[3.20] 💥 Velyna's Explosive Concoction 💥 Leaguestart | Smooth Clear and Bossing | Deathless Feared

I really like the fact that this is a scion based build, and it would be the first scion build i've played (I think).

Hate ask this, but i just can't make up my mind.

I'm running with concoction this league but the question, of course, go poison or explosive ?

I'm not concerned with which is "better", i'm more interested in any differences in playstyle or fun factor. They look very similar for obvious reasons, so i'm thinking there's probably little difference and it's just personal preference.

My inclination is to go with poison, just because I like DoTs and using this as an ignite-based build doesn't seem realistic.

The other reason i might go poison is that alchemists mark doesn't look as strong for explosive as it does for poison. I'm under that impression because, as per my previous comment, this build probably doesn't seem like it would work that well as an ignite-based build. Happy to be proven wrong of course :-)

or I might go explosive, because i like the idea of using the different flasks as a damage source. see ? I can't make up my mind. lol.

thanks very much for creating the build guide.

Going to be trying this for league start as my first scion build, thanks for posting the build. Looking forward to seeing how it goes.

From the gif it seems like you have to stand still every 0.25 second
does not that feel bad and open you up to being slaughtered? (I have ptsd from playing builds that stand still from the past)

Overleech helps a lot with that, if you don't get absolutely oneshot it works out fine!

Final PoBs are up.

GL in 3.19!

Are there any Uniques to keep an eye out for while levelling?

Just hit Act 4 and using a 3L Explosive Conc, having fun though I need to find some new flasks now I'm not using Poison.

"The Delinquent's and Sinner's modifiers can no longer be rolled on Flasks. The Transgressor's, Masochist's and Flagellant's modifiers now provide 1, 2 and 3 charges when hit by an enemy respectively (previously 4, 6 and 7 charges)"

How much does this affect the build?

Might go back to using % increased recovery, should be totally fine though.

Waiting to test it in deeper maps.

Definitely gonna need some tips for Flasks for mapping. Just started on whites today, and definitely need to have some stuff on my flasks but I'm not sure what the best options are, or if I should grab high ilvl bases first etc.

Roll for either "% increased charge recovery" or "gain charges when hit by an enemy"

Make sure you aren't pressing the sapphire/topaz just let them sit full of charges.

The suffixes can be used for freeze/ignite removal if required.
