[3.10] Bashtart's SPARK INQUISITOR * farming like a god! :)
|
Hey! Im really enjoying your build so far. lvl 88 sitting at 43k dps @ hideout.
Im really struggling with map bosses wich are higher than t11. Map clear in the other hand is pretty insane. Can you or someone check my profile for improvements, i know my gems are still lvl 19 but it seems impossible to kill the bosses. All help is appreciated!! Thanks! -MrDecaDuro Ps, i know spark isnt ideal for bosses but im struggling so hard at em, someone boasted how they killed those with 5-link? i dont know how that's even possible. |

" I guess the best advice is to just skip bosses but I also know that is not what you wanna hear. Unfortunately the spark mechanics prevent really good single target dps. I really would recommend to switch to choir of the storm and hypothermia for faster proj.for bosses... this amulett will nearly double your single target dps. Also get berek's grip for more sustain then you can drop your mana flask for vinktars. In general your boss killing abilities will increase with time, levels and better gear. Also work on your skill setups... f.e. you dont have warlord's mark in your cwdt which is really important for sustain in bossfights. Also a second curse would help you a lot. There is so much you still can improve! The best way to progress is to just farm things which are easy :) Last edited by bashtart#2403 on Sep 11, 2017, 4:34:33 PM

" Thanks for the reply! I did some testing, i find Assasin's mark pretty much useless since i delete all mobs in instant (and it doesnt really help with bosses either?) Also, how do you have 50% crit on your spark at hideout? Mines only at 27%. What do you think about increased critical strikes + woidwalkers vs pierce in that 6 link setup? Thanks again! -MrDecaDuro Edit: did some more testing, you are right assassins mark is pretty neat, also against bosses, but my crit is still shit compared to you. what the hell is up with that Last edited by feelmybicep#7822 on Sep 11, 2017, 6:03:27 PM

" The second half of act 10 was quite scary. A lot of mobs + harbringers just jump on your face. Rare heralds of kitava were emptying my mana pool and 2/3rds of my life in 1 hit even at 4000 hp and proximity shields make things difficult for HC. Definately not as safe or comfy as my RF zerker I just hit 70 and started mapping so we'll see how it goes. Again Im using pledge of hands for fun so I'll see how it works. Sitting at 40% crit in HO " Have you considered leveling and keeping a storm call + icebite + hypothermia on hand to swap out spark + proj speed and pierce for bosses? Im using Choir of the storm which helps a lot but will test a Storm Call setup today. |

" Even if you can only apply one curse at each enemy... get warlord' & assassin mark into your herald curse setup because the generate charges will stay their duration. For me it is more a decision between "added lightning damage" or "increased critical strikes" (with it +50% crit chance in HO). The reason why I decided to take added lightning damage is that we use a diamand flask which charges with crits. This flask has a great synergy with it self and crit builds... so it has easy a uptime of +90%. With this flask added lightning damage support is better imo but it can be different with other gear etc. Last edited by bashtart#2403 on Sep 12, 2017, 12:47:08 AM

Hello all,
finally, my videos were uploaded to Youtube. I started to play this build from the beginning of the league. My goal was to beat guardians with this build. I made minor changes in passive tree, equipment and gems. I started with guardians after I reached new level for sure. I did all the guardians and vaal temple deathless, but count like 0-2 deaths per guardian, if middle-hard rolled. For example any Atziri or Shaper is not possible to do. (But don't forget you still play POE, earlier or later you'll be one-shoted anyway). My character is lvl 96, life 6260, Hideout dps: Normal - 105,5k, MF - 86k, passive tree: Some videos (mods are not so hard, increased life/dmg): Hydra: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eictGVvGqgY&t=18s Chimera: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r8hKVC8wM7o&t=2s Minotaur: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WB_93OnbH18&t=29s Phoenix: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LZz8Ra3fASI&t=3s T15 Shaped Malformation (enfeeble, - max res, twin bosses): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oK91oD6nYEM&t=14s T16 Vaal Temple (enfeeble, the rest mods are easy): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bMVOM7_Pq1A MF GEAR:

Gear for T15+ bosses:

Some tips for you: 1) Use Lightning Warp linked with less duration gem during boss fights. (Very helpful, but almost nobody using that) 2) Decoy Totem is very usefull too. 3) Don't use hazardous research jewel. 4) Be elemental weakness capped (even with MF gear) 5) Optional - I have in secondary slot linked: spark + Culling Strike + spell echo for hard bosses 6) Optional - Try to have some chaos resistance on your items. I play T16 maps with MF gear, only for boss fights switch my equipment to normal. I push my both life flasks at the same time if I have less than 1/2 of life (sometimes more than once), that saved my hero so many times. I did mino/phoenix with MF gear, but it takes a long time and it is boring. Also I did no regen Phoenix with one hybrid flask. I can say, you can play T16 maps even with bosses (with 0% exp for sure), but count with possible few deaths in boss fight. There are many better builds than this one for sure, but why no to try that :D I will greatly appreciate if you have any ideas yet to improve anything.

Maybe consider 6-link and quality spark for the projectile speed. For pure speed farming, a 20% quality spark + faster proj. gem will have you clearing packs of mobs from screens away and have more projectiles rebounding. The biggest problem you'll have is trying to find the currency that you heard drop because the mobs were killed from so far away :D

" thanks, that is what i decided to do , bought a 6L decent for 45c, and got myself a culling strike with 20% quality but off coloring my gloves is imposible lol, was thinking on getting an added light damage 20/20 for dmg, but im going with spark +20 and faster projectile 20/20 thanks man :)

" Hi there ... thanks for your report. Seems to be working out pretty good already so I only have a few small suggestions: > I really would get insanity gloves for your movement setup... it will increase clearing speed by a lot > get battle rouse for mana sustain... in combination with mind over matter it will make you much tankier. I really would drop one life flask... two of them seems to be overkill > I really would recommend adding enfeeble in your low lvl cwdt because it really will help you survive. > if you wanna push to lvl 100... do T15 The beachhead maps... I just leveled from 94 to 95 in abot 3,5 hours without dying. It gives about 60m XP per hour (12m Xp per run) bash I changed again the spark setup... instead of added lightning damage i agin use critical strike support. With all our crit synergies it is just the better option imo. Last edited by bashtart#2403 on Sep 13, 2017, 4:23:23 AM
