silvergoose posted:For abyss I'm going to want something tanky, because my worst problem every character I play is getting one shot by bosses and it's annoying. I've found that, unless you mean random little hits are killing you from full life, this is far more often a problem with playstyle than gear/build. Path is pretty heavy in mechanics you have to dodge, even if you have >15k effective life (thanks Vaal Pact, won't miss you). Still, playing traps or mines might help you with that since you can't use leech as a crutch. ..btt fucked around with this message at 11:35 on Nov 24, 2017 |

It's probably play style, yeah. But the last couple characters I played were RF sr, which sitting in place made me die, and now flicker strike which I avoid boss oneshots mostly by being too fast, which eventually leads to death anyway. Traps or the like feels like I'd spend boss fights actually dodging, instead of trying to tank or be lucky, and I'm aiming to learn that dodging playstyle. Does that make sense?

It's one of the strengths of running totems/traps/mines - you've generally got more focus to dodge poo poo.

or play golems and just die exactly once on each boss (if at all)

I'm planning on doing virtually no trading this race since it's voided and I don't give a gently caress. I need an Al Dhih for my BV decay occultist and that's it. Of course since it's voided that means I'll almost assuredly have a ton of currency drop that is in no way related to Mayhem mechanics.

I'm gonna set up a firing line of four dark pact totems and then wither-cwc-summon skeletons about it.

Ferrinus posted:I'm gonna set up a firing line of four dark pact totems and then wither-cwc-summon skeletons about it. I don't think totems will cast Dark Pact on your skeletons, but I saw the fabled Skeleton Trap/Dark Pact Mine build so maybe? I'm thinking of just going Skeleton Dark Pact Trickster and stack poison damage off of six pulses of damage.

The totems do DP your skeletons, gives you some good boss dps.

I did a selfcast skeletons -> selfcast dark pact necromancer in turmoil and I think it's literally impossible to do a PBAoE dark pact if you have even a single skeleton anywhere onscreen, so DP totems should obey the same rule. (I also found a guide for someone else doing basically the same thing to confirm it works)

Anyone trying the BV Decay / Al Dinh build - please report on its efficiency. Considering that for Abyss if patch doesn’t mess it up.

Elerion posted:Anyone trying the BV Decay / Al Dinh build - please report on its efficiency. Considering that for Abyss if patch doesn’t mess it up. I'm also considering this - the guy who was #1 in occultist for turmoil was using it until he ripped (hilariously). Assuming the patch notes don't gently caress it up, i assume its a good build. I was gonna build essence drain and then swap over at like 68, does that seem right?

I am doing BV decay occultist right now. I am 36, but I've got the claw! I'll have everything working in a 4L soonish. You're basically leveling as hybrid ED/contagion/blight until that point so it's pretty good. The only reasons I've died so far are due to Mayhem shenanigans, otherwise I've been at zero risk despite playing really stupid.

please knock Mom! posted:Is it hybrid or life or ci and do you use mom? he was hybrid then swapped to CI shortly before dying (he died by being too sleepy to realize that he was playing like poo poo, ran out of flasks and then died to a bleed because he thought he was still hybrid)

Syle187 posted:This is definitely not true. Several totem builds have nice clearspeed, considering you can drop the totems and continue moving while they kill stuff. Traps are trash and have cool downs. Have you actually played with either? I played warchief totems last league, pizza totems, rf totems way before they were 'vogue' , and spork totems in the only league totems were good. This is when I slap my sperglord play time and kiwi mtx on the table and say "yes I have, zip it you dork" Totem clear speed is maybe not great lol And the playstyle is extremely not fun, objectively. Warchief totems is so good and easy, but if you call it fun you're lying.

Flameblast totems is the single most boring build I've ever played

So I switched to BV decay at level 43 / Act 5. I don't really care for it, at least out the gate. We'll see how it handles once the decay gem gets some levels.

Totems however, are "objectively" very solid for fast atlas progression and ladder pushing. #4 on the HC ladder this league was FP totems. They don't have KB/VPS/Geared TS clearspeed, but saying they are slow is wrong.

Quad frost bolt totems is plenty fun and one of the fastest mapping builds I've ever played.

I really like playing my Warchief totem dude. I don't really see the difference between him and other AoE builds gameplay-wise.

10 day races screw with my head. I got to 44, hate BV decay (it's probably very good I just can't be bothered to level with it) and was about to go through all the effort of respeccing or rerolling when I realized what the hell is the point. I could keep leveling as ED but I don't want to be an occultist for that, and I hate hybrid builds. Ugh.
