine, just start hunting more defense, save/shatter ward rolled gear

[autumn mango]

Okay ima go health

Thanks mate

[foggy patrol]

I didn't really start noticing I needed to focus on def till 90 monos, but gear drops with ward everywhere

[autumn mango]

% health over base yea?

[vivid valve]

Damn the infernal shade guy is chill farming 1400corr

But his gear is great

[chrome mason]

link?

[vivid valve]

He said it on the interview https://youtu.be/l3jGckpacr0?si=gi1pVNvHS-mZTZGF

I might go COF that stuff will now probably be unobtainable on mg

[obtuse quest]

Damn I can’t find any.

[obtuse quest]

Both, % first if you have to choose

[rare quail]

Still waiting to find a wraithlord helm

[vivid valve]

I'm just curious about the rotation on shade lich. When do I use Seal?

[autumn mango]

Got it at 65

[vivid valve]

Spamming CD?

[rare quail]

Nice

[autumn mango]

Can I upgrade the level later on since I got it early ?

[vital cave]

so yall playing infernal shade or what is the best performing acolyte skill rn?

[crisp ridge]

think of it as a dmg buff

[vivid valve]

Seems like it will be crit infernal shade lich . But it needs gear to work

[rare quail]

Getting better uniques is finding ones with higher legendary potential and then 🧱 instead

[vivid valve]

Same with lich form? Or does that stay up

[crisp ridge]

lich form stays up

where possible anyway

[topaz marlin]

@ Minion leech nodes like (Summon Skeleton) [Marrow Tap] or (Skeleton Mage) [Leech Life]; does it mean it leeches life for itself or for u as well?

[foggy patrol]

A mix is good yeah

[pallid flint]

Anyone that is running a torment build? And if so, how high corruption are you able to push?

[hardy sapphire]

wouldnt it say something like "...leeched to you..." if it healed you instead of the minions?

[topaz marlin]

unfortunately it's kinda vague? It just says "leech as health" so I'm currently assuming leech for itself, but I'm still unsure

[crisp ridge]

itself

[vivid valve]

Why are his infernal zombies going on CD

I thought it had no CD

[topaz marlin]

alright thanks!

[crisp ridge]

top left node, adds to pack but adds cd

[vivid valve]

Ohhhh

[topaz marlin]

is there a way they can leech for u?

[bold hatch]

Pretty much, but you also need to be kind of selective with it so you have it available for rares

[vivid valve]

Ok nice.

That build looks so damn cool can't wait to try

[bold hatch]

Yeah it’s super fun and seems really powerful

I would watch that video on his progression though especially if you only have 20 skill points. You need to pick the right nodes or it will be bricked

[old hull]

No. There are some uniques that give health on minion hit at pretty low amounts, but that's about as close as it gets.

[vivid valve]

Yeah only issue with that build seems to need insane gear

[foggy patrol]

better off grabbing regen/ward

[vivid valve]

As MG it's a lost cause maybe.

Especially since I'm behind

[bold hatch]

I think the gloves and two putri rings is enough to get you there

I don’t have the boots or belt yet

[vivid valve]

How will I get plus to shade

[crisp ridge]

just a relic exalt

[bold hatch]

Yeah

I'll see how much those are

Dr3ad was talking to a lich guy who was outleveling his leagestarter's ability to swap out of warlock, ended up just making a second char to play lich lol

they nerfed respec cost since

[vivid valve]

Can that turn lp0 into lp2

[crisp ridge]

u can remove health decay from dread shade right?

for minions

Yes.

Ailment damage doesn't scale with spell damage right, does mad alchemist's ladel work well with Dr3adful's "everything warlock" build that wants to scale with all purpose dot damage?

ty

[obtuse quest]

No, unless the ailment is a spell (Like torment.)

[ivory kernel]

I havent played in a while. is the old bug with spirit plague's laceration node still there? the one where it wont scale with anything except bleed pen from the tree

[wise basalt]

What's better for wraithlord, minion mana damage or normal minion damage

[marble palm]

What?

[acoustic fjord]

Yeah, I think that build's damage come from multiple sources, all four types of ailment overloads, infernal shade, spirit plague and bone curse.

[obtuse quest]

Yup.

It's basically "Everything Warlock" but improved.

