2.5 LL 5 curse ES/EV Scorching Ray - One Sweep The Real Cursed King [Clear Everything]
Introduction
Hello,I am Scrbeam, i'll introduce you my build theory. And till now, it's very powerful and safe enough. I thought much to make it work better and better. So lastly i want to post it to everyone and help me to make a perfect build. -pro easily clear all breach monsters 3-link to sweep dried lake at low level no reflect problem end-game can do no regen map(use mana flask and just close a cuse-aura, it's fine) it doesn't hit, so we can use EE perfectly it doesn't hit, so we could use Elemental Overload mechanism we should thank OoS -con the only con is that monster dies not instantly(doesn't hit, which means doesn't crit), they die from burning fire (slowly)
Build Theory
The core is: 1. Curses As we use Occultist, we can get something like Enemy can have 1 additional curse from passive skill tree and ascendancy point, 1 from unique ring if you got a corrupt amulet with +1 curse, then you can have 5 curse with enemies. That's not necessary.Until you're too rich. We can obtain other 3 additional curses from: (1) Occultist Ascendancy (2) Wisdom of the doom (3) +1 cursed corrupted amulet So, of a summon, we can reach 5 curses total. 4 Main Curses:
Defence Curses
TWO AURA CURSE TO KEEP SAFE Enfeeble-Temporal Chains: convert these to Aura and keep safe.(Slow down them, weaken them, so you get less damage) With some thought, i try to get some evasion from equipment or flasks(even 3000 is much help). My first is trying to use Grace aura to make more evasion, because the enfeeble reduce enemies accuracy, so promote our evasion will make it work more better and our character will be more safe. Why, just look at the formula: ![]() How to promote it, we could even use blind to make it more and more powerful.
Offense Curses
OTHER TWO/THREE TO WEAKEN ENEMY Flammability-Vulnerability-(Elemental Weakness): use Orb of storms and CoH to trigger these curse. Also we Could link it with a Blind gem. So the monster is harmless and we could do huge damage to them. And our target is ONE SINGLE SWEEP 2. Avoid Being Stunned a.we could get some point from passive. and get to 70% chance to avoid stunned while casting.(east take) b.we could get a craft (25 to 35)% chance to Avoid being Stunned from Leo.(I didn't get it now) c.we could enchant our boots with 50%-80% chance to Avoid being Stunned if you've Killed Recently(didn't have) d.we could use Essense of Scorn to make our gloves the affix.(did't have) So we don't need Eye of Chayula Amulet.(Because that's expensive for me at beginning, LOL) Even i don't have these affix, i feel very well. Because it's a ranger caster build. So it's important but not as important as much. 3. Chaos resistance Because this build is a Low-life build, and Shavronne's Wrappings cost too much. For a beginner, i can't afford it. So i change my body armor with a similar es and lightning resistance armour.(I think i could replace it in the future.) But now, my chaos resistance is capped. And for most map it's works very well. (Or just close the aura linked with blood magic, it works well too)

Gear
Weapon
We keep cheap, so we use Aha, i get it with 1 socket at first, and i jewels to it, make a 4 sockets, but just with 3 link. I must tell u. a 3-link Searing Touch even make much damage. I can facetank Voll in dried lake at level 50+. (One Sweep for almost monster packs only 3-link) And it take us 12% block, which can work with evasion better.
Gear/roll priority
(1) weapon/staff The Searing Touch Lathi (2) the +1 curse ring Doedre's Damning Paua Ring (3) stun avoidance ring(Valyrium Moonstone Ring) change it to rare ring later(point 8) (4) Body Armour Firs priority: Shav (don't look at the socket gems, this is my other build) Or a rare chest: High es resist stun and block recovery(not important) (5) Helmet high es and evasion resist stun and block recovery craft avoid stun (25-35%) from leo (6) Glove high es and evasion resist avoid stun stun/block recovery (7) Boots movement speed (30%) high es and evasion resist stun/block recovery (8) A rare Ring fire damage/elemental damage resist pure es cast speed craft 5-20% inc energy shield from Elreon Master(lv7 Require) (9) Amulet Rare choice: %spell damage fire damage pure es %es cast speed resist Eye of Chayula/(upgrade version is good, and u doesn't need avoid stun affix anymore!!!!) (10) Flask +3000 Evasion/100% increased evasion Basalt flask Silver flask Quicksilver flask etc. as u love (11) jewel: burning damage fire damage global damage cast speed cast speed while holding a staff inc energy shield resist if u not capped
Current Gear
Gem setup
Weapon Link(6l) Scorching Ray - Elemental Focus - Controlled Destruction - Faster Casting - Rapid Decay Support - Empower(lv3 at least, or you could use Increase Burning Damage Support) Body Armour(6l) Orb of Storms - Curse on Hit Support - Flammability - Vulnerability - Elemental Weakness - Blind Support(or ICC or Increase Area of Effect Support,or just Lightning Golem(can curse enemy too), as what u like) 4L gem links ( for Helmet, Boots, Gloves, your choice) Blasphemy - Temporal Chains - Enfeeble - Enlighten Blood Magic Support - Discipline - Clarity, Arctic Armour Movement Skills: a)Lighitnig Wrap - Faster Casting - Rapid Decay Support - Lightning Golem b)Leap Slam - Faster Attacks - Fortify - Lightning Golem I use first one and the choice b) is more suitable, because fortify gives us 20% damage reduction, sounds too good to try. Another good point: If u has too good items, u could replace discipline with Grace, which give u more evasion, and another different defense mechanism.(I think it has good effect) Maybe u could wear Skyforth and make a change(More mana reservation) to add Grace[just add in the body armour] (Another way, you could try Alpha's Howl Sinner Tricorne, if give u 8% reduced mana reservation, and give much evasion) A good Helmet for curse, Heretic's Veil, thank for this. It takes a free blasphemy, and u could try 3 curses run on the helmet.(Just Temporal Chains + Enfeeble + Vulnerability + Enlighten), then u have one more slots for another aura. (That's Great, not test just think, sorry for my poverty)
Bandits
skill-skill/Alira-skill
Ascendancy
Occultist[best choice for scorching ray], can get high es, kill to regen es, and ES Recharge is not interrupted by damage when started recharge (very important for surviving) First 2 ascendancy for es/survive Wicked Ward - Vile Bastion Last 2 ascendancy for damage(10 more)/additional curse Profane Bloom - Malediction
Leveling
Use Scorching ray when you get it. Link Order Elemental Focus + Fast Casting + Controlled Destruction + (Rapid Decay) + (Empower) when have enough links Use Orb of storms + CoH + Flammability as fast as u can. Link blasphemy + temporal chains + (Enfeeble if you get the node) Then Arctic Armour. U can get some mana reserved node first. Then regret them.
PlayStyle
Lightning Warp into the pack, and sweep around . (If the pack seems hard one-sweep, then drop a orb of storms) Last edited by ctaszeus#7815 on Jan 20, 2017, 8:53:03 AM Last bumped on Jan 28, 2017, 7:10:17 AM
