[3.5] CheeQu's CoC Ice Nova Assassin - Up to 7m Shaper DPS + Amazing Clearspeed [In-Depth Guide]

cyclone - coc - inc crit - ice nova - one of your dmg supportgems. personally i would tske ele focus as it has a higher multi then hypo. and its a blue socket. that should be easier to hit then a 3rd green.

on the other hand: im at the same stadium like you. i used tabula for long time, but "upgraded" to a corrupted rare chest with 3g/3b and like 50 life for 10c and sold my tabula for 11c :D
im currently in the t12 maprange and i have zero trouble. sure, loreweave would be a good boost in offensive and defensive. but a cheap armor works well too

I have pretty much everything from the "Core" part of the build except the amulet and loreweave, I'm thinking about buying a 5L loreweave until I get the currency to upgrade it, which gems do you think I should prioritize?

Get the amulet first. It is more of a core part of the build. Buy some random 6L evasion base for cheap, use a pristine + prismatic on it, and call it good until you can afford the six link loreweave later. Loreweave is nice, and still the best chest to use, but the build certainly functions without it.

Loaded the POB. It is not even close to getting enough dex for the weapon. How are you getting dex

That items give u enough DEX + some nodes

Jesus christ. The amount of money on your character is disgusting.

Is there a bug with fortify on the COC setup?

Mine isnt procing when using cyclone even though its linked.

Yeah, it broke in the patch last Thursday. Hopefully they fix it soon. I've playing Sekiro in the meantime, and plan to come back to face off against uber-elder once it is fixed.

thanks.

Also I am not getting stacks of dread banner nor procing mark of the shapers summon volatile on kill. Glitch or what

Great build! love playing it! just wanted to know what my next changes would be?
I can do everything apart from uber elder, my dmg is more than enough but my hp is not for the fight (might just need to learn the mechanics of the fight tbh)

hi:

how would i get atziri gloves and devo headrest ?

I'm actually not seeing a big lure to post nerf loreweave. I havn't done uber elber yet, but going with a high raw HP chest has felt really nice, and I've got more easy to grab health nodes left. I imagine I'll settle somewhere around 7.7Kish raw hp, which has benefits against big raw physical hits and the extra hp kind of feels like a good trade off for the extra resists cap on Loreweave.

The damage increase on loreweave is nice, for sure, but you have to pad more resists elsewhere and the loss of health just feels like a mixed bag to me. At t14 maps so far bosses instantly die, and I've not even fit a wise oak into the build yet. Ultimately the build does such great damage that I think keeping fortify on my 6L (though I think its bugged atm?) feels like a wise decision. Maybe I'll change my mind later though, but 20% reduced damage ontop of the higher HP pool feels like a net win as opposed to what, atm, feels like needless damage given things die in 1-2 seconds as is.

Loreweave is still pretty strong. Not as strong, but pretty strong. The increased max resists makes each hp you have all that much more effective. 78% max resists means you'll be taking 88% of the elemental damage you would have taken before. Think of it like a flat "12% less elemental damage". Something that would have hit you for 6000 hp before would be hitting you for 5280 hp now.

If a different chest can give you a more hp in the realm of 15% or so, than yeah, it would be better at surviving elemental hits. I added an extra three percent to account for the actual life on loreweave. Depends on your life percentage on the tree too.

Granted, before the nerf loreweave was a "20% less elemental damage". That 6000 hp hit would have been reduced to 4800 hp. You would have needed a chest that gave you something like 23% more hp to beat it. That is like Kaom's Heart level of more hp (at least on my character).

The crit chance and elemental damage on loreweave are still excellent for the build too.

I like fortify in the six link too. Real top-end would be getting a cospri with a "chance to fortify on melee hit" implicit. No need for it in any of your links, and it would reliably stay active.

Of course, if you start corrupting them, you'll then get 'resolute technique' cospris and be sad.