[wise basalt]

I meant mana damage

Na I meant spell

Wtf

[whole igloo]

xD NANI

[charred echo]

whoa, so using the warlord's riches node lets you go up to a theoretical +8 to whatever skill you want, bc it let me hit fissure on the seal and the normal affix roll. Mad interesting

[obtuse quest]

Known "bug" of the imprint system.

[fading topaz]

So is this season Lich > Necromancer > Warlock, havent been back for a long time dont know which to choose

[obtuse quest]

It's still Warlock>Necro>Lich, Lich just got new builds.

[exotic topaz]

I'm loving necro

[fading topaz]

any good Warlock build to start with?

[wise basalt]

I'm loving wraithlord

[tropic bobcat]

In stygian coal lich I assume if you cast two drain lifes they dont stack right, instead you refresh the duration of the first?

[obtuse quest]

Torment still works.

[obtuse quest]

You'll make a new instance and remove the old one.

[tropic bobcat]

Yeap figured, ty

[gentle relic]

So in the video guide on maxroll showing a corruption 1k run was when two+ instances could be active at the same time?

[bold hatch]

Pretty sure. Weaver tree is awesome. You imprint what you want to get more drops of it, run nemesis towers to egg it, then run the turtle to reroll your bad eggs either getting better LP or going back to 0 to be able to egg it again

[hardy sapphire]

nearing the last nodes on the echo thingy place at end of time. How badly am i about to hit a brick wall? 😄

[foggy patrol]

better get good at dodging

[hardy sapphire]

good thing thats the only direct input my build requires 😄

[tropic bobcat]

Btw why use laddle instead of marina's?

[obtuse quest]

The old one takes about a second to fade.

[obtuse quest]

the % more damage.

[hardy sapphire]

jesuschrist.... Havent even taken a look at my gear since havent had any trouble so far.... I am sure items like this one are 100% carrying my pure minion build 😄

[tropic bobcat]

ok ty

[hardy sapphire]

I want to cap all resistances at 75%+? Even physical?

[crisp ridge]

ideally yes

[pearl snow]

Physical isn’t just melee

[hardy sapphire]

good thing i have like 4-6 item slots that are basically empty due to having so shit items that i dont even benefit from them 😄

[marble palm]

Especially physical I would say

Unless you have a lot of armour then I guess you can prioritise other resistances first

But ideally you want to cap all anyway

[obtuse quest]

You'll want to hit 60+% at least.

[dusky ember]

Coming again with same question, am i missing something about this lone watcher? feeling dumb trying to find this

nvm

found why lol

[obtuse quest]

Lone watcher converts health drain to increased damage taken

[little yarrow]

man I cannot get acolyte idols

[foggy patrol]

I had to emphasize to make sure I didn't miss them

[dusky ember]

didnt read dying light whole description, that this affects friendly minions as well

[obtuse quest]

Lmao

[little yarrow]

maybe I hid them 🤔

I mean I am getting idols

just not any acolyte idols

[foggy patrol]

eh just add one up top to show

[little yarrow]

wdym

[foggy patrol]

sec I'll log in and make one

[little yarrow]

I think it's just the low odds

getting 2 out of 8

3% chance to get it if it's an acolyte idol

[little yarrow]

I mean it works

I put in 7 more affixes

[foggy patrol]

if it's at the top, it overrides lower rules

[little yarrow]

so now it's like 7% chances to get one

[eternal cave]

Does Warlock have difficulty in applying poison? I'm haven't seen the overload appear

[crisp ridge]

have u specd anything to poison?

e.g ur fissure

[eternal cave]

Just plague and some on-hit affix

[crisp ridge]

thatll be why

[eternal cave]

Guess that is not enough

[crisp ridge]

overload needs 25+ stacks around you on cast

so you need either good chance to poison, or spec some of ur abilities into poison

[little yarrow]

nvm

[crisp ridge]

wack, i thought u were right

why is that one diff lmao

[eternal cave]

I thought the passive + onhit + plague (both plague bearer and poison) would be enough

[obtuse quest]

Plague doesn't count as a poison stack.

You need normal poison

[eternal cave]

When doing an overload build, what gets spec'd into poison?

[obtuse quest]

You got a few options, wandering, fissure, enough poison on hit...

[eternal cave]

I guess since I'm using infernal I don't needs fissure for fire/ignite

[foggy patrol]

more is better

[eternal cave]

I'll give it some thought. On the flip side, is Pestilence regarded as good?

