![]() ![]() I have been running variations of this build since… a few versions back as well…In any case the physical/fire retal version was nerfed rather hard early which prompted the change to acid… which kept on getting buffed. The only reason why this build does not do well (relative to other well known top builds) in cruci and SR is because this build goes all in on two broken mechanics (RtA and passthrough WPS) but misses out on everything else, mainly lifesteal and the fact that it fumbles.ĭidnt know there was a hardcore community that had this build. Looking at that data above this build has the highest single target dps among most retal builds (hellborne does better in terms of percentage but your retal sucks cause no shield) and maybe even among most builds including top melee builds. Usual RF retal melee does something from 36 to 90% per second. Pre nerf turrion bwc (16% RtA) gets 256% per second at 12/12 bwc but that needs time to stack bwc pools. grasping vines build also outputs around 70% per second. Compare this to stuff like zucc retal DE in my build I estimate only 70% retal damage per second. So with the attack speed on the GT link, you get around 253% retal damage pet second. This build can output around 76% retal damage per attack on average. It’s like Vire’s Cascade, except it doesn’t have a cooldown. I think the reason this works is cause every single WPS has 27% RtA from RF, so things like Storm Spread can shotgun with RtA from 4 projectiles. Which is a bad thing if you are playing hardcore. ![]() You will indubitably get over confident using this build. I’d suggest using potions in both of those stress tests as it is possible to RIP under “right” circumstances. Toughness is adequate for HC due to overall decent defensive stats, some life steal, the seal. The aoe is decent thanks to multiple procs and the gun (100% chance to pass through enemies). As is, this build has very little competition in the bossing department. But I will leave this for your guys to experiment and refine if that’s what you are after. People in our HC group tried the DPS focused approach and were able to achieve about 30% damage increase. With this balanced spec I was able to get a sub 9 sec dummy reset without any potions or buffs or gear changes to maximize damage output. Oh yeah, this build can take on Callagadra with very minor optimizations towards physical res and armor. The video is showing a balanced (for hardcore) setup, not the top dps one. Ever wanted to roam the world of Cairn oneshotting bosses and nemesis right and left? Ever dreamed about the feeling of utter OPness? Even with the enormous power creep as of late, which was inevitable to happen here, this spec can still humiliate many… most of the newly emerged power builds.
