[3.10] Durimon's Kinetic Bolts Ice Spear COC Assassin, 100% Del., 14 ex, FAST MAPPING

I used to be a big fan of wanders back in the days, but after a big nerf, I somehow waited for a moment GGG gives a buff to it. Even I am not fully satisfied with buff on wander skills this league, I found kinetic bolts, a new skill, lovable in that it is really easy to scale dps and be used for COC.

Any COC wanders have a big problem, attack speed. It's almost impossible to make it 6.06 aps while you keep it low budget. One solution is to get an advantage of 'hitting multiple times.' like kinetic blast explosion gives or kinetic bolts' forking with pierce.

This league's all about 'mapping,' not fighting single boss. So, when there are plenty of monsters for kinetic bolts to hit, your ice spear gets triggered as many time as one with 6.06 aps.

Also, Ice spear is one skill that can shot-gun a single enemy. Having as many projectile no. as you can, you get huge dps boosting.

About the defense, it's 'durimon defense setting' again. One thing different from previous cyclone based ice nova coc build is that you have a projectile skill now, which means you can dodge, hit enemies from long distance and make a full benefit from projectile skill characteristics. On the other hand, this also means you cannot always stand in the same position not moving at all and hitting the enemies. You have to take an advantage of projectile skill.

Playing Tip

1. Do not be afraid of using all flasks at once. Drink all at once when u are to hit bunch of monsters. (get a short stick and place it on 12345. Then one push will make 12345 pushed at once, if you are lazy)

2. For boss fighting and dangerous moment, don't forget you have vaal molten shell + vaal discipline. Use it when you are in danger

3. When killing bosses, use all buff to enjoy '1~2 sec elimination'

4. for 100% delirium and simulacrum bosses, make the fight one-on-one first killing monster around them, then you are good to go and piece of cake.

Hi, you can count me among the people that are teased by this build ;-)
I'm currently trying to do a Kinetic Bolt / Power Siphon Wander, and I was also thinking about a CoC or Spellslinger Ice Spear setup.

Also, I like your "new way of ES and DPS" concept, and I'll try to use it, even if it's on a different build than your Coc Ice Nova.

Finally, one of your former build, the Valar Morghulis, inspired me for my own Nightblade Assassin build. I managed to use two cluster jewels and that allowed me to finally beat a very hard 100% Aoe Aul at depth 560.

Thx, will be following your ideas :)

More than happy to hear that mine helps!

Build Guide is up!

All right, very interesting.
Got a dual-wander, but my clearing is so-so. I'm gonna imitate your idea and try a simple 4L KB+CoC+Spear+Multiple Proj.

Looks nice to me, going to give it a try, just one question, why not using mistwalker ascendancy?

Because you don't really need it. For defensive puporse, it's good to have it but it's when base defense mechanics of the build rely on evasion. Also, dmg is high enough to eliminate monsters with one-click. So, you don't really need elusive-phasing.

You will see no benefit from elusive if you try it since it won't make you evade strong bosses attacks (delirium bosses) which is the only thing this build has to be careful with. Other monsters and bosses are no worries. They are too weak to be survived from your one-click or 1~3 sec elimination with full buff.

This is why I see taking mistwalker a waste of ascendancy point. Rather, it's good to have more dps and culling strike.

One thing I couldn't get is '50% chance to avoid stun' enchant on boots. You need it for better survivablity. (It doesn't mean that you are weak without it. All video shown above is without the enchant. It's just 'better')

Thanks.

4L is not enough for high dps I guess. If you can afford 6L, try kb + coc + spear + multiple proj. + lesser project. + added cold dmg

Increasing number of projectile on ice spear brings you the most dps boost. But the problem is there's some monsters and mods with high cold resist. that make dmg reduced. (This is why I chose cold penetration even though lesser proj. gives me more dps.)

Thanks.

Your POB link is not working. But from what you said, I can guess you lack of crit chance.

Ice Spear gets triggered on Crit strike. So, like the guide says, crit chance must be 100% with full power charge and without any flask. Then you will see ice spear triggered every time kinetic bolts hit enemies.

Accuracy is important as well. Hit chance must be 100% in order for kb to hit enemies without a miss.

Best way to get crit chance is to have wanders with 25% crit chance (not for spell, just crit chance). When weapon base crit chance gets higher, increased crit chance from other sources get applied with higher number. (just a simple math).

Also, passive tree is very important in my build (all my build I uploaded in 3.10). Check if you have all the passive nodes including cluster jewel ones.
