Wreckanoth's DOOMSLAYER Shotgun Blast - Gemling Legionnaire - T15 Maps+ SLAIN

"
I've already committed to Witchhunter. Will not having the Gemling Legionnaire affect my ability to use these gems, or will the build simply be less effective?


I think you could still do it but you would have to roll some big stats and maybe run lower level on heralds /cast on ignite / withering as those are the big INT requirement gems there.
Is there any video of the build in action?

Not yet but im going to film one over the Xmas period Smashing some T15s and bossses! build is really fun and im experimenting with it daily!
Please can you provide an updated link or summary of links/tree? The one on here doesn't seem to work?

Cheers
The build looks fun. I've finished Act 3 on my Gemling, I'm going to try to transition to this build as I go through Cruel. I did notice an error on your mobalytics guide. You say to use Exploit Weakness support for High Velocity Rounds but Exploit Weakness cannot support High Velocity Rounds. High Velocity Rounds consumes broken armour and Exploit Weakness cannot support skills that consume broken armour.

I think the build could be improved more by incorporating a weapon swap. By not using a second weapon, you're losing 24 passive tree points.

To me the best way to do that is focusing on your single target High Velocity Rounds skill and the giant bleed DoT you can cause with it. With the second weapon passives you can grab all or a majority of the passives in the 3 bleed wheels of the merc area. You could get more damage from the armour break square as well.

With the passives of the first weapon, you could put them into the area of affect circle near the bottom to make your explosions bigger. Maybe get more crit. Or use the points on the grenade skills to improve your gas grenades.

I'm looking forward to seeing where you can take this build!

I've done a new version where exploit weakness is actually in the incendiary shot!

And with the new passive switching this is an absolute incredible idea.

I think i might do this and make one thats full ignite and one thats poison/bleed.

Right now the poison is doing more damage than the bleed due to the wither and chaos mods.

Thanks for the idea, definitely going to update that, been working a lot at the moment so i will update over Xmas

Do you want to be the closest thing to the DOOMSLAYER in POE?

Who am I
Spoiler
I am a dude who has been playing and theorycrafting ARPGS way back since diablo 2. I also have the highest rated/most viewed Necromancer build for diablo 3. I like to try and play off meta things that are fun but somehow competitive :


Why This Build?
Spoiler
The moment i saw Incendary Shot and Double shot it reminded me of the super shotgun from DOOM and i absolutely had to make a build around it. Plus i love dot builds so this fits perfectly.

Been Blasting T15 maps with this awesome blend of Chaos Infused Ignite damage


Bear in mind this is early access and i am still theorycrafting, testing and trying multiple interactions with this Ignite based build, There are other great theorycrafters out there and amazing builds and we're all figuring stuff out at the same time, reading the trees and testing.

This guide will be much more intensive and in depth when i've pushed more of its limits and had the time to physically write the guide, mechanics and interactions.




Rotation + How To Play
Spoiler

Rotation =
Gas Grenade to Start Poison Break Armour with Corrosion and apply Bursting Plague.

Permafrost bolts to get a stack of freeze on to allow the Chaotic Freeze gem to work on Contagion.

I would like to thank @itsmelazy for the Contagion idea from her similar Ailment build that uses heavy bleed build ups to go deal massive burst damage.

If you have any thoughts or ideas for the build i would love to hear them in the comments.



Idea seem absolutely awesome i do have only 1 question tho and is that if its possible for you to do a leveling breakdown on where to path from X to X im not the smartest its why i follow guides to begin with so i would love it if u could make a break down on leveling and what u would recommend to use before u can do the full setup thx in advance and i will be trying this out <3

I am gonna try and do this over the holiday season! been working a lot so will try to get a video together too.

Build is going smoothly into 15 and some t16. Still some areas to be improved.
What are the frag rounds for if you’re mainly using gas - permafrost - incen?
