-------------------



The idea is simple here. We start with a build that is strong with little gear, and then we transition into a build that does uber easily with good gear, and has a similar skill tree and reuses some of the gear pieces. At most 20 regrets will be needed in addition to the respec points we get.



There are several initial builds for you to choose from depending on your preferences. All of these help krait, help krait, help oak to align with the coc discharge build.



Recommended Initial build: Shockwave Totems

My SWT gear + tree in Talisman SC

L80, Dec 14th

2.9k life after reserve, 2.2k ES, 14k TT DPS with inc AoE and no flask/charges





Gloves are missing immortal call in the CWDT link and enduring cry in the other socket.

SWT comparison vs CoC discharge without Voll's Devo



SWT

SWT isn't great for leveling 1-70, so we level with Flame Totem, Fire Trap, and Firestorm Trap.



Leveling trees:











92 pts.





Final SWT Passive Tree



Gems:

3L

Shockwave Totem - Faster Casting - Increased Area of Effect

Inc AoE can be swapped for conc effect if you're anticipating a particularly hard boss fight



4L

Physical to Lightning



5L

Iron Will or Added Fire

to make iron will work look for gear that has high amounts of STR on it



6L

Item Rarity



Auras:

Hatred + Discipline | Enduring Cry

Blood Magic - Clarity

These are meant to go in your weapon/shield



Incinerate + GMP + Curse on Hit + Assassin's Mark or Ice Spear + GMP + PCoC

This is for generating power charges with/without Romira's ring



CWDT - immortall call - summon ice golem



Trap - Multiple Traps - Blade Fall - Trap and Mine Damage

To help with single target in maps



Gear

Romira's ring is required to generate power charges efficiently. Until you get it you will have to use ice spear with PCoC instead of incinerate.



A good rare dagger will be very helpful. Look for spell damage, spell critical strike chance, adds x-y cold damage to spells, and global critical strike multiplier. A dagger is better than scepter/wand since you can use whirling blades.



After that you will want a tabula. But a rare 5L chest with 300-400 ES might be even better.



Your defenses come from your ES so you will want a shield with high ES (350+), boots (150+), and helmet (250+). Make sure you get chaos resists. You will re-use the shield, boots, and helmet on your endgame build so feel free to spend extra on those.



For the rest of your gear you can either get damage or magic find. For damage go for diamond rings with crit chance and maligaro or facebreaker gloves. For magic find go for rings with IIR, perandus belt, and gloves with IIR (or Aurseize if you can afford them). Leo's mod (10-20% faster start of ES recharge) is extremely useful on rings. It's a prefix and costs 2c to craft, so I would recommend leveling Leo to level 3 for it.



SWT also requires 155 str, and bladefall requires 155 dex, so you will look for those on an amulet or boots/gloves.



Flasks:

Perpetual Granite of Iron Skin

Resist Flask of Warding (have one of each, choose based on map mods (extra elemental damage) or map boss)

Resist Flask of Heat or Mana flask of Heat

Panicked Eternal Life Flask of Staunching

Perpetual Quicksilver of Adrenaline

While playing incinerate totems all your currency should be used to buy brittle emperor cards or save for voll's devotion. Once you have a voll's devotion and a 5L voll's protector you are ready to do uber. Until you get a voll's devotion, keep playing incinerate totems.

Testimonies

Patch 2.0.5 5whc race

" ekunholy



2 missing items:

Wand, 55spd + 22cs + 56avg spell light dmg

Andvarius 60+15iir



Tabula fully covered it's cost. Jewl+fuse likely made extra 5ex (just because i had no issues with socketing and linking my chests over and over).



Tree i've used -

No ZO and double curse, extra stats and life/mana cluster instead

I had multicurser in group for mapping, and kinda felt comfortable with just es recharge without ZO



Auras: Discipline + Anger



There is my COC-Cyclone gear in Darkshrines HC (now in STD because life reached zero) -



Got full set of cards for Voll's Devotion at day #7 (1-1.2 ex per card), been waiting for master service to craft dagger for a most part.



Have spent about 15 ex on full gear plus jewels.

Rest of currency in stash: 10 ex pure, 4-5 ex in equiv+maps, some crap to sell for extra 3 ex.



Indeed, making money in HC seems too easy :D

Patch 2.0.4 1msc race

" lord_leto

I went to 1MSC one week late and wanted to try totem and a char with es+life. My goal was to get few brittles and finish it in standard.

But I got more luck then deserved and here I am on the brink to respec to the coc build.



I started with a Lifespring I got from friend, first with Flametotem and by l20 or so when some vendor gave me a 4l continued with incinerate totem + selfcast incinerate. Got Discipline as early as I could and cruised along using 3l zombies as meatshield.

End of normal I had about 1.3k life + 1k es and enough dmg to do act4 with beyond and no death.

First death was in act4 Daresso. Was a bit crazy with beyond but I could at least do it solo.

Bought then my first 5l for 1c

Spoiler

For cruel Malachai i had 2k life + 2k es. Did it with a random guy, but he was merely a meatshield, could have done it alone.

In merc I had enough currency to buy mediocre splinters (15c) since i didn't spend a penny till now and used all fusing I had for that.

Then the build started to shine. Evrything melted and I could farm lake pretty efficiently.

So i spend a bit of currency to finalize the character.

So for about 3ex i had a char with 3.2k life + 4k es and 6.2k incinerate tooltip and 35/125 MF.

That seems good enough to do up to tier 8 rare maps with all mods on. Every income from that point on went to Brittles.

is great for the build and can be reused for coc build. Before one can use

it make possible running Disciple+Purity+AA with l1 enlighten from about l80 and still have enough mana to cast golem. So I finished all challenges with ease.



Now comes the luck part. I found 2 Brittles from Voll after patch. Chanced a Void Battery I sold for 7.5ex and found a decent Ventors which I could trade for 1 Brittle. Farmed the rest and here is the result.



Spoiler











Now at level 87 I am ready for respec. Btw by my count one needs over 30 regrets for that at that point. I used some free respec during leveling so its 38 for me. Since it is not always easy to buy regrets. My hint is to farm temple map for Vinias Token. With my MF I had a full set which is 10 regrets after 6 maps.
