GhazzyTV - Essence Drain & Contagion (or Bane/Soulrend) Trickster [SC/HC/Uber Elder/Shaper]

so it seems the consensus is to go with a bow? I have around 340k ED dps on my current dual wield wand setup..can anyone using a bow share their numbers? Tried to plug in a bow on pob but it kept giving me lower dps than my current set up.

My 60% iiq exalt minting version of the build. My gear are fine tuned to farm T10 burials as fast as possible. Gotta get that headhunter asap. Currently a headhunter cost a mirror already, god forbid the price doubled in a week or 2.
" Sell your perfect form for 8-10ex and get a 5 linked one(1ex). Then buy the bow for 7ex or craft it yourself. " Just alch and go white maps and run it as fast as possible. If a single cast of contagion -> essence drain doesn't wipe out 95% of the legion mobs after the timer ends, move down 1 tier. Legion mobs spawn in a circle around the monolith, so to maximize the number of legion spawn, only run maps with open space. My list of maps that synergize well with legion mechanics.

T1 Sulphur Vents
T2 Alleyways, Glacier T3 Ashen Wood, Fields T4 Beach, City Square, Strand T5 Burial Chambers, Peninsula, Tropical Island T6 Mud Geyser, Primordial pool T7 Graveyard, Racecourse T8 Dunes, Estuary, Iceberg T9 All crap / or run Shaped T4 maps listed above. T10 All crap / or run Shaped T5 maps listed above. " Your first 6 link should be your bow, period. Make sure the skill is socketed in correct slot in your pob if you want accurate number of your essence drain dps in your pob. |

Playing this build, still at the begging of the game (just finished act 5), but so far a feel the build so clunky. It's just me? Or it takes time to the build to shine? Not that the DPS is bad, but the gameplay doesn't feels fluid.
Already thinking about changing the build to something else, or creating another char. So, you that have played it till the late game, does it get better? Or still the same? Thanks. |

Never mind I didn't pay close enough attention and got scammed

" Because of the high dex on this bow, you are going to have a really hard time getting the right colors. That's why people are buying show bows, the dex requirement is very low and easier to off color. 3 blue, 2 green and 1 red. |

Pretty fun build, but the damage is really poor compared to many other builds. Not enough to kill rares in one cast of ED with a 6L, even in a T12. I even added a second wand for more damage, and same deal. With higher tier maps, it rarely takes half of their health. Even with Contagion spreading everywhere, it doesn't really matter if you can't break out the good (rare) targets. Having to stop and use Blight for single target isn't an option for this league. If you can't keep moving, it's lost time and currency.

" Sell your 6-link queen, buy a bow (see posts above) and your problems are solved. I can easily break all mobs out of stasis on T16 maps. |

" what results do you archieve on Domain ? You allready mastered a 4/5 faction battle with satisfiying results? and may i ask about your hideout tooltip dps ? |
|
" I want my gear fully optimized before I start doing 4/5 way battles - they just require so much investment that I want to get the best possible results. I can not report on this, yet. My tooltip ED DPS in hideout with no flasks is 46.626 (this is the number given in the "offence" tab). The dps given by mousovering over the skill on the skillbar is 438.387. Not sure why they are different by almost an order of magnitude. |

" I thought about it, and is something I am considering. Honestly though, it makes me hesitant. Most builds shouldn't need an 8 ex 6L bow, with a 5.5 ex gem to be able to do average damage in high tier content. I feel I might be better off investing in another build than trying to prop this one up. The only thing keeping me going at this point is just the satisfying explosions as Contagion spreads through the initial Legion packs. At this point this is just deviating from the guide entirely going that route. I honestly should have known better, when someone claims Uber Elder/Shaper in a build guide, but has not posted any video of them doing that content. That's on me though.
