Made the switch from Pure lightning Dinive Ire ignite to this, and I have been having a blast! It's amazing how much damage it can pump out while still be pretty tough with just a few chaos. A quick note though, especially for the budget version - Use Blood rage! It's a single gem that not only generate relieable frenzy charges for massive DPS increase, but the move- and castspeed is makes it even smoother and faster. Thanks for the guide and build. Respect from Denmark
@@randomkid802 poeprices hasn't caught up yet. At the moment all regular devotions are out of stock, leaving only the more expensive corruptions starting at 40 chaos on the trading site itself. So prices haven't technically increased that much, the cheap ones are simply out of stock. That being said, the price definitely is increasing rapidly.
I think it was last league that I tried your discharge build? This one is so much better. Well done. Update: With this build I was able to do Maven, A8 Sirus, full simulacrum, Uber Elder, Hall of GM...literally everything. The two guides that took you from cheap to expensive were truly helpful. This is hands down the best build I have ever had so thank you again.
First of all thumbs up for the guide + sub :) Imho though you could have been clearer on the lack of defences of this build. If it helps anyone (newer) here is my experience with the build so far. Pro: - Fun xplosion booms, if you like that sort of thing. - Really excellent boss dmg potential, watch bosses literally melt early on (on the appropriate tier depending on gear) - Elemantal Ailment avoidance thanks to golems is always good - Superb boss performance Neutral: - Hit seems to kill porcupines, Cremator doesn't work - maybe I do not understand Cremator, I am new to ignite. - Budget gear got expensive quick :) - Getting the clusters will be expensive if you buy them (recommend scorched spam - it is not hard to hit Blowback + Burning Bright) - Crafting the weapon is hit or miss mostly thanks to Awakener Rng - You definitely want a "cannot be silenced" on a jewel somewhere - running into packs unable to do anything is really, really bad - Do not expect to 1-shot Maven as in the video until you have all the pieces together, including good crafted items as shown - If your damage is high enough really consider quality of life changes to 1-2 of your jewels - The cooldown based playstyle might not be for everyone in regards to maps Con: - Literally NO defences apart from life pool and stealth and phasing, if you count that. This build is kill or be killed when it comes to packs. Attacks from bosses are easier to avoid though. - You will die a lot. Though I might just suck: When Badger says this is a softcore build he really means expect to die multiple times a map even though you will 1 shot pretty much all packs. The problem is if any hits do get through to you, which happens a lot with the right density, you die instantly. - The endgame build/gameplay feels really incomplete until you get all the pieces to fall in line. The progression feels like all or nothing at times, especially once you want to use Farrul's. - Do not attempt to play with Farrul's unless you have Aspect of the Cat on your gloves / boots (no room on helm?). This is understated in the guide. With the standard cooldown gaining the charges will make you feel useless in a fast paced game like this. Stick with the budget version until you have your gloves set / boots set with less duration. My personal verdict: Mapping with such few defences really feels subpar as I don't personally enjoy dying so many times to random things. Also, if you do not have charges up in certain situations expect to die - it takes a while to get used to the playstyle. Getting to 95+ in maps will be a pain. The bossing however, is why I started this build in the first place - and though my gear is very far from optimal I am already seeing the fruits of (Badger's) labor. Once everything comes together this build excels in that area and watching bosses tick down like nothing is really fun. I just wish the way to the high end would be more enjoyable, I guess. Although watching a screen go boom is fun in itself. If you do not buy all the gear pre-made this will definitely turn into a labor of love (or hate depending on how much you enjoy meta-crafting). For me this is a neutral point. The squishiest build I have done UElder with so far was a Shock Nova Inqui - this might just be up there in terms of deaths. In Summary: I would push this only as a bosser, with a completely seperate mapper char and if I am willing to commit to the invest. Stay clear if you do not like dying or expect to get results as in the video on 5 ex :)
Great summary, Timmers. I tried the build myself on "budget" but probably wont continue to play it. While the DPS in the PoB is looking great the build is really really squishy and you will die *a lot*. And I cant see the build able to run Endgame without heavy investment into at least Farruls Fur/6L Searing/Fire pen Helmet and Cluster Jewels.
Just a tip for you who are going to play this, consider swapping a damage support for second wind/anonalous second wind while mapping, and the discharge cooldown won’t feel shit at all
Also use the Red Nightmare jewel instead in the marauder area to replace Thread of Hope. It is much more tanky and the clearing is faster since you will be at max endurance charges almost all the time.
I would add death's door as well gor bleed immunity but crafted boots are better for the price.Also factor divine flesh if you have the currency to stack chaos res in your gear.
Been using Discharge Ignite Chieftain and was thinking of rolling one of these. I figured the ceiling was much higher given how powerful her rework was.
Finally decided to give self-cast a go after... I don't know how many Fakener/trigger builds I've played, using your guide. This build slaps, hard. Sitting at 10.5m/4.5m realistic dps, with nothing but max charges and shock from focus. I don't think 6-7ex has carried me this hard in a while. Thanks for all the detail put into the presentation of this guide.
loved the build. As u said i was just bored to see any other bladeblast or bladevortex or any archmage build so thank you for this beautiful discharge build.
Hi Badger, I made a lot of videos about this build during Heist, back then I was the only Trickster in a sea of Chieftain, and the only one playing with a farrul fur for a long time (on poe.ninja), before the Elementalist rework. Using Stormfire and Hrimburn to get ignite on power and frenzy charges. I did hit 15m iDPS back then. I planed to play and do videos about the elementalist version for Rituals, but when I saw you were playing it, being a huge fan of you, I decided to wait until you let your video out first. You explain stuff better than me, and editing/timing is way better than me. Really glad I waited, your video is 100% chance better than what I would have done. If you allow me, I would like to do a few videos about concepts, theorycrafting you didnt talk about, and a lot of showcases of the build (and also my version is quite different than yours, playing MoM and Replica Emberwake for a stupid 40m+ DPS). I'm happy you covered the OPness of this build, I was a bit disappointed in Heist that my build was shadowed by Carrion/Aurastackers when it was already "OP" (for softcore). Elementalist makes it simply broken. Hope you allow me to do some videos about it. And i'm insanely jealous of your staff btw. Sell it to meeeee.
Followed Badger's guide early in the league but didn't have the currency to match, I went with a Replica Ambu's Charge and a Eye of innocence Amulet to generate charges. Not as beefy and monster DPS but it's viable as hell to begin with. Currently running t16's and doing fine at 14 M DPS. Thanks again Badger!
