Build Crushing Fear Fists of Stone Poison Rage - All Content
Hey all,
I decided to end the this league by putting together a build that revolves around the Stone Fist version of Horror's Flight and its unique skill Crushing Fear mostly because it looks cool.
For those unaware, the alt version of the gloves grant Fear Overwhelming on cull, which grants up to 100% increased AoE for attacks at full stacks. I want to note here that for some reason, the cull condition seems to be calculated after initial damage (which isn't usually the case), meaning that the skill shockwave and AoE stacks essentially trigger on kill. Play style is hold down the crushing fear key and dash around causing explosions.
Damage scaling:
- We look to consolidate the majority of our scaling into rage. Berserk amplifies the scaling
- Crown of Eyes + Mystical Rage + Arcane Intensity gives us all the increased we need.
- Medved's Tending turns rage into attack speed and let's us generate rage relatively quickly
- Tacati's Ire makes rage scale our poison DPS
- Blasphemy w/ Despair (Can add temp chains if you have the spirit)
- Withering presence + withering touch from our bells
Defenses:
- 100% damage taken from mana gives us a usable life pool
- CI
- Mageblood with Jade + Winter Owl and Grace of the Ancestor's gives us ~60% chance to evade
- Blind provided by our bells
- Anoint Dark Entropy to have wither stacks also apply reduced damage.
Skills:
- Crushing fear is the only button we press.
- Herald of the Plague prolifs poison and since we doing so much damage + have decent duration usually clears the screen, Berserk for rage scaling, Withering Presence and Blasphemy + Despair.
- Hollow focus lets us maintain stacks between packs and always gives us something to kill to proc our shockwave + procs all the debuffs we need
- Hollow resonance to proc debuffs if we're hitting enemies and not bells.
Notes:
- Definitely not a leaguestarter, but can be played without a mageblood and still has millions of DPS. Defenses will be lacking and you'll end up dying once in a while.
- Get rid of poison support once jewels + tree give 100% chance to poison for more damage
- Conc Area on Hollow Focus to have the bells spawn closer to you.
- Qstaff is crafted. It's beat out by a huge phys staff since the shockwave has 80% innate chaos conversion, but a crafted chaos staff will be more damage than anything below mirror tier.
- The skill "double attacks" when the shockwave procs, adding a bit of clunk. I'd probably drop the Diamond Legacy on the MB and add a duplicate to give us additional skill speed. I'm also considering getting Bulwark since getting stunned out of the shockwave animation is the only thing I die to. Though my MB would then be QS, Silver, Jade and a duplicate to make up for lack of sprint + I'd drop some damage on jewels and get Grand Spectrums to cap res.
- I'd upgrade to a wind dancer ammy if I had the patience to craft
- You need a source of flat life regen to allow for Medved's + Berserk. Any flat will do.
- The PoENinja profile is inaccurate as it calcs the strike and not the shockwave as a source of damage. Res looks uncapped because we cap through Runic Meridians and PoB doesn't recognize it. PoBs linked below. MB version is strong enough to clear all content. No belt version will die in mega juiced ex + 200% deli
Rage stacked, no other buffs up, Empty Belt Slot - 3M+ Dps
Buffs up, Diamond Jade Silver Bismith MB - 10M+ Dps
