[2.6] [LSC] Flame Surge - "more is MORE" | MoM | 7kLife | 4/4 Guardians down |




I wanted to use Flame Surge as Endgame Spell, and here it is!
Warning: iam still trying to figure out the best skill combos..
Dont follow the meta, try something new!

Note: UPDATED


What is this build about?
Iam using high cast speed Flame Surge with Pledge of Hands, and using the berserker for MORE damage and Leech!
Life based character that using MoM with a high mana pool, together with 2x spirited response and the 75% buff effect of rallying cry we get 35% of damage taken back as mana = you will never run out of mana, as long you keep up rallying cry.

Build is "ready" with lvl 80, then you can choose what you need, dodge on the left, more life or damage. Its up to you.


FAQ
Main skill?
- Flame Surge... yes, underrated skill

How to proc the 50%more damage on flame surge?
use flame dash to create burning ground, or fire trap
(you can use righteous fire when facetanking bosses and leech, but have a "remove ignite" flask on you)

Why berserk?
- more dmg, leech + OP leech when taken a savage hit ( <3 )

HC Viable ?
- I think yes! if played more careful then me :D

5l viable?
- gonna try later

Build cost?
- together with 6l PoH, maybe 5ex?

DPS?
153.xxx in hideout
path of building
1.500.000 DPS on guardians (with shocked ground and righteous fire up)

Clear Spead?
- Sure, flame surge is .. pretty meh for clearing maps, but for me its enough, just like molten strike.
- You can swap flame surge and fire penetration and use : ice nova + cold to fire gem. (with AOE gem instead of conc) = good (only if you also use xoph blood)

Map mods ?
- everything, just "no-leech" maps are not possible
- reflect... maybe with sibyl's ring (-> will try later)


Pro/Con

Pro:
- facetank easy
- high singletarget
- instaleech
- high synergy in gear/gems/jewels .. love it
- pseudo 8-link
- no mana problem
- you can choose your skilltree from lvl80, want dodge chance? more life? more damage?!
- more then 1 button press
- i dont know now

Con:
- not enough gem slots on gear .. lol
- probably not a starting build
- clear speak with flame surge is.. just like molten strike
- some ppl would say "ehhh life build"
- maybe the sound of flame surge
- more then 1 button press
- i dont know now


DEFENSE???

7k life (with lvl ~80)
stun immunity

Final Note:
- Iam using Righteous Fire for BIG damage boost while facetank the boss, and i have a Flask to remove the ignite from myself, to stop Righteous Fire.

Looks just fine Brother :) cool and interesting build! Atm I'm figuring out bis combo for my Explo Arrow Chieftain but tbh I was also thinking about PoH xD atm finishing my frenzied BleedBabyBleed Juggernaut on Legacy but I'll give it a shot with something similar :) thx for sharing this!

Peace
Seeing is believing
Looks like a nice build. I tried a similar concept with Cleave and Atziri's Disfavor, but the damage was impossible to scale with so few links and spare passives. Travelling for Vaal Pact was about 15 points out of my way.

Only problem I can see with this build is lack of a movement skill. That would be a pretty huge detriment in enjoyability, and probably in bosses like Shaper too. Speaking of Shaper, have you tried him? I'd be very interested to see how it goes.

You could drop your Elemental focus or Controlled destruction for 20 quality Culling Strike Support. Gives you 38% increased dmg and more cast speed. Plus the 10% you don't have to keep fighting on the boss is a huge plus. That way when your mapping for clearing you can use Magma orb's and swap Culling Strike Support for LMP. Going to to start your build this weekend. It looks so juicy! Can't wait to try your build. Thank you for posting!

Hey, swap these 2 gems would result in a big damage loss, i dont recomend this, you can link your golem or something with cullings strike, if you realy want it.
have fun, like i had :)

How about an Empower in the links? Any way to squeeze that in?

would be a loss / equal with damage but moooore expensive :)
and more cast speed = more leech
so drop any gem for empower would be bad idea

I really like this, but gem swapping for clear/boss skills has always annoyed me. Building it now, but my solution is to buy a cheap 5L Pledge as a weapon swap for Firestorm and just hit X when I reach a boss.
