Fuzzy's Lightning Strike Raider
Pros
+ FUN!!!!!
+ Great clear speed
+ Amazing burst damage



Haha, it's true, it's a very fun build. When I respec to lightning strike, bought claws, rebuilt tree, etc, I went to the first map and literally laughed on the first rar mob - its not damage at all.
It felt like trying to stab an elephant in the heel with a toothpick. On some maps I spent 3-5 minutes on a regular boss, just because the damage is very slow. Very funny.


p.s. was planning on playing the league on lightning strike since the last league, but in this one I suddenly discovered that Omniscience turned out to be a million times more expensive than the last one. Without the amulet, LS looks a bit too "fun" so far for me. Yellow map have nothing valuable, red maps impossible to farm.



I mean, you're level 86 with level 17 gems, no Vaal LS, your claw is mediocre, your auras are not leveled, you waste a lot of points on your tree to get stats (strength, intelligence), also your tree is not so good. Your shield doesn't give you ailment immunity, you haven't done uber lab... Should I go on?

Of course your build is gonna be bad at the start. Try to work on some upgrades and then you'll see that the build is actually very fun and good ;)

Of course, I know that my build is not finished and invested not much, but I honestly do not remember a case where an uncompleted build in about this state has so weak damage on the bosses :)))
Of course I'm not demanding that the unleveled version skipped phases on sirus, we are talking about t10-t12 maps, and there are some rare mobs invulnerable - they probably heal faster than I hit, and on some mobs/bosses take minutes of real time to kill because the damage is so weak. Probably situation is exacerbated by the new nemessis mods, but I really laughed some time :).

No offence pls, dont want to be toxic. Its just really funny about how unlucky im do this respec in LS, mostly im dont expect 50ex for omniscence when it was 20c previous league :))).

So far I'm level gems and saving up for a bliz crown, hope it helps pretty much.
Also can not fit all the auras, something from Grace, Deter or Anger does not fit, so i also miss something reservation.

Replace the claws is not an option yet, my current 550edps, and something better starts to cost exponentially, but I bought a couple of 86il bases and spend all founded essence on it.

Ok so for those who care I figured it out.
Defiance banner linked to lifetap causes a mana increase and I completely missed it. Thanks to whoever suggested that, I had to do a bunch of testing and comparing when I got home from work to figure it out.

Have you taken into account the new archnemesis mods? They make the game a lot harder. And honestly, for t10-12 your build looks really weak to me.

For the mana thing : you don't run determination. You run Precision, Grace, Anger and Defiance Banner. You only run determination if you have an aul's uprising amulet ;)

Another update on my SSF adventures and boy is it an insane one.

Did all bosses I had left today, including the Feared, deathless which was super nice. And The Feared was kind enough to give me a new armour:


Continued to Uber Elder, also very smooth and after that did some Gwennen gambling and... I got a Mageblood...


I've played since beta and never been even remotely this lucky.

But even without the Mageblood, the build has been performing superbly. It's fast, it's fun, it's surprisingly tanky. There's a lot of minor improvements you can do almost all the time, the gear is fairly straightforward to craft yourself and needless to say it's still some of the most fun I've had to date. Next up is Simulacrum 30 and then I will give the uber-uber bosses a go I think. Still got a lot of gear that can be swapped out, would also like some awakened gems but in SSF you sadly can't be very choosy.
What is the point of Lethal Pride in this build?
In his video it looks like he's just using it for 2 5% double damage nodes...is that alone worth it? (Plus all the strength)
If somone could take a look at my build and give me some tips on what to improve on i feel like im lacking abit of dmg for bigger bosses not sure if my dps is "medioker" but something feels kinda off

pretty much that is the point of lethal pride.


you can get intimidate on hit, %life, double damage, +20 str, 20% fire res, crit multi and some other pretty good stuff with lethal pride

just the strength on the small nodes alone could be worth it, so you can get more offensive stats on your other gear.
Level up my build, most mandatory - i miss "Force of Nature" (10% elem penetration) passive in my first setup and its help much. Most of maps ok now.
"Early endgame" looks big problem with very same reason - too low dps. Guaridans take forever with a 50% chance of not killing at all, because the portals run out sooner.
My build seems to suffer greatly from lack of elemental penetration.

you are running a simple corrupted lightning strike in your six link.

get yourself "vaal lightning strike" and bosses melt
