[2.6] CI HoWA ST - Uber / Shaper / Guardians Down - Budget Friendly?

Any reason to assume this will be nerfed in 3.0?

Tooltip dps doesn't take into account penetration and many other factors. You shouldn't tunnel vision on it.From what i've seen many of you guys don't take the alchemist node which is an amazing node and boost in dps, especially on bosses.

If you want to know your real dps get the path of building soft, upload your build and that's the closest you will come to knowing your real dps.

hey guys build is going great started with the build with about 500c and worked my way up and now its worth alot just got dual curse aswell



only 40.2k in ho gmp but everything goes down without a problem

Well... not to diss a guy who obviously knows more about this game than me, but what's up with that right ring of his ?

Ok I did a bunch of changing up - Currently in my HO with active buffs/golem - I am sitting at 30k at level 85. Is that okay? Strand boss still seems a bit hard.

I lost some int on gear to get what I needed for the others ( Resist wise ) Tell me what you think and what I need to work on?

As for the passive Frenzy charges I will get those when i start leveling up again.

Spoiler

Nice upgrades. Most of the rest will come from gem levels, toon levels, etc - just needs some more play time. Those Frenzy charges will add up fast as well.

A couple things left.
1. I'd buy a Brute Force solution jewel and put it in the bottom jewel socket - as long as that doesn't drop your STR too low to gear.
2. I'm personally running a 3rd Fertile Mind in the socket next to Vaal Pact. I'm not entirely convinced that it's a better option than a 4 mod jewel, but it's sure a lot cheaper!
3. I'd link a Warlord's Mark in with your cast on damage taken. It auto curses anything that hits you for significant damage, and everything around it, and when you kill them, you get free endurance charges. If your Immortal Call gets triggered while the endurance charges are active, it lasts a lot longer.

Shaped Strand bosses should melt pretty damn quick with your current setup and flasks active. Especially is you swap in Slower Projectiles instead of GMP.

probably one of the best builds I've played this league. I haven't done shaper only 2 guardians cause too lazy. Just a quick question though, Should I get EO first or the extra frenzy charges? I didnt get extra frenzy charges nodes yet I only have 5 max frenzy charges. these are the gears im using now

in HO
ES: 10.3k
DPS: GMP 61k with wrath, golem, and ancestral warchief

Frenzy charges first. You'll be sitting at max frenzy charges all the time, so more of a benefit than EO, which triggers a fair bit, but certainly not 100%.

I reroll my pathfinder ts so far i liked build got 18ex for this build is it make sence buy %40 st damage helm? if it is not i will buy 2 rings with 9 ex budged each

Buy the rings. Helm enchant is purely QoL. Also, I'd try to get the other enchants - ST proj speed or decel instead. Speed gives you a big range boost, and decel means you can get more hits if you sit at the right range.

How is this possible lol my gear is mostly better than yours and i have only 49k

Well, your tree could use some optimizing. I can't compare to him, as his profile is now private. Your gear is pretty damn fine for sure.

Swap the dex nodes near the ranger start for the projectile damage nodes below them.

Swap the ES/Ev node below coldhearted calculation with the INT node to the right.

Drop Finesse and it's supporting DEX node, put those points into alchemist. Or coordination - that would show a higher boost in HO, if that's a concern.

That STR node above Vaal Pact is pointless with Astramentis.

There is talk of CI getting nerfed in 3.0. That would make this a challenge.
