[3.10] The highest DPS miner - 1.5 shapers per second
So, i changed to this build today, because bossing with my ED Contagion build just felt horrible. I bought some piece and others were from my other build. It would be awesome to get some recommendation on what to do next.
Also what exactly is meant with "If you find that Destructive Apparatus is being affected by the timeless jewel you will have to get another one or divine your current one"? Chaining the mines also seems to be not really working. When i played Pyroclast some leagues ago it was fine, but i can't really make it work with Ball Lightning. Thanks for tips and recommendation in advance.

When playing with Malachis Artifice and armageddon brand
dont you feel that you dont have time to brand lay mines and denotate when in delirium and cuz ee your damage sucks? Like ee+brand works awesome for bosses but i just dont have time for it when in delirium |
|
I have not been using the malachai artifice + armageddon brand setup and my damage feels fine honestly.
Even managed to knock down the simulacrum, although i had to cheese the last wave that had 2 bosses. I am however self cursing tanky mobs and i'm using a couple of cluster jewels as well that give exposure. GEAR : And using these jewels currently |
|
Exposure gems + curse on hit rings really are great quality of life for this build. Freeing up the sockets for exposure could mean using a QoL totem for bossing. With the increase in totem hp, a decoy totem could be really good QOL to pop down before you set down your mines, but other options might be much better.
I wonder how many people are giving up pyromaniac to get explosive expert. I considered it at first, since I could live without the 10% regen, however being immune to two status ailments just seems too good to pass up. |

Hey Guys!!
League started with this build. Initially was using arc for clear and ball-light for bossing. However there is something about ball-lightning that i dont feel like swapping out of it. Thus decided to use ball-light fulltime. I have one quick question please, I was trying to 6L my Tremor however someone recommended me that there is a better set-up than 5 Link tremor. I was recommended to try Tabula + Agnerod WEST Staff. It gives +2 to ball-light gems and it also gives light pen. Thus effectively making it a 7 Link setup. Which is far superior to 5 Link Tremor Rod. This set up is was recommended till I procure a 6-Link staff only. Obviously 6-linked Tremor is OP, no denying to that. Requesting your thoughts/feed-backs/recommendations on Tabula + Agnerod WEST set-up. P.S. Love the build, in all likelihood gonna commit to hit for the entire league. Take Care! |

" Not sure what you guys are on about, I'm using it in the jewel socket next to acrobatics and have phase acrobatics, blast waves and silent steps socketed without the leading points. Its important to get the small ring version of the thread of hope. |
|
Any Update on this build. I been following it this league and so far its great. No much the price of the gear but that will come in time. Im more curious to see what changes you have made if any cluster jewls were implemented. Any potential changes in gear possibly?
I found myself struggling a little with the higher tier maps as im a little squishy in Delerium and higher elite mobs. Maybe its my playstyle I have to get use to play range-like. |

" I'm using it for now to get phase acro and blast waves and in the future, silent steps for 5% reduced damage taken. 7 points for the cost of 3. |
|
" corrosive elements is a huge dps boost from large cluster jewels. thunderstruck is a fairly nice quality of life defensive mechanism. i specced into the staff nodes for some block and that's helped a little. using a thread of hope for phase acro and silent steps is a nice defensive boost for me. i might drop it at some point, but for now it works well. |
