[3.2]♦Pants On Fire! LLRF Scorching Ray Guardian ♦ FULL VIDEO GUIDE UP! ♦ NO CHANGES FOR 3.2

So I crafted these based on the suggestion I've received and they're alot better than my current gloves, just that it doesn't have Dex, which my current gloves do (need 31 Dex,current gloves gives 32 Dex).

I'm new to crafting so what do you guys suggest? I was thinking of waiting for Annuls to come into Standard and just try my luck there to free up a suffix and use Haku to put on Dex. Suggestions?

Towards the end of my time playing Harbinger I wound up putting a passive in a +30 Dex node, and also getting an ES/DoT/+Dex jewel for one of my jewel sockets. Made my life a lot easier, and it made crafting gloves a lot cheaper. You could try that =)

Do you guys have some tips for Chimera?

im really struggle surviving his add phase, since these bastards are taking nearly 3k of my ES per hit. I can sometimes kite them around, so my RF is killing them, but this only works as long as i have quicksilver up.

Boss itself is a pice of cake, does nearly no damage.
I also tried to pop Rumis, witchfire and sorrow flask, same issues, as long as they are up i can kill some of them, but after this i die if i have to move.

You could try to use a decoy totem to take some of the heat off of you if you're not fast enough. You need to anticipate where your enemies are going to be and stay right on top of them. Use con effect on your RF and make sure you are on top of them at all times. The mini-boss add always comes out the right door on the last wave of adds, so you want to be sure to save your flasks for it rather than wasting them all at the beginning of the adds phase.

Here's a video of mine:

Granted, your es/dmg will be lower but the basics of the fight should be the same. Try to stick to the respective corners when fighting them and always travel to them first, don't let them come after you or you'll get ganged up on. Be sure to be right on them when they are coming out of the door.

Good example from the fight of how to get on the boss adds when they come out can be seen here:

If above tips from Ahfack don't help, you could try using a setup like Shield Charge - Faster Attacks - Fortify instead of your Lightning Warp. Gives nice dmg reduction for the adds, and improved movement speed with the shield charge for when you're out of quicksilver.

Yep, always some good advice as well.

So I've played this build in all kinds of variations. Pohx version and Yalani's, Life and Low Life, with and without Scorching ray. But this version.... Oh man let me tell ya!

So I'm a absolute fanboy when it comes to RF. I love the mechanic and that you really have to build around this gem so it doesn't kill you! It's the most expensive build I ever had! And also the saves, strongest and most fun one!

I dumped a LOT of currency into that character but just yesterday I got the Helmet as the last piece of the Pain Train that is now perfectly working. I would never change anything besides Mirroring Ahfack's stuff to make it perfect.

My Gear:


I can farm everything in the game with this setup. Shaper, Uber Atziri, Hall of the Grandmasters you name it's no problem with this build. And not only can you play brainless if you want by turning on RF and walking around, maybe drop a Orb of Storms here and there. You can also play very acitvely with Scorching Ray and Warping around. And for uber lab farming this build is just insane! No brain walk through traps don't give a damn! ;D

The defensives on this build are absolutely insane and you only have to worry about no regen. You are Block capped for the most part, You have insane regen, All your resists are over 80% and you got a Good amount of Armour so you midigate the small hits as well. And on top of all that good stuff you get very good DPS 1.4 million with my current gear.

For me this is by all means the best Allround build ever! It is a bit costy but which build isn't costy on a high level? ;)

Hope you all have fun playing this build and thank you Ahfack for making this version for the endgame :D <3

How are you block capped? Apart from Bastion of Hope's "50% additional Block Chance for 1 second every 5 seconds"?

@Ahfack and anyone playing this build with around 13k ES or less:

Pré 3.0 ES nerfs it was not worth it to take the 4 nodes from MoM over 4 x 6% ES nodes, because the ES nodes gave you more ES. However, with the flat ES values nerfed after 3.0, the 6% ES nodes became less valuable because there is less flat ES to scale off. As a result the 4 MoM nodes have become stronger, since they give you flat ES based off mana with guardian Ascendancy.

Did some testing, and at around 13k ES I get 100 more ES from the MoM nodes than I do from the 6% ES nodes. So not only do you get more ES, but it also makes it a lot easier to sustain RF casting.

My advise for anyone not playing standard and/or having less than 13k-ish ES: spec into MoM nodes instead of the 4 x 6% ES nodes in the tree. To be sure on the difference for your specific build, use Path of Building to test.

@Ahfack: maybe you want to add this to your build guide seeing as this will be applicable to the majority of people playing this build?

Yeah, I've gotten a lot of feedback about the MoM nodes. I'll make a league-based tree for 3.1 - no sense in doing it before in case something changes though. Thanks for input/feedback!
