Scion - [2.2 Video Guide] Tanky, High DPS, Crit Blade Vortex Build [HC/SC & Atziri Viable] - Forum

Ok, after testing a few things i have figured a few things out. First off, the dmg boost from flask sucks, im 15k town dps and i gain 700 dps while using flask, so i went Assasin, and its almost the sam dps but always up, the really nice thing is the power charges in maps, i had a hard time getting power charges up on non bosses with PCOC, i still use it but the assasin stuff makes them up 100% of the time in map. Second. i have taken the durration nodes south, while getting there i picked up 28% all resist and a Jewel node, then i ditch Duration Gem and use Increased AOE, and Concentraded Effect, that gives alot more dmg then other setups. Next i use only 1 Divinarius, too make up for the lost aoe i use the aoe just left of scion start, in other hand i use The Consuming Dark, sheet dps wise i loose 400 dps, but kill speed is nuts, you gain Poison on hit, i gain poison from 430 Chaos dmg, but they stack, so 20-30 blades a sec makes bosses melt so fast its insane. i will experiment some more, and get back with what i find. Kind regards Sinn	Posted by Sinnerster on Mar 20, 2016, 5:30:01 PM Quote this Post

" Inthemist_ wrote: Thanks a lot for the guide, it's been great and pretty easy to level in hardcore perandus league without having to buy any items. I just hit A3M but I'm starting to get hit kind of hard so I'm thinking about making my first purchase. My problem is that LC is pretty expensive atm (going for like 2 exalts) and after getting it you still need to get TONS of lightning resistance so it seems to be a pretty hard investment. Do you guys think I'd be ok buying a Belly of the Beast (which only goes for like 15-20c) and running it for a while until I get more currency or would you guys just save for the LC? save for the coil, get stacked res with your belt, helm and boots. I didnt find it overly difficult to overcome the penalty.	Posted by Planisphaerium on Mar 21, 2016, 1:50:47 AM Quote this Post
The Shell of this build using The Harvest 2h Axe is OP AF. (lowlife) Life based Using Carcass Jack, Trires+life helm and boots. Last edited by Belton on Mar 21, 2016, 2:36:05 AM	Posted by Belton on Mar 21, 2016, 2:33:18 AM Quote this Post

Nobody is using assasin's mark with warlord's mark. Why? I do, I think its great, I dont have to cast low damage blade vortex for power charges. Also, Assasins mark give more Crit, and more damage on crit and even another life an mana regenerator. I think its great until now. (running tier 8/9 maps without problems) Any thought of why not to use that? edit: with +1 curse gear ofc ign: tulkanion Last edited by tulka77 on Mar 21, 2016, 5:09:56 AM	Posted by tulka77 on Mar 21, 2016, 4:54:32 AM Quote this Post
This build looks interesting and feedback looks strong. However, I just respecced a Scion into this build and I find the movement totally clunky. Is the idea just to jump into packs/bosses and stand there? I also find that sometimes I feel "stuck" in place... even when I'm trying to move or whirling blade away (and I'm not casting Blade Vortex). My tooltip DPS is 2.8k at level 86... I assume this is low? (my Blade Vortex gem is only level 13) I haven't equipped myself with BiS gear yet, just wanting to test it out to start...
