[3.25] Community-crafted Pure Retal Gladiator | Sous-Vide the Atlas
" I have fortify from Crushing Reply node, but UA seems like a good idea! I was actually considering taking Crimson dance and stacking bleeds, but pob showed me a decrease im DPS (but honestly I should have tested it). Are there any Items/nodes that are necessary for this approach? And is it really possibile to reach pernament usable state? Last edited by PPGamerPL on Aug 5, 2024, 8:37:06 AM

" not possible to reach a 100% permanent state, but for that cases i also spam a secondary retal to proc the Prepared response + mastery also, pob is not calculating dots from retal correctly, especially ailment duration mastery and the attack rate seems wrong too |

see what you mean about it being slower with bosses but appreciate the video, playstyle looks pretty fun

Anyone tested Second Wind? I think I have better uptime with it.. I use it in both Crushing Fist and Swordstorm.
CF - Ex.Ret. - Melee Phy - Pulverize - Second Wind - Brutality I may be wrong though.. |

Am very new to the game just started playing this week i did not look up a guide am kinda winging it and i made a retaliation only build am about to start act 4 now i would say i got no issues with damage but i have been squishy so am investing some points into life passives gl on ur build

" indeed for spamming second wind is better but makes the attack costs a lot of mana |

I hadn't seen this thread before, but I made a retaliate build for my leaguestart, and it's been going very well.
It's a HC build that oneshots every boss including the Searing Exarch, seen at the end of this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i7OI63KQWeg (the oneshot portion of searing exarch is bugged, I have an open thread about it, so unfortunately I had to kill him very quickly, but it was more than one damage instance) I also made a guide for anyone interested in more, https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/3545902 Last edited by Mewfour on Aug 5, 2024, 6:57:16 PM

Been reading thru your thread here and its got some interesting take aways.
Making me wonder if i should get away from sword storm. So far i have been running Swordstorm 6L with Crushing fist as a secondary on 4L. I have been able to run t16 just fine. Done feared and few other misc things. But its lackluster when it comes to some bosses. I can do Simus till about wave 12 and the dmg just isnt there to power thru kosis' shield sometimes with mods he gets. I am still trying to figure things out but i am all for debating some ways to do these retaliate skills. Here is my current pob: https://pobb.in/vCoYlJ4BSIMK | |
" amazing job someone poked me saturday about this combo with call of steel, but i decided to not go there because it would defeat this "challenge" that i imposed myself and i would be replicating that ground slam + lord of steel abuse too so get ready for your build to be nerfed next league :D it also, reminds me of that ice crash build that could one shot any boss |
