Would Atziri's Promise be a good idea for this build? Just thought I would ask because Avatar of Fire would convert half the damage that comes from the flask.

Hey!

At the moment (Level 63), I am dealing 17k DPS with golem and ancestral warcheif up.

To be able to do T15 maps or end game contents, what is the DPS I should be looking at?

Ouch! A death not to elemental reflect but I guess the Blast Rain explosions on a T15 Shaped Quay are just too deadly. There is no way you can react to that since they all explode (and not visually visible) at the same time (almost).

I did this boss many many times before and he never even got me below 90% HP.
In this case though, it was a combination of many things coming together.
Before I die you see me actually drop kind of low to the blast rain:

This is simply due to the fact that this map had the reduced life recover mod, so my leech couldnt
really keep up with the damage, but it was still manageable.

But then when the rare mobs spawned, they rolled an elemental reflect, as can be seen here:

You can see the outline of the elemental reflect aura.

This would also still not have been enough to kill me probably, but there was also a Soul Conduit Mob, which revived the Ele Reflect one which meant that I essentially went through its HP twice.

So yeah, high Boss dmg + Low Life Leech + High Elemental Reflect Damage killed me in the end. :)

Will now upload the videos I mentioned before and post again. :)

Ok, so the videos are now online.
I did not have time to edit them in any way, so they will just be the complete run every time.
But you can just skip ahead to the actual boss fight for each video.

Please keep in mind that I attempted almost all of those bosses for the very first time.
It really shows in Shaper's Phase 3, where I was completely overwhelmed. :)

Sadly I do not have Zana in Standard, so for the fights where I did have to refresh my flasks, it takes a little bit longer. :(

I did not change my flask setup for any of the fights, so this could all be done way more efficient.
I just used my normal mapping flask setup for all the bosses.

Pretty easy fight. I just played it a little too recklessly which dropped me very low at one point.

Xoph:

Easy fight for this build.

Tul:

Also pretty easy. I did not even dodge his most deadly attack properly and was still fine.

Uul-Netol:

Almost as easy as Xoph. Really not too much to worry about with this build.
I probably didn't even have to refresh my flasks there.

Chayula:

This fight is pretty hard with -60% chaos resist. Even though I did manage to kill him without dying, I would not recommend doing him on HC with this build/flasks setup/chaos resistances. :)

Chimera:

Overall very easy to handle. The only time you actually lose life is when he goes into his smoke cloud phase, where it took me a little longer than necessary to find him, because I wasn't quick enough due to my lack of experience.
Although it should be mentioned that I ran this as a white map, because I simply forgot to roll it. :)

Hydra:

Also very easy in my opinion. Even though I think I do a pretty good job of dodging her abilites, I think that you can even play this fight a lot more sloppy and still be fine. The map has 40% Extra Elemental Resistance mod so it takes a bit longer to kill her.

Phoenix:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ycDba-Psp-s
I think that Phoenix and Minotaur are significantly harder for this build than the other two guardians simply because of their one shot potential. You can see that I was a little bit too slow one time and it almost killed me. As a cyclone build you do not have control over your character 100% of the time and those few milliseconds delay before you can react can actually matter. :)

Minotaur:
Was not recorded for some reason. Will update later.

Atziri:

Shouldn't come as a surprise that this is very easy. Everything just dies way too quickly.

Uber Atziri:

Uber Atziri is of course a different story. :)
The Vaals went pretty smooth and I think that you can kill them like this pretty consistently every time. The trio is actually also not a big problem. I just forgot about the mechanic of the fire guy, that you cannot attack him when he is buffed. Doh! :)
Atziri herself I actually played pretty bad. But yeah, the fact remains that you can die if you only screw up once (I even got lucky a few times when I got hit by a flameblast and survived). I have a different strategy in mind which I will try and let you know how it went. It is certainly doable deathless but other builds are far more suited for this fight. :)

Shaper:

Yeah well, what can I say. Considering the difficulty of this fight I didn't really expect to get far on my first attempt. Because of that I was pretty surprised how well it all went.
But then I got to phase 3...
Just watch for yourselves, I suck. :)
