Love this guy. You have put in work on d2 for so long week after week. It doesn’t go unnoticed or unappreciated. Give this man a sub

Awesome video man!

[@scottb3233]

Hydra CE sorc was the build I tested the most on closed. Ran it a bit different, but definitely my s10 choice. Great video man!

[@Futureal81]

Cheers! Appreciate it, i hope it works out for you

Love that vortex shield find at the end lol! The magic of d2 such quirky things to find

Have a feeling youll go for a kicksin, great vid thanks a lot.

[@Futureal81]

we will see!

[@jaytroll188]

kicker looks interesting! wonder how much gear it needs to get rollin. was thinkin of going blade dance but might try kickin but not sure what to start before respeccin. not a fan of trapper but haven't tried anything else on ladder start for a sin

[@Futureal81]

@@jaytroll188 I like how kick plays. its not stupidly powerful, you still feel like youre working to beat the bosses and creatures, but its a smooth play, it feels good. even if not a top S tier build.

that necro summeon looks really fun and strong, other that look's nice for me are druids builds. Great job thanks for your work :) Got some things to think about.

You definitely have me intrigued by that fireclaw druid. I'm curious to know why corpsemourn over something like a valor with facets and is Kira's worth it over the other good stuff you could get from a jalal's with facets?

[@hdmtestacc]

@@Futureal81how do You level a barb to transitioning to bow?

[@Futureal81]

@@hdmtestacc There are a few ways, but i find the smoothest to just be whirlwind. Id get a easy to obtain weapon, like an obedience. 5os cryptic axes are relatively easy to get. any kind of elite weapon like ariocs needle, hell slayer would work well as well with 2 or more sockets in them. Some of the rest of the gear translates from ww to bow, like string of ears, LoH highlords and gores

[@Nandi8888]

Hey! What about dragon on fire claw druid? Is it bad with fire aura? Hand of justice and phoniex or hellslayer 4 soc facet?

[@Futureal81]

All if it works, but you need to keep in mind the attackspeed breakpoints. hellslayer also means no shield, that could be impactful.

[@justinhildebrand1515]

I went with a multishot zon on sc to start the season now im playing a blade sin on hc its been fun for my first time playing

[@zeeg3398]

Can this kicksin do ubers on hc? Its my 1st season ever in pd2 and after farming some time i thinking of next build

[@Futureal81]

yes, but you need to put more resistances in your gear if you do that. cause of mephistos conviction.

[@savigy1301]

Act5 merc with Beast or A1 merc with faith + templar for clay golem necro?

[@Futureal81]

Its up to you, some prefer the beefier merc, others prefer the vigor aura. both work just fine. However for me, i dont think anything is stronger than act2, with pride and templar, and then you self wield a beast axe. you get amp + decrep + fana + conc + might

[@frankenstein3163]

Little off topic but how well does D2jsp support the trading community for PD2 ?

[@Futureal81]

I wish every d2jsp user suddenly become left handed.

The fire golems build is before the nerf?

[@Lazris59]

My question as well

[@Futureal81]

The "nerf" wasnt noticable, we tested it both before and after. The footage is from after the balance changes.

[@KaosManz]

Long time no see futu ! IDK if that would be something u change or not, but Peace got nerfed by one skill. But the +1 Valks is still important. Is the fire golem test is before or after nerf ?

[@Futureal81]

Thats unfortunate, but i think youre still required to play it.

[@johnhardwick1736]

I just started playing again, havent pkayed since s3, and repeatedly hearing act4 merc was so confusing to me

[@jordiguiu]

Id say, add amp with atmas+ar bonus rising son doesnt add much, with raekor virtue to both up fissure and ww damage. We the fire rapture barb

[@Futureal81]

You could argue that rising sun doesnt add an awful amount, although. We are playing a non-eth weapon, the physical damage here isnt amazing in the first place. there is also flat elemental fire damage on the rising sun, not just the -8% fire resist. Besides, i honestly dont know if you can have amp and lower res procc at the same time, without them overwriting eachother. in any case, i think 8% increased fire damage + the flat damage is more damage output than the occasional amp procc with a bad weapon for phys damage. It would be interesting to see the difference.

[@teskataftaba]

Did you ever try D2R reimagined, Dobrincki post it?

[@Futureal81]

i did not, it seems a little bit too crazy for me.

[@seanneice3037]

Is corpsemorn any good as a merc armor?_

[@Futureal81]

he wouldnt utilise CE, so id say jsut for the reanimated? probably shaite.

[@MrJosa82]

Fire golem test before or after the rework?

Bow barb dream is dead!

[@Futureal81]

bow barb seems to work just fine. the talent never worked during the first week of the beta test, so they just reverted the ranged mastery talent to throw. Im assuming they realised they didnt have time to fix it so they just put it on ice for now. maybe for a later season they will implement it properly.

i think its sad that pure golem is 100 points build and it dosnt really give u anything good besides some golems most builds are 60 or 80 points and have at least one usefull synergie that gets u some defense or somehting. i dont really understand the hype about flame golems ? you have kinda good gear and infinity AND its a cow map are ur like 120k dps witch is not much for a aoe build and thats with infinity and lower res wand etc. that gear gonna cost alot so without all that u gonna do waaay less damage.

[@andrew-hf9fl]

@lolleonlolable the dps meter isn't really actually the end all be all for efficiency for a solo mapper. Fire golem is also a build that the scaling at the highest gear threshold puts you over the edge for one shotting mobs. Obviously there are many different ways to play a build, and this is no *flame* to futurereal, but if he wanted to maximize the speed of fire golems, there is quite a bit he could do. If you are willing to do a bit of snapshotting, you can get +12 to fire golems just from a weap swap to +3/+3 wand and nec head. You can run Phoenix shield, and get a really short blood warp, and just teleport around 1 shotting literally everything. Personally, I like going 20 revives, getting council revives that cast hydra, which finishes off stragglers. But full trangs is a nice safe, cheap, attainable option to showcase. Fire golems are sick, and they look awesome, and there's like 20 different ways to play em haha

[@Futureal81]

DPS isnt a good measure, because it variest depending on the density. if there is 10 creatures or 100 creatures on your screen, the aura does the same ticking damage, but the DPS will be 10x more. These maps arent even corrupted or rolled for density, so id urge you not to even look at the DPS meter. its irrelevant. if the build clears the screen with relative ease, the only thing you need to do is make sure youre running maps with high density so the build can operate effectively.

[@lolleonlolable]

@@Futureal81 yeah true, idk what to start :3 if summ nec is so pupular this league i prolly should go druid.? i dont even know anymore so many builds ^^
