Beautiful run. I stumbled across this pretty much this exact setup by accident too and it's completely insane, especially effective for fast vault runs. Your early game looked really solid, I took block everywhere but you spreading more of the priority between block and defense definitely made you fully immortal much earlier in the run. I did get 138B damage in my last run (not that it matters beyond a certain point lol), the difference being that I took the crit rings (scaling crit chance / dmg), and used 2 doubling potions on the Crit Bonus multiplier, and the final on the huge AoE which made the glove reflect AoE cover the entire screen, 95B of the run damage was from War Hammer itself. Also ran the archer mark for base crit + multistrike nodes which made a big difference for scaling up damage early on. I would have assumed the echo ring would give more total DPS but maybe it doesn't do much if the initial hit already killed everything?
@FswithFarham2 ай бұрын
Sounds like some valid changes to make to really push that damage skywards. And yes, I think if you've scaled crit and are actually popping the enemies with the Warhammer hits, then Echoing band just sort of.. does not much. From the stream tonight, looks like there are still going to be valid builds for the Shieldmaiden at very silly torment levels, but the damage we saw from Blood Catcher will be gone I think, and the swaps to archer with the doubling may be a challenge as without the Blood Catcher healing, might need to look at more damage reduction. The 120%+ defence from the Land..L..Riflewoman can reduce the damage you take to so low that the healing from the Holy Relic ring looks to be enough to cover survivability.

I read somewhere that the upgrade for the morning star that makes the chains do damage is even better for this build, since you're basically standing on the heads the whole game. I didn't know they respawned before the 3 minute mark either, that's a great find :D
@FswithFarham2 ай бұрын
Will have to give that a try. Early days for me with the game so far. I enjoy broken interactions, I've got a feeling this is the tip of the iceberg. :)
@OfficialKetsu2 ай бұрын
The Mountain Idol heads always respawn after being killed, unless you're at max agony at which point they stop spawning entirely due to a bug. If you're scaling Bloodcatcher and trying to push damage you ideally want to commit seppuku around the time you'd hit max agony. Defiant Plate (Reactive) is also huge for this build, or any build really! If you're looking for something funny to try, I recommend Thornfist Cleric. Run the uncommon variant that reflects x5 over-crit when being hit (while stacking base defense; don't necessarily need to run Shield Maiden mark), and you'll be able to kill the heads only a few minutes into the run :D

I'm not entirely sure, if the block strenght modifier ends being doubled, I'll edit my comment, if I have answers from the wiki guy, or someone else, who should know it. another point being, with the mark of landsknecht, you have a trait called "fortification" which gives 20% defense, if you double that up three times, you have a total of +140% defense plus the 30% from bulwark, so all the +5 absolute defense traits, the normal one being 5x so 25 absolute defense and the shield maidens one, with the +5 defense/+10% blockstrenght, becomes something, which would be normally +45 absolute defense, now becomes around 117 absolute defense, which would interact with the armor defiant plate, which sadly, wasnt used here.

Hey bud, great video. Love the breakdown. Can you do a video on the archer? I seem to be struggling with her at much higher levels, even with over 70 shards. I'm guessing I'm building her wrong. I feel like it's almost imperative to go in with some defensive gear because she shatters so easily early on; but, as the game progresses it feels like the bonus health/block coming in with my defensive gear works against blood catcher and the potential missed opportunity on not equipping Wind Crown. Idk, I haven't run too, too many tries with her at high difficulty, but I just get my shit wrecked by Fallen Star and really simple shit like traps and small chip damage. And at much lower torment levels it feels like Phantom Needles is the right first ability, but I'm having much higher success with Ring Blades/Morning Star, but if I can't get them going fast enough I'm left lacking in damage.
@FswithFarham2 ай бұрын
Not tried archer too much yet but I undoubtedly will. I think phantom needles might be a bit of a trap, it felt really good when I first started, not found it to be useful for much on t10+ yet however. Bound to be some way to break it, attack speed and something... just yet to find the something...

Hey quick question. At 4:24 you oblivion the Proficient Stance I (Dexterous) and then take Proficient Stance I (Guarding). I don't understand why you oblivion'ed the Dexterous when you were about to pick one that blocks it anyway. Or does using a potion of Oblivion on Proficient Stance I (Dexterous) also remove Proficient Stance II (Dexterous) and so on from the pool?

Blocks later tiers, so getting rid of the 1 drops the 2 and 3 from ever appearing, useful for manipulating the levels you want. You can also memories them and take both tier 1 upgrades, then both tier 2 appear. Potions are fun :D
