I promise the next build won't use monolith or nebula! 😭 0:00 intro 0:05 vs Stone Warden (apoc) 0:59 vs Tal'Ratha (apoc) 1:35 vs Nightweaver (apoc) 2:31 vs Magister Dullain (apoc) 3:36 vs Huntress 4:06 Build
great version of the build. love it. monolith is a shoe in for a support weapon and so is nebula - tough to use anything else unless you hate DPS. I had good results with the new fire carpet mod as well to get a burn tick going for those acid resistant ones
Yea unfortunately monolith and nebula just beat out all the other support stuff. Heatwave is another good choice like you mentioned. I actually forgot about it. I like ring of spears tho on melee builds. The buff to it mad eit real good
gameplay is off the charts. that nightweaver kill a thing of beauty. do you think ritualist could work as prime w miasma and ahane since bosses die so fast you don’t need the second skill charge lol have you tested ?
Yeah baby! I just worked out a pretty similar build the other day. One of the first times I found a good use for the shock device. This one is lots of fun!
They both increase damage by 10%. Crystal staff does do physical damage as well, so I went with departed since it will benefit the physical portion and shock portion
@@BoltJamison yes without the Burden though. Reason I suggested it is because you said the build is shock focused. But yea. All damage is best when damage of weapon is split between physical and elemental.
Yo Bolt! Can you check out the Transpose+Corrupted cube gun combo? Gives any long gun an infinite magazine as long as the reserves are high and the mag isnt small!
@Liquidswordz56 that would make the staff more versatile and safer to play for sure. All depends on what you need the weapon for. But if it's raw damage, then wrathbringer beats it. Crystal has many more uses tho. Crystal is my fav melee weapon
I'm finding Profane Heart very hard to replace, alongwith siphoner. Been using shielded strike tank build, this one looks like its needs more skill than I may have so worth a spin.
Hot, first time I see the pointy hat drip like that, shame for the visual clutter^^ Sometimes I think having more utility mods not be locked in ads aiming would give more variety, especially for builds that don't shoot much btw how can you tell which bosses/enemies are weak to which element?
Visual clutter is an understatement on this build lol. And I agree, wish there were more utility mods. I have a chart with all of the resistances. I can link it on my discord ord if you are on it. If not, simply test each element on a boss. If you deal more damage, they are weak. If you deal less, they are resistant and if there is no change, then they are neutral to it.
4:53 We gotta work on that pronunciation big boy. She is called Kay-u-la and not Quail-a. All jokes aside I love the crystal staff It's the most fun melee weapon to use
That means you are bad at stamina management. Stop spam rolling, sprinting for no reason and understand spacing and get better at neutral dodges. Incase I didn't make it obvious, this applies to when you are in combat. You'll know when your stamina management is good when you keep it above 25% Or to paint a better picture You should always be able to roll through every attack in a boss fight or engagement. If you are ever out of stamina, and can't roll or sprint when you need to. It means you arent walking and spacing yourself enough.

haha, just as i wanted to write: "monolith and nebula again".
@szemyah 😂 they are just too good but I'm actually getting bored of them tbh
Oh hell yeah, I've been wanting a new melee build. The man keeps on delivering!
🙏💙
This is a reasonable amount of particle effects to have on screen at once
Just a regular Tuesday at Ward 13
Sorry I didn't hear you through the noise I saw.
@@Esch88 😂
😅
Oh you made it the crystal staff build! It's beautiful, you're awesome Bolt ❤❤❤ thank you!
It became an instant fav of mine. Such a cool weapon! 💙💙💙
Great build Bolt looks awesome, I will definitely give it a go. Thanks.
Hell yea dude! Hope you enjoy it like I did

@ac372 I have not tested but I'm sure it will be crazy too, with deathwish. The deathwish buff giving 50% is insane lol
Yeah baby! I just worked out a pretty similar build the other day. One of the first times I found a good use for the shock device. This one is lots of fun!
Noice! Yea i wanted to use some different off meta stuff (minus monolith and nebula of course lol) and it worked out surprisingly well!
Love the drip and keep the hard work up! 😃
Aww yea! I'm digging this drip too. Thanks so much!
mister toaster whens the next time i can fill you with bread and cover you with hot butter 🥵
10:05 Say the line, Bolt! 🤣
😂
Fucking insane. God tier melee skills and this build is completely bonkers. Your best R2 video yet. 🤩
GOAT comment from the melee GOAT himself!
15:52 if build is shock focused I’d ditch the Burden the Departed for the Alumni ring.
They both increase damage by 10%. Crystal staff does do physical damage as well, so I went with departed since it will benefit the physical portion and shock portion

Oh snap that's a cool interaction! Thanks for the info. I will def mess around with it!
Still waiting for a MOD Swapper Build :D but this seems cool, I'm going to try it !
Next build will be mod swapper-ish!
Great build! Would you consider this the strongest melee build out?
Thanks! This build is quite strong and versatile but I think wrathbringer may still be the strongest melee weapon in the game.
@BoltJamison even if it's stronger, would the builds be better considering the crystal staff has ranger attacks on it?
@Liquidswordz56 that would make the staff more versatile and safer to play for sure.
All depends on what you need the weapon for. But if it's raw damage, then wrathbringer beats it. Crystal has many more uses tho. Crystal is my fav melee weapon
@Liquidswordz56 due to its versatility, I think the staff builds can be better
I'm finding Profane Heart very hard to replace, alongwith siphoner. Been using shielded strike tank build, this one looks like its needs more skill than I may have so worth a spin.
Profane is too good. The lifesteal stuff is likely to get nerfed, so keep that in mind

Thanks Pouya!
What the.. big F.. is that? 😲🙈 WOW! 🤩
Shiny new toy! Go try it out! Lol
@@BoltJamison haha, that's a mandatory apparently 😄
❤️❤️❤️
💙💙💙
Whaaaaaat
💪💪
how can i find shoker ?
Kill a randomly spawned aberration. It's a random drop from them
I've put this build on, but I have 43 weight and it's green? I'm not sure how you're still on fast dodge...
I'm using egg drink
Shocker is just 🧑🍳💋
I love shocker. So much fun!
Sooo what if I'm not a wizard at dodging?
Sealed resin loop allows for wizard dodges. Untouchable and ambit ember give you bigger dodge windows too
@@BoltJamison hell yes I'm trying that
4:53 We gotta work on that pronunciation big boy. She is called Kay-u-la and not Quail-a.
All jokes aside I love the crystal staff It's the most fun melee weapon to use
😂 my bad. I don't speak Pan lol!
@@BoltJamison haha that's hilarious
😅@@BoltJamison
i tried running this build but im contantly out of stam
@greeno6109 how? You are doing light attacks.
Use Gul serum if having Stam issues but you shouldn't at all
