[3.13] HC/SC/SSF All Content Miner - Any Mine Skill - LL/CI - 12k ES w/ Videos!
|
Hello Beer, and all. Dohnn here again with a quick update.
Running with this build as a very new player has given me some great opportunities to learn a lot about the passive tree and do a little bit of testing on my own. I put in some time to level up to 98 for as many reasonably earned passive points as I could, and as such was able to make some miniscule changes to Beer's setup to pick up a second cluster jewel / Energy from Naught. I am sharing it here for reference. Just to clarify, 99% of this is based on Beer's guide here, I would call this just a tiny tweak of my own to try out a second cluster. The POB is showing me something like 10.7k ES, in game I am actually 11,088 while buffed so I'm not sure what I am missing. My initial goal was 10k ES buffed and ramping up to 11k has been quite a surprise! I hope to push it even further while maintaining solid DPS to do all content (granted, I need tons of practice to kill end game bosses myself, but I think the build is very well capable of it and proven via Beer's videos). My current passive tree picking up a second cluster with 2 passive points // ES focused: https://pastebin.com/uShMxaZU I am by no means an expert of POB, so I simply copied Beer's settings/configurations. Am I missing anything there? I continue to be curious about the ES calculation being lower in POB than in game, as well as the DPS calculations. I assume the listed amount to be "good", suggesting that this DPS is based on every little BL shock/arc, of which there are many. Thanks! I am looking forward to 3.11 and am thinking I want to do a very similar build but run a different main skill, maybe GC, icicle, or something else a little more unique/less played. I guess mines are already not heavily played. |

Also while I am here, figured I would post up my current gear and thoughts for remaining upgrades before league end:
Current upgrades I am in search of (thanks to Beer's latest recs): - Boots with enchant, likely "x to y lightning damage if you haven't killed recently" with minimum 200 ES (preferably more) and 30-35% move speed. - Ring upgrades - to fix up my Dex a bit so it is loaded on one ring, maintain resistances, and hopefully build in some %spell damage modifiers on both so I can run double ES implicit moonstone rings. - Other than this, I've hunted a bit for +1 all/+1 lightning wands but they seem insanely priced (for me) and I've only ever seen about two available at most, assume due to late league timing - I thought about a Chayula's with a good corruption, but can't find any and my current setup needs the +16 all attributes for str/dex. - Maybe a machina with +crit corrupt, but also seems to be non existent or insane price. My most recent upgrades are the helm - higher overall ES and maintain BL added proj enchant, and Bottled Faith. What I've also begun to love is the low life setup, I feel like it would be tough for me to ever go back to a life based or MoM build after running a setup like this! Thanks again! |

" On the pob thing, I dont think it calculates the discipline aura effect correctly from the jewels. Also, the medium aura effect jewel should be better for both DPS and eHP than the second cluster with energy from naught, it will most likely push you over 12k ES, or very close to it. As far as upgrades go, I would check out a new Watcher's eye - one with PEN would be a nice upgrade. |

Have had quite a few requests to stream league start and gearing up. Going to do my best to stream as much of it as I can on https://www.twitch.tv/beerleague
Made a new account for it - haven't streamed in quite a while so you all will have to bear with me |

Hey Beer - thanks for all the input, it's been a big help. I took a bit of a leap (I know it isn't much but it's improvement for me) and went fairly blind into some shaper/elder guardian maps and was able to knock them all out no issue. Next are some actual bosses.
At league end I'm considering diving into crafts and I'm sure it is likely buried somewhere in these many pages. Do you have any good input or somewhat of a guide on attempting to craft a +1 all/+1 lightning wand or what kind of base to look for? I've researched with fossil crafting but I'm a complete noob on that front. I guess that is open to all others as well, I'm sure we have some crafting kings around here, lol. PS - would love to see a bit of a league start on stream. I'll be taking it pretty slow myself but wouldn't mind catching some input on how you get started to try and follow. I assume you are running this or a very similar build. I am doing the same but switching up the main skill to cold or something else for fun. Thanks! **Edit - damn I just checked out watcher's eyes with light pen and light dmg during Wrath .. all going for 1 mirror plus LOL. I am going to check on Pen/Wrath without other mods for pricing. My current is a 55% light dmg under Wrath. Last edited by tnich55#3354 on Jun 3, 2020, 1:43:50 PM

" No great way to craft them unfortunately, just need to buy the base. On the eye, you can always try the zealotry version, its usually much cheaper. I'll probably be starting BL again unless there are major changes |
|

So whats everyone thinking of this build for next leagues mechanic? Seems really good due to the fact we can setup mines and then pop the encounter right?
|

" Yeah it will have good synergy. Once they release the patch notes I'll do an update video. |

Hey man, just got done with the BL version and HOLY SHIT do I love it!!! I’m getting ready to transition to icicle (to see what I’d rather play next league) and was wondering if you could go a bit more in depth of what to change/prioritize. I’ve already bought lvl21/23 gems for icicle and the throw speed enchant helm but I’m having difficulties in t12 maps. I was running 20 wave simulacrums with BL easily (with some deaths). Thanks for the reply in advance!!!

I just commented and forgot to add some things. I noticed were using cont. destruction (no more crit) do I need to respec my tree into different? I’m not seeing a difference in pob, maybe I missed it somehow? I’m new to mines, BL was my first mine build but I really want o make icicle work because I love chill/freeze mechanic