Yeah this build is pretty nutty. I think I'll pick up an astral projector so I don't have to wade into packs to drop discharge Update: Almost finished with the campaign, been using discharge since I got the amulet at 36. A couple things I found during the process: 1) Astral projector is amazing. You lose the stats of your ring slot but it feels really great and is so much safer. 2)A low budget option while leveling for power charge generation is the storm prison wand. Once you have the voll's devotion, the wand plus the amulet can carry discharge just about exclusively, with the need for only a seldom enduring cry / mob kill for charges. 3) If the 2 second cooldown on discharge feels clunky don't use the jewel that gives you lower cooldown. Just throw in a second wind instead of a damage support for clearing and it clears like a dream. The cooldown reduction plus extra charge basically means you can use it whenever you see monsters. That paired with the astral projector I feel like I'm blasting 10 stack flame blasts instantly wherever I want. 4) Anomalous discharge is a nice option to make it cast significantly faster if you don't mind the slightly lower damage. 5) Once you get your stone golem Blood Rage is great for passively keeping up frenzy charges before you get the fur
Great guide 👍 Tip my hat to you. Finally a great build guide from a great POE youtuber that actually explain how you got to endgame and which gems you used to get there, not just here's the build and gear and you figure it out I'm still a newbie at the game only can play one league a year and I missed about three years of league. So once again thanks for I build I will try in ritual league. Hope if you got time in the future to make an extensive detailed video on the state of crafting there's a lot I missed in 3 years lolol Thanks
i like the build very much but i have a few questions... 1. does "fan the flames" and ignite prolif add up or the bigger radius of each wins (wich would be ignite prolif)? 2. how bad/good would it be to use endurance cry for endu charge and badge of brotherhood for more frenzy charges? i'm thinking about your endgame Rod, just as a wand/scepter and Redblade Banner (together with "call to arms" and war cry cooldown), with more global cooldown aspect rota would also be faster 3. what about arcanist brand - wave of conviction - combustion setup (4th link Cwdt)? 4. what about storm brand - awk hextouch - flammability - ele weakness setup? 5. would using the cluster jewel note "Corrosive Elements" be enough reason to spend 2 points on "mastermind of Discord"? if yes, we could switch ignite prolif with combustion and can safe sockets from wave of conviction setup. with my idea you would get a total of 25 charges without corruptions (9 endu: 3normal, 3tree, 3gear, 8 power: 3normal, 3tree, 2gear, 8 frenzy: badge of brotherhood) and a total of -120% enemie fire resist (-35%exposure, -45% flammability, -40% ele weakness)(even more -fire resist when still using EE). i dont have enough currency to test this, i just would like to know if these are some good ideas or complete garbage.
For the budget build, I reworked the storm brand and wave of conviction links to a single 4-link with hextouch and flammability. Storm brand doesn't crit so much that it needs controlled destruction. I used the extra 4-link for CWDT - Immortal Call - Inc Duration + Malevolence. Much tankier.
If you're in between budget and end game version, using the phantasmal version of discharge with 20% quality, gives you 40% extra damage when discharge uses the 3 different charges.
I'm trying this out now (new-ish player, first league). You can get the build rolling at level 28 when you can equip Discharge, by finding/buying a Storm Prison Carved Wand (+1 max power charges and 33% chance of power charge on kill) which I'm using with Power Siphon (20% chance to gain a power charge when projectile hits a rare or unique enemy). I just hit level 28, put Discharge in a 4L chest (I can get max 4 charges now), and it's working really well so far! Thanks for the guide. And once I reach level 32 and can get a Voll's Devotion it should be even better. Edit: Add in Enduring Cry at level 10 for Endurance Charges around powerful enemies.
Some notes, Fan the flames is useless if you have ignite prolif socketed. In the staff video, you recommend rem/add lightning for the +2, but cold has better chance of hitting as there are less cold mods to hit. Also, I wouldn't tick shock on sirus, it's a very low chance of happening since crit chance is very low and no real shock chance elsewhere.
Boots is one of the last things I need, helmet missing the ignite faster, have double resist and everything else. And my Eventuality Rod is missing one of the charges but with your boots i'd break 65m, currently at 55m. I picked up on your PoB several videos ago and built it last week without the guide and knew where you were going with it. Staff I think is 2 million total damage per ignite behind yours, but its close. It's been a blast...literally. No boss really survives a maxed out single discharge. Really well done with the build. There is no content I could not do. Worst thing about the build is if you're tryin to max out your clear speed, you are gated by the charge reset, but it has a flow to it thats really nice, and wave of conviction kills most (non juiced things) without a thought on T16+ content if you need a filler for smaller enemies. Also see you have Awakened swift affliction which could help with the charge reset that I didn't think of. Again well done.
HEADS UP: My noise gate played up a bit in the recording here, so a few words cut out now and then - hope its bearable! Let me know if you enjoy the build! EDIT 1: I Appear to have screwed up the colour bar, use the youtube timestamps to jump correctly! EDIT 2: LEL soz about the prices of Voll's devotion, oops
Noooo it kinda went up to an ex already :( Guess some guys bought those few available and offer them for an ex or more now, how lame. I REFUSE TO BUY IT FROM THEM.
Great guide, thanks! Only thing I wish a little more time was put in was the links and stuff for the leveling section. You mention some skills, like Divine Ire for single target, but I have no idea what those links should be
I've been playing a similar build, but focused on end charges via enduring cry and Redblade banner. I use charged mines + arc mines for generating power & frenzy vs bosses. If people can't find the uniques mentioned in the video they can try this method. Also using red dream + green/blue dream for charge on kill during clear.
Hey Badger, I don't know if you have tried this, but you can use a storm prison wand while you are trying to get a searing touch lathi. It also is a big help until you can use the romiras feast. It gives power charges on kill at 25% I believe. I just wanted to throw that out there to see what you think.
