3.14 KING OF ALL SUMMONERS. Zombies & Skeletons & Spectres on STEROIDS! | League-Start to End-Game
" Normal lightning damage has chance to shock as a status ailment, the higher the damage the higher the chance. When using skills like arc and shocknova you have the chance to shock no matter how much damage you deal because of the spell, however you will have minimum effect of shock applied for every cast(0,2% ?). Think of it like bleed. You cause bleeding on enemy but how much they bleed is based on your main damage. Therefore cold spells are better because you chill anyway. They will be slowed down, then if u deal enough damage they get frozen. |

" I am doing the 6-link cyclone same gems as JCOH atm. It is definitely shocking trash mobs and map bosses quite reliably. Duration of shock is quite hard to tell as everything dies so fast. Have not tested with no minions to see. And have only done 1 conqueror since switching to shock nova. Did not look for shock. So even if shock duration is low...I am constantly Cycloning through everything again (if needed) - doesn't shock reapply just as quickly as the first shock debuff? Or are there diminishing returns that kill those chances? Side note, sort of; it adds a ton of fun to have 1 even 2 slots to throw into your cyclone. So maybe my DPS isn't mega like my Victario's aura setup but I'm still destroying shit damn quick. It just feels good. Edit: but yea, wish I still had my skitterbots. Only thing I miss atm.

Good to hear, theres honestly quite a few people in the thread that struggled like I did with being 1 hit from a screen away by random nonsense or over-tuned metamorph bosses.
I get alot of pms in the forums and whispers in game from people wanting to swtitch over to a tankier version and so far I havent had any complaints outside the occasional person not liking the boots but those are typically the meta speed guys who are used to clearing maps in under a minute. Originally I disliked the idea of using 1 of the 6 links for cyclone but now I couldnt imagine not doing it this way. Either way though that 6th socket is optional, whatever the user feels comfortable with, the only must have is the infused channeling b/c that extra mitigation really does make the difference on being 1 hit in A8 maps. |

" To each their own, of course, but I personally think it's a wasted slot. I did 99-100 deathless on a boring 4L Cyclone with only 16k HP and your gear is far better than what mine was, and you Cyclone through things much faster because of those cute ass boots. If you have capped resistances and as much EHP as you have (and Chaos resistance), there's nothing that can kill you unless you're running full sextant, max pack size, corrupted T19/20 maps with 2x extra damage and LMP... in which case you're probably going to die no matter what you do. |

So, I decided to see what happened when I anointed Cleansed Thoughts with just my base chaos resistance from the passive tree
I went from -48 to -96 lmao I feel like I might need to get more base chaos resistance before using that notable XD |

I reworked my CI setup a bit to avoid using "mana reserved" gems to make this version of the build a lot cheaper/accessible.
Now using only 1 "mana reserved" point in the tree + an helmet with some "mana reserved" enchant (Flesh & Stone, Pride, Discipline or whatever aura you're using). This allows me to reach 2700+ strength, 20 zombies, 17k ES with my current gear while running ... Flesh & Stone linked with maim Pride Discipline Dread Banner or War Banner POB link if anyone is interrested (make sure to choose "Without mana reserved" tree at the bottom of the page)... https://pastebin.com/SsCrpqs4 And btw, i'm still selling the same lethal pride used in this build.

" I see you are no longer running Maim, why not just put that in ur cyclone setup? since u cyclone nonstop with those boots u will be maiming and causing vulnerability all the time wich is a nice dps boost. Last edited by Cyrom#2298 on Feb 6, 2020, 12:51:12 PM

Finally I bought an good weapon and Shaper gloves with vulnerability on hit.
What gems I put on chest now (instead vulnerability and blasphemy)? With all buffs on I have 33 mana, so I can't put more auras (maybe clarity low lvl changing my enligteen to level 4). And what is the best upgrade to my build now? I have 10ex atm Thanks :) |

@Cyrom
Ya idk, we get a built in 20% chance to maim on hit with attacks anyways with the Vulnerability, I never really saw a dps loss when I dropped that, or from when I even ran flesh and stone linked with maim support. Im sure it shows in PoB but again, I dont use it, so many people obsess over number crunching in there, I just dont see the need when we already kill everything in 3-5 seconds. Im just trying to be as tanky as possible to get these last 2 levels without losing exp. |
