Just Another KB Build

Hahahah you forgot to include a gif, then it would've been a 10/10 impression <3

Ya, life allows for more flexibility with unique item usage (sans coe) and you can cover res easily with boots instead of using skyforths.

btw i can sum up the build like this;

completely trashes melee, any offscreeners, miners, all EA's were 4-0 so far, can kill any tank build with in 2 or 3 shots etc. The build is absurdly strong because it capitalizes the best aoe overlapping skill and spell damage & dual wield synergy. i can one shot 14k ES with a lucky shot.

75/75 block dodge is way better solution vs to this build than stacking ES, there is one guy zaychonka with 4.5k life he doesnt die in 2 shots while im using BCR. while 25k ES bblock builds die in 2 shots.

I think you would have a hard time against something like flameblast. Smoke mine is just so good vs stuff like KB. Herald of thunder should also be a painful against this

KB has always had no mid/close-range game without frost wall. If someone had enough Eva/dodge and some insanity gloves with highest IAS possible leap slam to help close the gap, they would stand a fighting chance. As we all know because of the sparktards a couple leagues back, leap slam avoids all projectiles while you're in the air. Thank God they at least fixed frost wall collisions lol.

So basically if someone works hard to achieve all of this, then you would just EA wall-spam the entire time which would make you no better than the cancer you hate so much lol. Yet another reason not to give a fuck about pvp, wall spam AoE overlap has been the easy win button against melee for how many years?

there are 3 solutions for flameblast, not sure which is best;

1-choosing a good corner, having enough mana regen to sustain fast KB and doing autistic right clicking,
in fyndel vs you matchup it worked good. you gotta have some block & dodge here too.
2-stacking block / mostly dodge, getting very fast(seven-league probably is the best) and giving no spot to hide to your target behind walls with high aoe
3-yolo with current gear

from my poe pvp experiences the more autistic solution you have the better it works, so i guess first one is better. and i have seen first one works really good.

2-Thunder is always a hard matchup, CI has way better chance to win against. KeilC told me he one shots them frequently, even MuamCha in PvP duel areas, since 1v1 areas are very small.

@Ahfack & generally

The strength of KB is, it hits harder to moving targets than standing targets, first KB volley explosion bubbles are not many, so if you are standing you encounter only few. but if you are moving inside the aoe you encounter more of KB explosions and you end up dead. if you are standing, after 2nd attack the area you attack starts filled by explosions.(attack speed is good but having very high attack speed just reduces the actual pvp damage)

+also KB starts doing aoe damage after the proejctile hits a target.

so vs Herald, KB deals a lot of damage because they move fast and they move forward to you,

it's like running in the rain, the faster you run, the more rain drops you get. so since CI has more chance to get out of one shot range, and the dps is enough to get full life in one KB explosion, KB has good chance against.

Life base doesnt have much chance against instead of one shotting or offscreening them. i wish i could test vs muamcha/arrowbebe but he isnt around lately. After CI nerf, things might change.

I'll move to ES base if the "nerfs" we are expecting are not going to be satisfying enough.

I just witnessed Keilc fucking up Killara EA+zerphi at melee distance using Tempest+block. Seem that Keilc tempest hit too often for zerphi lol.

the melee distance weakness of KB is getting erased by block+tempest version. Of course zerphi EA might not have block pen but it tell plenty about the potential defensive side of the build going 1 wand + shield.

I would have a strong guess It was actually winter, he did oneshot me too many times with that when I couldn't block them.

It is the winter enchant. The KB itself isnt thaaaat dangerous

only builds done by lapiz has right to be dangerous. the other are always, meh, bullshit.

needless to say only the items he crafts in HLD porn are good, others are always meh.

if you are not agree, you suck too. inferior scums.