[little yarrow]

but IDK if bleed+poison overload are worth it

it's just 6% more dmg from the passive

though overload lets you scale poisons since they pen I guess

but you still don't apply many

[eternal cave]

Pen won't matter if I can't get it to overload anyway

And that requires changing a few things rather than one

[little yarrow]

I am building mine as witchfire-focused

I can't scale damned or any other ailment meaningfully
except ignite though I guess

[obtuse quest]

Yes, it's a generic DoT buff that you can even upkeep by just spamming spirit plague

[eternal cave]

We're similar but I skipped Witchfire and went into Vessel of Chaos for overload

[crisp ridge]

why you going pois if going witchfire?

[little yarrow]

not doing poison

[eternal cave]

I am trying to figure out poison and not doing Witchfire.

[crisp ridge]

oh got peeps mixed up, mbmb

u just seal bad affixs or good ones if u want to rng a really good item

thinkin defences are too low but idk how wraithlord dmg feels so thatll be adjusted once i try it

Are +level to infernal shade mods on relics extremely rare or am I just unlucky? I have not found a single one yet

[pearl snow]

I think the +levels are uncommon or something

[mighty tiger]

Yes, overall they all are, but I have yet to see infernal shade drop at all

I have a handful of the others

[slate pond]

quite common imo

[obtuse quest]

Why are you using scalesssssssss

[pearl snow]

He is Anubis

[obtuse quest]

Hank no! Don't make the beginner mistake of not reading! HANK!

[pearl snow]

Oh wait thats the 1 shade maximum

[crisp ridge]

idk, seemed fun

is it bad?

[obtuse quest]

Sir, that locks you to one shade total.

Not one of each.

ONE.

[pearl snow]

1

[crisp ridge]

oh, 😂

[pearl snow]

Uno

[slate pond]

How would you target farm +4 wrath body armour? Rune of havoc seems quite rare, prophecies for exalted armours?

[obtuse quest]

Hankkkk

[crisp ridge]

thats kinda sad but oh well

[obtuse quest]

Anyway I don't see any major issues otherwise.

[pearl snow]

Prophecies yep

[crisp ridge]

sweet, guess ill swap out the weapon to something.

[slate pond]

anything in the weaver tree?

[pearl snow]

Make sure your loot filter doesn’t restrict the showing of it

[crisp ridge]

exalts from sources are nice

[pearl snow]

I guess you could throw in a body armor with +wraith in weaver yeah?

Exalted from champs etc

Nemesis has a chance to upgrade tiers

[crisp ridge]

also loot lizards and making then more common

[pearl snow]

Loot lizard tree

Is so fun

Lol

[crisp ridge]

frfr

[pearl snow]

But I think better targeted drops would be champ & nemsis

If you have a spare +3 it wouldnt be bad to put that in one of those target drop slots

[obtuse quest]

I just play targetted drops and nemesis spam

[slate pond]

I got one +3 from nemesis already

[pearl snow]

Nice, now pray for better

All hail Weaver

I finally got Witchfire relic after nearly 50+ unique relic drops. Im free now

[crisp ridge]

rekon u could power up nemesis' through tree then use the weaver echo?

[slate pond]

btw, conquered tower in woven riches feels so good

[pearl snow]

Time to drop it for flame whip like a child

[crisp ridge]

i went dry for it -> grabbed prophecies -> got 7 in about 3min

[obtuse quest]

The nemesis tower?

[crisp ridge]

yea

[pearl snow]

“Conquered Tower”

Woven echo

[crisp ridge]

wonder if u could get good items that way

[pearl snow]

You get a tower map with like 8 of them

I have it randomly spawn now

[crisp ridge]

using witchfire against exiled mage tower + fully ppwered exileds was hilarious

[slate pond]

btw, regarding +4 armour, found this nod on the top

[obtuse quest]

Yup. It's FUN

I slapped it on both woven echo slots LMAO

[pearl snow]

Not a bad one too

[crisp ridge]

go do exiled mage tower or gurantee one per tomb and farm them

[slate pond]

yeah, just picked all nodes on the top for exiled mages

[crisp ridge]

go do exiled mage tower and acticate them all at once, thats what i did 😂

Watch any build guide where they are doing over 1000c it's almost always cof player

CoF is best for most things because you don’t need to gold sink specific items. However for people who are used to buying items via PoE etc. market may be an easier time. Although I think gearing with CoF is more rewarding

No.

[hardy sapphire]

does that increase the cast speed of fire wraiths?

they cast instead of attack, right?

