[3.24] 🗡The Nightblade🗡Nightshade Tincture | Incorporeal | New demo video up

Hi,

Considering the amount of times\efforts and devoution you've put into it I made my decision to try this out this league. To hell these meta archers\necros\miners. The melee is where the real fun and action you kind find. For a casual player with work\family the details provided in your guide are super important as they save me time for researching. Thank you very much man ^__^

Liked your videos as well. I believe you will bring this build even to the higher level. Hope you don't mind when I write you in game seeking advices on the build xD

Yes, triple yes ! Melee is where the juice is at :D

So, thx for your words : I have included them at the end of the first post, along with other reviews I've received ;)

Do not hesitate to contact me ingame, or in private messages. Always my pleasure to answer fellow players.

Here is my Hunting Board so far :



Hall of Grandmasters coming in a next video.

Here is an updated Uber-PoB, including a level 95 setup with Loreweave : https://pastebin.com/edkasVhG

For 3.9, I'm working on a new version of the build. Our DPS is very good and clearspeed is ok. But we still lack tankiness, so that's what I'm trying to improve.
December 23rd will mark the first anniversary of this build, I'll get smth ready for this day.

Before we get to fight Metamorphs and Conquerors within a few hours, here is my last video for 3.8 : my fastest Uber Elder kill so far, clocking at 2mn15sec.

And for the third time, my very good friend the Taunting Squid is here at the end of the fight* ! But this time, I've come up with something special for him...

Hope you enjoy :
#30 : A Farewell to Uber Elder

* The Taunting Squid was previously featured in my first UElder deathless fight and in this Elder fight in league.

Hey i tried to use the pastebin link on PoB but pop-up and error, i think maybe isn't updated or just an gem/skill who was deleted in this last update, hope you can fix it soon, i appreciate your work and i want to use this for my first try/run of Shadow.

You may try this one from 4 days ago : https://pastebin.com/EgsJkCUa

Or here a simpler version I've remade quickly, with level 95 only : https://pastebin.com/8nTTYrt4

Make sure your PoB is updated. Let me know if it works.

Hi, I'm starting the new league with this build. I noticed toxic delivery no longer gives health regen. Have you thought about going unstable infusion/deadly infusion over the poison nodes in assassin?

The health regen is now on Noxious Strike. Their mods have been switched in 3.8.
Last time I made a simulation in PoB, taking the power charge road or the poison one gave the same DPS roughly. So I kept the poison nodes for the life regen.

I have received a lot of positive comments over the last months and promised a better version of this build for 3.9, so I thought : damn, I'd better live up to these expectations !

As several people have told me they want to try this build as league starter, I'll show it to you now.
So here is the reworked build for 3.9.

*

We already have the DPS, we have the dodge, we have ok clearspeed, but we are still fairly glass-cannon. I think it has deterred several players from trying this build. Evasion and Dodge are still random, and pure luck cannot save you all the time.

In this game, you often have to choose between DPS, speed and tankiness. Pick two, give up one.
My goal with this new version is to get all three.
Yes, after all this time, I have managed to make this build tanky.

Without paying for mirror-tier gear and without changing everything compared to the previous version.
I don't want to advertise some unrealistic 100+ ex setup ("get yourself Shroud of Eternity + 5 Awakened support gems or GTFO") and I want to stay true to the spirit of our Nightblade Flurry Assassin.

* Stuff is unchanged. Starkonja's Helmet, Shaper's gloves, Ryslatha's belt, Loreweave are all here with us. They are IMO the best items, but are in no way mandatory.

* Gems are (mostly) unchanged. No change to the BF setup, same for Whirling Blades, the Totem setup and secondary skills like Withering Steps, Phase Run, Abyssal Cry etc.

Now, here is the skill tree at level 95



We take Mind over Matter to help us tank huge hits. And I do mean huge hits.
But since mana = life now, we cannot reserve a lot of it.
So, we use :
- Precision level 1 : 22 flat mana
- Blood & Sand and/or War Banner : 10% each.
We need some phys dmg leeched as mana on a ring or amulet.

We can then anoint the Battle Rouse notable on the amulet : "8% of dmg taken from hits gained as Mana over 4 sec"
Oils are quite cheap : Sepia - Verdant - Azure.

We can add Clarity level 1 (34 flat mana) and get a Watcher's Eye for it.
"20-30% inc mana recovery rate" mod is nice.
Or better yet :
"15-20% of dmg taken gained as mana over 4sec". A better Battle Rouse, which you don't need to anoint then.
Those mods cost 1ex or less in Std.



As for the DPS, we don't lose much, and may cut even : on the way to MoM, we allocate Nightstalker and Lucidity.

PoB level 95 : https://pastebin.com/47xD3sFh
Poe planner : www.poeurl.com/cEWj

I think this is a powerful setup to kill the Metamorphs and the Conquerors.
More infos and some demo videos coming soon.

Good luck and have fun, Exiles :)

where is the final build? on your charachter dont have the same, what you put to post 3.9, so what is the good build? anyone know?

What about reserve all mana and going for evasive and es stuff + EB?

I have just changed the first msg. You can now find both versions of the build, and I have added a warning :

"* For 3.9, I am devising a tankier version of this build. I hope you'll enjoy playing it as much as I do.

We now use Mind Over Matter. The skill tree has undergone much change.
/!\ This version is still experimental. It will surely be improved in the incoming weeks.
All infos in this msg"

I have already tested EB and it seems fine.
I've tried it with the Devouring Diadem helmet. Less DPS than the Starkonja, but better clear.
Not sure to keep it, but this v3.9 is still in the testing. We could also take it directly on the tree.

I didn't want to go full ES stuff, because that would change the build too much. But yes, that's a good idea ofc.
