[outdated] Caustic Arrow Solo Map MFer (20/300+)

I'm using a variant of AngryAA's build to run uber labs. It's amazing.

You just face tank Izaro. No dodging. No movement at all (except if he teleports you in the final phase).

Oh, and thanks to the insane life regen you get with 10+ endurance charges, traps are a joke. You cast Enduring Cry, instantly get 10 charges and can out-heal any trap damage.

With this build, you kill Argus, and except for elemental damage phases (Essences or Conduits) you kill buffed Izaro in phases 1 and 2 to end up with 3 keys at the end.

My variant brings a bit more DPS - I've gone crit staff using Hegemony's Era instead of RT Marohi Erqi.

My variant

Gear:


DPS is very good. I was going to focus on life, but I've got 6K which seems fine. So I'll pick up even more DPS.

I was able to level with this build reaching Merciless Dried Lakes in 8hr 44min play time at level 60. While running Dried Lakes for experience I was getting about 120M/hr on average. So in spite of this build being virtually unkillable, DPS is nice - and I can pick up quite a bit more DPS eventually.

Originally I was semi-following this build. It offers extremely high DPS and is one of the best in the game at the moment for end game accordng to the author. I wanted to farm Izaro though in complete safety so I picked up the ascendancies discussed in AngryAA's guide.

I ran my first Uber Izaro tonight on this build and it was a cake walk. No issues at all, got 3 keys. Very easy. Izaro did hit me for 3/4th of my life at times, but you've got plenty of time to heal up. Often a very long (10 second?) immortal call is up and Izaro can't hurt you. Failing that you've got 10 or more endurance charges, a buffed fortify, a bit of armor and a large life pool to see you through. So it's extremely safe so long as Izaro isn't doing elemental damage; you just need to cast Enduring Cry at the start of the fight and can ignore everything from then on.

I highly recommend this build if you're going to farm uber labs. You can do it with a 5-link Marohi Erqi and a Belly of the Beast - so total setup cost of your character should be way under 1ex.

I AM A BAD PERSON.

I WILL NOT ROLL THAT BUILD BECAUSE HE CANNOT TURN OFF HIS CAPS LOCK.

AND APPARENTLY DOESN'T KNOW WHERE THE PRINT-SCREEN BUTTON IS.

Current run:


Last run I hit a map cache and got a couple of T13's and some other nice maps.

I'm undoubtedly getting lucky with my caches, but wow! Uber lab loot can be crazy.
