@@ruffwm not much of a difference. I’m still gaining a lot of focus back to a point I don’t need to use potions at all. But I am seeing a slight difference in the focus gain… like for example before I was gaining almost double the amount of the rune cost from one attack and now getting slightly the same cost.
Use a great hammer. U can stun the boss in 2 throws. I used a grey weapon to have the throw and blink on it, and if you put an elemental anchantment rune on a secondary weapon, you can swap and still have the the effect.
@@OFAMOSO-PeDPano I found another ring that gives 27% damage to rune attacks. I took out one of the ring of calmness. And now since my damage is way higher I’m one hit killing everything, the last boss it takes 3 hits to kill a stage, I don’t even need to stun him, he dies to fast now.
Could you make a new video of this build after the patch 1.0? I'm still trying to make this build work but is very hard (i have 650 focus points and 123% focus gain, but it's not enought yet to regain the cost of a fire throw). The amount of focus that i gain when i make a basic attack is huge, but the problem is on the thow skill that costs 75 focus now.
I am trying to make this build but with the ice throw. The problem is I am farming for a similar weapon for the last few days and I can’t find one, it’s not just finding the weapon it’s also enchanting it to get similar stats. I am still working on an improved version of this build and I will posted it as soon as I make it, so keep an eye out for when I do.
@@LarryPuss yesterday night i swapped the fire throw with the ice throw and it was mindblowing. So maybe i found a little "hack" for the infinite focus build. Is basically the same loadout of this video but i use the Shattered Sun greatsword (26 STR 26 INT) with ice throw. You just need to throw your weapon till the boss is frozen, than use the basic runic skill of Shattered Sun. That skill has a lot of attacks and a very long animation (but u can hit with every attack while the boss is frozen). In this way you can refill your focus bar using "only" 100 focus points ;) I hope it's everything understandable, my english is not very fluid. Feel free to write me in pvt if it's not clear so we can talk abaout this build.
Its possible after patch 1.0, focus gain enchant almost max on all armor (25-30%), topaz gem on helmet (20%) (, high focus gain on weapon (8+), 300+ focus on stats, focus gain on damage enchant on weapon(4-5%), . Very efficient still but not quite as easy to pull of. Combinable with with health gain enchants to get efficient life steal, but not as op as before with greatswords. 1h + torch is kind of the meta, but jeez this build is fun and effective.
Since you're stamina dumping anyways and probably have enough of a focus pool from the two rings, you can likely funnel all of those stat points into STR as well to scale the rune damage even higher. Fun build!
I’m working now trying to level up another character and this time I’m properly saving points. This is my first character and only mid game I’ve decided to go full strength, that is why you will see a few points in dex and other areas…
Pretty solid build man. Buying and rolling better pants is about all I can see you doing to improve this without totally min maxing it. Need to find that sword and try this build
I actually made it even more powerful last night. I found another ring that gives 27% bonus damage from rune attacks. I just replaced one of the ring of Calmness and now I’m literally one hit killing everything in the game. The focus is still regenerating. I can now kill the last boss in 3 shoots. I’m thinking that if I didn’t added the points into the equip load or other stats and put them all into strength I might have do even more damage, but unfortunately I can’t respec.

i was getting rekt by the boss i found this video when looking for tips and it inspired me to make a tank build. sure it doesnt speed run in under 9 minutes( though i didnt time it tbh) but it is a damage sponge.
The focus gain and throw cost has been nerfed. I used this build pre nerf and only needed one focus ring to spam my fire throw. after the first EA patch I have 7% focus on Dmg dealt, two rings, and 135 focus gain. I now have to use some basic attacks in between. It is still a very broken build.
It’s still working really good. What has been nerf is the pants, they used to give x% on focus used, now it give 5 max focus on focus used. So for example if you use blink the focus will still be consumed but if you use the weapon attack that gives focus % on damage dealt you will see your focus going up with each hit, especially the throw rune.
@@LarryPuss I just ran a crucible and added another ring, I was able to spam throw 80% of the time. I only lost focus a few times, but I killed the crucible knight with the spam np.
The focus gain is not doing to good now. They nerf it a lot. The build still works therms of damage but you have to use a lot of focus potions. When you do get to the last boss, because it has a large hit box the weapon gains focus like before as in you don’t have to use a lot of potions, you will gain quite a lot of focus from damage dealt but in the rest of the enemies you will lose focus way to fast and will need to either attack with basic hits to get focus back or use potions.

