made a mistake here, "General's Bindings" does seem to work with iron reflexes! so it would be a good idea to have boot and helm as eva bases. gloves should stay armour base due to the leather bound gauntlets node.
can some1 tell me what is he using on galvanic shard(support gems)? pls update mobalytic guide
what's about your jewel setup that you using.
Think it's worth running Death's Harp as the bow to get more arrows? Wasn't sure if the effect there is scaled via damage or not.
I've been wanting to make a tank character since before EA. I have a pathfinder that rocks shotgun shield. Extra skill ms + mobility on resonating shield lets me active block with 49% of normal ms loss + maim to slow enemies makes me good at kiting. My armour is fine, however I've been struggling in early endgame due to a lack or resistances.
I recently got a unique shield that shares block chance with allies. Now I'm interested in trying a sorcery ward tank with glancing blows to give a block aura to allies, while building more resistances from the beginning.
Hey, just wondering since we are going to stack armor, Blade Catcher node might be useful no?
What are the max levels you use for Conductivity and Cast on Shock? Both require intelligence, and it's our lowest stat, so I guess we can't just level them up the way we do with our other skills.
I was wondering if there was a way to convert phys damage to elemental. Seems odd to give a class an ascendancy node that only works if you equip a specific unique.
Looks like a great interaction/tech. Nice find! I'm not liking the look of that cloak though, prefer the more 'armour' looking items 🙂
What are your thoughts on Scattershot? I'm running it on Shockburst. It turns most Crossbow shots into a three round burst, at no extra cost to the clip (1 ammo in clip = one click of three rounds). Fun stuff.
If you had a fifth support gem for galvanic shards which one would you.go with ? I got lucky and found a perfect jewelers orb in santum 😊
Could you make a video teaching how to get a Sorcerer Ward skill?
You are wrong about the General's Bindings node not working. It does work, but you have pure armour bases instead of hybrid so it's probably not much benefit for you anyway.
I think it is bugged at the moment, taking any pure evasion % nodes in the tree give no benefit but it does apply to evasion rating from your items.
What i'm unsure about is if we are missing half the benefits from the armouor and evasion rating nodes. Also an example of this working strangely is that if I had an amulet with % increased evasion rating it would provide no armour whereas a ring with flat evasion rating does.
I'm currently using a ring with +171 to evasion rating and this is giving me an extra 258 armour.
TLDR: This node currently only seems to work with evasion rating from items, it also includes the effect of % scaling evasion and quality.
You always have such great guides, thank you!
Thank you so much. Im a pepega so these build guides help a ton 😵💫 i tried my own style, but its slowing me down at this point
How do you achieve 135 spirit without a body armor that has spirit on it?
This looks great, gonna transition into this soon! Sitting at 22k evasion on witchhunter & it doesnt feel good at all.
I would love to share how I built mine. I think the tree is way more optimized to accomplish the goals of this build. I need to put it in mobalytics with my update.
Great vid!! i cant get vitality support gem to work on herald of thunder.. You know why ?
I'm having a lot of problems applying shock. My stormcaller almost never applies shock and I have no idea why. Is there any tip to increase shock chance?
How are you getting 89% shock on the boss? Stacking shock magnitude on jewels?
Fix ur resolution i have the same monitor and i have black border around the pic cuz u upload a wide video in a normal ratio..
Tks you
this is cool idea but most of the time I die to random explosion which is elemental damage(Lightning/chaos) anyway. So physical damage isn't even a problem.
How is your shock getting up to 84%?
Hi, what's runes are in the body armour?
Nah. Better stack hybrid evasion armor and have around 3500 sorc ward, 70% eva, 35-40 phys mitigation.
Hi, i like your builds a lot, but how high is your level? I cant build it without more then 20+ Skillpoints and iam lvl 80 now. How is that work?
You should look into some weapon set skill point swap for your bow set. instead of crossbow stuff you could take mark effect for example.
Appreciate you doing this with Witchhunter. Seems kind of a unpopular ascendancy and i regret not playing Legionnaire or something else. Too lazy to level for now…
I literally was trying to work out how to make my Witch Hunter a little beefier last night. Wake up to this.
Quick tip: Sorcery ward works with support gems like cannibalism and does not take any spirit which makes it easier on gear choices. Great build, and thanks for the guides, helps a lot!
Did you check Infernoclasp plate belt? It has up to 5% max fire res and 290 armour.
i have 90% fire res with known note + 70% armour and… still sux 🙁
I feel like your nodes are way too spread out. You building a tank? Yet you choose a node so enemies can't evade your attacks? Not sure what you are trying to do.
Damage seems super bad for a T13
I was feeling good about this build till I attempted 4th ascendancy. The last boss is insanely tanky and it feels like we really lack endgame single target damage compared to the other classes
I'm trying to build a grenade less fire damage witch hunter, this is gonna help me so much!
Cool Idea, i was thinking about doing INT stacking with HOWA then since ES is kinda OP compared to life ES stacking. Maybe that is also an option don't have the time RN but cool and interesting Idea. Just wanted to throw that out there.
