Hi.
What base do I need to gamble for that axe , pls ?
Welryn axe, lvl 64 & above.
New to both this game and this build - I picked up Liath’s Signet while getting my first build to endgame. Is it worth using at all for warpath? I’m not sure how consistently we would be channeling, but also could free up some affixes for elemental res.
As you play more you’ll realise that getting resists is pretty easy for a Pally, especially elemental resists. And the implicit on a Gold ring is a good place to get some.
Makes sense, thanks for the info.
Also, Welcome to the community!
How do you get that Chalice? I’ve been gambling forever. Got the Undisputed axe from gambling and didn’t take all that long. RNG?
Either gambling or having it drop in the world.
Thanks, thought so. Also, what would be the new Idol setup given the new Idol arrangement?
Nice was just thinking how nice it would be to have a loot filter for the build.
Any thoughts on this since we can’t use 4 Huge idols anymore?
Thanks you so much for all the GREAT work!
I saw you recommend this build in your top build video. Is it still good with the news Idols settings, as we cannot stack the 1x4 Idol? What do you suggest to look for on the idols?
Well, I don’t think it is as good as it was. I am running it now. I am at level 92 and doing Empowered. The build works great up until Empowered where it struggles, at least for me. I am not uber-geared but do have both the Undisputed axe and the Chalice and a few nice other pieces. Only using one of the 1x4 idols with other idols mainly having bleed, bleed duration, phys damage, phys damage overtime. Didn’t have any real trouble with bosses through the three 90’s echos, other than learning the fights. But it is not the tankiest build and with the loss of the damage from the three 1x4 idols makes it more vulnerable, at least for me.
Any updates for this build ?
Seems that after 0.8.2 I keep running out of mana quite fast.
Farm until you get the Wings of Argentus, that should help a ton.
thanks for the guide , will try this build out for my first last epoch playtrough ^^
Is there a leveling guide or something like that?
Just hit L93 with this build, definitely my favourite so far, and im going to push on and see how far I can take it… here are my findings/notes for any new players:
-
The 3 Uniques are very important to the Build, its really not an ideal choice for a 1st character, but I actually had none of the uniques when I started and still had a lot of fun levelling, much more so than my L90 mage (which was a glass cannon).
-
I used a big Physical Damage 2H Weapon for most of the time, I had some purples in my stash, but even if you dont… you can craft big damage weapons as you go (dont forget blunt weapons dont bleed)… just stacking physical damage and leech… if anything it was stronger than a poorly itemised bleed build… early on anyway.
-
While levelling, I recommend stacking your Health high… like 1800-2000HP, enough so that you can take a boss mechanic to the face, as your damage is still low and without the 40% less damage chestplate, its a delicate balance to leeching damage back & not running out of potions… and you need tonnes of leech to try and replenish such a big Health pool…
-
I highly highly recommend getting the final sentinel skill to 5/5 ‘Blademaster’ it was a big damage increase, and once you have the axe and/or relic, put ‘Increased Bleed Effect’ on your chest & helm… this was another big jump in damage. but its a rare affix shard.
-
There was good power progression, as I got 1/3 then 2/3 then 3/3 uniques, the build got better and better… I had to run empowered God Hunter 9 times to get the chest to drop (it actually dropped with the 1h sword, not instead of), it can be a little scary without the chest piece, but honestly its such a strong character, much stronger than my mage, as you can spin out of mechanics, and leave a bleed dot on a scary mob, and it all works well. The 40% damage reduction chest obviously is an incredible change, I think Ill drop HP back down now that I FINALLY have it…
-
Skill Note: To avoid needing numlock and since im relatively lazy, and… had 0/3 uniques… I went with some extra sigils to give me some sort of cheat death buffer… I mean its not amazing, but it made me feel a little better… I just periodically hit ‘SigilsOfHope>VolatileReversal’ for a mana free sigil, and even though I normally hate these sort of mechanics, it turned out to be a life saver… as a 2nd targetless teleport/lunge to get out of a bad spot, even if you don’t end up where you planned! I also recommend 2 charges on Lunge for extra movement. Great build thx Boardman!
Hi,
Kinda new (returning after a hiatus) here. Just started the Fates - wow, that’s changed.
- What blessings would you recommend.
- I have a couple of “Eye of Reen” in my old stash - would this work … respec into Fire/Buring damage, rather than Bleed … and what skills/passives changes would you suggest ?
Thanks … very helpful build and post. First deathless run (so far).
Thank again - very helpful videos / guides Boardman. Keep up the good work.
PS. Still don’t have any of the uniques.
I’m looking to play this build as my first endgame character. Would you recommend following the " 1 to 75 Sentinel to Paladin Shield Throw 0.8.1i guide you made then switching to this build? Or should I just level up using the skills you have listed and figure it out as I play?
Thanks!
