unique items *no longer updated*

If that amulet had like 40% MORE melee dmg on full life I think it would be worth it but not in this state (increased), then have it have 50% LESS ES.
Then the downside would be that 1) you aren't allowed to use Blood Magic on your attack (as that would remove the full life status), 2) it would require a huge mana pool or crazy regen or mana leech to sustain your attacks and even more if you want to get max aurae possible with that setup, and 3) it wouldn't make taking ES have only a little penalty (increased can easily be equalized, less not).

If it would have been like this, the amulet would be a less defense - more offense item basically which there should be more of in the game for melee.

Unless you mean "more uniques useless for me"

How many uniques are there for full life melee builds?

Well, it could work with aegis aurora, but until the dmg is increased, it's shitty.

only 2 uniqs this patch?

The other four are league-specific

The leagues in question not opening up for another day or so.

I can't tell what build would benefit from Voll's Devotion. It seems to be aimed at Discharge builds, but endurances are the easiest charges to generate. If it was the other way around (gain powers from expending endurances) it would almost double the build's power.

Discharge builds with Voll's and that amulet can basically perma-Discharge in mob groups if they get high crit chance.

Mmm, that is true.

Oh, and I guess you could get pretty tanky with a Cold Snap build. :P

I can imagine a flip-flop type build with tons of power and edurance charges


...
7 power charges -> discharge
7 endurance charges (+ power charges maybe?) -> discharge
...
if either of those discharges crit the cycle is continued
or if you have blood rage it could go even further


basically you can discharge infinitely untill you have 2 non-crits back to back


a godly build would be

2 x void battery
volls protector
volls devotion
carcass jack
kaom's ring maybe?

cold snap for damage

you'd be unstoppable
