Glad you like it!

Essence of Delirium on a dagger is the best weapon you can get for this build.

Dmg for contagion is something we don't care about, but no it never hits and thus only provides a degen effect. Whilst ED has a projectile that hits which the DoT effect is based on.

Yeah , i know that contagion do not hit , but if i cast contagion and then hit monster with ED will contagion spread DoT effect from Essence of Delirium weapon ? Also i am using a self-casted vulnerability for more DPS , surprised that you havent mentioned it in guide.

Yes it will as the ED's damage is scaled by the increased damage of Decay :)

Different variations of builds is something I directly promote. Just because I feel comfortable playing in 1 playstyle doesn't mean that everyone else would!

Hi Ghazzy I really appreciate the build it's been a lot of fun to play. I'm very new to the game and I'm wondering if you wouldn't mind telling me what upgrades I should be aiming for besides a helmet without a useless crafted mod on it? I feel a bit low on damage but as I said I'm new and might just suck at playing too.

Hey,

Glad you like it bro!
Absolutely, if you have any questions just fire away :D

So, for upgrades to your gear, for higher tiers you can always look into getting a Lioneye's Vision which grants you about the same dmg but more HP, though it is a lot more expensive than a +1 Tabula or even a Skin of the Loyal.

The HP is very low on your amulet and doesn't even have Strength to further upp your life same goes for the rings though they got a good life roll but if you also add strength to those they would provide much more life for you.

When it comes to damage you've done a very common misstake and it is to use the Consuming Dark for higher tier mapping. Consuming Dark is a very very good dagger for single target dmg however, using an Essence of Delirium on a dagger will grant you an INSANE ammount of extra damage EVEN if the dagger you get doesn't get any extra spell dmg rolls!
So the dagger upgrade would be my first recommendation!


Hope it helped :)

Ah thank you very much for the reply. Would it be worth keeping the consuming dark and switching to it for boss fights or just use the delirium dagger for everything?

Edit: just did my second uber lab run. I did the first with consuming dark and played it safe by just going for 1 key. I did another just now with delirium and spell damage dagger I picked up and holy crap what a difference in damage that is. Went for 2 keys this run and had an ever easier run than the first time. ''Tis build is a lot of fun and in tot I think I've spent ~120 chaos on it and a lot of that was the +1 tabula and some 20 quality gems. Much appreciated.

Hey, im currently leveling this build(I like it) and i was gifted a consuming dark fiend dagger, would it work well?

Hey Ghazzy,

Great build, I've been following it pretty precisely and I'm loving it. I've made it to level 85 HC and I'm wondering where you think I should focus upgrades:

I'm feeling a little light on damage now, but my lack of chaos resists and relatively low life are also making me nervous.

I personally would just go with the Delirium dagger all the way.

Glad you like it bro :)

Consuming Dark is ok but ultimately you'd want to switch over to an Essence of Delirium crafted dagger.

Hey,

Cheers!
Essence of Delirium will help you with the damage for end-game. To sort higher life you can always switch over to a Lioneye's Vision preferably 6L if you are switching from a +1 Tabula. That will give you a bit more life.

Keep in mind that this is a low budget build and even with some more currency input it still isn't the safest build around but damn it clears fast!

Hope it helped!
