Duelist - [3.15] Spectral Shield Throw Bleed Gladiator - tanky & fast mapping - good scaling - all content - Forum

I should have clarified that it doesn't affect this builds bleed. Flat generic physical damage will scale to bleed on instances where bleed is using the damage of the weapon. This isn't for this build though because our bleed doesn't scale from our weapon damage - it comes from the shield. So flat physical damage on weapons won't help us, but physical damage "to attacks" will help us a bit, but not loads. You could have a 500 pdps weapon or a 5 dps weapon, and they'll do exactly the same damage. Here's some examples from Path of Building Last edited by Zarasi on Aug 12, 2021, 4:12:10 AM	Posted by Zarasi on Aug 11, 2021, 7:01:27 AM Quote this Post

I should have clarified that it doesn't affect this builds bleed. As zuadao mentioned, "to attacks" (which is what the craft is) does nothing in general other than impact damage from SST. Flat generic physical damage will scale to bleed on instances where bleed is using the damage of the weapon. This isn't for this build though because our bleed doesn't scale from our weapon damage - it comes from the shield. So, neither flat physical damage or physical damage "to attacks" will help us.

But doesn't "adds x to x physical damage to attacks" on other items increase bleed damage?

It just increases impact damage from SST, but it doesn't affect bleed. EDIT: After further testing, physical damage to attacks does actually affect bleed damage, but not by much. On my tests, a maximum crafted roll of 5 to 8 physical damage to attacks on gloves added 0.3% to my overall damage.

Could someone take a look at my SC character (name is WhyAmIStillDoingThisToM) and tell me how much currency I would need to convert to SST and have similar power levels? Here is the PoB as well in case someone would like to see it: https://pastebin.com/UCYxMdP7 So, any ideas?

This build says 2k armor shield is enough for all content, my question is how? I am running almost 2,9k armor shield and other gear similar yet i cant even get 1 mil sirus dps	Posted by baidoweb on Aug 11, 2021, 11:23:36 AM Quote this Post
This can be somewhat tough doing SSF but at 82 I finally have all the right socket colors ! Be careful because when you corrupt your well rolled Prismatic Eclipse it can change to a Rare. Probaly did it in a different way because I am really casual player and half of most everything is an unknown to me even though I started playing the first year. Thanks for the build I am having fun throwing my shield !	Posted by Oinkus on Aug 11, 2021, 12:28:18 PM Quote this Post

As for sirus, 1m dps is enough to kill sirus deathless since our blocks really helps out a lot.	Posted by ericchongws on Aug 11, 2021, 12:46:31 PM Quote this Post
