[2.4] Abyssal Cry Berserker
|
How_This_Build_Was_Born
After taking a year long break i came back and tried out essence drain ascendant build. It was very strong, and i noticed how much work was Abyssal Cry doing, especially in a group play. Only problem with it was slightly longer than i would like cooldown. I started thinking if i could make Abyssal Cry work as a main skill with Berserkers "War Bringer" ascendancy node. "Aspect of Carnage" would also be a nice addition for a 40% global damage multiplier that would double dip for poison. I got hooked on this idea. Main issue with this build was lack of chaos damage scaling near Marauder start. Since "Hidden Potential" jewel was released i wanted to make a build with it, but could not justify use of it until now. At this point it was decided - i'm making it work.
Gameplay Video 1: Dried Lake Solo Gameplay Video 2: Terrace Map Solo Gameplay Video 3: Maze Map Solo Gameplay Video 4: Springs Map Group Pros: - Cheap - Only map mod it can't run (can, but rather not run) is blood magic - Strong AOE and single target damage - Tri curse with up to 30% effectiveness from tree (Temporal Chains, Enfeeble, Vulnerability) - 7k+ life pool with Cospri's Will at level 85. If you don't like curses - grab blood magic, put on Kaom's Heart and enjoy well over 10k life pool (curses are OP tho). - Very good both for solo and group play Cons: - Requires merciless lab completion to fully function (works really well as Flame Totem/Fire Storm and later Essence Drain/Contagion while leveling). I did merk lab at lvl 70 while carrying another person with no problems whatsoever, felt ready for endgame lab - Massive explosions can cause lag - Sometimes can have troubles with "Allies Can not Die" aura if solo. - limited pull of gear to buy on poe.trade, might need to alt spam yourself. Cost to make: 10-15 chaos is enough to make it work, with couple slightly expensive items to aim for in the future. I leveled 1-58 using items from vendors.