[crisp ridge]

its cast speed of the spell

Guys, this just boosts YOUR cast speed of infernal shade.

[crisp ridge]

not the buff

is last step boots better then blood of the exile?

if you play ward than I would go for last steps

[obtuse quest]

Melee?

[wide bronze]

yea im running ecolyte and Exsanguinous

[frail ridge]

It should since Stygian Beams have the scaling tags of Necrotic and Spell.

Anyone here free to help me with my loot filter in a voice channel?
Tried asking on #❔┃ask-the-community but no one is responding.

[rich frigate]

How does this work with Chaos Bolt proc'ing the Bone Cruse? Does each Chaos Bolt hit apply 1 Bone Curse to each enemy hit?

Or it means I can only have 1 instance of bone curse active at a time?

[hasty monolith]

tyty

[delicate belfry]

coal lich or fissure lock?

[rich frigate]

Both are cool. I prefer Fissure myself

[delicate belfry]

what will probably perform better in late endgame

[hasty monolith]

Coal lich

[rich frigate]

Fissure for speed farming, Coal for bossing

I'd guess

[wide bronze]

not bad so far

[rich frigate]

Does anyone tried this before? ;\

[crisp ridge]

id assume youd constantly overwrite who has bone curse

[obtuse quest]

It casts on a single random enemy per proc.

Bone Curse's proc from Chaos Bolt is a cast.

[rich frigate]

But does it mean 1 global instance of the curse? (like, if I hit 2 enemies, only 1 will have the curse at a time)

[obtuse quest]

Just 1, yup.

[rich frigate]

Crap

[slate pond]

any good ideas what to put here? I have "conquered tower", really nice once it procs

[hasty monolith]

W slam

[foggy patrol]

yeah, no fully dead affixes

[little yarrow]

Downfall of the Righteous
where art thou

[rich frigate]

Not trying to pick on you, just FYI, I just asked on the ask-devs to make sure and it seems it can be applied to multiple enemies, once per cast.
I too thought it was a 1 global instance limit, glad it's not

Mike's message:

It applies to 1 enemy per cast. There isn't a mechanism by which we can restrict the total stacks of an ailment which you have applied across all enemies.

Thank you for answering tho

[delicate belfry]

I dont see any Uber aberroth kills yet as acolyte?

[obtuse quest]

OH, you thought only one instance.

No, it's just one target per cast

I guess I didn't make that clear.

[foggy patrol]

I saw normal done with Lich but nothing Uber yet

[wise basalt]

Is armor useful or just health etc?

Feel like setting up Abom Lich looks easy

[rich frigate]

Nah, mb I guess, english is not my native language

Yea, I was worrying it would be a "boss exclusive" node or something, but if I can apply 1 per enemy in a pack then it's nice

he had some theorycraft he was gonna do not sure if he was gonna do uber with it or not

[wise basalt]

[wintry flame]

but every class can likely do the boss it's just gonna take a lot of practice/skill @vivid valve but yea some classes OP in the sense they can cheese via dmg or tankiness and not really do mechanics

[vivid valve]

I wanted to try out Abom Necro

[wintry flame]

Abom good, snapshotting sucks

[vivid valve]

I don't mind 😂

[wintry flame]

I'd snapshot rogues for mono farming or literally anything else with better clear 😛

[vivid valve]

Is there a guide for that build

[crisp ridge]

normal abberoth sure, uber for most is deffo not achieveable

[wintry flame]

watch Raiz if he is streaming still he is playing abom to kill uber on hc

[vivid valve]

Ok thx

Yeah I know rogue is godly but I like necro and lich theme lol

[wintry flame]

it is, every class has killed uber solo. Should watch Liz's Marksman kill

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OOIg3-m8rGk

like this is how the fight should be

[wintry flame]

I meant skele rogues not rogue class

[crisp ridge]

i think the 0.0001% of players being able to kill it isnt a good indicator for "everything can do it"

[wintry flame]

I meant everything as in class

not build

there I fixed it 🙂

[vivid valve]

Oh shit lol

Ok I'm watching that guy damn Abom is a beast

I like that lazy stuff lol

[crisp ridge]

oh yea, atleast 1 in each class can do(mage probably being the sketchiest)

[vivid valve]

Other than snap shotting sometimes

Is there a guide for Abom build and what gear to snapshot

[wintry flame]

you can watch his vod to see what he has otherwise look at maxroll

he uses plague on hit idols to boost clear

[vivid valve]

Ahh crap two red rings. Nevermind

I'm on MG that will take months

[wintry flame]

that for defenses look at the prior planner

[vivid valve]

Should I swap to COF?

