[3.25] One shot Tectonic Slam Chieftain. Great Damage and Survivability. Melting all content.
|
Hi again! I'm approaching the end of the build now, having finally gotten the belt after too many attempts but have not managed to get the body armour veil. The resistances on this build feel really hard to cap and you really need to rely on the jewels to cap your resistances (bought some at 3ex each). I'm starting to farm Simulacrum now for currency but I'm unsure if I'm doing it right. So far I can only survive till wave 27-28. Do you think it's profitable to do Simulacrum even though I can't make it to wave 30? Are there any additional strategies you do with your simulacrum farming like gem levelling? Asking here since I remember you mentioning that you used this build for simulacrum in the last league while looking through some of the comments. Apart from that, any idea if I'm missing anything out defensively? The simulacrum bosses seem to hit very hard coming close to one shot on each attack even though I feel that I do have all of the defense layers already.

" Hi, I checked your character and your gears & skills are on the right track. If you are planning the build in long term then I suggest getting the awakened gem, they are a good long-term investment. Regarding mechanics, you can take a look at Q&A, especially the recent one I posted about damage [3.19] Jenno's Staff Crit Lightning Conduit Elementalist - All Rounder Spell Caster Build.

" About the damage difference in POB, it's because the config tab in your POB is empty, you need to use the same config as my POB to do a real comparison. Also, I see you've deviated quite far from the build, and those changes weaken the build. For example, I see CWDT + immortal call getting used that would severely affect survival and damage. (because it would depletes endurance charges which our defense & attack rely on) There are other examples such as Defiance banner doesn't have much benefit in this build, faster attack doesn't do anything, ancestral protector isn't necessary, enduring cry is missing etc. What I would suggest is first strictly follow the POB first, then use POB as tool to justify any changes you want to make.

" Hi, good to know that you are getting close to end-game gear. I would only suggest doing simulacrum if you can do all 30 waves. Regarding what's needed to complete all 30 waves, I would say gear is only part of the requirements. The other part is the understanding of simulacrum boss mechanics. Think of simulacrum boss encounter as Sirus or Maven encounter, no matter how good the gear is, if you don't do it correctly it would one-shot you. For example, dodging Kosis's detonation ball, fire ball burst. There's a good video that illustrates all of its mechanics. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l978TZfL1-Y By the way, if you check the video you will see, Kosis deal quite a bit of chaos damage, therefore having chaos resistance high is very important.

" I've been trying to figure out the attacks myself and from the video it looks like I understood most of them. I think what I need to prioritise is getting shock immune from jewel implicit. I'll try to work on that and getting body veil for slightly more chaos resist (at -1% now). Thanks for the advice! |

I still like the build and playstyle, but I really feel like I am lacking defence. Having only offensive Cluster things missing I dont know where the survivability should come from. I got oneshoted quite often and have serios problems with bleeding and other ailments like bleeding (and poison I think. Dead comes often so fast, that I don`t know what from...)
Can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong/ how to improve?? (changed jewels for shock and chill immune, missing only 5% Chill) https://pastebin.com/de3STzRk Thx in advance Last edited by ogli#5853 on Mar 8, 2022, 1:53:18 AM

Hello , i'm new to this game and decided to try this build.
The build overall fits me and I like it - it's not fast-paced and the damage is good. What i am struggling with is with survival - i think i'm way too squishy - i get hits which takes away half of my hp and if i'm not very careful to dodge i die. Could you have a look and see if i'm doing something wrong please? Atm i'm going with league starter version. Thanks in advance ! |

" Welp abit of an abrupt turn but I think I might have to take a break from this build. I've been trying to craft the body armour for around 2 weeks now, just with the suffixes. I've veiled the body around 15 times and unveiled it 6 times, failing on every single unveil even though I blocked ES regen. I'm almost convinced that the resistances veiled mod does not exist. I've spent more than 80ex trying to get that one suffix and have nothing to show for it. The build have been very fun and I really want to be able to do Simulacrum on it but I think I have to cut my losses here. If there isn't an alternative to that veiled mod then I think I'm gonna have to swap to a different build a make better use of my last bit of currency. Thanks again for the advice but I think I'm going to have to swap to a different build for now. Edit: Well scratch that because I invested abit more and finally got the unveil. It took me about 90ex to try to get just that small bit more resistances. I think it's probably gonna be a good idea to add in more details into the crafting guide. In this case, crafting on dual attributes (like strength and dex) greatly improves your chance of unveiling the correct mod so you might want to add something like this to the crafting guide.

Damage currently feels alright, although I feel weaker than I think I should based on the gear I have.
Any tips/help would be appreciated. Currently I am in the process of finishing the chestpiece with additional curse, and after that I am starting on crafting the elevated onslaught boots. Then I plan on picking up a second curse ring and finally rounding it out with a new amulet. I have crafted the early end game weapon and also currently running labs for the helm enchant. I should also mention I do not have the alternate quality gems or awakened gems yet, but will come in time. Anything else I should be looking for? No large cluster yet but also a work in progress. |