This looks great! I tried an Elementalist version and the DPS didn't feel better despite the PoB DPS looking WAY higher, but after watching this, I'm going to try again because the single target DPS looks way better. I actually recorded a Realm Ender/conversion version of the Chieftan build and I'm wondering if I should release it after seeing this The less duration/swift affliction trick in the gloves to speed up the Aspect is SO smart. Man, I wish I'd thought of that sooner, but I crafted it on my belt lol
Awesome build and I'm currently bringing it together as my second build of the league. The leveling tree works great with a Poet's Pen Power Siphon + Flame Wall set up a la the flameslinger build. It's been a fun way to level up and I'm I'll be keeping an eye on that Voll's devotion price as I get closer to swapping over to the discharge set up hehe
i love some of your builds, i actually did plan to play this back when i was saving some currency for it, but now ty for your video prices have gone crazy xD
Badger, this is hands fucking down my favorite build I've ever played. Beating out the old Poet's VD for me. Do you have a Discord channel or something man? There is so much you can do with the end game build and I'd love to be able to talk to others about it. YT comments are trash (the format, these actual comments are good). You really should put this on the forums too. The Ele Discharge builds on there are trash, and this would likely overtake DI Ignite in terms of fun.
Yeah this build laughs at rituals, its very rare I die to any of them. I'm talking you need alot of juice for me to die to a ritual. Super high attack speed, multple damage mods, delirium added onto it, etc. Or maybe i'm trying to traverse a map and get unlucky with the ignite avoidance and get caught, but 99.9% of the time, zero issues because the self cast is just pop and enjoy. And it's rare a ritual lasts more then....10-30 seconds depending. Doing double guardian maps no issues, uber fights no issues, etc.
Ignite discharge uses ignite proliferation meaning the corpses will spread the ignite for a while after death. With the high damage ignites this makes rituals extremely easy. Just get a cinderswallow and you won't ever die under normal conditions
And i just started my Penance brand char.. oh well now i know which one's up after that! Very interested in this one, Discharge is my all time favourite skill ingame. Ty man!
While leveling I used Doedre's Elixir and Frenzy to get charges because you can't use the ring until level 60. It was clunky but let me start using Discharge right away. Enduring cry for bosses. Equip Voll's Devotion right away. Very fast leveling. Dies easy if you get stunned before your discharge goes off. I used two storm prison wands to get more power charges until I could equip the fire staff.
After you added guide i bought this amulet for 10c now ppls want 2-4ex for it ^^ i guess i was lucky and now i have a BLAST with this build! thanks man.
Ice golem instead of one of the other four? Which one and why? Personally I'm glad for the remaining sockets bc it let me work in cwdt/IC which helps a ton with survivability. Also saves me the hassle/cost of the second 6L
Why are we taking Elemental Equilibrium during leveling? How do we apply it? Also you say we use Div Ire for single target and Armageddon Brand for clear, what support gems do we link them with? Do they go to the same 6link chest for double 5l setup?
Hello, I have a question! where is the link of the build? I swear I went there once and now it's gone! it's a bit easyer to follow the build there! thanks.
Why not have a pair of abberath's hooves for map clearing? They give "true" ignite prolif, in that it behaves like poison prolif where it spreads infinitely.
No crafting guide on helm gloves boots I spend around 80ex and so far on my helm I got :1- with plus one frenzy 2- with nearby enemy's-12%resistance Boots ingnite faster 10% and +1 endurance Gloves: aspect of the cat and some fire dmg over time Those 3 items are really hard to craft no guide so far so I think on helm u need to get first nearby enemy's-12% resistance and ignite dmg faster 15% block suffix add +1 to frenzy it's hard to also get 100 life that would be around 50+ ex depends on luck(only one item) I haven't get too much into boots and gloves I imagine 80 more ex for both to don t say about staff that I imagine is around 40ex as well(to craft) a total of about 250ex more less as I sayd depends on luck *I will be back with a video review
Thx for the guide! Trying to play it in 3.15 and i have a question on Elemental equilibrium mechanic - if all your hits always ignite, does it mean that when you place a storm brand (which suppose to shock enemies and make them -50% fire res due to this keystone) also ignites the targets and starts dealing fire damage, making them +25% fire res? Would really appreciate if someone could help me out, because sometimes i can spend a solid 5-7 mins killing a t-14 boss with a 1.8 million effective ignite dps, according to my PoB. This makes me feel like i am doing something wrong :)
@@AlexK-iq2ej I did. And the solution is to play another build) simply because you cannot scale this build anymore with the current state of post-nerf harvest crafting :( there is actually no consistent way to craft those double influence items with +charges without insane amount of luck and currency. And i am not even talking about that crazy staff. This is literally impossible to craft it anymore :( It's sad, but true, because the build is very interesting and fun to play.
@@AlexK-iq2ej and what about the Ele.equilibrium - you just have to follow an exact strict button order - storm brand - wave of conviction - flasks - then Discharge. And its very important to have all 3 charges type before discharging. Without endurance charges up there is simply no damage output
Hi grait build! i have a similer bild bat i startat a bit diferent buget version. i used for power charge a Wand:"Storm Prison" with a boot: "Inya's Epiphany" (garent a chans gain max power charg on a single crit or kill) For Frenzy Blood Rage, For Endurance Charge the "Redblade Banner" shild with "Voll' Devotion" and 2 Kaom's Way" rings. Now i have the Fural chast and a staf "Realm Ender Iron Staff". Aktueli i use the staff in waponslot 2. In weaponslot 1 i use "Razor of the Seventh Sun" (recower 1%life if i ignite an enemi) (100% increased burning Damage if you ignite recently) i dont know ot the increased burnin apleis to discharg if i wepanswap to cast discsharg and back. And i use the "Redblade Banner" shild tu use shilcharg an Enduring cray. I swich with a makro on me mick. Mackro swap weapon, aktiwate discharg, swap back :) so im traweling fest, geting fortifay, use Enduring cray for gain fast regen or to gain instant Endurance charge. porpus: i planing to gat "Badge of the Brotherhood Turquoise Amulet" so i wil lose the gain Endurence if i lose Power Charge. Bat with use the 1 and 2 Weapon slot and using Endurin cray problem is solwed and i wil have 23 or if gat the same staf if u then 25 charges. Overkill :)
not sure if I'm missing something obvious, but is there some trick to avoiding stuns on the budget version? Especially in rituals, pretty frequently I'm getting stunned as I cast discharge so the cast is interrupted but I have to wait for the next cooldown
@@dayman0harry I do! I'm sure it's helping, but still, if the first stun happens while I'm casting discharge, I'm stuck waiting for the cooldown :/ I'll try spending 3 points on unwavering stance, see if losing evasion hurts at all
@@camrow Yea give unwavering a go, I just wanted to highlight the pantheon in case you werent running it. To be honest I have found that pantheon to be unreliable and I have been clearly double stunned when using it a few times.
