Here ya go:

Uber Atziri Quad phase AFK
Level 79 Vaal Trio with Chain and no Curse mods going AFK before killing anyone

.. what makes the second one interesting was the AFKing was done at the beginning of the fight, before killing A'alai first (which normally would spawn lots of similar NPCs which helps Aegis regen, statistically speaking). Here I used CWDT/Lightning Warp to help my regen and I used more ES... I also had Enfeeble / TC ready to curse (can't recall which I was going to use), but the map I had was no curses...

YouTube is doing something weird today where it puts a quick black frame in the first few seconds of the vid for some reason, even though it isn't in the original vid. I'll see if it self-corrects in a few days and if not will reupload them.


Am interested to know if a hybrid approach w/ 4kish ES, and 60kish armour can do this in Abyss with the double dmg.
@BeerPact
Would you be willing to post some vids doing Master missions? Pretty please? :)
How about Death & Taxes... can't recall if I saw you do one of those?
Yep, did one a while ago:

If someone wants a Master mission I will PM you a link -- they are kinda boring :)

Hey I noticed you have some new hardcore videos you are uploading on a new character -- can you add them here as well for ease? :)
Please do Hall of Grandmasters)
Here you go. I believe it is a world first melee clear no deaths (I can only see 1 other person to date who has cleared it with no deaths while being solo, and they were ranged -- point me to an earlier vid of a full solo melee clear with no deaths if you know of one).

Hall of Grandmasters melee solo clear no deaths
(it is uploading right now -- it is long)

Those Aegis users are annoying as Aegis. Lol.

I also had a guidlie call out for Abaxoth help. First time I tried him. He had lots of fun mods because it was a Corrupted map (shocked ground, 1/2 regen, +30% physical reduction, poison on hit, +81% extra cold dmg, beyond)...

So here is an Abaxoth video as as well.

Hello gellig!
I saw your build doing a lot of things, and i liked it (like who didn't!).. My question is, back in diablo 2 i had a concentrate barbarian, i dont know if you were a player then, but in general the build was a max block dude with average damage, an offensive tank. with that build, i managed to get lvl 90ish in the hardcore ladder. my idea is making a max(?) block marauder like you did. i'm thinking of using 1h double strike as a main attack, maybe switching to heavy strike for bosses(like i sometimes did in diablo 2 with bash) what is your opinion based on your experience? will double strike fall too short on damage while 4l? assume normal gear, no mirrored stuff etc. what build would you advice me to do? im starting this from scratch... im linking my build idea: http://poeurl.com/zhufbg4 , what is your opinion on this? as i said, its not a lvl100 reset as you mention in the guide, its building from scratch. Last, im levelling with a 2h axe, and think of going 2h for as long as i can, to get the extra dmg> faster levelling, when should i start with a shield? at maps, or earlier?

Congratulations on what you accomplished,cheers!

Hey trimpourdelo,

I liked Reave more than Double Strike given its AOE potential without using MS and better single target damage (with lower Dex needs). DS can work though. The tree you listed is pretty good, obviously you sacrifice from spell block. I think you will know when you need a shield (i.e. when you need the survivability) -- until then, keep going DPS ;)
