There are 2 ways to look at the body armor slot as a DPS slot or as a Life slot. For Life For DPS Rare Shaper Chest - Spells have +#% to critical strike chance, Life, resist This chest removes the need to Path to shadow start and take the pure talent jewel. Thus saving 5 passive points and opening a full jewel socket up to the build. Also gives you an extra 6 link to do with as you will. _______________________________________________________________________________ Belt

(Frenzy Attack Rate * Volatile Dead Average Hit Damage * 4)+ (Frenzy Attack Rate * Volatile Dead Corpse Explosion Average Hit Damage * 4) It is always best to Name lock the boss to get maximum damage from corpse explosions not needed but its like 1m extra sharper DPS Last edited by Defnotblack#3058 on Jan 9, 2018, 1:57:03 PM Last bumped on Jun 18, 2018, 2:42:57 PM

This variant of poet pen build is stronger than other builds out there.
Just a few questions, what is the strongest ascendancy in your opinion, regadless of currency? And why do you say that Necromancer is buggy at the moment? Last edited by H0X9#4347 on Jan 10, 2018, 12:56:26 PM

Hi and thank you for this build.
Why do you use "orb of storms" and "vaal lightning trap" and how ? I don't understand how to use it. Thanks |

" The Strongest Variant is Inquisitor for Bossing I think in a perfect world I can scale the damage over 7 mill as inquisitor and only upto about 4 mill as most the other classes. Necromancer is buggy because if its scaling attack speed sometimes it will skip casts even when you don't surpass the breakpoints I believe tarkecat had a video showing it and nothing has been done to fix it. On a side note if you wanted to run atzrir with the build I would choose Scion or Elementalist for the reflect reduction. The damage is scaled so high you just 1 shot yourself if you pre-stack.

" The Lack of Cooldown gear is minimal you just scale less attack speed and more towards spell/fire damage. I would say about 7-9% damage loss there The helm enchant for simplicity's sake is 25% of a damage loss. It does however vary because of corpse explosion and overlaps with 4 corpses sometimes you'll miss an explosion or 2 on the boss making it closer to 20% damage. For refrence: Budget Gear Under 5ex Just remove CD rolls on gear Pastebin: https://pastebin.com/26hC5RuB 3.97 APS 125k Average Damage VD 55k Average Damage Corpse Explosion 3 VD explosions 3.97 * (125,000 + 55,000) * 3 = 2.1m shaper DPS actual damage loss of about 40% You may not 1 phase shaper at this level of DPS but it would be close. Would not be a hard fight Last edited by Defnotblack#3058 on Jan 11, 2018, 4:49:25 AM

" Orb of storms is only there to proc Instrument's of Virtue it's just redundant if I cast my ice golem to early. If you were having a hard time scaling your attack speed this is a good place to put Blood rage into the build. Vaal Lightning trap is in the build to shock endgame bosses. It increases the builds damage significantly. It does not work on shaper first phase because you wont have souls but every other phase afterwords just drop it at the bosses feet and go HAM. :) |