[wintry flame]

yeah CoF is nice for target farming even red rings

[vivid valve]

Hmmm ok

I was planning on going Abom to farm for infernal shade build. But the Abom build is more expensive I didn't realize lol

[rough peak]

is warlocm a bad mastery or am i just ass at building

[crisp ridge]

the latter

[slate pond]

is abom overall better than wraithlord?

[rough peak]

should i use a guide?

[crisp ridge]

u dont have to

[rough peak]

im ass ass then

god damn

[vivid valve]

I need a good farming build that doesn't require insane gear

I'm behind

[crisp ridge]

ur build may have issue, asking for help might be useful.

im going gym so i personally cant help

but i used witchfire warlock to 400corr and it was very not-good

[vivid valve]

I'm thinking maybe I just go VK

Cut my losses

[rough peak]

idk what any of that means

but im bout to sleep for work tn ill fix my build then

[crisp ridge]

gl

[pearl snow]

Dont call me out like this

[vivid valve]

Seems like acolyte is more advanced and you need good gear

[crisp ridge]

if im around tommorow, when u need help, im happy to review it

[rough peak]

food gear huh

[crisp ridge]

😂

[rough peak]

i do have a spoon as a weapon

[crisp ridge]

laddle is good

[pearl snow]

Buulding something to tackle base Empowered Monos should be fine

Beyond that you may need to make real changes lol

[rough peak]

i have the alchemist ladle

not the mad alchemist

idk what monos is btw

[pearl snow]

Either is still solid for initial use. Obviously the mad alch one has better scaling

Monoliths

[rough peak]

im still doin story shit

[pearl snow]

OH

Then I’m sure we can fix things up easy

[crisp ridge]

oh then u shouldnt even worry yet

[rough peak]

im lvl 46 on my warlock rn

55 on falcon shit

i shoulda focused one tbh

[pearl snow]

If you are struggling hard on normal mobs then you’d definitely have some scaling mismatches

[rough peak]

oh im not struggling but when i did the falcon build it just felt way stronger than my warlock build

[pearl snow]

Me and Quo have enough brainpower in our smooth Witchfire brains to help

[crisp ridge]

p aure that early u can just focus on torment/damned and youll be fine

[crisp ridge]

witchfire was honestly way better than i expected it to be. very fun too

[rough peak]

what times are yall usually on

[pearl snow]

Yeah same, I gotta update my CB guide I think its overtaking hybrid bleed ignite

I’ll be on for the next 12 hours now

[vivid valve]

What is echo juicing

[pearl snow]

Well around

[rough peak]

cool

ima get some sleep then

[pearl snow]

Juicing refers to the ability to force more things to spawn or get in an echo

[crisp ridge]

its 2am for me, im generally not on now lmao

[rough peak]

when i get to work i can hop on and redo my build

[pearl snow]

Its a term coined from other arpgs

Map juicing from poe

[rough peak]

oce?

[crisp ridge]

aus yea

[pearl snow]

Wow me Kzb and Quovss are a perfect cycle

[rough peak]

i see i see

[pearl snow]

Lol

[rough peak]

2 pm for me rn

[pearl snow]

Eastern gamer

[rough peak]

but i work overnights and usually play at work

so its like

im really one of yall

[pearl snow]

Generally you’d juice by forcing champion spawns, nemesis spawns, lizards etc. try to cram them all in at high spawn rates

[little yarrow]

LOL

the game was like - you want your relic? HERE'S THREE

[pearl snow]

Big

[obtuse quest]

Give me one, mine’s ass

[little yarrow]

only one is 1 LP

[crisp ridge]

im still convinced witchfire would be way better if overloads wernt terrible

[obtuse quest]

0lp means I can egg that thing still

[little yarrow]

this?

[crisp ridge]

also, did anyone ever get a good spine of malmatros build working?

17% + 49%, yikes

[obtuse quest]

Okay that’s godamn OOF

[crisp ridge]

luckily u can reroll them

managed to reroll mine to like a combined 130%

[little yarrow]

what is considered "in combat"?

[foggy patrol]

I'm gonna guess either you attacking or enemies attacking

[little yarrow]

aha

[wise basalt]

Is it normal that my wraithlord does like 30k less damage in corruption 100 when I'm level 81?