@@ClarenceDass I'd like to know that as well. Spent some time farming the first boss for climbing picks but every one i've found is Fire Throw. What weapon is Ice Throw on? edit: Just found out it's on the Risen Blade (tier 2 weapon)
I’ve only found 4 topaz’s in my whole 30 hours and two of them have rolled 1% on my weapons so far 🙄 desperately waiting for an update for those shenanigans
@@LarryPuss Sure, but the luck should be from the weapon dropping and the enchantment rolls, not a a lot machine game I play 4 times for each gem in socket for taking the custom route. Very anti fun. Especially when I upgraded that weapon all the way from I-III BEFORE socketing the gem, so now it’s a terrible weapon that I’ve dumped tons of resources into.
X_x how did you actually roll this item? i experiment alot with crafting, the chance seems to be arround 1/350 for getting both gains. But then there is still your high weapon roll. Did you use an item editor by any chance?
Lucky I guess… I don’t even know what an item editor is?? and if that’s a hack or cheat I don’t see the fun in that, I’m playing for the fun not for the win. The important stat is the focus gain on damage dealt and I got this stat on a lot of my rolls.
% focus on damage dealt is so hard to find... I've played for almost 60 hours and I think I've found it on 2 weapons, 1% and 2% focus gained... I really want to try a build similar to this but I just can't get these drops.
it's random drop but I did had a lot of them. I have around 150 of Crucible runs at the moment and this weapon has dropped a lot but this one, that you see in this video has the highest damage so far.
I’ve had it as drop many times, but a way to farm rings and crafting materials is to go to the merchant Greinnich and he will sell rings and materials. If he doesn’t have any rings or the ring you need you can create diferent realms and keep going to him in every one of them until you find the ring you want, if you upgrade his shop to level 3 you have more chances to find rings. You can also exit the game change the date to a day forward and his shop will be refresh, keep doing that until you find the desired ring.
It works on the damage part… in the focus gain it’s bad now, you need to use a lot of potions and the potions themselves also have been nerf from 300 focus to 150 per potion.
It’s random drop, you can get them from chests, from enemy drop and even daily challenges. But, most high chance is you can get them at the end of the boss in crucible, in the last chest most of the time you will find rings and a rune.
In terms of base damage, it should be the same. Now I’m not completely sure but from what I’ve experience the plague and fire act similar as they do a bit more damage over time after used, the electric one has better damage when you hit multiple enemies and in my opinion the ice is the most overpowered one as it freezes enemies in place… I mean I throw the skill at an enemy that was jumping to kill me and I froze him mid air in the most awkward stance possible 😂.
@@LarryPuss Haha, does sound OP. Just found an ice throw rune myself. Hard to find festering earths though, and even harder to get good enchant :D GLHF
It’s from the weapon “Climbers pick”, it’s random drop either from chests, enemy drop or even daily challenges but I’ve found it multiple times from the start of the game. Just keep an eye out for it and extract the rune. The rune skill can be added to any weapon after.
As a start yes. If you just started the game it’s safer to go common quality with gems. Later game when you have more money it’s better to try to buy armour from the vendors and keep enchanting until you get the desired stats. For example enchanted armour can give you besides the basic armour and poise, percentage stats of armour and poise, you can get this stats together with percentage health increase or stamina increase, and then you can also add one more gem to make this even higher. So in conclusion enchanting can give you better results but it’s a gamble as it can also give you horrible results, so common with gems is safer at the start.
Thrown weapon will get nerfed... for sure. If you think Fire Throw was strong wait till you get Lightning and Ice Throw. You literally rotate between staggering and freezing the Echo Knight. Throw does too much poise damage for a range attack. Get the highest damage weapon and just throw away.
I actually got both ice and lightning runes but I’m now looking for a good weapon to add them to. Still farming to get a good weapon drop… thanks for the suggestion, I never considered using both at the same time though.
@@ВикторК-у9э Ice throw and Lightning throw are 22 stat items. So you can start a new realm and rush into Nameless Pass to have a better change to get the weapons that has them. Lightning throw is from Curved Sword and Ice Throw is from a Rapier not sure about their name anymore. Or you can open the chest after Echo Knight which will award one rune and it can roll it.
You need “get focus % on damage dealt”, if you only have focus gain it’s not going to do anything. The focus gain will increase the “focus % from damage” but on its own it will not do much of anything.
It depends on the str build, in the one I’m showing here let’s say around 150 focus should do it but If I’m being honest I would have not invested any points in focus if I knew I would find rings that give me 100 focus. Just having one of those rings should be enough.
