[Outdated] Ultimate EDTrickster [2M dps - UNKILLABLE]

FYI to people who are up to the 5ex bow, you are better off buying one that crafting one yourself atm. They can be picked up for 3ex as people sell off their old bows where there is little demand.

" Funny when a bow that has literally 4ex of multimodding on it costs 3ex... :p Indeed. |

Been playing the build for a weeknonstop now, really loving the playstyle as I played ED/Contagion other leagues aswell but this one with the tankiness it offers having no problem on red maps with the trash gear I have. I currently have around 3 ex to my budget, could you check my character (DrCyde in MSC) and tell me in what order I should proceed? I know this is alot of work but I currently feel bit overwhelmed on how to get started. I was thinking
-Get better rings/amulet. Mainly wearing them because balancing resists are kind of difficult for me atm. Im checking the gears people link on thread and honestly don't know how you guys are balancing resists :( Also don't want to lose % life on the ring/amulet as I currently have 4.6k HP to ~2k shield and feel like I'd have very little health if I swapped those out, and when I look for rings with better resists/life/%health they come out as very expensive. -I'm not fully running optimal links right now, mainly the Wither totems set up because I spent most of jeweller/chromes on 5 linking the chest and couldn't really get 3B 2G to run Blight :/ Apologies for the long wall of text, just kinda overwhelmed and can't decide which direction to start upgrading from. Would really appreciate if you could point me to a direction. Thanks alot for the buld again! |

I'd be looking at picking up a bow.
Here is a search link for what you want, the cheapest at time of posting is 4.2ex but there were a few hovering at 3ex a couple of days ago. Just need to find someone keen to sell who is upgrading. https://poeapp.com/search/Metamorph/9Ppsga |

" About the contagion: I've read a bunch of builds that totally hates the 4L Contagion, and they think that a 2L with inc aoe is enough and does the same job. I've tried both and can't really tell a big difference.. It's like 50/50 in the different build-guides, some smash the 4L, some love it. Also, don't know where I would fit a 4L contagion atm, if I go for a mix in the chest I guess I could...but other than that feeling kinda starwed for gem-slots atm. About the auras: When I were using the Vertex (and could get away with enlighten level 3) I used Malevolence+Discipline+Flesh and Stone, that's probably my goal again when I can reach the enlighten level 4 gem, if I don't find a good Spider to implement somewhere without changing my entire gear to be able to cap res again :D About the amulet: Just bought a new one, with both +1 chaos gems and T1 chaos dot. It had "Allocating Tranquility" on it aswell, dunno if I want to swap or keep...It's alot of damage, and were "free"... Thanks again for your time and effort! Последняя редакция: westyPOW#4150.

" For contagion: the builds hating on 4 link contagion are most likely outdated. If they recommend a 2 link, there's basically no reason to not use intensify, it's more area. My guess is that they are hating damage oriented contagion setups (they're right, it's shit. only use utility supports in there.). A standalone contagion is imo an heresy, it should at least be 3 linked. Bane does the work, but you really should try at least 3 link contagion (not for damage, just aoe and speed). It really is faster once you get good gear. I mean at least in 2.0, chaos dots will be broken :p Edit: tranqility being allocated is a sunken cost. If you think it is better than 5% dodge, keep it. But imo 5% dodge and 10% MS is better. But FoM is basically free too, so considering the sunken cost of the annoint you already have is a fallacy. Also, please use a quartz flask >< 10% dodge is invaluable. Gl hf! Последняя редакция: Darkxellmc#0807. Время: 20 янв. 2020 г., 10:10:37

hi. do you recommend cwdt setup? if yes what would you recommend.
i was previously using cwdt but i swapped to blight totem for more dmg but i realised cwdt was the key to stop myself from getting multiple hits till death. or should i cut blight to 4l cos im using 6l now |
|
" I really wouldn't use blight totems if I were you, not gonna lie ^^' Blight self cast is very good tho. Do what you feel like you will enjoy the most. It was Cwdt in legion, now I prefer the damage against the new buffed bosses. _____________________________________________________________________ Btw I crafted some insane stuff tonight. Luck turns I guess! Got this amulet on my 2nd try. That'll be very difficult to beat, honnestly! Finished this ring, really nice. Even got some ES on there, but itemlevel wasn't high enough to get a better tier sadly. And finally, this beauty. 150 life with 12% increased, counting the socket (once divined). More than the average dude's armor! |

Been trying a similar defensive setup on a burning arrow with Xoph's Nurture. I'm thinking about swapping over to a cold dot version. Would I be able to use similar gear just swapping chaos dot for cold? I assume it wouldn't be too much different.

" Kinda, and not really. This setup relies on ED to get life back, it'll feel super clunky to only have a flask to sustain life. If you want to go tanky, there's plenty of other ways, I wouldn't play a cold dot this way. Imo the best way to achieve insane tankyness and great deeps right now is indigon+agnostic, it would probably work very well with cold dots. But it pretty much has nothing to do with this guide anymore then ^^ Especially if you play on Xbox. From the feedback I had, this thread is really focused on the PC market. There's a few really difficult pieces to aquire on console, and while they are not mandatory they are the reason people follow a guide anyways: knowing what to upgrade/aim for. I can't see your profile so Can't say for sure tho, maybe you somehow have the gar and tweaks to make this work... In any ways, good luck! :p |
