Anyone tried Voidforge flicker in Sanctums? I wonder how viable it is now after they reduced resolve dmg taken for melees. Want to farm Sanctified Relics and Flicker is very good for getting fast Sanctum rooms but not sure about doing actually doing Sanctum.

" well you always took less in melee, they just reduced it even more (not running voidforge myself, i use saviour instead) the main factor is pretty much how much of a glass cannon you are if you can zerk down the mobs quickly you can totally do complete sanctum runs. even your totems might be enough to just kill mobs if dps is high enough (and voidforge has the option for 6l totem which i don't) sanctified relics are very farmable even with flicker in that regard, since you only need area lvl75 (which is t8 maps). so as long as you can clear those quickly enough you can also do sanctums there (delirium may be a decent indicator since that's up to 80% less damage. if you can clear maps with that then the sanctum mobs at that lvl just gonna blow up immediately) for the true sanctum endboss you gonna need lvl80+ (t13 maps) which makes it harder, but still doable with enough investment. and you gonna need some actual tankyness since that boss does not use resolve mechanics. the special condition relics .... you may be able to do a few of the easier ones, but overall better to use on a different character. but since relic locker is shared between characters it shouldn't be much of an issue |

" How much investment do you think is needed for t13/14 Lycia boss? |

Havent had too much time to play. But i'm finding that cold builds are good in sanctum. If you chill/freeze enemies fast, they will not attack you much.

What about last 2 ascendancy point? Should i go for "endless hunger" or
"bane of legends"? Or should I do something different? Any help? |
|
" Yeah, I have heard some people say that it's possible to perma freeze the guards with Frost Blades. Might be a good option since it's also a faster mapper, just lacking in ST like always which could potentially brick the sanctum run at Lycia. |
|
" sorry, hard for me to say. my own build is only like 4-5 div investment (and as mentioned not voidforge) and i can maybe do lvl75 ones at most. haven't even attempted my luck with t13+ sanctums " bane of legends is a pretty standard option there. that 20% more damage against bosses (aka exactly when you need it) is a huge boon, especially if they have adds for the other 10% more. phys reflect immunity is just cherry on-top for non-elemental builds. endless hunger is a much more defensive option, but it just doesn't give all that much in the end. unaffected by bleed is really only important for phys builds relying on red trail. the stun immunity is nice but it mostly just frees up pantheon or unwavering stance and the overkill leech isn't gonna be that much since flicker is more quick small hits, so it won't overkill for tons anyway |

also, a quick fix to running sanctum with melee is to use multiple totems and 4 or 6 link them.... totems are quite good. I'm trying a +1 totem shield now with normal + vaal warchief. They do a lot more dmg than i do actually sinze they dont need to dodge... plus they can block some traps
Frostblades is nice cuz it chills/freezes Last edited by Hollyphantom#4741 on Dec 23, 2022, 5:19:49 PM
