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

Hello. I really enjoy this build. I got my frostferno (uncorrupted), point blank skirmish, chin sol, gang's and 1socket tombfist. I want to ask , why the hell am i SO fragile ? 1 hit from every magic monster takes AT LEAST 1/5 of my hp away, jot talking about getting oneshot by unique bosses or syndicate members. Any help please ? Only way for me to regain HP now is my life flask that is empty 24/7 because of that. I have capped res. Please, help me. Thanks :)

Swap flammability for enfeeble?

Otherwise: It's a totem build. You'll be fragile unless You go chieftain or slayer/chieftain ascendant - and even then, it's not meant to be tanky.

Why are your links to your talent trees horribly outdated

Yeah I second that.

build is amazing though :), does someone have advice on correcting/update the build link?

thanks

Not sure if it was mentioned in the thread before, but i recommend grabbing "Sign of Purpose" node instead of two mana reg as your 4th. Brands are super nice to use after slapping down totems, and you get a free 20% (!) increased damage debuff on a boss with that node from them. Also a super comfortable way to apply curses btw. I use Storm Brand in my Arc Hiero setup so far (am planning to transition into Ele Hit eventually with the right gear and currency), and it's just lovely for applying curses and debuffs.

i honestly think multiple totem is simply bad and not useful at all.
I'm pretty sure is a damage up only if you have 1 totem and it gets you to three

What would you use instead?

Also, has anyone compared Chin Sol to Quill Rain with this build? Quill Rain has higher tooltip for me and seems pretty strong.

Could anyone advise on an alternative to Yoke of Suffering amulet? Atm it costs 7ex on betrayal, so its waaaay over my budget. Would appreciate the help :D

The clear is still very good with just the regular links combustion + EDWA. I agree that multiple totems is not very useful even for clearing because two totems just kills most packs instantly anyway. I used it for a bit and did not notice much a difference... although the quality for faster totem placement might be something to consider.

As for Chin Sol vs Quill Rain you have to remember that Chin Sol has the mod "50% MORE damage with hits at close range" that will not show up on tooltip. However I think Quill Rain is smoother for maps with the increase in proj and attack speed. Personally using Chin Sol though and not really worried about it. I would recommend trying both yourself and see which you prefer.

Just get a rare amulet with high "increased elemental damage with attacks", life, and resistances. Bonus for %increased fire damage or fire damage to attacks.

Yoke of Suffering is uber expensive right now because of the changes to Elder Guardian specific item drop chance making the item a bit more rare. It will obviously go down steeply over the next couple weeks as the supply increases, but will likely remain quite a bit more expensive than previous leagues unfortunately. Hopefully it's not too bad :)

Hints:

1) get a "blood of karui" flask with a decent roll -> better than all blue life flask.
2) get a flask with "immune to curses during flask effects -> will help alot against sysdicate member.
3) get all your utility flasks with / to increased duration + 20% quality for even longer duration.
4)If you feel the need, get / change some damage notes in the tree to life notes. (blood drinker -> invest 3 points = 14% increased life).
-> Get a Kaom´s heart, as soon as possible.
5) use a solid amulet with life roll
6) I´m aware that it is the third day of the league, but try to get abyss jewels with life rolls.
7) use enfeeble curse aura instead of damage aura (flammability).
8) use grace aura instead of haste aura for more evasion

This will help a lot.

Cheers
