[3.2]Abyssal Wander MK III, 6-7.7M Shaper DPS 5.6k -6.2k life, Shaper Kill Vid is Up

I’ve followed these guides for a little while now and I know why your using the reduced mana shields, but do you really feel the trade-off is worth it from lycosidae?

I mean, it’s a crit build, and we’re talking Roughly 15-20% more hits vs a bit more flat damage.

I can’t figure out if it’s because lyco is cost an ex+ (doesn’t sound right) and the other shield so cheap, or if you actually get more function out of it.

lyco was 5ex while writing the guide. (bubonic trail 2 socketds were 4ex) feel free to use lyco if you want.

ok, gotcha.

Yeah, once people found out a few weeks back about how lycosidae where being mass produced for under 50c, they took a nose dive.

I crafted mine, but recently they are in the 100c range (just under an ex).

Thanks for clearing that up as I wasnt sure if I was missing something and should swap over.

no problem, i'll change the guide accordingly after i come from work. : )

Great build! Here's my implementation of it since we're at the end now.

Build, stats and tooltips




Things that still kill me sometimes:


Things that still kill me a lot (so much that I will likely need all portals and may not be able to win):


The helmet CoH setup is mainly useful for mapping. The
build excels at mapping anyway so is there something we can use the helm
for that helps to either kill bosses faster or increase our survivability? Maybe Innervate and Ice Bite? Or Crit supports for damage?

Does POB take bubonic trail increased damage per jewel into account? I've got two abyss socket trail in my stash and I'm trying to work out if it is worth switching from rare boots.

hi ^^

If I were to play this build as a league starter, knowing it's probably not recommended, what would be the fastest way to get to KB?

It would be tough without LA, so I'm thinking with sticking with Iceshot? or sticking with Frostblades? But I heard leveling with Frostblades as a scion would be slow.

it's worth to give a try to new Rain of arrows.

frost blades is really good for leveling.(i'd use molten strike for boss killing)
