<HC>(Melee)The Lightning Viking - Story of The Managod-- The End.. (quit not RIP)
|
This was my last theorycraft before I decided to quit, no longer having fun attempting to make builds in this game. It is to focused on its metagame of HP and dumb mechanics (freeze + shock stacks = stupid game imo)
This Axe Shall Smash Down With The Speed Of Lightning and The Power of Thunder -- ManaGod  Hey there, a little about this character is. I started him during the week race with a few friends, waited for them to level to map. They kept dying then I took a break. After returning I left my self with my un-optimized dual cleave build With my linked mana leach i was doing 5 aps at around 6k dps This build had 166% Life, I was running 3k Life 7 auras 150ish active mana able to weave my arctic armor in and out. 5 auras Noticing a few friends in mid 50s and a few above me I decided to twink around my build a bit, and invested some regret orbs. I wanted to make use of molten shell, I also wanted less wasted points/stats - I was able to turn my build into. Dps increase and accuracy increase. I played with this build for a few days doing docks, then noticed a bunch of wasted points and wanted to invest into the talents on the far left (templar, increase aoe for my cleave) This was an all around boost, gained a bit of life - Massive gain able to run all needed auras (No vitality,determination or haste) and was able to go from 7500 dps on switching out mana leech gained me 1500. I was also firm at 85% accuracy instead of 80%. With this build I made farmed dock, just testing out the damage off auras on mobs and also farming maps up. Quickly made it to 75 sat around a few days. Got my hands on multi strike and used it with this build. My dps was 9230 switched a few items was sitting at 10k with mana leech. I did a few maps did not have any fear even though my hp was 3300. Decided I wanted more. OPTIMIZED MODE I was looking at my build and noticed my dps with lightning strike was 6k with the spec I had, checked out if I was able to optimize my build more and make use of vaal pact, and switch to a 1 hand / shield build (my first HC was this and died had double the hp and 5k dps). I then came to the understanding that the best dps for my level + gain on survivability/Life etc would be. Mind you I am only 75 atm, the way I set my passives up line me up with possible HP nodes + Static Blows (I could get this @ 78 which I will be). Key Points of the new build Able to revert to DW Cleave <10 regrets with dps outcome of 12k! 7 Auras 650 mana remaining! 5 Granite Flasks! Vaal Pact! Iron Grip! Inner force Permanent Arctic Armor BUFF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Mix of Armor/Block/Evasion - (30%26%25%) Max Resistances(79!!!) Eldritch Battery 5% Passive Shock Chance!(More From Gem Selection) MANY Possible routes on the road to 85,90 then 100! Shield (No wasted passives on dual wield block - can invest in HP or Hybrid Accuracy Nodes) Current DPS is 7650 Tooltip linked with

Looks nice :) How much mana / mana regen do you need for constant arctic armour (which lvl are you using? I can't see arctic armour on your gear)? Hoping to do a 2h mara / templar and I'm thinking of going for eldritch battery and arctic armour to boost my defences which will suffer due to no shield.
