[3.20] Shattering/Splitting Steel Champ - All Uniques, Cheap to Start/Room to Grow, Endgame Videos

Hi Guys,

Here's my offering for 3.20 and it's a good one! What you'll see below is the result of all the Boneshatter and subsequently Splitting/Shattering Steel work I've done over the last few leagues.

-::- Build Intro -::-

This setup is finally finished and it's definitely worth sharing with others, so I recorded some of my first clears, so you all can judge the build quality for yourselves.

In short, the build is a lot of fun, with very zoomy/fast Mapping and big explosions from Call of Steel.

As always, I stand by my work and would not be sharing this if I thought it sucked.

If you don't know me, I've been making builds for a very long time...

Heyyo nice build, I've wanted to do a steel skill for a couple leagues now. What are your thoughts on using a saviour + paradoxica instead? Doesn't looking like you're taking advantage of a 6L 2hander and I love the interaction of saviour + steel skills. You look into this at all?

Thanks, glad you like.

Paradoxica/Saviour is a very common and good choice, but I used that last league, so I am not doing that right now.

You're welcome to check out my 3.19 Jugg which was using them: https://pobb.in/aPl0xOBnV0Wp

Here's the STD toon link fully min-maxed with Mageblood: Coromau

No need to buy, you just Alteration spam an Amethyst Flask until you get any roll with "25% increased effect" and an empty suffix, then Bench craft Reduced Mana Cost During Flask Effect.

EDIT: If you need the Bench Craft, iHuy's Shop can do it for free:

3.20 Endgame Setup Update!

Hi Guys,

So, I've been min-maxing and the toon is looking pretty good, with some important changes I'd like to talk a bit about.

First, here's the latest gear:



Here's the list highlights:

• Thrillsteel - Cannot be Blinded. Very handy for a build relying on Precise Technique, as being Blind lowers our Accuracy. I got this one for 35c, but I've seen them go as high as several div
• Kaom's Spirit - Vulnerability on hit for more DPS, but for Sanctum Temporal Chains can be a great help against guards. 2div
• Bottled Faith - MORE DEEPS! 3div
• Circle of Guilt - Intimidate on Hit MORE DEEPS! 1div
• Megalomaniac - Found a crazy good Mega for 10c... (I know)
• The Magnate - Enchanted with 30% Accu while having Onslaught is big to help us reach the required Accuracy for Precise Technique
• Rare Ring - This is just a generic high +Elem Res ring to put in for nasty maps when we lower our Elem. Res too much with Eldritch Altars. You can also move some DPS nodes to Diamond Skin/Cloth and Chain if you need even more Res
• Magic Flasks - Crafted myself some nice Flagellant's
• Item Rarity Support - The build is now strong enough to farm juiced T16s with Item Rarity for MORE LOOTS!
• Concentrated Effect - We swap Item Rarity to this for Single Target/Sanctum
• Precision - In order to fit in the Megalomaniac, we drop Faster Attacks from Leap Slam to fit in Precision and we level it just enough to get our Accuracy higher than life, without reserving so much that we can't cast Pride. It's a delicate balance, so be mindful of this!

I also added a couple of videos recently, which I'll re-link here:

YouTube: 3.20 Delve Fossil/Resonator Farm
YouTube: 3.20 Delve Grand Architect (Splitting Single Target 5L DPS Showcase)

The first is a really nice showcase of how zoomy and tanky the build is while farming Delve. You'll notice I spend a lot of time in the Darkness without dropping flares.

The second is a really nice showcase of Single Target DPS with Splitting Steel on a 5L setup, since I was running Item Rarity as the 6th link.

Finally, here's the latest PoB Export of my 3.20 toon: https://pobb.in/-DU4-UD-rAaB

That's all for now.

EDIT: Here's an updated PoB with Large & Medium Cluster Jewels. We trade-off Onslaught bonuses, but it's worth it; Onslaught is a cheap way to scale early on before GG gear, but we really have more than enough Movement and Attack Speeds, so buffing raw damage works out better. Both rare jewels I crafted myself with Alt/Aug/Regal/Annul/Exalt spam.

3.20 Endgame Update: Ashes + Nimis & other expensive goodies!

Hi Fellas,

So, I've taken my toon to the next level and it's been a fun ride!

Here's the latest setup:



There have been some pretty big changes/upgrades:

• Ashes of The Stars: Everyone knows and amazing item and I've picked most alternate gems that gain benefit from it. (I still carry Carnage Heart if I need more Res in a map)
• Nimis: The new ring feels amazing for both clear and single target. It takes a bit to get used to it, but def worth picking up.
• Double-corrupted Replica Wings: Got very lucky. Bought a well rolled one and first double-corruption got me +phys/+fortify on hit. The fortify on hit is not much help for me, since I have the Ascendancy, but it does help my totem survive and do a bit more DPS.
• Enchanted Thrillsteel: Turns out the Dawnstrider boots also make the 18% AS Enchant also Linger, which is very OP!
• Enhance on 6L: Taking advantage on the 6L on Axe with Enhance to give us even more Quality bonus on top of Ashes.
• Sniper's Mark & Anomalous Blood Rage: I mention these two together because I swapped Poacher's to Sniper's, because it's way more DPS and with Anomalous Blood Rage we no longer need a way to gain Frenzy on bosses which Poacher's gave us.
• Phantasmal Ancestral Protector: Combined with Ashes and Enhance Support, the Phantasmal version grants us an additional 74% increased Totem Buff Effect, which with add to the 100% Inc. Effect from Boots, plus the 50% from Panopticon, for a total 224% Inc. Totem Buff Effect.
• Sanctified Relic: With Precise Technique or Call to Arms or Iron Grip or Point Blank all work the same, so pick the cheapest IMO. (btw, PoB doesn't calculate Relics, so I have 101 points in the PoB Export below, so Precise Technique gets calculated.