I just ''completed'' the build, i have the same 2 rings (26% and 27% focus gain), all my armor pieces gives me focus on hit (full plate armor sitting on 800 armour) and the weapon is not the best one, but does the job done, considering im still lvl 27. And i dont know if its for the latest patch or something but, when i do normal hits the focus regen works fine but, considering i should have +100% focus regen on hit, when i use Fire Throw, it doesnt regen ANY focus... U guys are having the same issue? is just patched?
I literally just logged into the gate to test it and it still works for me. The “focus gain” stat is good and is increasing your focus gain overall but the most important one if you really want to look out for is the “ gain focus % on damage dealt” found on the weapon. So it should still work just as you see in my video… for now. I was working today on another build with focus regeneration and that one does not work at all, you are looking for focus regeneration then it’s not going to work, you need focus on damage dealt on the weapon and focus gain on the rest of your equipment.
@@LarryPuss all my armor pieces, the weapon, and the 2 rings, all gives me focus gain on hit. In fact, as i said, when i use normal attacks or backstab i gain focus like crazy. Is just then i use the Rune attack ''Fire Throw'' when i dont have any focus gain on hit,,,
The armour for example I got it from a large chest in the Nameless Pass. One ring from daily bounty. The pants are actually bought from the blacksmith and I keep rolling enchanted until I got an acceptable one… and the rest yes from the crucible, but mostly as drops from normal enemies not the boss.
You are badly mistaken. The funny thing is I actually found another ring that gives damage to rune 27%. I replaced one of the rings of calmness with it and now I’m literally one hit killing everything. In this video you see it sometimes takes me 2 hits to kill an enemy and with 2 of those rings I now can kill them in one shot. The last boss in the run I can now kill in 3 hits, soo broken!! They will definitely balance this at one point but I can say with certainty that the first ring works.
the funny thing about this game is most builds are broken you can literally go full hp build and go with reflect setup and heal when hit and things die without you needing to do anything and the more hp you have the more dmg you can take and dish out while healing for more the higher ur hp so literally an afk build lol. this game wasnt made with balance at all in mind currently so they will either nerf everything or make things ridiculously harder that broken builds are mandatory.
@@LarryPuss well just did the test as soon as I had time --> my chain lightning is doing 156 dmg without such ring --> i have equipped 2 rings increasing the rune damage with 31% which made the chain lightning do 167 dmg in which universe is this working? :)
There are 2 types of focus gain. One is focus gain in general that from all sources and the other is focus gain when you do damage. Now the damage one is also dependent on the damage itself, the more damage you do the more focus you will get. Also the focus that you get from the damage is not displayed on the character stats like the overall focus gain is. I hope they will fix this and add all the stats information in later patches but for now it’s not displayed.
Hello, i was wondering how could you have 161 HP with 20 health and negative 22% on weapon. Only HP perk i see being in the armor gem (+16%). I only have like 105 with 22 health stat
Just before the boss fight I eat “Sirloin Platter”. It’s a dish that you can craft by using quality meat and lithops herb. This dish gives you another 45 health for 600 seconds. The ingredients you can buy from Gordon the chef.
@@LarryPuss i see ty for the tip. But that still doesnt kinda add up. With 22 health and 105 HP, if i use the food i get 150 HP. How do u have more than me (161) when u have -6% negative HP (+16% armor - 22% weapon) and less health stat ? Was that a "Inn buff" by loggin out while sleeping in a bed ?
thanks for this build. quick question. i equip a weapon but for some reason im attacking with my bear hands. when i check in the inventory i am wearing a weapon. but for some reason it doesnt show in the skill bar and i only have weapon as my main attack. any idea? thanks
It could be that you just need to use your the left cross buttons on the controller to reselect your weapon… but if not I’m not sure, it might also be a bug, the game is still in Early Access, give a review to the game and address the problems in the review this way the developers will definitely see it and hopefully try to fix it…
Does this build work with pestilent throw? (It worked, I tested it just now). Another question is, where do I get the festering earth and the focus rings?
Everything is random in this game. The sword I got from a normal enemy in a Crucible run. And the focus rings: one from daily bounty and one from again Crucible run, normal knight. Also the sword was common grade, I enchanted it and it rolled this awesome stats.
Not sure, maybe it’s intended as I only managed to get so op very late in the game. And even if it’s not I think they will focus on the bugs, UI and overall game content before they jump to the balance stuff.
@LarryPuss Nah these devs are relentless lol. They've been on top of fixing bugs and everything, on top of nerfing extremely powerful builds. I know of 3 builds that already got destroyed
nah, it's nerfed for sure, but if you invest more into focus (I put on 3 focus rings) it's still spammy and super broken. The crucible boss is still easily staggard.
