Blood Magic Shrine that I went full retard in, but shows the principal. Lacks audio, can resolve those issues and provide better content of similar maps later.

Hey Legasi, I finally followed through with something!

Analysis of the death:
I didn't watch my remaining duration on Vaal Clarity, got off a single cast and got destroyed. Reasonable, now that I look at it. Blood Magic is likely the most dangerous mod in the game to us, but is still doable. Hurrah!

Funny thing to note: Legasi was a bit "excited" for the Cold phase of Piety, then we just laughed at him when she died really quickly. Woo.


EDIT: Another video on it's way shortly. Got a blue perfect T2 life carnal armour, if you guys cared :P

Erm thanks for the videos, I added them. I'm still not sure what other message you want to express here...

I wasn't worried about the cold phase I was worried that one VC would not be enough for the whole 2nd phase.

And the most dangerous mod for plebs like me is 60% slower recovery. It just nullifies the tankiness of this build.

Here's that twinned palace!

iirc:
-max, twinned, terror
Was super laggy triple firestormer death.
(2 selfcast + 1 trap)
Thks legacy for the build, i'll probably roll this in standard HC once ascendancy is released. Will try 2x curse but need to think abt it and go through all the comments once more.

Occultist ascendancy class looks great for this build, any specific tree in mind yet? All nodes look great ^^

Well I'm not 100% sure yet, but the free pc generation and +1 pc is pretty much a given for non Skyforth users. After that you should either get the defensive or the offensive twopointer. If you're going for multicurse the offensive one makes more sense.

But we have to expect heavy nerfs to at least the poison mechanic, and no one can tell if this build will still be as ridiculous in Ascendancy.

Thx for the answer.

The second part of Malediction:
When you Kill an Enemy, for each Curse on that Enemy, gain 4%
of Non-Chaos Damage as extra Chaos Damage for 4 seconds

Is rather useless since we're already converting 100%? I can get 2 curses from whisper of doom and go vile bastion (this will be hc) and forgotten power ?

Or I could get rid of internal mantle but to offset the 25% it would require 6 curses (dunno if that's even possible).

Pretty new to the game but fuck I enjoy these discussions on builds !

Hey, that's the spirit! Same here ;)

It's true that it seems it would not work, but since Atziri's Promise also gives us a damage bonus (part of ele as chaos) I don't see a reason this would not work either. That's because when converting damage, all previous tags are kept, even if it's dealing none of the tagged damage.

You should definitely use the IM.

I'm not fully familiar with how I should be using flasks but 1/3 of my ascendancy points for sth that's gonna last 3.5s sounds a tad too "situational" for me..

Might as well go for the 2 points power charge skill and 4 points on the ES branch especially in hc.


Again, I installed 10 days ago and just mapping t5 maps now ^^.

I can't follow here, can you elaborate? Which Ascendancy node? What lasts only 3.5 seconds?


As for the flasks, Rumi/granite and jade preemtively when you're engaging a pack, Saphire against cold damage or when you are frozen/chilled, mana when necessary and AP when you're prestacking or need some extra leech and damage.

I was still debating the utility of malediction additional chaos conversion.

I get it now. Atziri promise is an example not a case where malediction is useful.. Sorry for misunderstanding !

So it might work then... So I'm still unsure ^^
It seems that Malediction would stack, making it perhaps helpful to use blasphemy in cases where it won't reserve too much, as to increase the number of enemies cursed. With most parties, it should be reasonable to get 40%+ increased damage, which is awesome. The existing tankiness will not be nerfed likely, making investment into Occultist survivability only really worth it in HC or on Skyforth variants likely.

Malediction + Profane Bloom + Void Beacon.

Profane Bloom is awesome for Necro Vigil, but AWFUL for some party play, namely with summoners.

The best "party" build would use Void Beacon + Wicked Ward + Vile Bastion, or Forbidden Power instead of Vile Bastion if you want more DPS.


Note: My in-class thoughts are known to be crazy. Legasi has lots of experience with it. Please excuse any phone autocorrects, such as diamond clams.
