[3.X] SPECTRAL SHIELD THROW DeadEye (100% phys and 90% ELE. 1,5-2M DPS REALISTIC GEAR non-crit!)

Gloomfang was just 20c about 10hs ago, so it really is not that bad. Crafting a huge dps shield is probably the only way to make the single target boss damage bearable coz I can't think of any other way to make up for that lack of damage; it'll be tough losing 180 flat hp but it's probably the only way. Granted I'm not fully geared yet, but arround the 7 to 8 tier maps boss kills are starting to get annoying (only using a 5L though but I can't see it making that much of a difference).

I'm assuming Wise oak can be a good adittion if you're able to balance the resists in terms of extra dps.

There's also the chance of getting a broken af elder scepter with triple extra elemental damages :P
Yes i agree single target is lacking. Why? Several reasons
1) lack of attack speed. No double foils like Frost Blades can have.. so.. just half speed at best.
2) lack of crit scaling. It's nearly impossible to scale GENERIC crit across the tree because it's either crit for spells or crit for specific weapons. And we have a projectile attack... so..We are gimped.
All of these combined make the skill itself pretty gimped in terms of both clearspeed and single target damage. It's berable, it's NOT BAD and far from terrible, but the problem is there are plenty other skills and setup that greatly surpass SST and can be scaled much better in the end-game.

It's not like a Bonkers Single Target Molten-Strike Build, but it's decent, then you know what to do.

I just playing it and i have to say, that it is an awesome Build for FAST Mapping and a Mediocre Boss Dmg on a Low budget at the moment. Think that will work well to T14.

The fated new Unique Belt ,,The Nomad'' gives you a decent push of roundabout 25%.
i dont see anything that procs endurance charges on the ele build , but u have immortal call .. tell me what im missing plz
Is there any Herald usage in the Ele build? I'd assume Ice, since the early parts grab cold damage...
Just a tip, don't roll SST as a starter. Roll with it if you want average clear speed and lousy ST damage. Fork is awful, chain is decent but the explosion could end up few screens away, would be great if the bring back the explosion at every chain hit.

Targeting monster is so bad and damn annoying.

Go play frostblade and you will enjoy the game more, until they fix this lousy gem.

No herald, we use blasphemy with projectile weakness instead. It gives much more damage

I would argue with that. I am playing SST as a starter and have no problems whatsoever, one-shotting trash mobs and damage is exactly the same as frost blades. But granted i am not a newbie player, so i know how to level up with any build.
Complaining about targeting monsters? Really??? This is how it SHOULD be in a game. Not pressing 1 button and destroying screens. People got used too much to the powercreep and "10 second strand VFB" meta.
I perfectly undertstand why people complain, currently there are too many skills that clear much faster and do more damage. This is just a powercreep problem that GGG implemented themselves over the years. And then they introduce a few new gems that's don't destroy screens and people complain..of cause.

You must really enjoy the slow playstyle.
Not everyone wants to see a map cleared without moving too far past the starting portal, you know. Some of us enjoy fighting bosses and enjoying taking our time savoring the kills we do get. Of course, last league I did use a lawnmower build, and it was fun for a while, but it grew old quickly.

I like the idea of actually engaging in a fight with something, much like you would a raid boss in WoW or a boss fight in Zelda.