@@dillchillin still works and is still broken. Yes the focus gain is less now but it’s not very noticeable. I’m trying to find another high damage weapon as I now enchanted a better gear but I want to also change it to an ice throw… still farming for that high damage weapon
The cat animation? Well made the cat illustration in adobe Illustrator and I animated it in adobe Character. I made mouth shapes for the major syllable and then I just add my voice.
You can get it from the weapon “Climbing pick”, and the weapon is available from the start of the game. Unfortunately all the loot in this game is random, you can get it from any chest, enemy drop and even daily challenges. Hope it helps.
Where did you get those focus ring? I finished 3 realm with fully upgraded town with 3 different char and i never seen one, nor the damage % dealt one ( not rune damage )?
Do you check the overall speed mechanic? Does it works? Cause i construct very fast attack speed build through daggers with lifesteal and it seems like unworkable mechanic - overall speed((((((
I haven’t, this is a strength build… however, I’m working right now on levelling a new character to try dexterity build. I did tried the rings that gives attack speed for a while though, I had 3 of them at the same time and I didn’t see any difference in attack speed.
@@LarryPuss that’s the point. In logic if your strength build has 2 ring on focus regen and it works the overall speed rigs might be the same but in practice it looks like broken mechanic it doesn’t stuck it doesn’t work(( it’s a pity, Puss
Not bad, its quite safe due to the range but there is a better melee build, I cant give details due to nerfs so i wish to keep the build private ( Boo I know ) but it deals 280+ damage 1 on a single attack, I down echo in less than 30 seconds total, Build also comes with 1.4k Armor 240HP. Seems you got a ways to go.
@@robertmotion6100 thank you… I checked every vendor but there is nothing with that rune. Have i to enchant the item? Upgrade it? Tell me please… oh, Who is the vendor that sell the climbing pick?
@@allitterazioneforzata1063 Unfortunately all the loot in this game is random, you can get it from any chest, enemy drop and even daily challenges. Hope it helps.
@@allitterazioneforzata1063 the drop for the weapon is random, it’s not form any vendor. You can find the normal throwing skill from an axe a the blacksmith but the fire one it’s from “climbers pick” weapon that drops random. When I said it’s from the start of the game I mean it can drop at any level, some items only drop when you are higher lever but the climbers pick can drop from level 1. Maybe try to get the normal throwing rune with no element from the axe at the blacksmith and keep farming using that until you find a weapon that has the element throw like fire/ice/electric. The normal throw also does a lot of damage.
This is basically how I defeated the Echo Knight last knight for the firsr time. Bunch of focus gain increase equipment and using one handed curved sword with Ice throw. I love it but Definitely OP. Maybe they could balance it a bit by increasing the focus cost or decreasing how much poise break/freeze it does
They will definitely balance it, the skill I mean. I’ve been testing a lot of builds lately and no matter what build I go, I still come to the throwing runes, they are just to overpowered and the fact that they can go in any weapon nullifies the whole purpose of the build path as you just put it on any weapon and go melt everything… the Ice throw is even more unbalanced as it freezes everything in 2 hits, the last boss will be standing still for you frozen in place while you dance around him.
I also found Lightning Throw rune later, so I’m guessing you are referring to the “Cold Throw Rune”?. If yes it’s because I haven’t found it yet. I notice that cold seems to be the best element to immobilize enemies, but with my current build as I also found another ring that gives me another 27% rune damage I’m literally one shot killing everything in the game with the fire throw build, even the Crucible boss dies in 3 hits.
hello, how can you have 161 life by having 20 points in health and a malus of 6% in health lol? (-22% weapon and +14% on armor) with 20 in health i have just 96 life and you have a malus of 6% xD
Just before the boss I eat a “Sirloin Platter”, it’s a dish that you can craft by using quality meat and lithops herb. This dish gives you another 45 health for 600 seconds. The ingredients you can buy from Gordon the cook.
You played terribly in the bossfight but won because of a broken mechanic. This video highlights exactly what can ruin games. This meta bullshit of just spamming one skill and removing all fun. I literally did this build but even more effective with ice throw since it freezes the enemies and the echo knight boss very quickly. I cleared the echo knight faster than you did by like 50%. But it's clearly a broken mechanic so I didn't continue using it. You shouldn't be able to play so poorly and still win against a hard boss like that. You didn't even need to learn to dodge properly. They could nerf the throwing weapon skills into the ground and it would still be effective but in a good use case from ranged. Currently it does more damage and uses less resource than any other skill and has more range and can be spammed, it's clearly just broken. It should only work on 1 handed weapons, use 150 or more, have a cooldown on the skill and a very slight nerf to speed, damage can stay.

