Acid flask getting 1 shot

Hey LE brain trust,

Playing acid flask rogue (marksman because I don’t have the gear for falconer) around ~300 corruption and I’m getting one shot fairly often in woven echos.

Am I missing some sort of defensive stat?

Here’s the character profile:

Thanks!

I am not too familiar with the build but 2.5k life is a bit Low if you don’t generate ward on top ( I can’t see anyway you would do that but not much of a rogue player).

Also you don’t any endurance. It’s a fairly important defense layer for hp builds

You need more armor. Probably you should add more phys res on items/idols and change heorots blessing from res to % armor.

And avoid pulsing orbs from weavers

Hi bro I loveeee acid flask but always play it with daggers - much the same though, if you want a tankier variation for this:
Volca’s one https://youtu.be/1C430-ezqG4 check his defensive stats/nodes etc.

I personally love living on the edge and die a lot regardless and my acid hero is potato_LE he was first uber kill this season using flasks and his is:

Good luck, flask is fricking cool even with the mana nerf they gave it this season :smiley:

Awesome thanks guys. I’ll start aiming for more endurance and armor and check out those videos.

This is the most LE end game I’ve played and I’m really enjoying it.

I got a mix combo of acid flask/trap throw that I used early in the season and stopped a long time ago. https://www.lastepochtools.com/profile/INCURSIO/character/LadyAstrid

Has high life and very good damage but I stopped a while and didn’t even get the ancestral bow which I was aiming for. It’s fun though and i’m zoom zooming the maps.

Max your fire res to the bageezus level as more fire res is more dmg (kinda the point of you 3/3 node bottom center). as there’s no better def then one shotting mobs mobs.

Out side of that it’s max doge to 80 or 85% I can’t remember cap atm. As your rouge you can double dip Dex stacking for dmg and flat dodge amount. Out side of that it’s the boring (to me) glancing blow chance and dual red rings for less dmg then something like wings armour for less dmg while moving or null pull body. You can u glancing blow quiver. Or you can use decoy or ballista and put in pale ox just to redirect damage to them. As you have explosive trap spec you can use that to drop ballistas and not even put it in your bar or spec into it it’s just there to meat shield it.

Last def is go full low life hp to ward conversion.

This is what @legionone is referring to keep in mind this guys gear is outrageeeeous but still they’ve done a lot of testing with flask builds BD vs Falconer and this is apparently best

I’m just speaking from stuff I’ve picked up in all the builds I’ve played of which have included fire and cold flask. No idea which part of last comment was a ref to me, of which is not a problem I just don’t know what part applies to me. If it was my account it would have no def layer past one shooting mobs, of which I’m saying I’d build different.

Lol you mentioned low life build - lots of ward so I linked a video to a low life build with lots of ward if it wasn’t clear I was agreeing with you by linking that :slight_smile:

Also to be clear low life builds are blade dancer due to the node that takes advantage of the DR and crit multi~ (this is to OP)

I c.

I was just going general def strats opposed to someone specifically, but good on you for taking time to link a vid showing it can be done.

Yeah it’s more to show him the passive points and where they were put to make the most out of defensive nodes which he seemed to have the most issue with :slight_smile:
