Duelist - [3.14] Gannicus, God of the Arena – Deathless Uber Elder for Everyone - Forum

Very noob question: Why link maim in the auras when we already maim anemies in blood stance? And why bladestorm scales well off attack speed, if there are just 3 bladestorm each time shouldnt we try to make every storm as powerful as possible instead of casting more storms?

Is that worth the 4ex?	Posted by PatienceGG on Jan 4, 2020, 10:39:42 AM Quote this Post

Welcome to PoE, unfortunately... GGG "fixed" melee but spells/projectiles still rule the game. I mentioned some sword solutions that can help you though. And the -mana cost armour is not absolutely necessary, the build works without pride just fine. " Cordial wrote: Hey, Why dont you use F&S+HoP+Pride+Enlighteen? Because you need maim in there too. The usefulness of each aura is explained in the guide. Don't get me wrong, this is by no means a critique of you or the build. You have been very, very helpful. This is just the first melee I have played since the melee "fixes" and it's frustrating to see how much easier it is to play a caster/summoner/ranged build. There is something sincerely wrong with game balance when a naked summoner does 1M+ DPS and can AFK in Sirus or an ED/Contagion character with a +1 chaos wand that you can find at level 9 on a 4-link has 100k sheet DPS and makes the entire screen implode in two casts.

Just a heads up - this build is probably one of the better builds to kill Awakener with. I'm a really bad player mechanically and i can pretty much faceroll most of the mechanics of the actual fight thanks to high block. Just get a "corrupting blood cannot be inflicted on you" jewel	Posted by vtepezh on Jan 4, 2020, 2:46:33 PM Quote this Post
I wonder if there is a way to run Paradoxicas with this build. Maybe block on chest, ammy and gemini?	Posted by Adultswim3 on Jan 4, 2020, 4:02:41 PM Quote this Post

Is that worth the 4ex? That's up to you. I don't know your budget or how much damage it adds to your build. Use PoB to check.

No arguments here. I played a zombie summoner last league and it was the most ridiculously OP thing I've played in this game in 5 years. When spells can have both the same single target damage as melee and much larger area of effect at the same time then there's something wrong with the balance.

I suppose I should try this on standard when I get bored with the league. I really miss being tanky...

Anyone knows why Maligaro gloves are like 1 C in standard and 80 c in metamorph? Did they change them or something	Posted by LinkRyu on Jan 4, 2020, 5:28:59 PM Quote this Post

But on standard they're not 1c. You're looking at the old version. They're about 50c. They only drop in legion encounters but that has been the same since legion. They're still worth the price but it'll be much harder/more expensive to get good corruptions.

I just started this character today as I took Enki's Arc as high as I wanted to and I am melee player at heart. I do have a question though. Leveling wise: Do I go right and grab everything for blocking and fill out that side first or is there a better path for leveling or does it even matter?
