[3.7] Viper Strike Zerker | POISON FAILED | MeMe After All

... You said you were going to focus on double dipping on viper strike.

How do you double dip for poison? I thought they nerfed that.

Pastebin does not seem to work from my location.

Can you paste the test here or post the tree somewhere else? Would be great.

Thoughts?

I cant see the tree right now, i am waiting for the game and having final thoughts about my build.

Two decent Rare Claws (Both added phys + chaos, poison damage, AS) should outdamage Wasp in every aspect. Your version is fine by me for everything besides defense, i hate getting oneshotted playing evasion.

"

I will also be using the chaos impresence, and I will be running with a free blasphemy despair.

I will use Witchfire Brew Flask since i am running grace + determ.

Attack Speed and Nodes that increase both Hit and Ailment damage, plus Zerker 40% More Damage, most of the support gem and lots of jewels with added flat phys (because Unholy Might).

Thanks a lot, how does the poison "proliferate"?
And do you think this could be HC safe and fine for new players (low budget)?

Look up binos kitchen knife. Poisons spread to nearby enemies in death, and white mobs die almost instantly. I might even be able to drop melee splash but I need to test it.

And it could be good for HC on a low budget, if you don't get aspect of carnage, the one where you take 10% increased damage, at least until your very, very sure you won't die.

It don't, i have to play with the new melee changes and see with Ancestral Call and Melee Splash will be enough.

Its SSF and Budget Friendly but not HC Safe, you will be in melee range all the time, for melee i would say TideBreaker Jugger for HC.

So your not double dipping. Your just scaling ailment damage and attack speed. Double dipping is totally different.

Its very similiar, I am increasing a single stat or picking a single node that increases two diferent hits that compose my DPS.

So I looked at your tree. Your damage is kinda lacking a little, but more then that you don't have NEAR enough life. As a Berzerker with 10% increased damage taken, you NEED at least 200% Inc HP.

On top of that, I would suggest grabbing two more nodes, soul of steel for +5% phys reduction and +1max resist, and if your not using Enduring cry inorexible for endurance charges when you get hit.

Also, grabbing the big claw wheel gives you more life leech rate, super defencive, and also you have the option of grabbing silent steps, for an additional 5% reduced damage taken (from blinded enemies which won't be too hard, but also you can't be blinded, and with the new accuracy thing getting 3k accuracy is ezpz, so drop RT, and you can grab flawless savagery on the Ascendancy wheel for Uber lab) so both of those are offensive and defencive wheels. 10/10 would get both.
Your also right next to fatal toxins, a HUGE damage buff to any poison build.


Your also right there at acrobatics, if you wanted to go that option as well.

Here is my tree and I highly suggest you look at it, as it has better offensive and defencive solutions
