Welp, looks like another league of Scion & Marauder everywhere! Why they decided to nerf the life on the right side of the tree I will never understand.

Kild posted:um how was it nerfed A couple of the %life nodes near the Shadow tree got nerfed , Blood Siphon in particular. That cluster went from 24% life for 3 points to 20%. The extra %life went over to Nullification, which means you need to spend an extra 2 skill points to get 1% more total life than you had before, which is utter poo poo. If you want to start as a Ranger/Witch/Shadow and be life-based you're basically forced to take the Scion life wheel.

Kild posted:Thats literally the only one I see nerfed and its only 4%. "Only 4%" is really lovely when you consider how much more life Marauder/Scion/Templar/Duelist get access to on the left side of the tree. There currently isn't a compelling reason to start on the right side of the tree when you can only get like 135% life as opposed to like, 180% (without taking the Scion life wheel, which was my complaint) Look at the class distribution for Darkshrine, both SC and HC. Top 100 spots are all dominated by Marauder/Scion, with like 80% showing between the two of them Mystery Prize fucked around with this message at 07:36 on Dec 8, 2015 |

AegisP posted:You can end up with a 190% life starting Ranger if you take literally every right side Shadow & Ranger % life node (excluding Melding which is the ES/life hybrid wheel), and then pathing into Duelist to pickup Golem's Blood and Bravery. What level character did you end up with? I just threw together a cyclone Marauder that ends up at 186% life at level 73. No Scion life wheel, and I took basically every good damage node a cycloner would take. At level 80 and most of the Scion life wheel he's at 230%.

TheRat posted:No. I dont go west of duelist at all. Here's my work-in-progress tree (needs updated offline calc). I cant make up my mind about the shadow-area, because of the clusterfuck that is the new nodes there. Other than that I'm pretty happy with it. One option I'm considering is dropping the damage nodes below shadow crit for frenzy charges. I could also try to work in weapon artistry/aspect of the lynx. This isn't to showcase that cyclone is overpowered (because it is, at least until the patch notes show up), but more to show that it's significantly easier to build a tanky dude over on the left side of the tree.

I was thinking of trying a hybrid explosive arrow MF build at the start of the league, which may or may not end up being terrible. It looks like this (you'll need the updated offline skill tree) Basically the idea is to level with flame totem/searing bond and swap over to explosive arrow MF when I can get a soul strike quiver and quill rain or a +3 bow. If the build ends up being terrible I can also just mulligan into a totem MF dude.

Ekster posted:Whenever I died I would usually stare at my screen for a minute, then immediately reroll. Most HC players I know of do more or less the same. Pretty much this. The only times I get genuinely annoyed at HC deaths is when they are (mostly) outside my control; I lost a dude last league because I dc'ed while running out of Merc Voll's ground smash thing. Alt F4'ed the second I noticed, but still too late

For the dude who asked about Oro's Flicker: Marauder version Templar version Here's a Ranger version Marauder is probably best overall, more life. Ranger version trades a bit of life, 10% ignite chance and some elemental damage for 2 more frenzy charges and Vaal Pact, which is kind of cool for not dying instantly to ele reflect. The 2H damage nodes near duelist are because you use a Fireborn jewel there to turn all of them into fire damage. Mystery Prize fucked around with this message at 08:51 on Dec 25, 2015 |

Kild posted:Eh my gear wasn't that good on my Monk and I only died going to act 2 until I got better gear and then didn't die again until Diablo all prenerf I'm talking about like, Patch 1.0.3 (June or so) where it literally didn't matter what gear you had in A3+, if you got hit more than once you died. Most rares just one shotted you anyway. It was definitely possible but I am going to call you a filthy liar if you try to tell me you did all of A3 and A4 without dying until Diablo. Either you are the best Monk player who ever existed or you're talking about some point post nerfs.

Thoughts on Champion Duelist with a bow skill (probably LA)? Permanent 24% Fortify and a ton of extra evasion/armor/movespeed seems really good on a LA character and it means I can probably afford to run less life and more damage. Free +1 chain from Deadeye Ranger seems amazing too, though.

Saki posted:If anyone can critique my terrible Juggernaut build that would be great. I'm using Earthquake, Enduring Cry, Warlords Mark and Leaping strike. Oh, and Herald Of Ash. Cheers. Here is my recommendation for a level 80-ish build. Instead of going directly up through Born to Fight into the Templar area, I would go left through Butchery and the other 2H melee damage nodes over to Barbarism and then up into Templar, but that's personal preference.

Firestorm Trap is cool and good, and available super early. Firestorm + Trap + added cold or lightning in a 3 link +1 fire skills scepter will get you to 30+ easy. Alternatively, buy a Fencoil for literally 1 alt and use that.

I wonder if a Trickster version of the shield charge build might work? Your main attack would no longer cost mana, and you could go crit daggers or something. Only major problem might be getting strength for shield charge itself, but I suppose you could use jewelry for that.

The thing is, the discharge change does almost nothing for CoC builds; it is strictly a quality of life buff for self-cast discharge. I don't think discharge itself is op, but I do think the interaction between it and CoC pushes it there.

Speaking of ridiculously tanky homebrew builds, here is my low life KB Guardian running 8 auras I'm running Anger, Wrath, triple Purity, Discipline, Determination, Clarity, and Herald of Ice, most of which are in a +2 aura gems item; I'm using both Alpha's Howl and Prism Guardian. Because I'm Guardian, I get 160% of my reserved life as base armor (base meaning modified by increased/more armor effects), which means I get a thoroughly stupid amount of free armor despite not really having any on my gear. At level 84, I have 23600 armor with no flasks running, 5600 ES and 83/83/83/20 resists, plus a ~20k GMP KB setup with frostwall. It's definitely slower than a normal KB or Obliteration wander, but decidedly less paper!

I want to try a lovely crit spell trap gimmick for next league. No Bladefall, no Ice Trap. Think Ice Nova or Freezing Pulse would work as a trap? I'd probably build it as CI Saboteur.
