Level 85 atm. Following Boardman’s gear, & affixes except I use a winged helm for the crit avoidance and I do not have the unqiue chalice yet and I have only made it to wave 75 in arena sooo I have some work yet to do, but…
I’m not using Reckless Spin or ANY of the skills to the right of Unchained. ATM.
So no forged weapons being summoned and none of that armor shred business. I am not 100% on this but as I understand it…
Armor Shred is only good for the melee hits and does nothing for the bleed effect which this build is focused on.
So using those points elsewhere (as in putting 5/5 into Unchained) is possible. And the increased movement speed is VERY nice.
Soooo somebody PLEASE correct me if I am the dumb kid in the classroom asap.
Up next is thoughts on not summoning the forged weapons via the Warpath skill nodes.
How much does this affect the damage/build.
Or are we just speccing into it just cause we can?
Certainly they do some DPS and I assume they can apply bleeds. But is it significant?
I can’t really tell a difference and maybe that’s all that matters but I’m also not running lvl 100 stuff yet.
So the reign of dragons boss…*note I do not have the unique chalice yet & lvl 87…tried 6 times to kill him, switched back to the Warpath/forge weapon spec - killed him without issue.
Soooo…staying with Boardman’s Warpath skill spec atm.
Those forged weapons do add noticeable DPS imo.
Not a huge data pool of 7 fights with that dragon but enough to keep as is for now.
How do you have your Warpath set up if you don’t mind my asking. Because, I want to get way from Reckless Spin, tried a few different ways but I still manage to mana starve myself.
I specced out of the entire chain to Moving Forge.
That gives you 7 points (8 with unspeccing Reckless Spin too) to max out Unchained and fill in the other nodes to the left as you see fit.
It was really nice I liked it. More mana (3/5 Dark Nexus) and movement speed is the bomb.
But for now I went back to B’man’s Warpath spec as noted.
Since this has been a topic I’ll share my deep, deep, little girl, emotional feelings completely unsubstantiated by any facts, figures, or data.
I flip-flop a bit on the Warpath skills. Nothing new to see here.
**Lvl 91, still no unique chalice.
I’ve specced/respecced half a dozen times taking note of whether or not the forge weapons and -30% resists are worth it. I think in a boss fight or two the forge weapons are nice, a bit of extra DPS/bleed/aggro, but the overall extra movement speed & AoE is even nicer.
You get an extra point in Forge Guard tree by removing Folded Steel too.
And you don’t have to worry about that dang -30 resists.
@Firos, unique chalice dropped for me. Got to empowered timelines, fired up The Last Ruin mono (which gives increased chance of unique relic drops) and it dropped in first quest echo.
Yay for me but more importantly, yay for 11th hour and LE for having a way to semi-target random drops. Very nice.
Been playin your warpath spec and I think I like it alot more. I have died way less frequently. However, I do noticed bosses/elites take more time to kill. But I am okay with that, since I’m not dying as much.
I don’t have a link to my build.
Same build as posted but I don’t spec to Shield Crafter in Forge Guard and see above for my warpath spec.
I have briefly looked at lunge. Not enough incentive to switch out RoS for me.
can u please tell me how u have specced RoS?
cant seem to find the best way.
now all into healing, armour on heal, increased healing and healing on death, only top left hand corner.
cheers!
