Any idea if this build will be updated by launch of Metamorph?

I'd like to use it for the new league!

There is one thing i noticed in your build.
You are using The Berserk buff despite having no Rage.
Do you bypass it or is it a fail? :D

Thanks for updating to 3.9 Fiver!

I'm a new-ish player and plan to use this build for league.

I'll be sure to follow your Twitch and give some support, especially considering the hard work it must take to update things in such a short period of time! I'm happy to show my appreciation for that.

Cheers!

hey Fiver really loving the build :D

i have 1 question though if you've got the time for it

whats your take on the awakened cold penetration??
ive tried messing around in PoB and switching out hypothermia for it and the DPS seems to be the same although the cold pen% gives us.. well cold pen% :)

does PoB take the cold pen% into calculation of the actual dps??

Items wrote:

Maim still might be available on body armours, just not from fossils, but until further notice I have removed it from the build.
Elemental penetration on weapon is nerfed.
Watcher's Eye is probably not going to be something that we'll see a lot of, so I've removed it from the build.
Shaper's Touch are probably gonna be slightly more expensive than previous leagues, but since they are such a common drop from shaper, I don't think they'll be super expensive.
There are new modifiers on items that will likely mean that more items will be replaced though. This is something that I'm going to have to change during the league.
Mark of the Elder might turn out to be very expensive, so that's something that I will have to look over. I have removed it from the budget version.

Gems wrote:

Ruthless is replaced with Melee Physical Damage. Or more specifically the awakened version of it. It will give us a lot of damage, but also intimidate, which makes it better than ruthless.
Hypothermia might be replaced by Awakened Cold Penetration. This is something that I haven't tested yet, but until you have the Awakened version, Hypothermia will be better.
The damage from the awakened gems are not accounted for in this PoB, so the DPS output will be a lot higher than the displayed values when you have them.

No changes so far.

Multi-modding isn't going to be as good this league, which means it's going to be harder to get good claws. How hard it's going to be, and what effect this will have on the build remains to be seen.

There are new modifiers that may cause changes in the itemization. A +1 to power charges modifier has been shown on helmets, which leads me to believe that there is a similiar modifier for frenzy charges. Depending on what item this modifier can be rolled on, we will likely be changing more stuff.