Oh no. Now I have to level up my 5th Twink with a pure strength build. :D
I’ve only found 4 topaz’s in my whole 30 hours and two of them have rolled 1% on my weapons so far 🙄 desperately waiting for an update for those shenanigans
I actually am working on a tank build and it happened to me as well I got an 1% on a gem… luck is also part of the game I guess
@@LarryPuss Sure, but the luck should be from the weapon dropping and the enchantment rolls, not a a lot machine game I play 4 times for each gem in socket for taking the custom route. Very anti fun. Especially when I upgraded that weapon all the way from I-III BEFORE socketing the gem, so now it’s a terrible weapon that I’ve dumped tons of resources into.
X_x how did you actually roll this item? i experiment alot with crafting, the chance seems to be arround 1/350 for getting both gains. But then there is still your high weapon roll. Did you use an item editor by any chance?
Lucky I guess… I don’t even know what an item editor is?? and if that’s a hack or cheat I don’t see the fun in that, I’m playing for the fun not for the win. The important stat is the focus gain on damage dealt and I got this stat on a lot of my rolls.
% focus on damage dealt is so hard to find... I've played for almost 60 hours and I think I've found it on 2 weapons, 1% and 2% focus gained... I really want to try a build similar to this but I just can't get these drops.
I actually found a lot of them but only after I got to max level and only doing the Crucible. I also have around 60+ hours.
@@LarryPuss It is pure random - for example you mention tyou cannot get Cold Throw Rune and I have 3 :D - like I say - pure luck
Whats the point of using fire throw rune instead of ice throw? It freezes the boss
I didn’t found it at that time. Yes ice throw is better.
How did you get Festering Earth to drop so often?
it's random drop but I did had a lot of them. I have around 150 of Crucible runs at the moment and this weapon has dropped a lot but this one, that you see in this video has the highest damage so far.
may I ask how to get the ring" band of calmness"?? I've played more than 100 hrs, still couldn't find it.....
I’ve had it as drop many times, but a way to farm rings and crafting materials is to go to the merchant Greinnich and he will sell rings and materials. If he doesn’t have any rings or the ring you need you can create diferent realms and keep going to him in every one of them until you find the ring you want, if you upgrade his shop to level 3 you have more chances to find rings. You can also exit the game change the date to a day forward and his shop will be refresh, keep doing that until you find the desired ring.
@@LarryPuss oh, it might be a good way, Thanks for your advice, I'll try it.👍
Where does the Festering Earth drops from?
Fire throw FTW
Where can I get Fire throw? Not seen it once in my play through.
@@dom4099 Its super easy to get it. Its from Climbing Pick, a weapon that is available from start of the game
@@PixPunxel Thanks man, not sure I've ever seen one drop...
@@dom4099 You often get it as reward for dailyes
They nerf focus gained, does this build still work? 😢😢
It works on the damage part… in the focus gain it’s bad now, you need to use a lot of potions and the potions themselves also have been nerf from 300 focus to 150 per potion.
Where can you get those focus rings? Or is it just random drop?
It’s random drop, you can get them from chests, from enemy drop and even daily challenges. But, most high chance is you can get them at the end of the boss in crucible, in the last chest most of the time you will find rings and a rune.
@LarryPuss Thanks man. Great video by the way, keep em coming 👏
Is there a difference between the throwing rune elements? IE: can I choose Ice or Plague throw instead and the damage output is the same or no?
In terms of base damage, it should be the same. Now I’m not completely sure but from what I’ve experience the plague and fire act similar as they do a bit more damage over time after used, the electric one has better damage when you hit multiple enemies and in my opinion the ice is the most overpowered one as it freezes enemies in place… I mean I throw the skill at an enemy that was jumping to kill me and I froze him mid air in the most awkward stance possible 😂.
@@LarryPuss Haha, does sound OP. Just found an ice throw rune myself. Hard to find festering earths though, and even harder to get good enchant :D
GLHF
How can i get the rune fire throw and this weapon?
It’s from the weapon “Climbers pick”, it’s random drop either from chests, enemy drop or even daily challenges but I’ve found it multiple times from the start of the game. Just keep an eye out for it and extract the rune. The rune skill can be added to any weapon after.
Would you recommend going all common quality for the armor pieces or attempt enchanting?
As a start yes. If you just started the game it’s safer to go common quality with gems. Later game when you have more money it’s better to try to buy armour from the vendors and keep enchanting until you get the desired stats. For example enchanted armour can give you besides the basic armour and poise, percentage stats of armour and poise, you can get this stats together with percentage health increase or stamina increase, and then you can also add one more gem to make this even higher. So in conclusion enchanting can give you better results but it’s a gamble as it can also give you horrible results, so common with gems is safer at the start.
