Not supported anymore

Going to be trying this build as my 3.1 starter.

Did zerker in 3.0 got tired of mashing buttons all the time :D

Hope this can farm uberlab effectively.

It can indeed. In fact, she was the best uber lab farmer I'v ever had, basically she is built for it. Not as fast as say a Queen of the Forest/Phasing build, but still very efficient/safe nonetheless.

Thoughts on the RotP nerf for this build in 3.1?

RIP Build, RIP RotP

Sad day in POE land.

Damn, was hoping this was 3.1 viable. Guess I got to the party too late.

It will still be viable in standard at least... RIP me ever playing a league.

[DELID THIS]

RIP in peace in peace.

Good part:I will have best RF character ingame forever and you are jealous mad hater.
Bad part:I will never play RF again

This build was not too friendly as league starter but now It is just dead.
Even if you get kaoms +1resist and amulet +1 resist you will not reach enought fire resistance with scion to keep decent regen.

And shield nerf is not all,witchbrew is dead huge chunk of our dps

I would be surprised if you can kill harbinger without scorching ray after patch goes live under few hours of running around him.

In hardcore I would not even try.

So this patch so far
-Nerf to RF DPS
-Nerf to RF surviability
-Nerf to RF utility
-Need 100% more exp to reach level 100

It was nowhere near strongest build ingame,it was arguably the most fun and smooth one.
Now It is really something we will play only in standard along with our facebreaker builds

I really hope patch notes tomorrow will prove me wrong with something like "rf now deals 500% more dps"

I'm confident this build will still be playable in 3.1
In PoB with mediocre gear, I get from +252.0 net regen to +0.3 so still a positive value, we will not deplete before taking damage

I also have an idea to make Witchfire Brew still viable for this build (with some odd modifications) and probably will add some different flavour to it, will test out and let you know if it works :D

PoB so far is telling me "way to go" at least on the not-red mods ;)

Is the build really dead with -3% Fire Resist from the RotP shield?
As an example, I checked with Path of Building with my current build (lvl 88) and I go down from +165 hp/s to -27 net life regen, without Vitality. A bit more life regen should fix this, and the new RotP version adds this!
With Vitality, it's +277 to +86. It's still positive!

Witchfire Brew now applies Despair.

Despair is a new Intelligence gem that will replace existing copies of Vulnerability. It reduces Chaos Resistance, increases Damage over Time taken, and grants added Chaos Damage to hits against cursed enemies.

I don't think Witchfire Brew will be useless, it's just a name change.
