(3.16) NERFED DO NOT PLAY THIS Raider Archmage BF/BB [CHEAP, Tanky, HCSSF viable, (100m+ dps)
" There's an item configuration for different shields at certain points, at the minimum you would want a life/mana roll with ideally spellblockk. |
|
" Especially early big physical hits can be a problem, having it on left click can make it so that it's not immediately available during burst windows (sigil of power) or not ready in case you're going to get hit by a mechanic you can't get away from (think delirium slow + boss spawn). At a certain point using it actively becomes less important due to all the layers of defense. |
|
" 1. Arcane cloak should be actively available for full stage sigil for optimal DPS, it's a very important defensive layer that can save you from big slams/shotguns so I like to have it on spacebar to use it reactively and every time I run into a big pack. 2. 8 seconds, it's not clunky you can also run vigilant strike + Faster Attacks and ancestral call. We have a lot of attack speed from onslaught. 3. Intensify stacks can mess with sigil 4. I go into detail about other options in the 3L in the guide, this build's origins are in HCSSF smooth play is not a priority, optimization is 5. I don't play trade, I couldn't imagine more than 30c. A decent yellow shield will more than suffice early on, you can also just run another mana scepter without too much harm to your defenses Last edited by ChemistHCSSF#2067 on Apr 15, 2021, 7:00:47 PM

" I don't personally see the point in not self casting conductivity until on hit ring, I don't find need to run urgent orders on Enduring Cry, I like second wind better or just Enduring Cry by itself with vaal Grace/Righteous Fire or Tempest Shield. |

I'll be trying this build as a starter on SC, looks really solid. Just a question, I'm assuming you're not considering Omeyocan since you're on SSF, but would you say it's worth pursuing? I really liked it on my ice nova mana raider last league.

" I would avoid unless you're willing to get a lot mana regen to compensate |

It appears you are missing your gear section!
It is in the pob but nothing here in the guide. Also, can't seem to get the filter to work. Thanks Chip E |

" Filter works fine. He put all the items in the PoB, the guide is only 2 days old. |

Great build! I'm thinking of running a BF/BB build for the start. I am still confused on how this is tankier overall than the Chieftan version of the build. Am I missing something?
I'll also be running in HCSSF, and I am not sure I'll realistically be able to get gear to make the raider version as safe while having better damage/speed. |

Ok, wasn't sure if it was a mistake, copy & paste error or something..
With the filter, when I go to the link, I get the message: Your filter style 'velvet' is no longer supported and was changed to the 'normal' style. Due to conflicts between the changes in this save state and changes coming from a filter update, 4 changes could not be loaded. The invalidated sections are: -Act 1 rings ilvl 8 normal (4 changes) Re-do those changes and you will be back up-to-date again! ..... When I load the filter in and sync, I get an in game message that a filter sound is invalid, I don't have different colored highlights on my items. Not sure what I'm doing wrong, my other filters seem to be working |
