Having lots of fun with the build this league. Started with the V1 W&S, but was too squishy imo so I switched to the PoH version and having fun, only dying on hard content (mastermind 83 cause rusty on mechs, havent tried uelder yet but prob will die cause rusty too, and Esh in maps cause that ball lightning stacking is broken)

Wondering if the V2 build is worth going for if I'm already pretty deep into the PoH one? Or is it relatively similar in term of survivability.


Also, I'm mostly playing duo and my duo is going to be playing a Fire build. What would be a good Cold skill to use to apply EE so that I dont gimp his damage?


V2 is basically a tank build. You'll pay for it with DPS.

The PoH v1 build is actually last league's build and it's a balance of DPS and survivability. It's actually not fully optimised though. The next major build update will be PoH v2 and it will focus on DPS.

All the cold skills are pretty bad for EE proc.

Have you considered using fire spectres?

The biggest issue is the lack of dex.

If needed, the V2 tree paths next to +30 dex nodes, grab those while you're hunting for upgades.

Trigger wand pushes the build to the next level purely due to the automation. I truly believe it was the most significant thing to come out of Betrayal league - autocasting two key spells & freeing up the castbar.

I hope you can get it soon.

Hey Kay :)

I've decided to test a bit the second version of this build and wanna ask cause I am not sure about something:

Armageddon Brand applies Elemental Weakness curse (-50% elemental res)

Is elemental weakness applies auto or I must use armageddon brand to activate it when/if needed? :)

It's linked to Arma Brand with Curse on Hit, so cast your AB to get both.

I just finished reading (skimming) through all 600 pages of this thread. There was some discussion earlier on regarding Vis Mortis vs Rotting Legion. Now that V2 of the build is out and is tankier than before, which chest piece do you think is better? I'm still using a tabula, so I'd like to know before I try to get a 6-link body.

Thanks!


I would go with Vis because of Meatshield support on Rotting Legion. I find that the SDs either stay next to me or lag behind, so I'm not so sure it's good.

I suggest you try it yourself. get a level 1 meatshield and link it in. Run something simple like Act 10 and see if the spectre behaviour is OK for you.

That means I should cast AB all the time no matter I am doing some bosses or just mapping, right?
Achieved 5M Shaper damage per Slave Driver (4 spectre setup) (including skitterbot shock + carnage chieftain frenzy + EE)

Also 187K Shaper damage per Zombie (9 Zombies Total)

Temporal chains, Enfeeble, Wrath, Haste, Clarity, Summon skitterbots are active all the time

Spoiler


Thanks again for the build!

Cast it on enemies don’t get melted instantly.

From personal experience, I’ve only casted it on bosses.

I was casting Armageddon Brand to apply Elemental Weakness all the time, even in maps and kept seeing everyone say to just use it for bosses. I realized what I was doing wrong is to use Flame Dash to proc EW in maps (and allows you to move fast too) and that way you are still getting the damage buff of EW but not having to stop moving to cast Arma. Then for bosses you can just use Arma to proc EW.
Ok I just killed Uber Elder with this build with pretty bad gear (no gem levels on wand, no spectres chest etc). If anyone interested heres what I used:

Wasn't deathless but Im not that experienced with the fight (killed him maybe 5x before). My spectress got wiped twice so be carefull where you convocate them. With better gear should be much easier and even now wasnt that hard.
