[3.18] Gryph's Tank Simulator - A Detonate Dead Ignite Elementalist

Cool, thanks. I like to have something to work towards, and as HH isn't great for this, I'll pick uul-netol's amulet I guess. Assuming this makes it through 3.17 nerfs (perhaps the 7 charges to flask mod is at most risk, perhaps ES up to 2% of armour?)

If you're using obliteration wand, do you keep razor as weapon swap for bosses? Mildly awkward with needing a 2nd shield of course.

Can just swap the weapons in inventory if you need to. Hardly matters for mapping to be honest. Aegis is not likely to get nerfed, it's been through that already xD

We'll just have to wait and see. *shrugs*

Hi, Gryphenprey!
I like your build very much, but there are three questions:
1) How does this build feel at the start of the league?
2) How is the leveling for this build?
3) Why are you using Unearth? Spectres with huge life + desecrate not better?

Played this build A LOT this league, got to leave my two cents here:

Amazing, insane, a masterpiece! Probably the strongest shit I've played since Legacy!

It's perfect for nem3 farming: fast, reliable and fun. Farmed all the way to a Headhunter and would totally do it again.

Also did all Atlas endgame with it. Maven's genius minigame was a problem only because I can't remember that shit to save my life, but even then it's so hard to die to her other things and the damage is so absurd I killed her no problem. Simulacrum gets real terrible when it rolls increased fire res, but I got to wave 29 in my only try.

I really hope Boneshatter diverts GGG's attention from Ignite for now and we can enjoy one more patch of this monstrosity. Thanks a lot OP!!!

So tempting, any leveling/league start tips? Maybe pob?

Cool idea man!

Downed Sirus A8 without any issues with ~12 ex investment (lvl5 awk gems were the biggest part of this) with ~5M dps.
-Tanked die beams without any upgrade on the pantheon gods.
-Got some nice drops off of him ~ 6 ex which covered half of my investment already.
-Didn't take more than 4 minutes with RP. You really don't need OPs gear for the build to shine.
-After the fight Sirus whispered me if I was the final boss of the game and asked me to direct him towards a market where he could gear up to beat me next time

I've already invested some good money on the build and I feel pretty good doing all content, but for some reason that I can't figure out why (I'm a bit dumb sometimes), I feel squishy when fighting Elder and Shaper (????). Generally, those are the easiest endgame bosses for me on other builds, but I keep having some problems. Can still do them, but will die a couple of times. I just melt the other endgame bosses though.
If someone can take a look at my PoB and give me some tips, or even tips on the playstyle to fight them, I'd love to!

These fights are very mechanics oriented. Though I'm not sure where the trouble is tbh. If you're doing Uber Elder though, you want to kind of hug Shaper so you can dodge the balls easier. They should all go down pretty quickly. Keep in mind that this is a DOT build so you can hit once and move around freely for a few seconds.

I think the main difficulty you have in these fights is that block isn't overly great and some of the attacks have penetration as well.

I leveled with an Ignite Power Siphon + Spellslinger Flamewall setup. Wake of Destruction and Sacrificial Heart amulet to stack a bunch of base damage for the ignites. Worked pretty well for me.
Can always do Armabrand of course.

I am hoping we get at least another league out of this myself. GGG needs to stop nerfing my builds every league. lol.

Increased Fire Res is problematic if you lack damage. I can do it just fine at my level of investment but at lower damage values it can just hard stop you.

And for the record, I too struggled with the Maven memory game until I did like 20 of them. Finally started getting the hang of it. lol

League start should feel fine. But it really pops off after you have phantasmal Unearth.

The issue with desecrate+Spectres (this is how I started btw) is Corpse Fishing. For most normal content including t16 maps, it's fine. But for bosses like Sirus and Maven it's a pain bc you either spend so much time casting desecrate and trying to fish for the right corpse or you use up a support gem link with Unleash to make it smoother.

basically Unearth is consistent damage that is on par with High life spectres and in some cases is more damage (Simulacrum for example) as it is not based on area level. Having done both, Unearth feels 10x better.

As for league start and leveling it's all fine. You can start with desecrate+spectres and it'll perform nicely for mapping etc...Grab an Obliteration wand and get a medium cluster with fan the flames for some nice explosion prolif clear on a budget. It's very flexible.

What would be good Megalomaniac mod pool to try fish one? Theres so big variety on them thats basically immpossible to get 3 specific mods so I would like to make for myself some Trade Filter with like 1 mod that must be present on the jewel and like 2 (count filter) other mods from some bigger mod pool.

Any advice? I'm quite not sure what mods I should look for. Any order of importance?
