[3.10] Volatile Dead Tankomancer | Facetank with eyes closed | Farm t16 while eating pizza*
" I updated gem links in the guide(found a way to get more DPS out of the build), take a look. May be that will fix it, at least a little. |

Just wanted to chime in and say thanks to the OP and everyone else that has contributed to this build so far.
I've never played a Volatile Dead build before or used the Poet's Pen so this was quite fresh to me. I'm really enjoying the change in pace too, not having to have Mathil-like reflexes to survive is a breath of fresh air! It's also great to play a build that doesn't need expensive gear to get going. Just as well as I've only today dropped my second Ex for the league. Yeah, awful RNG for me this league. The only real problem I've encountered is trying to off colour that chest! Burned through all my chromes and had to buy more. I managed to get three blue, two red and a green... but I only have a 5 link and one blue was unconnected. So, here's my recommendation if you only have a 5 link and are struggling with chromes: You can manage with two blue, two red and one green, which is a lot easier to achieve. Cast when Damage Taken (1) - Blade Blast (1) - Curse on Hit (21/20) - Flammability (21) - Increased Duration (20) OK, so that's actually really just a 4 link - the Increased Duration is just a nice to have for boss fights and not really needed because we'll be getting hit frequently enough to trigger it continuously. Because Blade Blast hits it will trigger the curse for us, no need for the Wave of Conviction. Of course, we're missing out on the extra benefits from Wave of Conviction, but until you can get those colours this will get you through. Because of the high health pool of the Kitava Herald, he's surviving early maps quite well so not only do I get the added descrate damage, but I also have a side-kick to help in battles :) Oh, and I'm also using Enduring Cry manually cast. The Endurance charges are nice extra damage mitigation and taunting everyone to attack me means enemies happily rush straight into our desecrate explosions. Stupid beasts! Looking forward to taking this build further into the game! |

" You need to buy 1000 chromatic for 100c, go to the bench and craft "at least 3 blue sockets". If you got wrong result, remove armor from bench, recolor with 1 chromatic, put on the bench, and craft "3 blue" again. I successfully recolored two 5-link crab armors that way. PS: actually 2 blue + 1 one green on bench have better effect, but 3 blue also ok Last edited by nevodka on Apr 25, 2020, 1:40:39 PM

" thx for advice, but why do i need it? i have a lot of leech from Doryani, i cant overleech it with gain on hit. yeah i have some troubles vs Hydra but its not much. due to build and nice Divine Flesh if my hp goes down its going very slow and i have time to react :) achievements for today - lvl 96 and its reason for some crazy action :) HoG is possible with that build!!! woohoo, but idk why do you need it? maybe not every HoG, maybe not deathless but possible. just nice to have ruby flask vs RFs and something like atziri promise flask for chaos resist, if you meet guys with despair or any other kinds of reducing your chaos res Uber Elder is hard for me :) coz as always i didnt watch any tutorial, idk mechanics and it was my first Uber ever. too many rays, beams, slow-mo, degen zones, and all other bad things on one screen. with deaths but still i won haha and happy and Cortex facetanked dont even wanna try Uber Atziri anymore :) gl&hf | |

Firstly, i built some chars this league and not one can carry me on with sirus or 20 waves. So thank you!
1. Have you tried uber atziri? I tried today and got i shot due (due to reflection i guess). So if there is, you should put it as a cons. 2. Also how versatile it is for the Hall of grandmaster? 3. One last request is if you have couple mins to spare, please help looking into my char and instruct me what i should improve. Thanks What is dead may never die!

Şo I made some minor changes, inspired by pisundra :)
https://youtu.be/XzN6DDvOa8E That's the result. Can't stand in the dots on the ground but everything else is ok... https://pastebin.com/AnV9e6LC This is how I have it set up now. This feels like it gives me a good mix of attack and defense and is still around 5-10ex in cost. Unless prices change :) 1 free socked in my chest but nothing I really want in there... maybe faster attacks but that means rolling 5 off colours :) but this way my barrage is 4 mana and that works perfect for never going oom :) edit: yes... I HAD to use that song... it makes me chuckle when i watch the vid and fits well with the framedrops I was getting :) Last edited by PROdotes on Apr 25, 2020, 1:50:25 PM
