I decided to use this build as a league starter, hoping that it'd take me all the way through. Seems strong with lots of life etc.

However, I'm having some trouble right now though

Any ideas?

life recovery mod on an elder belt would help. as would enduring cry over rallying cry since yours doesn't generate endurance charges :P. dropping immortal call helps if you can't maintain charges on bosses. 2% regen boot enchant is pretty useful as well.

oh and as always, read the FAQ next time. you can't leech off RF or Scorching Ray, as they don't hit lol. Fire Leech = 100% useless.

Ah, I see. Must've missed that part in the faq. Thought it was different from a leech gem, which clearly says the attack has to hit. Since the Hinekora node and amulet only says "Fire damage leeched as life" I thought it was working. Actually never bothered reading how the leech mechanic works. Oh well. :)

I have both Enduring cry and Rallying cry, and I chose which one according to situation. Dropped IC already, just for that reason.

I'll see if I can get a good elder belt - or when I can afford a Watcher's Eye with Vitality boost!

Thanks.

I didnt say i was using a cwdt setup lol.pls read again my last post...


Orb of storms + increased crit chance +
curse on hit + flammability.


I know its not in the build,but i tend not to take dmg so i dont proc the curse as often as i would wish or even at all.ill link my gear later because im on my smartphone atm

I purchased some gloves that came with cold and physical added damage to attacks and I'm wondering if the physical added attack will impact EE?

Trying this out now, but not understanding why so much strength is important... ? Still new to the game so have to learn a lot... just cannot comprehend why 800 STR is recommended for the weapon :)

before 800 str, a perfect doryani's catalyst can give up to 132% inc damage for RF/SR. after 800 str, doon cubiyari gives 132% inc damage and much more the higher you go.

It would only be a problem if you aren't using Brutality in your Shield Charge set up as that should be the only attack that you do. Everything else is either a spell or burning damage (not an attack). Brutality will prevent elemental damage so you don't accidentally convert some of your phys damage to fire (via the Ascendancy node) and unintentionally trigger EE resist to fire.

Just to be clear, you won't be causing any cold damage either with those gloves.

Plus, there's an additional bonus that every 10 points of strength also gives you an additional 5 points of life. So the difference between 400 strength and 800 strength equals an extra flat 200 life. Then you get your % increased life attributes on top of that so get both more survivability, plus Righteous Fire scales off your life, so more damage too! It's the gift that keeps giving!

I am a quite big fan of Death's Oath (DO) builds. Due to similarities in between DO & RF builds. I wanted give this build a try and really enjoying it so far.

I am currently level 77 having 7800 life & 839 strength. My all resistances are capped (certainly except Chaos res)

Any idea about how I can improve my build is welcome. You can see my gear below

Thank you very much for helping me out. Does EE still get triggered then? Or am I using it for no reason? And if it does, whats triggering it, and are the adds getting the -50 fire rez?

Thank you

here is my gear
