Thanks for the build. Will be using this as league starter for 3.7!

Edit: I have a question. I see that your build guide mentions taking Soul Raker as a source of leech for mana and life. However in the pastbin/passive tree, i don't see this taken. Is this intended?

Thanks


No, that is not intended. Maybe your PoB has made an error or smth?

https://pastebin.com/sWw7awzR - that is the PoB with Lycosidae

https://pastebin.com/vkh9kws9 - this is without



Don't panic.

So i'll try this build too in Legion but i have a question about the strength and intelligence. You need for your pob like 60 more int and around 30 more strength. Should we get it on our gear or should we let the gems on lower levels?

Build is working great so far for me. THanks for the guide!

Quick question - The PoB calls for certain gems that based on the gear you provided we dont even come close to the stat requirement (int and str). Might need a quick tweak or so for the PoB.



If you still have Elemental Weakness in the build, that should be changed to Frostbite. Elemental Weakness has 155 int req I think. Frostbite has 90-something. I mistakenly put EW in the build instead. That should more or less fix the issues with INT

But take the 30+ int/str nodes if needed, and then specc out of them when you can. Don't level your Ancestral Protector higher than you can support. At lvl 13, it has 109 STR req. The other STR support gems we use have 111.
Abyssus requires 138, but if you find that hard to reach you can use a Starkonjas instead.


Don't panic.

yooo boiii is the skilltree updated??


Until PoB is fully up to speed with the Skillgems and other calculations, the latest version I have is this. But it will change probably.

Sorry, I removed it, since I only had the "old version".

But basically, get frost blades from the start.
4L Frostblades - Weapon damage with elemental - multistrike - melee physical damage/ancestral call

Use precision aura, herald of Ice and herald of ash until you get hatred. Then switch to Hatred and HoI.

Go for all the life nodes in the passive tree first. (and winter spirit)
Buy 2x Ewar's Mirage if you can. You can use them until you are level 70 if you want to.
Stack flat elemental damage on gear.

At level 68+ you can equip Bloodseeker. This is the point where I usually specc into claws and get the claw nodes with Soul Raker.


Don't panic.
I'm working on a new PoB, but currently Multistrike is bugged in PoB and isn't calculated properly, which makes it hard to get a good PoB done. Gonna have to wait a bit for that.



Have patience, and an up to date PoB will be out when it is fixed.

Until then, this is what I have. I have disabled multistrike and created a flask that is meant to represent it instead. Not entirely sure how accurate it is, but I think it's somewhere between 100% accurate and total bullshit. So....

Hey Fiver,

Thanks for the quick reply. Totally spaced my mind to throw in frostbite great call.

Build is working great when it comes to clearing maps and legions. However, seem to have some issues surviving. My profile is open so gear should be visable (and by no means are my items amazing) but with some of the new legion mechanics and monsters there isnt even a chance to fight back. The character is just kind of falling over.

I still need uber lab which I know will add quite a bit of dodge during onslaught, but also had to swap out darkray vectors as getting those with 4 blue will take a ton of currency atm. Any advice going forward? Ive played both assassin and champ versions of frost blades. This one seems to do a ton of damage and mobility is absolutely insane, but with the range style seems to come the frequent and fast deaths.

Abyssus is only for shaper, who does no physical dmg to you. You need more evasion. Get a starkonja's and take darkrays even if you need to drop the B4L setup for a bit.
It will feel a bit dangerous until you can get a chestplate with 2k evasion or you could swap in an evasion shield.

I will give this a try.

Thanks!
Benjy, thank you so much for helping out and answering stuff in the thread. I am so grateful for everything you are doing, and the help I've gotten from you when making the build. <3