The PoB in the video shows total damage for full duration of ignite, it seems that now PoB only shows the damge per second of ignite, so basically the build is the same
Something that would have been nice is what level should we switch over from fireball to discharge. I'm in Act 4 and my current only source for charges is the Doedre flasks and Shouts.
Hey Badger. I do not know if you will see this. I have been trying to follow your guide and craft my staff. I am so frustrated/ have wasted so many exalts trying to do so. I cannot do what your videos shows me to do. Where do i go for more help?
Have you thought about going shock on the Ascendancy and using the Blackflame ring together with Wither totems? Might improve your damage even further...
nice build guide but in the endgame version wich gems i have to put into the armour xD? you only have 4 4 links and 1 6 links cast on death with portal or sth else ?
What Pantheon nodes do we pick? Also really liking the build but besides huge hp what hard defences does it have, i dont see any immortal call/molten shell or similar hard defences.
Hi Badger! Fun build, looks really cool. One question I have though - how tanky is this build really? The resist and phys reduction look nice, the life pool looks okayish. How often do u get oneshot? Do you feel the missing Chaos resist? When u talk about "can do all the bosses in the game" you mean the new Maven Arena fights? I could imagine the 4 Breachlords could be really hard... Would love your reply on that. Thanks and keep it up!
Rolling a variant of this. The build is reasonably tanky by itself. Can easily be further increased by adding anima stone and 3 primordial eminences for a ton of bufs from golems, 23 phys reduction from chaos golem for instance. The golems will also absorb a lot of damage for you as additional targets which is more helpful than you'd think. Though it does come at the price of some damage. The inherent benefit of building discharge ignite is that you only need to tag an enemy with an ignite after which you can focus on dodging, which is a very safe playstyle. You could also go leapslam fortify for even more defenses. Since the aoe is so big, coupled with ignite proliferation, you don't need to get close either to enemies. It's overall a very safe playstyle that can be very tanky with the right gear. If you want even tankier you can go chieftain. Though damage is kinda capped at 2 mil dps.
My build variant of his (EXTREMELY similiar just a couple minor differences) has 9 endurance charges, so with zero flasks it has 64% physical damage reduction. With granite it goes up to 84% so almost capped. Then my aegis has 3500 elemental shield. I basically never die unless I just stop paying attention. This build is tanky af and has insane damage to boot. If you have 50-70 ex to spend that's how you get to that point. I spent about 20 ex originally but the dps was still nuts, with only 7 endurance charges instead. It's not a zoomy build, you will be walking in circles a lot of the time waiting for charges to build, but it's fun AF.
@@shakemillk9606 uhhh it really depends on if you are mapping or bossing. I don’t know the names but for the major I took the one to the far left so I don’t get stunned as often, and then for minor I took the one that has immune to burning ground and movement speed on burning ground just for faster movement on those maps. You’re so tanka it really doesn’t matter though tbh. I actually switched and made several new characters so I am way far gone from this build now lol.
@@xedden2 i finally crafted the staff but did most content without it. I'd say around 20ex with a 6l searing touch, depends on how much the +1 extra charge helm/boot/ring is going for or if you're planning to buy vs craft them. You can get around 7-8m ignite dps with searing touch.
Hey Badger! What are your thoughts on using an Aberath's Hooves boots to level? I just leveled an elementalist using some and it was some of the smoothest leveling I've ever had!
@This is Badger... why do you go Blood magic? just for the 20% life? Also fair warning... this build is rough without the Volls- even going Redblade banner and Romiras... you just have too much downtime on endurance charges which is one of the main forms of defense. Its totally fun- but the market manipulators kind of screwed this.
"Voll's Devotion is only about 10 chaos so it's very cheap as well"

"Voll's devotion is only about 10 chaos"
Hah. Hahahahahahahah. Look what you've done.
dear lord
These guides are so thorough and enjoyable, thanks Badger! Also you have the best youtube intro. It's adorable.
I think it was last league that I tried your discharge build? This one is so much better. Well done. Update: With this build I was able to do Maven, A8 Sirus, full simulacrum, Uber Elder, Hall of GM...literally everything. The two guides that took you from cheap to expensive were truly helpful. This is hands down the best build I have ever had so thank you again.
Glad I'm not the only one tired of seeing everyone on YT making the same Meta build guide
First of all thumbs up for the guide + sub :) Imho though you could have been clearer on the lack of defences of this build. If it helps anyone (newer) here is my experience with the build so far.
Pro:
- Fun xplosion booms, if you like that sort of thing.
- Really excellent boss dmg potential, watch bosses literally melt early on (on the appropriate tier depending on gear)
- Elemantal Ailment avoidance thanks to golems is always good
- Superb boss performance
Neutral:
- Hit seems to kill porcupines, Cremator doesn't work - maybe I do not understand Cremator, I am new to ignite.
- Budget gear got expensive quick :)
- Getting the clusters will be expensive if you buy them (recommend scorched spam - it is not hard to hit Blowback + Burning Bright)
- Crafting the weapon is hit or miss mostly thanks to Awakener Rng
- You definitely want a "cannot be silenced" on a jewel somewhere - running into packs unable to do anything is really, really bad
- Do not expect to 1-shot Maven as in the video until you have all the pieces together, including good crafted items as shown
- If your damage is high enough really consider quality of life changes to 1-2 of your jewels
- The cooldown based playstyle might not be for everyone in regards to maps
Con:
- Literally NO defences apart from life pool and stealth and phasing, if you count that. This build is kill or be killed when it comes to packs. Attacks from bosses are easier to avoid though.
- You will die a lot. Though I might just suck: When Badger says this is a softcore build he really means expect to die multiple times a map even though you will 1 shot pretty much all packs. The problem is if any hits do get through to you, which happens a lot with the right density, you die instantly.
- The endgame build/gameplay feels really incomplete until you get all the pieces to fall in line. The progression feels like all or nothing at times, especially once you want to use Farrul's.
- Do not attempt to play with Farrul's unless you have Aspect of the Cat on your gloves / boots (no room on helm?). This is understated in the guide. With the standard cooldown gaining the charges will make you feel useless in a fast paced game like this. Stick with the budget version until you have your gloves set / boots set with less duration.
My personal verdict: Mapping with such few defences really feels subpar as I don't personally enjoy dying so many times to random things. Also, if you do not have charges up in certain situations expect to die - it takes a while to get used to the playstyle. Getting to 95+ in maps will be a pain.
