Xander's Hero Builds

With HR you can literally do whatever you want. Esurge+bone minions, Signet of Illu with /Mo with smiting or /N with minions/death nova/curses hexes. Fully depends on what u want. Looking for more damage, more variation?

Alright, what’s your playstyle? Do you use cons/pcons? As little heal as possible or just want it safe enough? Resses or ress scrolls?

I’ll make you a setup or a few different options somewhere next week. About to head to a bday:)

Alright, thanks for the reply^^

Let me know if you plan to use atleast a BU or not (will impact skill decisions etc^^). Can also make a cons and non-cons version and u can decide:p

Cons-version:

Non-cons version:

That and extra damage. If you want more variation such as “only one build once” just let me know.

Will get that to you tomorrow. In bed now and brain wont cooperate:p

Alright, so for the cons version I would run these attributes. I tried getting their main attributes to 15 (+4 HR +1 Conset = 20).

I have done the calcs below, so check it out and enjoy the madness

Ended up running something different. Worked great, prob highest dps build besides Soul Taker dagger + Dark Aura. Can post builds and templates tomorrow

New project:

Anniversary Melee Dhuum Ele:

The current setup I have in mind:

I am feeling very sure that I am in desperate need of more protection so I might have to change the heroes around. Atleast this is the first try at it :p

Alright, I have changed quite a few things. Just finished setting up the heroes (mercs all runed up, just need to get weapons; except for the anni weapons got those alrdy^^).

Will start going through EotN soon to get my own Stone Gauntlets, will see how it goes

Alright, trial 1 was quite a success. I did the boss quest chain to get IAU, no deaths but still the healing feels a bit off. I think 1 AoD derv might just not be enough. I have changed a few other things across the heroes. The build really is fun and it's also fun to know that you only have each prof only once in the team

Just a few sidenotes:

• R/W: Pretty much had full energy the whole time, will try a few things out to make sure we get the most out of him (i.e. take hamstring after all and/or swap Riposte for Deadly Riposte)
• P/W: Same story as R/W. Added in Awe (10 energy cost) which dazes KD'd foes -> PI synergy. Mostly curious to see how the hero will use it.
• Me/N: Swapped Arcane Conundrum for Mark of Pain. I felt like the hero didn't need the extra energy alongside a BiP (same goes for Drain Enchantment)
• D/Mo: Can easily maintain Strength of Honor on all 3 melees (can even maintain 4 with a BiP very easily).
• N/E: Dropped Jaundiced Gaze for Dark Fury (Might be dropping points here in Blood and/or Fire and also take Curses here and drop the adrenaline stuff (or atleast one of them)).
• Mo/Me: Dropped Shield of Absorption for Shield Guardian (Like I mentioned, the healing felt off. I think Shield Guardian might be a good addition to heal a bit better).
• Rt/Me: Swapped Nightmare Weapon for Warmonger's Weapon (very good rupts esp on any of the 3 melees with speedy attacks) and Lamenation for Mending Grip (again; healing).

The idea was to take as little as meta builds I could. I know there are way better ways to not die, but where’s the fun in that:D Also I have always preferred a protter over ST personally for the build options it offers. ST is always stuck to ST, but previously I used to run N/Mo with any elite tbh, all were viable (UA, Aura of Faith, divert hexes you name it)

After today's adventure, this is the current setup:

Mostly just testing out different things to see whether they work better for me or not

Are you using str or sr axe ?

Yes. 🤣 I am using both, swapping to sr when energy is low but have to watch out since I lose armor bonus from my 5str shield xd

Starting to get closer to getting the setup right^^ Just picked up my warrior boots so I can kick some ass:D (aka finished the fashion, now time to smash)

Alrighty, this is the current setup! It's been working wonders. So far things are looking like they are reaching their maximum potential. However... I am not too sure about my own build since I haven't tried anything else over Starburst yet. Judging from the numbers, Starburst will most likely be the most damage. But there are of course many more potential builds u can run.

Which is why I made a few of them (including my current Starburst build). For NM Greater Drawf Armor is quite unnecessary, however it is a melee ele afterall..... xD

My preference will probably go to either air ele. The Earth eles seem great, but WHY... WHY.... WHY is there no earth conjure? #EarthDeservesJustice&Conjure! So yeah, just put them in there for good measure, but will very likely not run those for that single reason xd

Btw, I just put in the same attack and pve skills in ,most places just for the sake of convenience. The biggest change comes from the elite skills so that's my starting point :p

Alright, here's v1.99999999999 in action. Completed Dalada Uplands vq (31mins) and Sacnoth Valley (54mins as u can see below). I gotta admit, a few pulls were scary. Some heroes had perished, but all were gloriously rescued by the Para hero^^. A few things I will be changing: Dark Aura on the Necro; I forgot Spirit Light also sacrifices, so hero ends up using it a lot on the rit :(. Also not too sure about the Ranger BiP. AI doesn't seem to like it as much as a normal BiP.

Fun Fact: during Dalada VQ Vael was tagging along; the dude didn't die :D. All deaths happened during overaggroes where there were more than 2 eles on HM (esp burning forest part was scary; a lot of "obstacles" to get stuck on for heroes and a lot of AoE spells xd). But all that matters is that my ele is still Deathless!
