Today is the day I died. My character was lvl 100 (around 40-50hours in), about to go in the last dungeon for the ultimate difficulty main quest line. A nemesis appeared and I didn't catch that memo. A massive dragon like monster flew in, punched me in the face and my dude went sleeping without even saying good night. Was a fun run, learned a lot! Defiantly going hardcore again on the next character. Thanks for this <3

Yeah, just don't farm it. Update the MIs you were using and just keep pushing. You can still farm totems at 100 for purple items when you get there. It looks like Krieg's set doesn't drop in Elite anymore too.

Hy man, what's up ? Nice video as always. I actually at lvl48 Soldier (HC SSF). I didn't decided yet for the second mastery. I smash with Voldrak weapon everything, and I hesite between Shaman or Necromancer class. Can you tell the pros/cons of each with Soldier ? Thanks for advance
@Paikis11 күн бұрын
Personally I prefer Necromancer. Warder is basically a defensive mastery combo, and I don't value the extra defense over more damage. You can do everything in the game with the squishiest mastery combo, more defense isn't that useful IMO. Necro has extra physical resistance shredding, so more damage and also has some nice effects for reducing enemy damage and giving yourself a lot of hitpoints.
@materafa95710 күн бұрын
@Paikis thanks. I know that shaman and Necro have some life Leach. And I think that Death Knight is less "piano build" in melee. For the moment with only soldier mastery it's okay. I think I will choose the second one at least in the Malmouth severs

I'm leveling a soldier right now and using blade arc with the bear devotion and it is doing pretty well both for aoe and single target. I'm relatively new to the game and have seen a few guides. I was leveling force wave, then swapped to using controller, and blade arc on controller is super chill.

Just to note, following this video and getting some insane upgrades I was at lvl 18 at 2.5k HP(200 regen) with about 30%+ what your damage is(again insane upgrades). The Scary totem in the wardens zone was pretty easy. With kiting, dodge rolling, I never got hit. But I could see how it is a death trap without certain DPS/HP limits.
@Paikis11 күн бұрын
The scary totem in the Warden's area isn't really that scary. Most builds should be able to kill it, but it's a risk that you don't need to take. And like I said in the video, that totem probably has the highest kill count of just about anything in the game.

This is a good starting option. I'd also recommend the Deathknight or Elementalist builds I have on the channel. All are solid builds for a first character. If you want to do pets, there's Cabalist for skeletons, or Ritualist for skeletons with a focus on the bigger pets at 100, or Conjurer which I haven't played on the channel yet. I'm not a fan, but some people love it. It's a play style thing for me, nothing wrong with the build.

Blast Shield is a great circuit breaker, probably even the best one, but this build just wont see it trigger very often. You can do it, but Demolitionist doesn't have physical resistance shredding, so it's going to do less damage for a bit more safety.

I think it would be a good idea if you gave a couple alternatives to the items, just in case ppl are missing one or two of the BIS. For example, if one has everything EXEPT the pants, what would be a sugestion for a good alternative?
@PaikisАй бұрын
I would stay with fire pets or whatever you levelled with until you have most/all of the gear. If you have everything except the pants though, go ahead and swap and just use Bysmiel-sect legs. In terms of items, you absolutely must have the rings and gloves or the build wont work. You also kind of need the Lost Souls set. The 4 piece is incredibly powerful. Both of the rare items can have anything for affixes until you get the triple rares. Boots would just be random rares until you get the Fiendflesh. For the belt, go for either a +1 to Necro for Occultist belt. Make sure it doesn't convert pet damage though.
@johnmalkovitch1887Ай бұрын

Something like 40-50% would be my rough guess. You're losing the conversion on Skeleton Mage spells, Hellhound attacks, Familiar attacks, as well as the flat elemental damage from the auras on Hellhound and Familiar. You're also losing damage from the cold conversion on the Wraiths, the flat cold damage from Soul Harvest... there's a lot of missing damage. It will still work, but it's not going to be as good. Depends on how good the conversion % rolled on the ring you do have.

Ravager is going to eat a lot of characters. Even some that can actually kill him because you need to know the mechanics, more than just out-gearing them.