The bossing however, is why I started this build in the first place - and though my gear is very far from optimal I am already seeing the fruits of (Badger's) labor. Once everything comes together this build excels in that area and watching bosses tick down like nothing is really fun. I just wish the way to the high end would be more enjoyable, I guess. Although watching a screen go boom is fun in itself. If you do not buy all the gear pre-made this will definitely turn into a labor of love (or hate depending on how much you enjoy meta-crafting). For me this is a neutral point.
The squishiest build I have done UElder with so far was a Shock Nova Inqui - this might just be up there in terms of deaths.
In Summary: I would push this only as a bosser, with a completely seperate mapper char and if I am willing to commit to the invest. Stay clear if you do not like dying or expect to get results as in the video on 5 ex :)
Great summary, Timmers. I tried the build myself on "budget" but probably wont continue to play it. While the DPS in the PoB is looking great the build is really really squishy and you will die *a lot*. And I cant see the build able to run Endgame without heavy investment into at least Farruls Fur/6L Searing/Fire pen Helmet and Cluster Jewels.
Thanks for your great feed back Timmers, i feel the same what could we do to increase defense ? and make it go further thx
I agree about dying a lot and constantly getting 1 shot.
Just a tip for you who are going to play this, consider swapping a damage support for second wind/anonalous second wind while mapping, and the discharge cooldown won’t feel shit at all
Also use the Red Nightmare jewel instead in the marauder area to replace Thread of Hope. It is much more tanky and the clearing is faster since you will be at max endurance charges almost all the time.
@@taesaes701 do u think that will be really more tanky ? Have u got other tips to make it tankier ? Thx taesaes
@@benzoo4588 Glancing blows,Basalt Flask,6000+ ehp,Steel Skin Cwdt, rumi's and hardened scars with enduring hybrid flask of warding.You will feel tanky enough
I would add death's door as well gor bleed immunity but crafted boots are better for the price.Also factor divine flesh if you have the currency to stack chaos res in your gear.
@@taesaes701 hello. Can i use rednigthmare instead primordial might ? And keep thread of hope into marauder Area ? Thx
Been using Discharge Ignite Chieftain and was thinking of rolling one of these. I figured the ceiling was much higher given how powerful her rework was.
Finally decided to give self-cast a go after... I don't know how many Fakener/trigger builds I've played, using your guide. This build slaps, hard. Sitting at 10.5m/4.5m realistic dps, with nothing but max charges and shock from focus. I don't think 6-7ex has carried me this hard in a while.
Thanks for all the detail put into the presentation of this guide.
loved the build. As u said i was just bored to see any other bladeblast or bladevortex or any archmage build so thank you for this beautiful discharge build.
Hi Badger, I made a lot of videos about this build during Heist, back then I was the only Trickster in a sea of Chieftain, and the only one playing with a farrul fur for a long time (on poe.ninja), before the Elementalist rework. Using Stormfire and Hrimburn to get ignite on power and frenzy charges. I did hit 15m iDPS back then.
I planed to play and do videos about the elementalist version for Rituals, but when I saw you were playing it, being a huge fan of you, I decided to wait until you let your video out first. You explain stuff better than me, and editing/timing is way better than me. Really glad I waited, your video is 100% chance better than what I would have done.
If you allow me, I would like to do a few videos about concepts, theorycrafting you didnt talk about, and a lot of showcases of the build (and also my version is quite different than yours, playing MoM and Replica Emberwake for a stupid 40m+ DPS).
I'm happy you covered the OPness of this build, I was a bit disappointed in Heist that my build was shadowed by Carrion/Aurastackers when it was already "OP" (for softcore). Elementalist makes it simply broken.
Hope you allow me to do some videos about it.
And i'm insanely jealous of your staff btw. Sell it to meeeee.
Followed Badger's guide early in the league but didn't have the currency to match, I went with a Replica Ambu's Charge and a Eye of innocence Amulet to generate charges. Not as beefy and monster DPS but it's viable as hell to begin with. Currently running t16's and doing fine at 14 M DPS. Thanks again Badger!
Did you only eye of innocence? Did you try and go for self ignite as well?
@@BNCole83 Went without the self ignite.
@@shao5141 nice. I just hit lvl 68 and geared up with eye + ambus and it works amazing. Hell no I'm not paying any scalpers for volls D!!
@@BNCole83 Yes it's working great and WOC / OOS to get charges is pretty simple too.
Yeah this build is pretty nutty. I think I'll pick up an astral projector so I don't have to wade into packs to drop discharge
Update: Almost finished with the campaign, been using discharge since I got the amulet at 36. A couple things I found during the process:
1) Astral projector is amazing. You lose the stats of your ring slot but it feels really great and is so much safer.
2)A low budget option while leveling for power charge generation is the storm prison wand. Once you have the voll's devotion, the wand plus the amulet can carry discharge just about exclusively, with the need for only a seldom enduring cry / mob kill for charges.
3) If the 2 second cooldown on discharge feels clunky don't use the jewel that gives you lower cooldown. Just throw in a second wind instead of a damage support for clearing and it clears like a dream. The cooldown reduction plus extra charge basically means you can use it whenever you see monsters. That paired with the astral projector I feel like I'm blasting 10 stack flame blasts instantly wherever I want.
4) Anomalous discharge is a nice option to make it cast significantly faster if you don't mind the slightly lower damage.
5) Once you get your stone golem Blood Rage is great for passively keeping up frenzy charges before you get the fur
Great guide man, probably my fav build so far, damage is amazing and gameplay is so entertaining
Great guide 👍
Tip my hat to you. Finally a great build guide from a great POE youtuber that actually explain how you got to endgame and which gems you used to get there, not just here's the build and gear and you figure it out I'm still a newbie at the game only can play one league a year and I missed about three years of league.
So once again thanks for I build I will try in ritual league.
Hope if you got time in the future to make an extensive detailed video on the state of crafting there's a lot I missed in 3 years lolol
Thanks
i like the build very much but i have a few questions...
1. does "fan the flames" and ignite prolif add up or the bigger radius of each wins (wich would be ignite prolif)?
2. how bad/good would it be to use endurance cry for endu charge and badge of brotherhood for more frenzy charges?
i'm thinking about your endgame Rod, just as a wand/scepter and Redblade Banner (together with "call to arms" and war cry cooldown), with more global cooldown aspect rota would also be faster
3. what about arcanist brand - wave of conviction - combustion setup (4th link Cwdt)?
4. what about storm brand - awk hextouch - flammability - ele weakness setup?
