    Today's Pear fact: Pears are one of the oldest recorded fruits, dating back to ~1000B.C.E. Due to its long history, it is often speculated that a Pear could have been the forbidden fruit which Adam and Eve ate from within Abrahamic Religions. Very cool and such a fact would garner the Pear a high ranking in any fruit tier list :)

    • @Kydrou
      @Kydrou ปีที่แล้ว +4

      Nah, that would give it the lowest, as it's the fruit that cursed humanity to have sex to multiply, instead of just pleasure. Also forced women to have periods. Ask any girl if she'd sac pears for never again having a period, and say "never" or even "maybe". I'll take a "why".
      I'll wait.
      Absolute L take. Absolute L knowledge. Absolute L descition. Absolute Mid Fruit. + Ratio.

    Hey Strim, considering that the pact dice from Acolyte is a feat you can take every 6 levels like monk, what class would you take a splash of Acolyte, to have basically full eldritch blast progression on to support another playstyle? Like taking 2 levels for EB and chain, on a full caster, so that you always have a backup of consistent and free damage. I don't know if it's completely viable, but I think at least for quick racial lives I would think about doing it for sake of ease possible.

    With all the focus in Necromancy, I am almost considering a splash of Wizard for Pale Master. Though I wonder if the Demon Form will overide the Pale Shroud or be allowed to have both active. I'm thinking Wraith Form, despite the Vampire granting +2 Cha, but since EB isn't a melee attack (unless the Demon Forms one is and works with shrouds), you aren't going to get getting any of that Vampiric Effect. Though the constant Feather Fall and 10%-20% incorpereal from Wraith could be useful.

    Great video as always!! Will probably try it out when i get to a Warlock life.
    Does anyone knows the class and build of the character with the gleaming staff during the Lost in the Swamp run featured in the video? It looks super cool.

    Hii Strim.
    Thnx for the great content :)
    Quick question. Do you think the t5 bombadier enhancement 'weakening mixture: fire' would proc from the fire pact eldritch blast from Acolyte of the Skin? so i could strip the fire resist/immunity automatically on eldritch blast.
    Something like a 5alch/15Acolyte of Skin.

    • @Strimtom
      @Strimtom  ปีที่แล้ว

      I replied to your comment on my other video, but same rule should apply. EB isn't a typed spell, so it doesn't count as a fire spell or acid spell or anything else, so it shouldn't work with that enhancement.

    I noticed that at 19:50 you refer to an end game gearset and direct us to the build link below. But that link doesn't have any gear sets in that forum post. I see the ES build and the melee lock build, but is there another link? I am homebrewing a gear kit right now and would love your input if you've already put one together.

  • @Sielumies
    @Sielumies ปีที่แล้ว +3

    I ended up using other trees than the acolyte as cone blasting is just better. Gazes felt very annoying because I got often target facing errors unlike with enlightened bursts. Also I wish gaze range would be bit further. Otherwise it is decent flavor tree and maybe potential with melee build

    • @Sielumies
      @Sielumies ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I didnt pay attention to the early damage over regular pacts. No wonder I was confused why I cleared early levels faster with damage. Acolyte do have great potential for pastlife runs

    Was checking out this build and trying to make it on DDO. Unfortunately, it doesn't let me take Feather Fall at level 1, so I took Fear instead for now. Also am a 32 point build, so had some to spare and put it onto Constitution just so I can be a little bit healthier during early game.
    Would you suggest otherwise? And do you know anything about the unavailability of Feather Fall?

    If one wanted to make a dungeon competent(Ish?) tank out of a warlock, able to hold hate and not die quickly at least in elite difficulty dungeons (or low reapers), would that be more viable to do with enlightened spirit or acolyte of the skin?

      Enlightened spirit is tanky, has increased threat, and is better for this purpose.

    I'm going to give this a try next life. One thing that I've noticed is the other top DDO streamer, you know who he is I won't mention his name, is exactly Opposite in his views on AoTS. I mean it is light and day, he absolutely hates it. So I am going to play through to cap and raids, and make my own opinion, but it looks fun!

      Voodu plays a tank warlock for the most part, focusing on spells and not much on blasting. It is very obvious why a blasting heavy and less tanky warlock wouldn't be his cup of tea! Different play style for sure.

      Sorry for the bother you, but I can't seem to find whatever link you mentioned for a different warlock build to reference for gear. I was mostly trying to see whether you were using robes, light armor, or medium armor for the build. As a relatively new player recommendations of specific items to farm for would be helpful, but mostly I am trying to just trying to figure out which actual type I am supposed to use as I am not entirely sure if I either am missing a proficiency/ability somewhere or if not being proficient is less of an issue than I imagine it is.
      Thanks in advance!

    Strange that 5-6 months after release that almost no one is playing AoTC. Maybe it turned out EXACTLY as bad as was predicted. Unfortunately the Dev's chose to ignore their player base, and just forced this hot-garbage out the door.

    • @Strimtom
      @Strimtom  6 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Depends on the people you see, but I see a fairly regular amount of people running acolyte, just usually as multiclasses for getting different past lives.
      It is also difficult to exactly tell population because you will only see a small part of the player base at any given time, and with archetypes we have 21 classes to play, so getting accurate accounting is hard. Even ddoaudit.com doesn't separate based on archetype, but if they did it would be a bit more clear.
