THOR'S RAINBOWNUKE: off to the Marauder forum
" Yup izaro is really easy, almost too easy. Its those surprise trap combinations that will prove challenging. Well i just finished my witch testing with all 3 ascendancy classes (spoiler: elementalist is horrendous, except under certain niche scenarios). I will be posting my analysis shortly.

" The best thing about elementalist is the portrait art, which is badass Also, I'm 99.9% sure that the enchantments available from the labyrinth are total garbage and not worth getting. You get like a 1/500 shot at a bit of a damage boost to arc or discharge on the helm; none of the glove or boot enchantments seem useful. Very disappointing. IF the damage boosts to arc/discharge are multiplicative then it's worth it, but I'm guessing they're additive.

" +1 agreed, elementalist confirmed best ascendancy thanks to its GG portrait art Well since you mentioned it, I will list down the relevant helmet enchantments. As of now, it seems that we cannot get the higher rolls on the enchants for helmets. The increased effect seems to be additive as of now. Discharge 5%/8% Increased Radius 25%/40% Increased Damage 20%/30% Chance for Discharge to NOT Consume Charges Arc 25%/40% Increased Damage +2/+3 to Chain 20%/30% Increased Shock Chance Molten Strike 8%/12% Increased Radius 25%/40% Increased Damage +2/+3 to Number of Projectiles Lightning Strike 20%/30% Increased Pierce Chance (Harmful to this build so avoid it) 25%/40% Increased Damage +2/+3 to Number of Projectiles Leap Slam 10%/15% Increased Attack Speed 8%/12% Increased Radius 25%/40% Increased Damage The Discharge Increased Damage Enchant and the Increased Projectile Count Enchants for MS/LS are probably the best ones to get.

^ and even then, I'd say they're only worth farming for if the %damage is an increase of the gem's base damage, making it multiplicative overall

" Nope :( To do deathless, I think I need some way to mitigate freeze. One "Heat" flask is not sufficient... he freezes too frequently due to the damage of his hits. I think to do deathless would require swapping in a Dream Fragments for that fight. If you avoid slam and don't get frozen, the fight should be doable deathless so long as the map doesn't have super difficult mods on it. The 1.5% leech from Berserker is crazy powerful.

" Well that's good to hear. Previously only the crit variations of this build could take down Core Malcai due to them pre-nerf surgeons, and even then it wasn't always consistent for me. If you can beat Uber Atziri and Core Malacai deathless, then the crit varaitions will no longer have any advantage over the standard Rainbownuke and its superior clear speed.

oh don't worry... i plan to retest Uber as well; suspect it might also be doable now as Ascendant
Really want a 100% IIQ // double pack size // deathless Core Malachai kill though for the OP... working on that first The 352nd character to hit Level 100 in Standard The 82nd character to hit Delve 1000 in Standard Last edited by tackle70 on Mar 5, 2016, 1:16:12 AM

Bah... at least one death in each Core attempt. I'm too slow at leap slamming away from his slam attack in the first phase. Suspect better players would have more luck.
In any case, Core Malachai is definitely killable with this build if you swap in a Dream Fragments for the fight, even with reasonably difficult map mods. Deathless will require some skill though... I suspect this means that Uber Atziri is back on the table for this build; will test and confirm eventually. The 352nd character to hit Level 100 in Standard
