[3.10] OneShotKill Elemental Hit Ballista Hiero - 9.6 million DPS - EZ Boss Killer + budget friendly

hello,
Thanks for nice build :)
Im little confused from this talent tree.
In this build I cant make dps (only with balista), right? So my attack with bow is only for give Flammibility to the monsters but without dmg.
So this talents like King of the hills,.... (talents for bows) are only for this balista?

Thanks for answer :)

And another question of the one doesn't undestand a thing here. How do we get frenzy charges if we don't make a damage?


Frenzy skill gives charges if it hits - damage is irrelevant. Wording on skills is pretty precise in this game. And same frenzy skill with "curse on >>HIT<<" curses enemies at the same time.

Same trick other builds use with "unaffected by poison", that does not give immunity to poisons, but lowers poison damage to 0. And other uniques and skills counts how many poisons on you for various things.

So "You can't do damage with your skills" (or whatever it in english) doesn't mean char doesn't hit enemies, right? It means that char does zero damage?

You are correct, we don't do DPS, Ballista does all the DPS.

That is correct.

Sort of, since we don't deal damage. But we do benefit from the non damage part "Knocks Back Enemies if you get a Critical Strike with a Bow" which means if we shoot and crit(still zero damage) we will knock them back.

Yes, that is correct.

I have two questions...

Thie first is what is the need for Avatar of Fire if you have the two unique jewels equipped? You are dealing no fire damage so I don't see what this is doing?

The Rain of Splinters gems seems to reduced DPS when you unequipped the gem from POB? Does the two additional projectiles provide enough of a DPS gain to offset the 30% reduced totem damage?

Thanks.

With the 2 Combat Focus(Crimson and Viridian) Unique Jewel equipped, we are only doing Fire Damage, no Cold and no Lightning. Avatar of Fire is to convert the unused Cold Damage to Fire.

Damage wise for Rain of Splinter is calculated additively, so the damage reduction is not that significant. By default, Ballista Totem only shoot 1 projectile, so the 2 additional projectile makes a Big difference for Map Clearing. Versus bosses without minions, feel free to swap it out for another DPS Jewel if swapping equipment is your thing. :)

I remember playing this build in Delve.. it was truly an experience.

Vei, you've done a remarkable job in keeping the build updated. I don't know how you do it! You have a patience and helpfulness that I class as "remarkable."

I don't have any questions but I wanted to say thanks! :)

Thanks for the fast response but I am still confused? I have the two unique jewels equipped and my stats show that I am doing no cold damage anywhere?

Just not seeing how this works but when you remove it from POB it shows a big DPS loss.
Just current fellengs.
Finished compaign. It was the easiest compaign ever. Even with Arakaali's spiders it was not so smooth, because mobs just ignores them, and ballistas are pretty cool tanks. And after second lab on 55lvl it was like a sliding soapy waterslide with a 90k combined tooltip DPS o) I'm a totem builds fan now o)
I didn't notice anywhere in your previous posts but does this build have any weaknesses on map modifiers (e.g. Physical or Elemental Reflection)

Thanks.
Hi tank you for the build.
Is Kaom still the best option ( aside of a 1x ex crafted multi curse armor ) ?

I've finnaly droped 1 ex and could FINALY upgrade my gd build :D
