Duelist - [3.14] Gannicus, God of the Arena – Deathless Uber Elder for Everyone - Forum

Can someone look at my character (GrindyReroll) and help me out why my damage is so insanely low and what I can do to improve that on the cheap? Even blue mobs take multiple seconds on T9 maps. Survivability is not an issue, I mainly need more levels for more life and more damage for better leech. And not falling asleep during boss fights.

Ultimatums as long as I don't pick the wrong mods are literally just a walk in the park. Just trying to figure out why my damage is only something like 50k dps on PoB. Probably just cus I don't have several ex to spend on expensive swords :D What does it matter what PoB says? You probably haven't checked some option. Nothing will change if you do and it shows a higher number. You're using Maligaro's without a diamond. That doesn't make sense. It's free damage. In general none of your flasks make sense. And no totems? More free damage there...

Haha, yeah only switched to Maligaro's this morning, still need to get around to changing flasks, though I like my current flasks I can probably drop mana at this point in exchange for diamond, brain kinda fried.	Posted by willdman123#7331 on Apr 22, 2021, 9:16:34 AM Quote this Post

I will really apreciate if you will look to my build and say your opinion about what i can improve and what i need to do first.

Which quality enchant of bladestorm do you use? thx for the build, third time using it and loving each second.	Posted by Brahmaguete#7410 on Apr 22, 2021, 1:02:03 PM Quote this Post
" GrindcoreFTW wrote: Done, my damage barely changed. So you went from 120 crit multi to 300 and you say nothing changed? Well your gear isn't terrible so you must be doing something wrong. How much is your crit chance? " Brahmaguete wrote: Which quality enchant of bladestorm do you use? thx for the build, third time using it and loving each second. Glad you're enjoying the build. I'm using just regular bladestorm. None of the other quality options really do anything. Phantasmal in particular is so weird... I wonder if there's any build that makes use of that.

DoTs are a problem since they can't be blocked. You either need to avoid them or have high enough life to survive them. There are several kinds of DoT. If you're having trouble with chaos then get some chaos res. Otherwise (cold, phys etc) there isn't much else to do. Your gear is pretty nice. You have the helmet enchant too. I suppose those got significantly easier to get now. Try getting a watcher's eye with pride and a bottled faith next. Oh and a Saviour. That will help a lot.

yea, this build is good till t14 and up, your dmg is not enough considering the money u put in this build. t15-t16 bosses take 2 min to kill and u can forget doing blight or legion. i still need saviour so maybe he's a game changer?

Any boss in the game is easy to kill. You can see that the videos. T14 bosses are a joke. You can't expect a melee build with limited range to do well in blight (especially blighted maps) and legion. You need AoE/projectiles for those. The Saviour will help with clear speed and bossing as well. You need a good main hand sword to use with it.

" Aias_o_Telamonios wrote: Maybe I'm not understanding your reasoning correctly because it's late but... Why do you say "30% per kill". It's 30% per hit. Riposte always triggers on block with a cooldown of 0,8sec. Vengeance has a 30% chance to trigger on hit with a cooldown of 1,2sec. A block does count as a hit but we block 79% of hits so you don't gain much with "on hit" vs "on block". And that 30% chance and 50% longer cooldown kinda kills your chance of triggering it. So if you also add vengeance you will indeed increase the chance of triggering onslaught but you won't double it. At least not in most situations. If you're in the middle of a very large pack of white mobs then maybe... Also I don't really think the "on kill" aspect of onslaught really works. It's a 1L skill and it does virtually no damage. So practically only if you cull an enemy you can use the "on kill" aspect of onslaught. I use that gem for the "on hit" against uniques. It works well with bosses that hit a lot. Not so well with things like Shaper. Finally to use vengeance you need to remove something. Probably precision. But that's a 2,5% damage loss which you probably won't make up with the questionable increase in onslaught uptime. Or maybe you can remove increased duration. But that's a defensive loss. So... doesn't sound that good to me. But if you think it'll work then try it out and see. Onslaught Support is a 10% chance per hit on Unqiue enemies and 39% on killing blow. Both riposte and vengeance should be able to kill white and blue mobs easily. The question is.. how much is the Onslaught uptime if you ONLY link it to Riposte? Both while clearing and while bossing? If it's not up that much Vengeance might be worth it, depending on the situation it should boost Onslaught uptime by a least 50% compared to Riposte only. Ideally I'd like 90+% uptime but I doubt that's possible without a flask. Onslaught increases mov speed and attack speed, which not only means more damage but also faster Leap Slams and faster running, which makes it easier to dodge stuff, so it's kinda defensive too.
