[Outdated] Ultimate EDTrickster [2M dps - UNKILLABLE]
" That's awesome. I'm following your mini-leveling guide for Spellslinger and having a blast. Dying a bit to a few bosses, but the move and clear makes up for it by a huge margin. Currently doing VI at level 47. What do you mean by GG wands? What other cheap gear should I look for to take me through white maps before I switch? |
|
" a good wand would have +1 to lvl of all chaos spell gems / 20+ chaos dmg over time multi / open prefix to craft spell dmg (ofc if u have all that and on top dmg over time multi as a suffix, this would be even better but such a wand is everything but budget) u can try to snipe a +1 / chaos dot multi / open prefix for relativly cheap (payed 3c for my one and it carries me)... but since this build is super popular atm there are alot of snipers and the prices go up. everything else is pretty meh... just use what u can get to be res-caped + life.. thats it |

How far would a 5 link Cane of Unraveling carry me?
|
|
" depends on the rest of ur equip, but the cane alone probably red maps.. pretty good item :) but dont quote me, i bet there is someone who killed UE on a 5link cane lol |
|
" Sounds good, don't feel like farming a tabby so knowing I can do reds on a 5link makes me happy. |
|
" I agree a lot with this. This is my second league, I played Brand Archmage and Necro last league. Going from Act 1 to maps was a breeze. Now, I followed this Leveling guide for this build as starter. This leveling guide is fucked up. In acts 8-10 you get one shooted by any boss. I died like a shitload of times. And I'm not a clueless guy, I know how to play. I repeat, the leveling guide is completely trash for those acts. |
|
" Is that item better then a six link ED thought? I also don't really know at what point to switch from spellslinger to the normal build. Wondering when it will fall off. |
|
" ofc its not better... there is a reason why u switch to selfcast ED/C around red maps... sure u can force the spellslinger playstyle out of lazyness but normal ED/C is way stronger in the end. this is a 5c craft (4c for the essence and 1c for the base) and for that its more then fine... edit: and to clarify the justification, this "fith-link" reserves no additional mana with spellslinger (every real 5 or 6link would do so and would make the spellslinger combo of soulrend/ED/contagion with one button click impossible or realy hard to pull off -> reduced mana reservation everywhere) Editado por útlima vez por sasori1337#6305 en 21 jun. 2020 5:42:29

" This is not a “facetank trololol” build during leveling. If you stand in front of a boss’s telegraphed slam, yes you will die. Many builds brute force their way through bosses by bursting them down instantly with single target dps. This build can’t do that (especially not in the midgame) so you will have to dodge the boss attacks while you wait for them to die to your DOTs. Snipe them with Blight when you get an opening but *dont* just stand there channeling while the boss changes up a huge slam. Editado por útlima vez por evouga#1253 en 21 jun. 2020 5:45:54

For bosses, unless you make a point of maxing resists and having life on every piece of gear, you should just dodge. I leveled with a chaos spellslinger variant but the playing style is the same. You tag them with your chaos skill, prioritize not getting hit and damage further when it is safe - IN THIS ORDER.
I died once during leveling and once in 50 maps, both times due to extreme overconfidence (which made me play in the heavily lagging instances instead of creating new ones). I'd say you should switch out from spellslinger after you've done some white maps, around level 72-75. It is a very pleasant style but the damage is lacking once you move past tier 2-3 maps. You could extend that with good crafts a bit but not by much and I'd say it's not worth investing in it. |
