[3.27] 🗡The Nightblade🗡Levelling links | Demo video up : Oshabi's Elusiveness

"
Hello :) I'm fairly new to the game (been playing it for just over a month), but I absolutely love this build so far in terms of gameplay, huge thanks for it! Been playing it in standard league (lvl 93 atm, just got to map tier 14 so far), but I've been bothered a little bit by the fact that it mentions certain things this build can't do, both in the head post and in some of the comments... Is this actually a pure physical limitation and I cannot expect to "fully clear" all game's content using it (such as uber bosses, etc.), or does it just mean that it's much less efficient / requires a lot of practice, correct execution of all mechanics, etc.?


Hi ! This is a good question, one actually that has bothered me for years. This build is more than enough for normal bosses but no enough for Uber bosses. So it is stuck in between normal and Uber game.

I agree with Woundshot's answer : there are plenty of contents to not worry about Uber bosses for the moment.

Now, this build is able to deal with some Uber version of bosses, such as : Cortex, Atziri, Shaper, Elder (Uber Elder, but probably not Uber Uber Elder). If you know the mechanics and don't make too many mistakes, they are doable.

But it certainly can't finish the Simulacrum. As for bosses like Uber Lycia or Uber Catarina, there are way too many degen zones and AoE spells in their arenas, so it's hell.

I think the build would have enough DPS for the Uber bosses but it lacks defences.

"
Not the build creator, but as someone who's played the game for a few years I would tell you not to worry about uber bosses for now.


I see you've levelled fast. So you will be our guide in the current league !
Since new players typically ask for levelling PoB links at the start of league, I have followed your progression and made PoB of your character.
I will add them in the first post.

Spoiler
Level 7 - Cobra Lash 3-link
Level 33 - Cobra Lash 4-link + Blade Flurry
Level 55 - Blade Flurry 5-link

Appreciated!

Also, reporting in. Levelling was smooth sailing. Switching to Goblinedge x2 was a huge bump in DPS, and it was at that point that I could ditch chance to poison gem for Withering Touch. Mapping so far is also going great.

Still trying to find a starkonja's with 3 red sockets instead of 2. Have to do without Blood and Sand active for now.

PSA: Do not make my mistake, do not spec Beyond early. It's hell.
