Duelist - [3.12] KissMeQuick's Gladiator Reave: REBORN — T19 100% Maps & A8 Sirus Deathless

Hi All, Loving this build. It seems to be a fantastic way to balance map clearing and boss killing, in my experience. The issue I have is that my survivability seems to be less-than-stellar. I've replaced a lot of my gear recently with more HP-oriented gear, but I still can't break the 5k HP mark. I know the guide recommends not using Abyssus until 6k HP, but I'm having a hard time getting there. Any recommendations? Thanks in advance.

Levels also give flat HP. " Morfhii wrote: Hello everybody, So far love the spec - speed, huge dps, have no problem survive. Great job creator! What I would like to ask, why is stat stick with +gain physical as FIRE and COLD scalling sometimes higher than other elements combos? Is it because of Hatred and Herald of Ash auras? For example if you overwrite axe with +Fire and +Cold extra damage to +Fire and +Lightning you are loosing dps (in my PoB). So is it generally better to use axes but always make sure in PoB? We're using Frostbomb( with Frostbite), so cold damage gets amplified. Random element cannot be calculated so you have to change it yourself to a specific one. I don't trust even PoB when it comes to damage.

The stats themselves without enchant would sell for 10C maybe. Also crafting armor doesn't give any extra value to the helmet.

Thanks for the input. So would you advise replacing the mainhand as the next gear upgrade?	Posted by knifesoup#4258 on Jul 4, 2018, 10:19:56 AM Quote this Post

This build has ultra high scaling and all items increase your DPS / defenses drastically so you have to choose yourself. The most maybe top slot would be your foil.

I'm really trying to "beat" the game this League, which just means complete Atlas/Elder/Shaper as I have never done it before. This build has been working well for me, but I feel a bit stuck in this 15+ Map range. I have 5.5k HP and feel like most of my stuff is good. So not sure if it's a skill gap (very possible) or I can improve some low hanging fruit. I'm also a bit manic with Herald of Ice, Ash, Arctic Armor, and Grace never quite knowing what to use but I tend to use Ice/Ash/Armor so I can Curse on Hit Warlords for Endurance charges or Vulnerability. The Frost Bomb felt SOOO awkward I couldn't do it, but have not tried again in a while. Any assistance GREATLY appreciated. Danke :) https://pastebin.com/2DGuPspu	Posted by Pranabindu#1739 on Jul 4, 2018, 11:42:44 AM Quote this Post

Danke :) https://pastebin.com/2DGuPspu Sorry but you have freestyled too much here and taken Twins and Fencing which are not suggested. Also you have not read a great portion of the guide. I have mentioned at least 5x in the guide to have stat stick in weapon slot 1 which you don't have. No Vaal Reave etc. I believe if you read the guide a bit more thoroughly, you'll get the results that you seek for. As for Frost Bomb - Frost Bomb is a flat -25% of decrease in resistances to everyone. While a curse has 80% of effectiveness on Guardians and Shaper which are the real challenge. Feel free to browse my other 2 guide videos on how I use Frost Bomb and when.
