[3.9] Memoria's Exploding Fire BV Chieftain [All content - Deathless Awakener 8]




Hello everyone!

Are you looking for a build that is FAST, clears ALL content in the game including Blighted T16's, Legion encounters and Delve while having enough damage and survivability for Metamorphs and Sirus at awakened lvl 8?

Look no more, the Fire BV Explosion Chieftain is here!

This is not a budget build and I'd expect to spend at least 15 ex on the build, crafting the chest alone is around 5-6 ex. You can easily spend all your exalts to make it even greater, adding HH etc.

I'm streaming daily at https://twitch.tv/Memoria_gaming feel free to stop by to ask questions about this build or just hang out with us.

Pros/Cons
Spoiler
Pros

+ Fast map clear
+ Clear all content
+ Satisfying explosions
+ You get to play with fire
+ Not a Meta Build

Cons

- Cannot do Elemental reflect or avoidance to ailments
- Expensive to min max
- Without the chest the clear speed is like a regular BV build

It's the crusader chest that explodes on death, not the redeemer.

Thank you, my bad! I corrected it.

Coming up in about an hour.
Just took a look at your pob and with your might of the meek setup you are wasting 2 skillpoints on "Path of the Warrior" and "Exceptional Performance" since both of these notables doing nothing (cause of might). You'd have a better use out of it if you would slot in in the slot under the maurader start.

Might of the Meek is under the marauder start, the other jewel next to Scion is a temporary Corrupted Blood jewel.
Sirus Kill lvl 8 added, will upload a T16 clear in a little bit.
Clear speed is pretty nice. Why spend all that money to get +crit on chest when you use EO? can't you just get some crit chance elsewhere for cheaper?

Yeah for sure, you can also get physical dmg taken as elemental instead or additional curse if possible. Gonna clarify in the guide.