5. would using the cluster jewel note "Corrosive Elements" be enough reason to spend 2 points on "mastermind of Discord"? if yes, we could switch ignite prolif with combustion and can safe sockets from wave of conviction setup.
with my idea you would get a total of 25 charges without corruptions (9 endu: 3normal, 3tree, 3gear, 8 power: 3normal, 3tree, 2gear, 8 frenzy: badge of brotherhood) and a total of -120% enemie fire resist (-35%exposure, -45% flammability, -40% ele weakness)(even more -fire resist when still using EE).
i dont have enough currency to test this, i just would like to know if these are some good ideas or complete garbage.
For the budget build, I reworked the storm brand and wave of conviction links to a single 4-link with hextouch and flammability. Storm brand doesn't crit so much that it needs controlled destruction. I used the extra 4-link for CWDT - Immortal Call - Inc Duration + Malevolence. Much tankier.
If you're in between budget and end game version, using the phantasmal version of discharge with 20% quality, gives you 40% extra damage when discharge uses the 3 different charges.
I'm trying this out now (new-ish player, first league). You can get the build rolling at level 28 when you can equip Discharge, by finding/buying a Storm Prison Carved Wand (+1 max power charges and 33% chance of power charge on kill) which I'm using with Power Siphon (20% chance to gain a power charge when projectile hits a rare or unique enemy). I just hit level 28, put Discharge in a 4L chest (I can get max 4 charges now), and it's working really well so far! Thanks for the guide.
And once I reach level 32 and can get a Voll's Devotion it should be even better.
Edit: Add in Enduring Cry at level 10 for Endurance Charges around powerful enemies.
Some notes, Fan the flames is useless if you have ignite prolif socketed. In the staff video, you recommend rem/add lightning for the +2, but cold has better chance of hitting as there are less cold mods to hit. Also, I wouldn't tick shock on sirus, it's a very low chance of happening since crit chance is very low and no real shock chance elsewhere.
This guide is absolutely massive, thanks for your hard work
Boots is one of the last things I need, helmet missing the ignite faster, have double resist and everything else. And my Eventuality Rod is missing one of the charges but with your boots i'd break 65m, currently at 55m. I picked up on your PoB several videos ago and built it last week without the guide and knew where you were going with it. Staff I think is 2 million total damage per ignite behind yours, but its close. It's been a blast...literally. No boss really survives a maxed out single discharge. Really well done with the build. There is no content I could not do. Worst thing about the build is if you're tryin to max out your clear speed, you are gated by the charge reset, but it has a flow to it thats really nice, and wave of conviction kills most (non juiced things) without a thought on T16+ content if you need a filler for smaller enemies. Also see you have Awakened swift affliction which could help with the charge reset that I didn't think of. Again well done.
Voll's already selling for exalts. Rip budget gear.
XD
HEADS UP: My noise gate played up a bit in the recording here, so a few words cut out now and then - hope its bearable! Let me know if you enjoy the build!
EDIT 1: I Appear to have screwed up the colour bar, use the youtube timestamps to jump correctly!
EDIT 2: LEL soz about the prices of Voll's devotion, oops
Noooo it kinda went up to an ex already :(
Guess some guys bought those few available and offer them for an ex or more now, how lame.
I REFUSE TO BUY IT FROM THEM.
Fairly expected with a price hike given how rare voll's actually is, doesn't require much popularity for it to spike ^^
There's always replica ambu's charge with eye of innocence, or redblade banner and enduring cry.
You can also add blackflame ring plus wither totems
Ist there any way Tor Run this build without ist?
@@cindermoth3421 Good alternatives, thanks for the tip!
Great guide, thanks! Only thing I wish a little more time was put in was the links and stuff for the leveling section. You mention some skills, like Divine Ire for single target, but I have no idea what those links should be
Kripparian Build comes back:D
an alternate to the endurance charge generation is Eye of Innocence and Replica Ambu's, since Voll's is super expensive now
This build reminds me of the Diablo3 witch doctor jade-charvester .
I've been playing a similar build, but focused on end charges via enduring cry and Redblade banner. I use charged mines + arc mines for generating power & frenzy vs bosses. If people can't find the uniques mentioned in the video they can try this method. Also using red dream + green/blue dream for charge on kill during clear.
Hey Badger, I don't know if you have tried this, but you can use a storm prison wand while you are trying to get a searing touch lathi. It also is a big help until you can use the romiras feast. It gives power charges on kill at 25% I believe. I just wanted to throw that out there to see what you think.
this build is awesome! im not at full endurance charges yet but im doing 41m sirius dps
This looks great! I tried an Elementalist version and the DPS didn't feel better despite the PoB DPS looking WAY higher, but after watching this, I'm going to try again because the single target DPS looks way better. I actually recorded a Realm Ender/conversion version of the Chieftan build and I'm wondering if I should release it after seeing this
The less duration/swift affliction trick in the gloves to speed up the Aspect is SO smart. Man, I wish I'd thought of that sooner, but I crafted it on my belt lol
How did this fare in the Nerf? Any chance on an updated 3.14 guide or is everythign still pretty much the same? Thanks Badger!
Awesome build and I'm currently bringing it together as my second build of the league. The leveling tree works great with a Poet's Pen Power Siphon + Flame Wall set up a la the flameslinger build. It's been a fun way to level up and I'm I'll be keeping an eye on that Voll's devotion price as I get closer to swapping over to the discharge set up hehe
sorry Badger and PoE comunity, is this build nerf after last patch? PoB used to said 60M and now 20M o.0
I think it's just a change in calculation
You may be right but which is correct, if it's the new pob then the build is ok but nothing special, would like to know ....
I love your build guides, going to give this a shot.
can you post the updated build for this for 3.17?
i love some of your builds, i actually did plan to play this back when i was saving some currency for it, but now ty for your video prices have gone crazy xD
Thanks Badger for all your hard work, you have been a reliable source of information for me since the start.
Now, let's see.... ;)
Badger, this is hands fucking down my favorite build I've ever played. Beating out the old Poet's VD for me.
Do you have a Discord channel or something man? There is so much you can do with the end game build and I'd love to be able to talk to others about it. YT comments are trash (the format, these actual comments are good). You really should put this on the forums too. The Ele Discharge builds on there are trash, and this would likely overtake DI Ignite in terms of fun.
Yo! Check the description of the vid, should have a link to the discord :)
in the leveling section when you talk about act 3, where do we link Armageddon brand and the other abilities?
This build looks really fun, but I've had a so much trouble with self-cast builds in rituals.
