[Archived] Moosseolini's Holy Relics Guardian
" That is a good consideration that completely flew over my head. I think that beats the extra range you get from ancestral call without a doubt. I will go update the gem section. Edit: Okay, now the build has 10% more damage just from that change. Thanks a lot. Last edited by Moosseolini#7370 on Jun 18, 2020, 11:00:15 AM

Hey man!
havent played this build since metamorph league, and it was great! countless deathless sirus A8 fights, made metamorph a piece of cake. I tried the build after the cooldown nerf and wondering how do the changes to static strike make this feel good again? I thought it was the holy relic internal cooldown itself that made the nerf, had nothing to do with static strike, or am i wrong? Im thinking of starting harvest with this again if the cooldown problem is fixed with static strike, i dont like the feeling of the build with cyclone, it just wasnt for me, static strike feels so much better. Also do you have a leveling guide for this build? is it in the pob? do we just level with holy relic and smite? I hope this build is back because out of all the OP builds i played in the past 5 - 7 leagues or so, this one is my favorite by far, with winter orb being a close second. |

" The Delirium changes meant that static strike was hitting too fast to proc the now slower relic nova. With the Harvest changes, the hit rate of static strike is dependent on its level, rather than the stacks on the buff. What this means is that we can now carefully control how fast static strike attacks, making it very easy to trigger the nova efficiently. I could get around to making a more detailed levelling guide for this build if that would help. The gems section mentions when and where you can grab the necessary gems for this build. |

Hello Mosseolini thanks for the great guide, any update on the level we should be keeping Static Strike post 3.11? Just want to be sure I am getting the most out of the holy relics at league start tomorrow. Also do you have any recommended war cry gems to support?
Thanks! |

" Do not worry about the level of static strike until you have acquired Geofri's Legacy. I will update the guide once I know what the best level for static strike is. |

OK sounds good, i dont think the leveling guide is necessary then, i see in the gem section now, i was just wondering if we used a different skill until we get geoffris, but it looks like you level with smite and holy relic so thats what ill do. I will try to match static strike proc with the cooldown of holy relic, looking forward to what gem level you think we should keep the SS at for the optimized proc time.

" That will be awesome, I'm 3 IQ when it comes to calculating and such, so thanks :) Never been so hyped for a starter, just hope I get the essential items for a reasonable price. Think I will go hard the first couple days, got weekend off work so :) Last edited by Ziakah#2221 on Jun 18, 2020, 3:17:44 PM

Thinking about thins build and was wondering whats better cyclone or static strike? What is the difference between the two?

" At level 20 it hits every .32 seconds holy relic triggers every .37 so we shouldnt have to worry to much about the gem level for tigger rate. Last edited by ZidaneOrtef#4034 on Jun 18, 2020, 3:46:13 PM

" The difference is very minor and the decision is up to preference. In general: Cyclone doesn't have an attack animation and will just keep hitting enemies as we channel. If we let go of the Cyclone button, we stop dealing damage. Static strike continues to deal damage after we've struck an enemy. We need to stop and hit an enemy to gain the buff, however. |
