I mean, with spectre necro I can run any map mod, with ele reflect just needing to be identified to spam minion healing potions and possibly remove a support gem or the spirit eater gem so that when one of them goes super saiyan with 10x cast speed they don't blow themselves up by hitting everything before the other spectres do.

I also haven't had to really play to the boss mechanics much because everything melts, tier 15 brine king gets off 1 attack between his invulnerable phases, tier 15 araakali gets off 1 attack, tier 15 innocence dies during the beam that follows you, ect.

Trap and mine builds are probably the most mod-agnostic builds in the game, but they're hard to make tanky and Mind Over Matter without Eldritch Battery makes You Cannot Regen Mana a no-go.

The lore reason is that all uniques are copies of the originals, made by using Kalandra's Mirror, before it was broken into shards which you find as Mirrors of Kalandra, which only retain a mere fraction of it's original power. Her original Mirror was capable of perfectly copying anything with no limitations. Some rear end in a top hat uses it to outfit an entire army, the copies of uniques we find ingame are the remnants of this.

rf can run everything except no regen easily and tank almost any hit in the game. you can afk regular atziri and guardians.

gc miner can run anything unid but you actually have to try

Yeah I can run no regen just fine as GC mines. It does slow thing down a little, but it's perfectly doable. I usually roll over on no regen unless the quant% is fantastic but if I get it on a corrupted map or unid map I just run with it and it's fine.

nailed a lvl 4 empower today, think tomorrow I'm going to try something crazy and buy a shroud of the lightless to stick my barrage into on a doomfletch build. Hard to tell with path of building but I think the lvl 20 elemental pen support and the extra abyss jewel slot should be super dope for my barrage link, even though losing my mirage archer buddy will be a bit sad.

So, this unique:

How is this remotely balanced? An 800 DPS weapon with 9% base crit that you can use with blade flurry/molten strike? Sure why not.

Looks pretty dope, but that's a lot of fire degen to overcome.

Probably because of the damage taken as fire and the fact that you can't use a stat stick.

The fire damage means no -max maps, no no regen, etc. Your major regen points are also on the left side of the tree.

Pathing for it is a trainwreck with all the poo poo you need to make it function thanks to most 1h nodes actually being dw or shield nodes. You're stuck leap slamming with zero local attack speed.

Yeah by endgame that's more damage than Righteous Fire is doing to you (at level 90 it's 45% of your health instead of 40), so you have to build around it accordingly (but you can't use a shield to help).

e: plus it costs you three gem sockets

It comes with 6 linked sockets, just like the old Goddess Unleashed.

If you go crit you need nodes on the outside near ranger and on the outside near templar. If you go EO you still have tack on some crit because it only lasts 4 seconds. And you need slayer leech. Did you know that the only item that converts phys to fire that's usable with it is Xoph's Blood? The gotchas just don't end.

Oh, so it's just a two-handed sword that you can't use 2H nodes on instead of something like the White Wind?

Pretty much, they gave it a new base type so it's a 1-hander that uses both slots and has 6 linked sockets.

the degen shouldnt be too bad to deal with although you'll need some early regen nodes or gear to make it work as a leveling weapon

w/ barbarism and a ruby flask you only need ~8% regen at 90

you could prob do something dumb with it with chieftain as an absolute budget build

e: also i forgot purity of fire existed and that'd make it super easy esp w/ a flask

I think the sword got stuck in him somehow but he lacks the...necessary ambition and ability to wield it properly. I imagine she tried to talk to him but found the conversation lacking. And he deals no fire damage so she never awakens and embraces him.