Yeah this build laughs at rituals, its very rare I die to any of them. I'm talking you need alot of juice for me to die to a ritual. Super high attack speed, multple damage mods, delirium added onto it, etc. Or maybe i'm trying to traverse a map and get unlucky with the ignite avoidance and get caught, but 99.9% of the time, zero issues because the self cast is just pop and enjoy. And it's rare a ritual lasts more then....10-30 seconds depending. Doing double guardian maps no issues, uber fights no issues, etc.
Ignite discharge uses ignite proliferation meaning the corpses will spread the ignite for a while after death. With the high damage ignites this makes rituals extremely easy. Just get a cinderswallow and you won't ever die under normal conditions
1 week and "this feels bad man". 23m Sirius DPS on PoB and all bosses in end-game 1-shot you.
OH! This is the guy who does that podcast I liked, you make very good videos man thanks :)
And i just started my Penance brand char.. oh well now i know which one's up after that! Very interested in this one, Discharge is my all time favourite skill ingame. Ty man!
While leveling I used Doedre's Elixir and Frenzy to get charges because you can't use the ring until level 60. It was clunky but let me start using Discharge right away. Enduring cry for bosses. Equip Voll's Devotion right away. Very fast leveling. Dies easy if you get stunned before your discharge goes off. I used two storm prison wands to get more power charges until I could equip the fire staff.
After you added guide i bought this amulet for 10c now ppls want 2-4ex for it ^^ i guess i was lucky and now i have a BLAST with this build! thanks man.
Why are you not using ice golem in the endgame build?
You got 2 slots left in the chestpiece when it's 6 socket. 1 for ice golem and 1 for portal?
Ice golem instead of one of the other four? Which one and why? Personally I'm glad for the remaining sockets bc it let me work in cwdt/IC which helps a ton with survivability. Also saves me the hassle/cost of the second 6L
Hey badger! Would you still recommmend this for 3.15 after all the nerfs?
Is there a reason why the pob shows me roughly 20million damage... before its was 60+ Million Damage
Have the same question, following the POB Update 40 mill dps gone
POE market economy 101. Always look for budget build and be the earliest to buy all all the essential items
Great video Badge, going to roll this as my 2cnd character.
This looks really fun! Is it still up to snuff in 3.14?
That opening cracked me up!
Hi there Badger,first time poster long time stalker :D.will this build be good in 3.15?
Why are we taking Elemental Equilibrium during leveling? How do we apply it? Also you say we use Div Ire for single target and Armageddon Brand for clear, what support gems do we link them with? Do they go to the same 6link chest for double 5l setup?
same questions...
Hello, I have a question! where is the link of the build? I swear I went there once and now it's gone! it's a bit easyer to follow the build there! thanks.
Awesome build, definitely gona give a try latter this league
In POB it shows 1,7 million dps budget version insted of 11 mill. Whats wrong?
1:37 thank you for that personal attack Badger :(
Why not have a pair of abberath's hooves for map clearing? They give "true" ignite prolif, in that it behaves like poison prolif where it spreads infinitely.
liked the build so i subbed as suggested, wil give it a go on a medium budget
I think increased duration on aspect of the cat was a trick but not sure.
Thanks for the guide badger, could finally unload all these Voll's :D
Great build guide!
No crafting guide on helm gloves boots I spend around 80ex and so far on my helm I got :1- with plus one frenzy 2- with nearby enemy's-12%resistance
Boots ingnite faster 10% and +1 endurance
Gloves: aspect of the cat and some fire dmg over time
Those 3 items are really hard to craft no guide so far so I think on helm u need to get first nearby enemy's-12% resistance and ignite dmg faster 15% block suffix add +1 to frenzy it's hard to also get 100 life that would be around 50+ ex depends on luck(only one item) I haven't get too much into boots and gloves I imagine 80 more ex for both to don t say about staff that I imagine is around 40ex as well(to craft) a total of about 250ex more less as I sayd depends on luck
*I will be back with a video review
question tho, why did you go for blood magic ? it seems such a travel just so you can have 20% life and one free aura
I was checking the comments to have the answer to this question. Let me know if you find it.
@This is Badger i hope he will reply any day
@@nielsb5515 My presumption was so you dont spec into mana and mana regen nodes to keep this going
could someone explaine my why we should take bloodmagick ?
Before this video Voll's were 10 C now the cheapest is 3+ ex lmao stonks
Hey Badger, thanks for the build im really enjoying it. Do you think 2 clusters are still wroth it after the nerfs in 3.15?
what class are you using for this discharge? sorry im, newbie for this game. but this is interesting . please do reply my comment
Great vid Badger!
Thx for the guide! Trying to play it in 3.15 and i have a question on Elemental equilibrium mechanic - if all your hits always ignite, does it mean that when you place a storm brand (which suppose to shock enemies and make them -50% fire res due to this keystone) also ignites the targets and starts dealing fire damage, making them +25% fire res? Would really appreciate if someone could help me out, because sometimes i can spend a solid 5-7 mins killing a t-14 boss with a 1.8 million effective ignite dps, according to my PoB. This makes me feel like i am doing something wrong :)
Did you figure anything out? I'm also in the same position.
@@AlexK-iq2ej I did. And the solution is to play another build) simply because you cannot scale this build anymore with the current state of post-nerf harvest crafting :( there is actually no consistent way to craft those double influence items with +charges without insane amount of luck and currency. And i am not even talking about that crazy staff. This is literally impossible to craft it anymore :( It's sad, but true, because the build is very interesting and fun to play.
@@AlexK-iq2ej and what about the Ele.equilibrium - you just have to follow an exact strict button order - storm brand - wave of conviction - flasks - then Discharge. And its very important to have all 3 charges type before discharging. Without endurance charges up there is simply no damage output
Hi grait build!
i have a similer bild bat i startat a bit diferent buget version. i used for power charge a Wand:"Storm Prison" with a boot: "Inya's Epiphany" (garent a chans gain max power charg on a single crit or kill) For Frenzy Blood Rage, For Endurance Charge the "Redblade Banner" shild with "Voll' Devotion" and 2 Kaom's Way" rings.
Now i have the Fural chast and a staf "Realm Ender Iron Staff".
