Tanky, fast HC 1.2 builds ?
|
I played a Flameblast Witch and a Incinerate Witch, and both of those skills makes you stay still for some periods.
After that experience, I'm looking for something that can move around and survive, DPS being secondary but still important. What kind of builds are there out there that don't force you to stay still (for more than 2 seconds) to do DPS ? | |

If you wanna move, try out a flickerstrike build....you'll never stop.
Moving, that is. (I hope you don't rage about Desync though....) (1.2)Puncture/Ice Shot duelist - http://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/1078942

" I, in fact, do rage about desync, so I try to avoid situations that trigger desync. | |

Well, there's always shield charge
(pauses for laughter) Or, you could try cyclone with whirling blades as a movement/initiation skill. Maybe leap slam into <insert skill> (1.2)Puncture/Ice Shot duelist - http://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/1078942

" Afaik thats all desync galore. By fast I meant stuff like EK/ST/etc, cast move cast move case move. Just, you know, something different than EK/ST. Last edited by tasetase on Aug 16, 2014, 6:44:03 PM

Oh, well then, try Summon Raging Spirits.
I did that last 1mo race; cast for 3 seconds, run away and let spirits wreck the field, reach next pack, cast again, laugh (optional), repeat. (1.2)Puncture/Ice Shot duelist - http://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/1078942

" I checked those out, looked fun, but I also saw the video of the guy doing 1.2.0 Merveil with Raging Spirits, and it didn't seem to work out too well. So I suppose you need an other skill to use when there is a lot of AoE on the field, right ? Last edited by tasetase on Aug 16, 2014, 6:48:42 PM

" I've done 78 maps with SRS; unless there's a massive dump taken on my poor spiritual heads, should be fine. (I ran a life + EB/MoM SRS build; based off peppermint butlers build). ***the key, like doing Creamy-torium boss, is to kite far enough away for the boss damage/AE to be only hitting you, and not the pets. I never used any other skill, than my precious skulls of doomy doom.

" Hm, good tips, how do you think Life/EB/MoM/SRS will fare in 1.2.0 ? | |
" Quite wonderfully; while life suffered a TINY bit, mana regen and pure mana nodes became more accessible. I think, unless the patch notes dictate a policy change, that it'll be quite valuable/viable in the next league. Plus....it's fun!
