[3.23] Lk's Cold DoT Ele [League-start to over 40m DoT] (Wildwood Primalist Update)
Hey @LkGGz could you look over my build and suggest upgrades/improvements that are the next step for my build that will help improve DPS and survivability? Thank you! https://pobb.in/r-s8DQz0Qyr8

Hello guys, hello @LkGGz,
Can I get any recommendations on what should I focus next? Here's my PoB: https://pobb.in/AWo2itx4K_LY My plan was to get the onslaught tattoo, few more chaos res tattoos, getting better legacy of fury with corrupted implicit (probably max life). What next? Thank you for your reply. Also, i'm struggling with choosing my endgame atlas farm strategy. I tried doing harvest, but i just don't like getting necessary compassess one by one and going into 'different' zone in maps. I don't think Cold Dot is good at legion, I don't like running Abyss because of abyssess moving so unpredictably. What else is there to consider? I thought about Ritual + Delirium, what do you think about it? Последняя редакция: Kickowsky#0284. Время: 13 сент. 2023 г., 8:29:30

" Upgrade suggestions: 1. Get lvl 21 Vortex, Creeping Frost and Vaal Cold Snap => instant 14% overall dps boost (quality not impt) 2. Gloves - Inflict cold exposure on hit Eldritch influence is compulsory. Otherwise you have no source of cold exposure. 3. Flasks - there are two utility flasks with evasion suffixes, they don't stack. Switch one to armour effect. Get semi/full instant recovery effect on your life flask 4. Weapons and shield - use POB Trade to purchase an upgrade within your budget* 5. Jewels - Vivid Splinter should be replaced 6. Awakened Gems - for a start, purchase awakened ele focus and controlled destruction for your chest 7. For more defense, switch culling strike/faster attacks for defiance banner. You will need 2% increased mana reservation efficiency from tattoos or jewels. Eventually you will need to upgrade your amulet, rings and gloves to higher life and resistance rolls so that you can equip more uniques. *Using POB Trade Function: https://youtu.be/U_ugXJ5VGAA Cheers~ YouTube Channel: www.youtube.com/@LkGG-Gaming

" Upgrade suggestions: 1. Get lvl 21 Vortex and Vaal Cold Snap 2. Get lvl 21 Frostbite, quality is not impt 3. Should be quite easy to find an upgrade for your rare cobalt jewel. In this league you can get the 2% reservation efficiency from tattoos. 4. 5 ways for levels 5. 20% quality on flame dash and divine blessing 6. I believe you can upgrade your molten shell to base lvl 10, despite your +1 all skill gems it should still work with CWDT (let me know how it goes) 7. Quart Flask phasing > capping chaos resistances. I suggest you switch your Amethyst flask for Quartz 8. Drop one life passive on the Purity of Flesh cluster and allocate 15% life mastery >> more life 9. Saw that you converted many passives into resistances. You can use Prismatic Catalyst on your ring for more resistances and drop some resistances tattoos This was my league-start atlas strategy: https://youtu.be/SMRxcOK9xh4 About delirium + ritual, I don't find ritual good income to time ratio. Just go delirium without ritual. For harvest, you can make a few divines per hour on just chisel + alch and go with the correct atlas set-up. Compasses are not necessary. Abyss itself isn't good income/time at this stage of the league, unless you are using it to generate more monsters for 60-80% deli farming.

Hi!
So far I really enjoy the build, I know that I have to replace my skin for something with another keystone, and to upgrade the rest of my games, but then, what else can I upgrade here? Pobb: https://pobb.in/jL-J1iosNwK0 Cheers :) edit: also, how do we sustain all of the auras? i can run only three at the moment. Последняя редакция: Ravesence#1015. Время: 13 сент. 2023 г., 10:26:24

" You need to add the sovereignty wheel to sustain the auras. I think you should follow the passive skill tree in the guide. It will allocate all of the important nodes first, then add less important ones last. Take note that you should be running Vaal Cold Snap instead of normal Cold Snap, and you should run lvl 1 CWDT so that it procs with a lower threshold. Gloves - roll cold dot multi for exarch implicit Flasks - replace Silver with Quartz. You have double armour and evasion suffix rolls and they don't stack. Change two of them into movement speed and reduced curse effect. Mark of the Shaper - purchase higher rolls and use catalyst on it Amulet - you need increased effect of non-damaging ailments craft Jewels - you need invul to determination Watcher's eye Boots - get 6% life corrupted implicit Cheers :) YouTube Channel: www.youtube.com/@LkGG-Gaming

what maps do people run for this build now? I only have two voidstones so I'm doing crimson + city square with deli, red altars, and niko (I'm hiero but still doing cdot).
Just found your content Lk, great stuff 👍 |

Wanted to thank author for the build. This is definitely one of the smoothest and most fun mapping builds that I've played. I rarely play the same build two leagues in a row, but I might play this one next league too, if it's not nerfed.
Acts: extremely smooth, everything just melts, and phases are the only thing that protects act bosses from dying in 5 seconds (this was without any leveling gear). ~100 c budget: basic rare gear with life + resistances. Was able to do unrolled/transmuted red tier maps with rituals in them without problems. Also highest level heists and grand heists. Would quite often die to map bosses when doing Maven + 1-3 extra bosses strategy, and Maven invitations would often eat up 5 of my portals. ~5 div budget: bought Diadem, Cowards Legacy, Fury, cheap Vulnerability immunity Watcher's eye. Was easily able to do alch & go red tier maps with the Maven strategy. Started dying a bit from the Eater's altar packs when started doing those. ~another 25 div: Skin of the Lords, Empower 4, most main setup gems 21/20, amulet + 1 and non-damaging ailments, gloves with exposure, replaced rings to fix resistances. Even though there's still plenty of upgrades like awakened gems, better Skin of the Lords, expensive Watcher's Eye, Frigid Wake jewels and of course rares with min-maxed rolls, everything already melting like crazy. I managed to easily hit 95 level myself because I die only every 15-20 maps and mostly due to my own mistakes - for example, stopping to move. |

CDOT is fun, been playing it for 4 years now, since synthesis (after it was reworked in betrayal). Последняя редакция: SonsOfKorhal#5375. Время: 14 сент. 2023 г., 1:29:35