@@LarryPuss Thank you for the response!
Would armor, focus, resistance and poise be the main things to look out for on enchants?
Thrown weapon will get nerfed... for sure.
If you think Fire Throw was strong wait till you get Lightning and Ice Throw. You literally rotate between staggering and freezing the Echo Knight.
Throw does too much poise damage for a range attack.
Get the highest damage weapon and just throw away.
I actually got both ice and lightning runes but I’m now looking for a good weapon to add them to. Still farming to get a good weapon drop… thanks for the suggestion, I never considered using both at the same time though.
@larryPuss where can I find lightning throw rune?
@@ВикторК-у9э Ice throw and Lightning throw are 22 stat items. So you can start a new realm and rush into Nameless Pass to have a better change to get the weapons that has them.
Lightning throw is from Curved Sword and Ice Throw is from a Rapier not sure about their name anymore.
Or you can open the chest after Echo Knight which will award one rune and it can roll it.
@@reishia I have an ice throw rune. Did not see lightning throw. Tnx for answer!
plus, only 50 focus - practically every melee rune in the game is on 100, its mad that the best one randomly has 50
hey, i got over 70% focus gain and still running out of focus.....did they patched something? or am i missing something?
You need “get focus % on damage dealt”, if you only have focus gain it’s not going to do anything. The focus gain will increase the “focus % from damage” but on its own it will not do much of anything.
@@LarryPuss thx mate! That was the missing piece.
How much focus is ideal for a str base build?
It depends on the str build, in the one I’m showing here let’s say around 150 focus should do it but If I’m being honest I would have not invested any points in focus if I knew I would find rings that give me 100 focus. Just having one of those rings should be enough.
maybe it doesn't work anymore, now i fire throw and the focus bar dont refill :c
Yah they nerf the focus gain. Everything about the build still works except the focus gain.
@@LarryPuss so it doesnt work anymore, the bar wont refill? we have to use focus potions now?
Is that a poise meter on the boss? Mod or just something I never noticed?
Probably poise, but I can’t say for certain as I don’t know. I’m not using any mods or other external tools.
yes the white bar is poise, I think you have to enable it in options
Oh, you're already very level. Why are you so good?
I’m not that good… I just like the game. The game is easy when you get the hang of it.
I just ''completed'' the build, i have the same 2 rings (26% and 27% focus gain), all my armor pieces gives me focus on hit (full plate armor sitting on 800 armour) and the weapon is not the best one, but does the job done, considering im still lvl 27. And i dont know if its for the latest patch or something but, when i do normal hits the focus regen works fine but, considering i should have +100% focus regen on hit, when i use Fire Throw, it doesnt regen ANY focus...
U guys are having the same issue? is just patched?
I literally just logged into the gate to test it and it still works for me. The “focus gain” stat is good and is increasing your focus gain overall but the most important one if you really want to look out for is the “ gain focus % on damage dealt” found on the weapon. So it should still work just as you see in my video… for now. I was working today on another build with focus regeneration and that one does not work at all, you are looking for focus regeneration then it’s not going to work, you need focus on damage dealt on the weapon and focus gain on the rest of your equipment.
@@LarryPuss all my armor pieces, the weapon, and the 2 rings, all gives me focus gain on hit. In fact, as i said, when i use normal attacks or backstab i gain focus like crazy.
Is just then i use the Rune attack ''Fire Throw'' when i dont have any focus gain on hit,,,
Did you find all of your equipped gear inside the crucible?
The armour for example I got it from a large chest in the Nameless Pass. One ring from daily bounty. The pants are actually bought from the blacksmith and I keep rolling enchanted until I got an acceptable one… and the rest yes from the crucible, but mostly as drops from normal enemies not the boss.
If you test you will see your first ring for the rune damage does not work and you can remove it :)
You are badly mistaken. The funny thing is I actually found another ring that gives damage to rune 27%. I replaced one of the rings of calmness with it and now I’m literally one hit killing everything. In this video you see it sometimes takes me 2 hits to kill an enemy and with 2 of those rings I now can kill them in one shot. The last boss in the run I can now kill in 3 hits, soo broken!! They will definitely balance this at one point but I can say with certainty that the first ring works.
the funny thing about this game is most builds are broken you can literally go full hp build and go with reflect setup and heal when hit and things die without you needing to do anything and the more hp you have the more dmg you can take and dish out while healing for more the higher ur hp so literally an afk build lol. this game wasnt made with balance at all in mind currently so they will either nerf everything or make things ridiculously harder that broken builds are mandatory.
