Morning, you need my PoBs? Thought I posted them further back, linking again. Please note that PoB is bugged with Multistrike not giving the attack speed bonus to the projectile dps calc and only the penalty.

Hmm yeah aa for defense is good for leveling, Tempest's Binding is very nice for BF single target, but i want to get my rat's nest back at 100, so far i'm planning to use Darkrav +1 boots but also on 100, for now my priority is defense :)

Nice bro, if you can fit it with the res xD Wake of Destruction with +1 frenzy charge should give you more DPS than Darkay +1

Hi guys, been getting a lot of questions about phys version or a version with crazy DPS. I must say that this would be more expensive and also a bit more risky (Abyssus and melee range) but here you go:


PHYSICAL LIGHTNING STRIKE

- The regular build is scaling flat elemental damage and projectile damage of LS
- This version scales physical damage and the melee hit of LS, this is the highest way to get DPS on LS because the melee hit of LS has base damage of 176% vs. the projectiles of LS (150% base damage each), and there are more ways to get crazy damage multipliers on melee and physical damage now

Note! I have not factored in Shaped/Elder items or Abyss jewels.

Note! You need to use Bleed to get the MOST out of this build, you need 1 stab with Puncture when fighting against bosses, so if you do not like this, please do not try this version.

- Now there are some other OP skills like Blade Flurry, so if you really want just a crazy high DPS build then it would be better to use those other skills, but for people who want to use LS AND get very high damage then I think this is the way to go.


NOTE:
- PoB link below but there are a few things to note:
- Rings: I am just using my rings I have for my crit facebreaker build which just have some phys damage: ideally you want to have GG rings with phys damage, crit, and % ele damage
- Amulet: I have put in Choir of the Storm, but you can get better DPS from a GG phys amulet
- Weapon: this is with Bino's dagger, xD
- Bleed: this build relies on inflicting bleed with Puncture

DAMAGE:
1. Melee phys scaling
- Abyssus
- Lion's Roar
- Bloodlust support gem
- MPD support gem

2. Elemental scaling/conversion
- Phys to Lightning support gem
- Elemental Damage with Attacks support gem
- Hatred
- Herald of Ash
- Elemental Weakness curse

3. General damage scaling:
- Damage on Full Life support gem
- Silver flask for onslaught - high damage boost since we take Raider Onslaught path
- High crit multiplier (from Abyssus) and dagger nodes
- Accuracy and crit chance: Lycosidae, Diamond flask, dagger crit nodes

4. Flask buffs
- Phys build is very reliant on the flasks: this why I go all the way to Witch for Alchemist nodes - this gives me more increased flask effect than even a Pathfinder

5. Other damage multipliers:
- Intimidate from Belt of Deceiver
- Shock - I have turned this OFF in PoB but you will ofc be getting shocks for some damage boost

HOW TO PLAY:
- Just use projectiles for AOE for regular clearing - should have enough DPS for that
- For bosses: go to melee, 1 stab with Puncture to put bleed and Ele Weakness on the boss (will last about 13 seconds which is quite a long time), and then go town with your melee LS hits

NUMBERS:
- Bino's Dagger: about 1.9 million DPS
- Mirrored dagger: DPS nearly double
- If you upgrade my rings and amulet you can get easily above 4 million DPS

Thank you, if you spot any things to improve let me know!

Have you considered tombfist in Abyss? The jewel socket is worth at least as much ele damage as thunderfist, you could get crit multi, you get a lot of life, and intimidate is basically 10% more damage.

Thanks bro - aye that glove is quite nice hehe. I'm waiting for the price to come down a bit xD. For sure if you can get your hands on one and managed to get a nice murderous jewel it would be really good, I think with the jewel for maim instead it would really help to make things much much easier to kite.

Well, you can find a pair with 2 sockets, but it's much more rare and expensive, but then you can get intimidate and maim. I'm playing this as a scion assassin/raider, so I get maim anyway.

The one abyssal socket version is currently real cheap though. 1 chaos or less.

As scion you dont find a bit harder to make frenzy charges? Im levelling the build as scion and super enjoy it, but im thinking about changing curse from projweakness to poacher mark for more frenzy charges!

Yeah, you only really sustain frenzy charges during boss fights. I've been playing around with other ways of getting frenzy charges. Ice bite has been working well enough, but it's not the best damage support. I was actually thinking of dropping raider for inquisitor or elementalist, and using path of the shadow instead of path of the ranger. But the raider perks are still overall very strong, so I dont know.