Aktueli i use the staff in waponslot 2. In weaponslot 1 i use "Razor of the Seventh Sun" (recower 1%life if i ignite an enemi) (100% increased burning Damage if you ignite recently) i dont know ot the increased burnin apleis to discharg if i wepanswap to cast discsharg and back. And i use the "Redblade Banner" shild tu use shilcharg an Enduring cray. I swich with a makro on me mick. Mackro swap weapon, aktiwate discharg, swap back :) so im traweling fest, geting fortifay, use Enduring cray for gain fast regen or to gain instant Endurance charge. porpus: i planing to gat "Badge of the Brotherhood Turquoise Amulet" so i wil lose the gain Endurence if i lose Power Charge. Bat with use the 1 and 2 Weapon slot and using Endurin cray problem is solwed and i wil have 23 or if gat the same staf if u then 25 charges. Overkill :)
How come on the 2 large cluster jewels they have disorienting display and widespread destruction but you don't put a skill point in either of them?
This is amazing man! Keep it up
not sure if I'm missing something obvious, but is there some trick to avoiding stuns on the budget version? Especially in rituals, pretty frequently I'm getting stunned as I cast discharge so the cast is interrupted but I have to wait for the next cooldown
maybe try the stun pantheon?
@@dayman0harry I do! I'm sure it's helping, but still, if the first stun happens while I'm casting discharge, I'm stuck waiting for the cooldown :/ I'll try spending 3 points on unwavering stance, see if losing evasion hurts at all
@@camrow Yea give unwavering a go, I just wanted to highlight the pantheon in case you werent running it.
To be honest I have found that pantheon to be unreliable and I have been clearly double stunned when using it a few times.
Monster build, 4 breach lords melts for 1 sec, and my ignite half of pob, best build this league gg!
Any i missing something. The budget PoB says under 2m dps, not 10m like in the video. Do i need to checkmark something?
Have the same issue here
The PoB in the video shows total damage for full duration of ignite, it seems that now PoB only shows the damge per second of ignite, so basically the build is the same
Something that would have been nice is what level should we switch over from fireball to discharge. I'm in Act 4 and my current only source for charges is the Doedre flasks and Shouts.
How would you make the staff now that harvest was nerfed
You don't. Just try to find a staff on trade with some of the important mods and see if its a damage increase in pob go ahead and buy it.
Hi badger! will there be any updates for 3.19??
Hey Badger. I do not know if you will see this. I have been trying to follow your guide and craft my staff. I am so frustrated/ have wasted so many exalts trying to do so. I cannot do what your videos shows me to do. Where do i go for more help?
Have you thought about going shock on the Ascendancy and using the Blackflame ring together with Wither totems? Might improve your damage even further...
nice build guide but in the endgame version wich gems i have to put into the armour xD? you only have 4 4 links and 1 6 links cast on death with portal or sth else ?
whats the pros and cons for chieftains vs elemantalist for discharge ? thanks in advance :)
since we dont really want crits (on budget at least), is it worth it to take Resolute Technique?
You want crits to proc Elemental Overload. Keep your crit chance close to 8% for more consistency when using Romira's Banquet.
What Pantheon nodes do we pick? Also really liking the build but besides huge hp what hard defences does it have, i dont see any immortal call/molten shell or similar hard defences.
So, would the new cruelty support be really good for this?
Hi Badger! Fun build, looks really cool. One question I have though - how tanky is this build really? The resist and phys reduction look nice, the life pool looks okayish. How often do u get oneshot? Do you feel the missing Chaos resist? When u talk about "can do all the bosses in the game" you mean the new Maven Arena fights? I could imagine the 4 Breachlords could be really hard... Would love your reply on that. Thanks and keep it up!
Rolling a variant of this. The build is reasonably tanky by itself. Can easily be further increased by adding anima stone and 3 primordial eminences for a ton of bufs from golems, 23 phys reduction from chaos golem for instance. The golems will also absorb a lot of damage for you as additional targets which is more helpful than you'd think. Though it does come at the price of some damage.
The inherent benefit of building discharge ignite is that you only need to tag an enemy with an ignite after which you can focus on dodging, which is a very safe playstyle.
You could also go leapslam fortify for even more defenses.
Since the aoe is so big, coupled with ignite proliferation, you don't need to get close either to enemies.
It's overall a very safe playstyle that can be very tanky with the right gear. If you want even tankier you can go chieftain. Though damage is kinda capped at 2 mil dps.
My build variant of his (EXTREMELY similiar just a couple minor differences) has 9 endurance charges, so with zero flasks it has 64% physical damage reduction. With granite it goes up to 84% so almost capped. Then my aegis has 3500 elemental shield. I basically never die unless I just stop paying attention. This build is tanky af and has insane damage to boot. If you have 50-70 ex to spend that's how you get to that point. I spent about 20 ex originally but the dps was still nuts, with only 7 endurance charges instead. It's not a zoomy build, you will be walking in circles a lot of the time waiting for charges to build, but it's fun AF.
@@taesaes701 what's ur patheon?Could u help me with that?Cant decide myself
@@shakemillk9606 uhhh it really depends on if you are mapping or bossing. I don’t know the names but for the major I took the one to the far left so I don’t get stunned as often, and then for minor I took the one that has immune to burning ground and movement speed on burning ground just for faster movement on those maps. You’re so tanka it really doesn’t matter though tbh. I actually switched and made several new characters so I am way far gone from this build now lol.
@@taesaes701 thanks a lot :)
Isn't Fan the Flames useless if you are already using ignite proliferation support link to Discharge?
Aye it's useless plus the radius is smaller than ignite prolife
any chance to update the pob with the new tree? specificaly would you take vitality extractor node?
With the 3.16 changes, how do you feel about the build? EE EO changed and all
i dont get how elemental equilibrium is supposed to work in this build, wont you do fire hits with wave of conviction / discharge?
downed A9 Sirus first time with this build, good stuff :) that staff is like 50ex tho lol using a searing touch for now
How much investment do you think to farm shaper/elder with this build?
@@xedden2 i finally crafted the staff but did most content without it. I'd say around 20ex with a 6l searing touch, depends on how much the +1 extra charge helm/boot/ring is going for or if you're planning to buy vs craft them. You can get around 7-8m ignite dps with searing touch.
@@SB-fi1fv thanks
Hey Badger! What are your thoughts on using an Aberath's Hooves boots to level? I just leveled an elementalist using some and it was some of the smoothest leveling I've ever had!
@This is Badger... why do you go Blood magic? just for the 20% life?
Also fair warning... this build is rough without the Volls- even going Redblade banner and Romiras... you just have too much downtime on endurance charges which is one of the main forms of defense.
Its totally fun- but the market manipulators kind of screwed this.
Why do you use blood magic nodes? Is there something im missing here?