Is it because of my level or is the defense of the enemies just so much higher in corruption?

[crisp ridge]

30k less than what?

[wise basalt]

I usually did 30-50k on level 90 monos and now at corruption 100 I only do like 10k

[slate pond]

i didnt experience loss of that much dmg (looking at yellow crits), feels the same, maybe slightly worse

[wintry flame]

mobs have scaling DR

and also modifiers on echoes?

[slate pond]

but not way down to 10k

[wise basalt]

Yeah I dunno, it's crazy, literally 20-40k less than level 90 monos wtf

[wintry flame]

do you have any modifiers?

[wise basalt]

Okay wtf it's back to normal in the next

[wintry flame]

like endurance, less dmg to high health, or resistances

yeah sounds like you had modifiers

[wise basalt]

I didn't see any modifiers that increases enemy health or defense

[slate pond]

than it was mono mods

[wintry flame]

either that or resistant mobs to necrotic dmg or something

[wise basalt]

Or dread shade didn't work lol

I dunno it was weird

Maybe a bug

Because I was doing exactly the damage I would do without the shade

Okay corruption 100 and I'm one hitting everything again, man I was so scared

[vivid valve]

I hope once I put on my lich gear and respec it doesn't suck lol

Otherwise I'll just go do oblivion remaster. Don't feel like doing Sentinel

[wintry flame]

since my skele rogue build can't do uber I think I'm rerolling MM guys 😛 tired of snapshotting to get 14mil+ dps on rogues 😛

[crisp ridge]

dont respec if u dont have decent gear alrdy

[vivid valve]

Isn't 14 mill a lot

[wintry flame]

yes

[slate pond]

cant wait to switch to stationary wraithlord, I hate when he starts running in cycles while there is a lot to do

[vivid valve]

I barely have a spec at all ATM it's just trash tbh

I want to go into a real build

But I'm broke

[wintry flame]

I can kill boss dummy in like 1:10 and it has 1bil hp

[vivid valve]

So no Acolyte build cam do Uber?

[wintry flame]

abom can with snapshot

sygian coal lich can

[vivid valve]

Ohh nice

[wintry flame]

warlock uh idk

[slate pond]

wraithlord cant?

[vivid valve]

I'll try abomination later today if I can afford the gear. I don't feel like rerolling faction

[crisp ridge]

has someone done it?

[wintry flame]

haven't seen it or heard of it being done

[wintry flame]

lizard and I thought someone here said they did

[crisp ridge]

ik someone jere did regular

[wintry flame]

Lizard went over every build for each class that can/has done uber

on stream likea bit ago

[crisp ridge]

link to tht?

[wise basalt]

This was the mono

I guess it really was a bug and dread shade just didn't work for whatever reason

[wintry flame]

one sec

he did it yesterday he gonna get me the vod time

[vivid valve]

I guess coal lich is just very hard to get going due to gear

[wintry flame]

https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2438846556 36:23

@crisp ridge ^

[finite galleon]

Noice

[little yarrow]

clearing out 9 tabs worth of items

[crisp ridge]

tyvm

[wintry flame]

mhm

[vivid valve]

Should I only do coal lich once I have 2lp of weapon and offhand

[finite galleon]

Hmm I have a bunch of obsolete items too with the new patch, but aintnoway i'm ever gonna sort through those

[vivid valve]

If I ever do

[rotund junco]

Hi guys, im playing necromancer. Is there any good loot filter ? i just finished campaign

[crisp ridge]

basically make ur own or use a generic

ur filter depends on the gear u want

[rapid cloud]

Are there any Abom builds that give my Abom access to all its skills? c:

[finite galleon]

All its skills as in arrow nova, double slap, stomp, necrotic slap, tail slam, and the spell thingy?

[rapid cloud]

Yee

[finite galleon]

Are you uhh, are you aware that

they kind of interfere with each other? (esp when it comes to the animation of the abomination)

ig if you're doing it for fun

[little yarrow]

is this global chance to ignite?

[finite galleon]

Grab a bunch of + skills thingy. I think the highest you can get to is level 37 abom? (Not entirely sure, but abom definitely don't gain tags like some of the other minions do.) Anyway you gotta either sacrifice some better snapshotting equipments, or or multiplicative nodes, to grab every "new move" type of node.

