Hi, I'm playing the spellslinger version of Vortex - about to swap LL, I'm 92 at the moment and doing very little boss damage in t15/16 maps. What kind of DPS are you guys seeing with pure Vortex LL build? How fast are you killing guardians? Trying to decide if I invest a further 15ex here or build something else.

" If you get all the LL pieces in ShakCentral's POB you will have around 3-4mil Shaper DPS and should kill Map Bosses with Ease and Conqueror in 10-25 second. LL min maxed at 10mil + DPS Can kill all bosses in 3-5 secs including Conqueror's. I currently have a POB with 28mil DPS but requires near perfect harvest Crafting.

So I have this sceptre. What would your next steps be to make this into an amazing Vortex weapon?

Trying to figure out how to run Discipline, Malovalence, and Frost Bite Blasphemy? Where is the reduced mana reserve?

Seems like the leveling tree stops pretty early and I don't think we switch to ci at less than lvl 70 or when we get all lvling tree nodes or maybe we do? Not sure how much es we can get at that lvl

" Personally I would regal it, hoping for a good prefix, then metacraft away the suffixes, put Aspect of the Spider on it and then Multimod Cold Dot Multi+Trigger craft. Probably about as good as you can do in the current market situation, I don‘t think there are even close to enough add/remove cold on the market that you could force the +1 cold skills mod. " Honestly after the leveling tree is done there isnt much useful offensive stuff on the tree left and the only reachable nodes are ES anyway so after 65 you can just pick up the ES nodes that you will need for the CI version anyway.

Anyone running the CI version getting completely blasted by phys damage? The only mitigation I have are flasks (which you can't keep up for an entire boss fight) and a mediocre block chance. I just tried minotaur today and the rocks in the arena were one shotting my 7.3k ES pool. Not sure what I need to do.

Gotta say this was the smoothest league start i've had in years. Damage never really fell off, switched to CI day one and transitioned to lowlife around day 2. Been minmaxing it past few days and and close to done, missing helm enchant and few awaken gems, but this is pretty much as good as this build can get and it feels amazing. Hit 9k+ ES and around 4m Sirus DPS.

Do you have CWDT Immortal Call? That should prevent the actual oneshots long enough to get out of whatever is currently hitting, but overall the build is never gonna be that great vs phys. On LL you can run another Defensive Aura to shore up that weakness but on CI you will probably have to just overpower it with a much larger ES pool.
Small litte update thingy, crafted some nice gloves for around 3 ex and 2 stored harvestcrafts If anyone is interested incrafting process:
Spoiler
Buy ilvl 84 Fingerless Silk Hunter Gloves (When I bought them there were a bunch on the market for 1 ex) Alteration Spam, Augment on either a high resist or a high defensive mod, regal if both affixes are decent. Keep the regal on hitting either a good second resist or a defensive prefix. Took me around 200 alts and 10 or so regal+scours. Fill up the prefixes and suffixes, which might require some harvest crafts, depending on what you hit on the regal. I Personally had an „Augment Lightning“ stored up which can be safely slammed as a suffix, so I crafted a prefix mod and put the resistance on it. Ensure that one of the resistances on the suffix is cold, either via craft or by changing another resistance to cold via harvest (I bought the craft for 20c) Augment Cold, hope for the 50/50 to get T1 Multi. Reason I like this process over fossilcrafting is that it basically guarantees at least one high tier resistance roll and its much easier to get a „passable“ roll once currency runs low, especially since every fossil roll probably costs like 4c right now. E: H00 have you had a look at the thread of hope setup? It frees up a huge amount of passive points at very littlle cost (I think I lost like 10% DPS, 1 AOE Radius and gained a whopping 10 passives, enough to fill out an entire second cluster) The -Res isnt even a big deal, since Snowforged (30% Cold, 10% Fire+Cold Res) sits in that radius.
