FoxTactic's - [1.2] Pledge Of Arc 26k dps Updated: 2014-09-08

One could adjust the skill tree to 1.3. It was build of the week I think (min 3:14 starts showing the skill tree)

When you put that to 1.3 you should get smth like this

It seems good to me.

When assuming same gear math brings me to the following life:


Level = 80;

Strength = 150; (guessed)

additive modifiers = 63 (chest) + 97 (helm) + 85 (glove) + 150 (boots) + 68 (ring) + 36 (ring) + 77 (amu) + 40 (Oak) + 20 (passive tree) = 636

multiplicative modifiers = 117%

Using:

Maximum Life = (38 + (Level * 12) + (Strength / 2) + additive modifiers) * (100% + multiplicative modifiers)

gives

Maximum Life = (38 + 80*12 + 150/2 + 636)*(2.17) = 3708 life

What do you guys think?

One could also go for 20% more life and chaos resi (and maybe aura effect and mana reserve) instead to the scion dmg part:

Maximum Life = (38 + 80*12 + 150/2 + 636)*(2.37) = 4050 life

Feedback is welcome

Im currently going like this:

Also killed all bandits at cruel

The Celestial Punishment keystone is just too op to ignore.
Preferably with Pcoc, since assasins mark wont help at atziri or other bosses.

I have with a 5-Link Pledge at lvl 80 currently around 18-19k dps, while holding 3,8k life without op gear. with a 6 Link, the atziri belt,voidbringers and higher lvl my dps would go to ~25-30k on paper, plus the pen, shock, +25% damage on shocked enemies.

Something to change? Im up for some critics! :)

Here is my skill tree for 1.3.0 (lvl 94).

34k unbuffed dps. full buffed 49k (with aziri promise 52k) (with vaal haste 62k)

here is my gear (life 4.000 mana 4.9k) . i can play nearly all map mods even reaflected ones. i only got a problem with -max player resistance i just reroll these ones.

dual curse porchers mark and assasins mark. ( can switch porchers mark for warlordsmark depends on map mod)



when mapping.. auras ( haste, hot, clarity (only needed on -50% life mana reg or immune to curses!), purity of lightning)

You have a total of about 120% increased mana regen between gear and tree. How the heck are you having the 300 + mana regen to run a 20 AA?

eldritch battery does the job. body armour and helmet give a nice boost also and off curse left ring and amulet . works great for me

I'm currently using his build in Standard, and I've come up with a slightly cheaper alternative using Doryani's Catalyst. The concept is still the same, but the gem setup would be slightly different. I have since gotten myself a Pledge of Hands and am still enjoying the build immensely. Guys it STILL WORKS :D

5/6L (Chest) Cloak of Defiance
- Arc, Spell Echo, Faster Casting, Lightning Penetration, Life Leech
- This will be your single greatest investment into the build, it took me about 13 exalts of fusings to 6L mine.

Curse Arc (Gloves) Maligaro's Virtuosity/Voidbringer
- Arc, Curse on Hit, Warlord's Mark, Assassin's Mark
- Warlord's Mark at level 20 has a STR requirement of 148 if I remember correctly. Trying to spec into STR was a waste of stat points, and so I needed to find ways to get STR. I ended up with a pair of boots.

Auras (Helm) Alpha's Howl/Geoffri's Crest
- Reduced Mana (with Quality for Arctic Armour), Clarity, Discipline, Arctic Armour
- I am addicted to this helm because of the -8% mana reservation and Freeze immunity. Using Kaom's Roots gives you stun invulnerability, but it doesn't prevent you from being frozen. I am more of a defensive player and so I quite like this helm. The DEX requirement will be a problem, but I rectified it with, you guessed it, a pair of boots.

Defence (Boots) Lioneye's Boots
- CWDT, Enduring Cry, Immortal Call, Increased Duration
- I got myself a pair of Lioneye's Boots to use instead of Kaom's Roots. I found that my improvisation had a little bit of stat problems with not having enough STR and DEX, and these boots give the build exactly that. Lioneye's 20% increased stun recovery on low life, and so makes it somewhat like a cheaper version of Kaom's.

Weapons Doryani's Catalyst
- Lightning Warp, Reduced Duration, Faster Casting
- The second Catalyst can be used for levelling gems or using a Cast when Stunned setup.
- The Elemental Leech is really good coupled with high Elemental Damage.
- An average Doryani's Catalyst was about 3ex, 2 cost me 6 exalts. A Pledge of Hands cost about 10 ex at the time, and not even 6S. Safe to say that 2 Catalysts were definitely cheaper with 2 3S3L as opposed to 1 6S6L. A 5L Pledge works just as well though.

Belt Doryani's Invitation
- This is a staple for any elemental damage dealer in my opinion. Lightning Leech plus resistances for the 2 other elements, and more STR that goes towards Warlord's Mark.

Hey guys, Been thinking of doing something similar to EB/MoM/Acro/Phase Acro/AA with pledge and a legacy cloak of defiance.

Does EB and Acro (reduced 50% ES) have anti-synergy?

Let me know what you think.

Hello,

I was looking for an Arc build. I'd like to use my pledge of hands, so this is what I was looking for.
I like the idea, going for lightining coil as for def, running PoL is nice to deal with reflect anyway and seems funnier than MoM/Cloak.

I like the build Sefrot posted, but I'm not too sure about mana regen for AA.

@ Lapdancecola :
Where do you get the second curse from ? you don't have the key stone nor one of the uniques allowing a second curse and your amu is not corrupted either. Did I miss something ?

Hey! Any updates for 2.0?