Make sure to avoid grabbing flesh and blood out of muscle memory

And then uhh, you summon it, and slap on whatever you usually wear, and call it a day

the mage ability is particularly detrimental, but oh well

[fast crystal]

how does "Awakening Presence" chance work when used with "Dreadful hope"? does the 30% to summon on minion death become 30-10? or what

[wintry flame]

no it's 30% chance to summon on death and then 10% chance that it summons more than 1 zombie

[crisp ridge]

i feel like dreadful is direct cast no?

tho it doesnt mention it

[wintry flame]

it is but they were asking about the proc from minion death I believe not casting it, cause it will just spawn 3 zombies

[rapid cloud]

@finite galleon So skills dont cap at 30? Someone told me they did :o

[pearl snow]

Yes for any hits your character does

[fast crystal]

🧑‍🔬 interesting

[little yarrow]

but is it global for Grimhilde's domain (witchfire node)?

[pearl snow]

No that is not a hit

Dot spreading / proliferation isnt a hit

It would apply to the skill you are using

[wide bronze]

https://www.lastepochtools.com/planner/A8nEMd4B isn't Last Steps of the Living boots here for these build here?

Keeper's Wraithlord Necromancer Build Guide by keeper184

[little yarrow]

no I mean it wouldn't apply with witchfire

but would it increase its damage?

this

[pearl snow]

Yes to both

[little yarrow]

so global chance is either "chance to damn/ignite on hit", or "chance to damn/ignite"? any other wording makes it non-global right?

[pearl snow]

Basically yeah

[compact sorrel]

how to get current health lost per sec on gloves? by killing exiled mages?

[little yarrow]

oh, and is witchfire per second or over 12 seconds?

600 + 600 over 12, or per 1s x12s ?

[pearl snow]

Id have to read the tooltip again I forgor

[pearl snow]

Yes

[wide bronze]

are Last Steps of the Living better then Blood of the Exile?

if ur building alot of ward

like whats even good on Blood of the Exile

apart from move speed

[wintry flame]

stats

[wide bronze]

what stats

[wintry flame]

it's good for tankier setup if you go regen

[wide bronze]

dex str? xd

[wintry flame]

it has int too

[finite galleon]

yeah, for red ring purposes

[wintry flame]

and str is % armor

and yeah stats for red ring

[finite galleon]

wait lemme get a screenshot

[wide bronze]

what if im running Turquoise Ring?

is living ones better?

[wintry flame]

run low life

[wide bronze]

for example here

wouldn't living be better?

[wintry flame]

probably

[crisp ridge]

u can go them if u want, both are useable

just a case of stats v ward gen

[wide bronze]

yea im getting wey more ward with living

[wintry flame]

defensively better offensively and speed wise worse

[wide bronze]

okii

[finite galleon]

@rapid cloud

[rapid cloud]

Ah, sweet

[finite galleon]

@wintry flame Zeckar senpai, I've been obsessed with snapshotting. I think I spent more time practising snapshotting than actually doing stuff today.

In particular I've been enthralled by the idea of

[wintry flame]

it's fun when you see the results but man it's tiring

[finite galleon]

relying on one point of "4% to summon a skeleton vanguard upon minion death" in the Necro passive tree to get skeleton vanguard as the extra type, rather than the guaranteed vanguard upon abom's death. since that means I can take another route to a further node and gaining an insignificant amount of stats in the process

The result in my case is a lot of rage quits

OMEGALUL

but then I log on and start repeating the same process again. definition of insanity

[wintry flame]

I had 3 sets of gear and I was trying to balance my abom's hp and regen to make him stay alive but still give me dread shade effect lmaoo

[wise basalt]

So I'm lvl 82 and doing corrupted 100 and my lord kills everything super fast but I also die fast

I guess the only way to survive is to abuse the ward system right?

[wintry flame]

the build you're following is glass cannon I believe

[open forum]

guys why is my stygian coal only hit 1 mob but not around me like i see on the video ?

[finite galleon]

As in make it stable at low hp for the increased dread shade buff effect? That would be nasty if you can somehow get it to work

[wise basalt]

Yeah pretty much

I mean when I'm using wasd and dodge and being sweaty I can dodge most of the stuff but some random AOE from a champion can kill me easily lol

[wintry flame]

yeah, I did but it's still not enough to tank stuff for like abby

good for mapping tho

[wintry flame]

either get more damage or fix defenses somehow

[finite galleon]

You are a true scientist

[wintry flame]

I use a teleport ring to move the stationary abom around lmao I could probs do the fight like that but it's so hard
