I farmed quite a lot of lab with this build, 10min average for full key/shrine runs, can probably go faster if layout isn't terrible

The Slayer
The Brutal Fervour Ascendancy Skill no longer grants Maximum Life Leech Rate. Hematophagy and Vitality Void now only grant +3% to Maximum Life Leech Rate (from +5%).

Would it be better to not take brutal fervour now due to how lackluster it will be? It'll give more leech pool and immunity to bleed but thats pretty much it

GGG nerfhammer lolz... I hope the well experienced guide author figures something out because this is an awesome build.

Hmm...

Current leech is 20% of max hp, 10% from brutal fervour, 5% from vitality void, so 35% of max hp, from what i know, Vaal Pact is gonna give double regen and Vitality Void is gonna be 3% so 20%+3% x2 = 46%, it's technically a buff unless i got something wrong lmao

You miss the point that if you choose vaal pact then you have no regen at all just leech.

Uh... my regen is close to zero and it's irrelevant as we have the overleech with pretty much 100% uptime, i guess some people might build different but even if you sacrifice all your damage/hp for % regen you'll get like what, 4-5% of your max hp per second? Compared to overleech 46% max hp/second permanently.

I'm thinking about adapting this guide to maybe fit a Volatile Dead for screen clearing. Maybe a Cast on melee kill + Volatile dead on the cyclone ?

We'll see once the patch notes is out. Hopefully someone smarter than me will have something like that figured out.

Yes. It will be interesting to mix Volatile Dead + Spell Cascade + Cast on Melee Kill + Cyclone into the build. It might work really well with Vaal Breach gem on boss fights but I can foresee it to be really good for mapping.

If only Cyclone is a true channeling skill, Cast When Channeling will be so good on it.

What's stronger that pure dmg or that ignite setup?

I used both. Axe is on ignite setup and Cyclone is on pure damage.

I don't think the Slayer changes will have much impact (if at all) on the build. In worst case scenario, you can just pick up Vaal Pact.

And as mentioned by @Phosphenez, Endless Hunger will simply nullify the negative effect of no life regen from Vaal Pact, transforming the nerf to Slayer into a buff when you pick up Vaal Pact.

But let's wait for the patch notes and 3.1 skill tree.

But now you have to take vaal pact or am I wrong?

How viable is a Scion for League starter as lab Runner?