@@LarryPuss well just did the test as soon as I had time --> my chain lightning is doing 156 dmg without such ring --> i have equipped 2 rings increasing the rune damage with 31% which made the chain lightning do 167 dmg in which universe is this working? :)
i know where to get the fire/cold throw runes but i heard there is a lightning one does anyone know what weapon has it would love to try it ? :)
Is not easy obtain a specific weapon with specific Perk when everything is random xD
lightning assault - ye ye
you got focus gain 53 and i got 63 and still cant get everything back bro
do you have the focus gain on weapon and using the gem in it?
@@robertmotion6100 yes i did, when I kill the mobs i just received less points back while he receivees almost double
There are 2 types of focus gain. One is focus gain in general that from all sources and the other is focus gain when you do damage. Now the damage one is also dependent on the damage itself, the more damage you do the more focus you will get. Also the focus that you get from the damage is not displayed on the character stats like the overall focus gain is. I hope they will fix this and add all the stats information in later patches but for now it’s not displayed.
What is the name of the song that plays at the end of the video?
Hello, i was wondering how could you have 161 HP with 20 health and negative 22% on weapon. Only HP perk i see being in the armor gem (+16%). I only have like 105 with 22 health stat
Just before the boss fight I eat “Sirloin Platter”. It’s a dish that you can craft by using quality meat and lithops herb. This dish gives you another 45 health for 600 seconds. The ingredients you can buy from Gordon the chef.
@@LarryPuss i see ty for the tip. But that still doesnt kinda add up. With 22 health and 105 HP, if i use the food i get 150 HP.
How do u have more than me (161) when u have -6% negative HP (+16% armor - 22% weapon) and less health stat ?
Was that a "Inn buff" by loggin out while sleeping in a bed ?
thanks for this build. quick question. i equip a weapon but for some reason im attacking with my bear hands. when i check in the inventory i am wearing a weapon. but for some reason it doesnt show in the skill bar and i only have weapon as my main attack. any idea? thanks
It could be that you just need to use your the left cross buttons on the controller to reselect your weapon… but if not I’m not sure, it might also be a bug, the game is still in Early Access, give a review to the game and address the problems in the review this way the developers will definitely see it and hopefully try to fix it…
Does this build work with pestilent throw? (It worked, I tested it just now). Another question is, where do I get the festering earth and the focus rings?
Everything is random in this game. The sword I got from a normal enemy in a Crucible run. And the focus rings: one from daily bounty and one from again Crucible run, normal knight. Also the sword was common grade, I enchanted it and it rolled this awesome stats.
@@LarryPuss thanks man, I already got the sword in a run, I'm trying to drop the ring now.
This shit is broken. They're going to nerf weapon throws.
Not sure, maybe it’s intended as I only managed to get so op very late in the game. And even if it’s not I think they will focus on the bugs, UI and overall game content before they jump to the balance stuff.
@LarryPuss Nah these devs are relentless lol. They've been on top of fixing bugs and everything, on top of nerfing extremely powerful builds. I know of 3 builds that already got destroyed
They nerfed it I guess with Patch 1 now. Less life leech, less focus gain, more focus cost for elemental throw. @LarryPuss
Did the nerfs kill the build?
nah, it's nerfed for sure, but if you invest more into focus (I put on 3 focus rings) it's still spammy and super broken. The crucible boss is still easily staggard.
@@dillchillin still works and is still broken. Yes the focus gain is less now but it’s not very noticeable. I’m trying to find another high damage weapon as I now enchanted a better gear but I want to also change it to an ice throw… still farming for that high damage weapon
@LarryPuss I'm using a high damage 2hand axe. The throw animation is broken, but it works.
Howm do you get 500+ focus points with only 19 focus?
“Band of Calmness” rings that give focus increase by x%.
how you make the moves it mouth xD
The cat animation? Well made the cat illustration in adobe Illustrator and I animated it in adobe Character. I made mouth shapes for the major syllable and then I just add my voice.
where do you get the fire throw rune?
boss?
You can get it from the weapon “Climbing pick”, and the weapon is available from the start of the game. Unfortunately all the loot in this game is random, you can get it from any chest, enemy drop and even daily challenges. Hope it helps.
Where did you get those focus ring? I finished 3 realm with fully upgraded town with 3 different char and i never seen one, nor the damage % dealt one ( not rune damage )?
I got like 5 of them now. One ring I got from the daily bounty and the rest just normal drops from enemies in the Crucible. It’s random drop…
@@LarryPuss I must be really unlucky, since then I've dropped 3 "% damage rings" but still haven't seen a single focus ring lol.
hi, where did you farm the embers to acess to crucible ? thx
Everywhere, you can literally find them anywhere. From chests, from digging, from killing enemies as loot and daily challenges. It’s random.
