[3.11] Cold BV PF Indigon ft. RF | All content done in HC! | Fast mapper, safe boss-killer

Ok, I respecced and am enjoying the character SO MUCH now. Huge appreciation to the OP for going into such detail about things like the flask mechanics, which affixes are the most valuable, and so forth. I'm currently using Hrimsorrows until conversion Eyes get a bit cheaper, but even with my pretty scuffed setup I'm kinda immortal and just run through the map exploding everything.



For those wondering, most of these items are cheap except the helm (which will get cheaper in a week or two) and the body (which will get cheaper as people start to harvest craft more). These scepters cost me probably single digits chaos each (still need to get my trigger craft on one!), and my boots/ring/belt are all single-digits chaos items too. Amulet was an exa or so, and will become an ingredient in my +2 amulet soon. Next upgrade after getting some better clusters is definitely going to be the watcher's eye though.

Alright, this build is probably the best thing I have ever played. The interactions it utilises are just so powerful and synergistic. Even after just 1 day of playing it I'm pretty sure I'm just going to take this character to 100 and not play any alts this league.

Honestly I can't imagine playing anything that doesn't abuse conversion and phys-as-ele for scaling explody ever again. You just walk through a map and everything instantly explodes. This is with the starter level gear from my last post in corrupted t16 maps!

Now I need to actually make a list of all the things I need to do in Harvest so I can keep my eyes peeled in groves...

well. I am flat broke. But at least I have something to show for it. Not mad at this chest AT ALL. Going to remove that armor and craft chaos res and physical taken as XX on it. I dont have the heart to reroll life a thousand times so ill likely go with the 8% life and mana craft and call it a day.

I swear, hatred scaling phys spell is perfectly balanced and shouldn't be nerfed. Just killed sirus with this trash gear set...

If anyone leaguestarting directly with BV is wondering, starting as cold straight aways is better than trying to make poison work. My BV poison started in heist was very mediocre till I respecced, this cold setup is respectable. Pathfinder poison prolif isn't worth the trouble, and scaling hatred effect is just ridiculous, even without indigon. DO take agnostic tho.

Any thoughts on adding Agnostic keystone and swtiching quartz flask for hybrid like this one?

Agnostic is addressed in the OP already. Long story short is that sustaining your life total isn't really a problem but sustaining your mana (while maintaining indigon effect) is. So another mechanic that replenishes life at the cost of mana is not really solving any problems. I am inclined to agree with this assessment.

I'm off work again today so I think I'm going to buy some jewels and blast maps.

Things are going smoothly now. going to get the watchers eye and then work on getting some better gear. Blasting maps now. Build is starting to feel super nice.

Got my boots with a lucky speed craft reroll in harvest. Love to see it.

Clear is ok but my single target needs some juice. Does anyone see anything I'm missing to make this good? Or what should my next upgrades be?

Build feels really good clearing t16s, what upgrades should I look towards if I want to gear up to be able to do wave 20 simu's and 100% deli?

Would also like to be able to face tank aw8 die beams if possible, considering maybe pick up a second very large thread of hope to grab arcane will and heart&soul

Also would it be a good idea to aug light to get the 15% phys taken as lightening?

Really happy with the build. Weapons were easy to make, I got lucky with Awakener Orbs. Looking forward to fixing stuff with Harvest.