@@LarryPuss thank you
damn, i have 80 in chest, i didn know what is it, hahah xD
Where do you get the rune fire throw? I dont found it 😢
I’m actually showing where I got the rune in my previous video at minute 14:25. Hope it helps.
There no vid
You can get it from the weapon “Climbing pick”. Random drop.
Do you check the overall speed mechanic? Does it works? Cause i construct very fast attack speed build through daggers with lifesteal and it seems like unworkable mechanic - overall speed((((((
I haven’t, this is a strength build… however, I’m working right now on levelling a new character to try dexterity build. I did tried the rings that gives attack speed for a while though, I had 3 of them at the same time and I didn’t see any difference in attack speed.
theres a bug right now with rings where attack speed doesn't work
@@LarryPuss that’s the point. In logic if your strength build has 2 ring on focus regen and it works the overall speed rigs might be the same but in practice it looks like broken mechanic it doesn’t stuck it doesn’t work(( it’s a pity, Puss
@@jwl2658 not only rings. The hole bunch of loot with this affix doesn’t work
@@LarryPuss the rouge agility build with daggers without aspeed boost is like cow level in D4. It seems like being but no.
Not bad, its quite safe due to the range but there is a better melee build, I cant give details due to nerfs so i wish to keep the build private ( Boo I know ) but it deals 280+ damage 1 on a single attack, I down echo in less than 30 seconds total, Build also comes with 1.4k Armor 240HP. Seems you got a ways to go.

@@allitterazioneforzata1063 Unfortunately all the loot in this game is random, you can get it from any chest, enemy drop and even daily challenges. Hope it helps.
@@allitterazioneforzata1063 the drop for the weapon is random, it’s not form any vendor. You can find the normal throwing skill from an axe a the blacksmith but the fire one it’s from “climbers pick” weapon that drops random. When I said it’s from the start of the game I mean it can drop at any level, some items only drop when you are higher lever but the climbers pick can drop from level 1. Maybe try to get the normal throwing rune with no element from the axe at the blacksmith and keep farming using that until you find a weapon that has the element throw like fire/ice/electric. The normal throw also does a lot of damage.
@@LarryPuss thank you very much for the specific answer! Great job with this video by the way 💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻
This is basically how I defeated the Echo Knight last knight for the firsr time. Bunch of focus gain increase equipment and using one handed curved sword with Ice throw. I love it but Definitely OP.
Maybe they could balance it a bit by increasing the focus cost or decreasing how much poise break/freeze it does
They will definitely balance it, the skill I mean. I’ve been testing a lot of builds lately and no matter what build I go, I still come to the throwing runes, they are just to overpowered and the fact that they can go in any weapon nullifies the whole purpose of the build path as you just put it on any weapon and go melt everything… the Ice throw is even more unbalanced as it freezes everything in 2 hits, the last boss will be standing still for you frozen in place while you dance around him.
does this still work?
Yes it does.
@@LarryPuss you should help me to do it i don't get much focus back
Fire over cold?
I also found Lightning Throw rune later, so I’m guessing you are referring to the “Cold Throw Rune”?. If yes it’s because I haven’t found it yet. I notice that cold seems to be the best element to immobilize enemies, but with my current build as I also found another ring that gives me another 27% rune damage I’m literally one shot killing everything in the game with the fire throw build, even the Crucible boss dies in 3 hits.

@@LarryPuss i have 112% restore focus (gear), and 3% focus deal damage weapon (stone) more 5% more focus deal damage (bônus roll enchant)
Dood. Cuteness overloads...
first
You played terribly in the bossfight but won because of a broken mechanic. This video highlights exactly what can ruin games. This meta bullshit of just spamming one skill and removing all fun.
I literally did this build but even more effective with ice throw since it freezes the enemies and the echo knight boss very quickly. I cleared the echo knight faster than you did by like 50%. But it's clearly a broken mechanic so I didn't continue using it.
You shouldn't be able to play so poorly and still win against a hard boss like that. You didn't even need to learn to dodge properly.
They could nerf the throwing weapon skills into the ground and it would still be effective but in a good use case from ranged. Currently it does more damage and uses less resource than any other skill and has more range and can be spammed, it's clearly just broken. It should only work on 1 handed weapons, use 150 or more, have a cooldown on the skill and a very slight nerf to speed, damage can stay.
Dude, you're like level 600. Calm down.
If you think that’s op you should see the my other builds.
