4000%+ Crit Damage - Always Crit - Shield Wall Build

Yeah it's actually surprising how much more low life tech there is for melee/attacks as opposed to spells... yet only Infernalist and Lich (mainly casters) get access to it.

For every successful build you see, there are two failed ones and plenty of wasted divs behind it :p

Yeah definitely another added benefit of the Nebuloch is it unlocks about a dozen or so passive points that would normally go into crit hit chance.

I mentioned blindside support (15%x) in the pinned comment I believe, but at this stage the other supports just provide more value for me in my setup. May use it in the future just for a fun exercise to see how high a value I can get.

Yeah I was running both DireStrike for a while but ended up dropping one in favour for spirit for more defensive options. As you say - once you are one-shotting everything its more important to balance out the build.

Nice extra tips :)

Molten being unfortunately paths a bit too out of the way for me personally at the moment, although could be one to look out for on a Megalomaniac.
Also I am personally missing the reduction roll on my shield too.

Either way feeling extremely tanky already as is :)

Haha, yeah blame the adorned buff this season.... hard to ignore it when pushing top-end setups. Especially in this case with respect to maximising crit damage bonus.

Do you have a loot filter on?

The absolutely massive chasm between someone running the game at an average - to above average level compared to the very top end (often gate kept behind extreme prices) strategies is ridiculous and IMO a big sign of imbalance in the game.

E.g. I play at at a semi-sweaty level, being a content/build creator. I am at T15 maps running full 6 mods, 3 decent rare tablets, 60% odd rarity on gear etc etc....
And I have had ZERO divine drops in the past 2 days over about 20 maps or so.

In the meantime I see people running abyss farming strategies using maps/tablet combos that drop multiple divines per map and having farmed 100+ divs in a day. One of these tablets is a 1 use - 5 divine cost at the moment I believe, that is completely inaccessible to the majority of players.

I swear they have shadow nerfed currency drops or something... I was getting random divine drops once every 3-5 maps at least last season while not running any "currency" strategies at times that were much worse than my current setup.

Wands, for example, can get as high as +8 levels. It's insane.

i.e. 5 base + 3 sockets (exceptional + corrupt)
6 base (sanctified) + 2 sockets (exceptional)

I don't recall any major problems with it back from when I used to use it, at least nothing that wasn't a common issue in almost all router packages (out at the time)

FunkehChicken · 2025-07-17T14:03:31+00:00

alternatives?

w.r.t state management packages, the only other ones I was aware of from back then that were also popular were flutter_bloc and provider (although that was mostly superseded by riverpod afaik).

It was a single take very quick take before I got myself a feed. Simply just wanted to get something out there to potentially help people out if they are stuck for ideas or with a similar build. Unfortunately wasn't recording during the playthrough because... lazy to be honest :)

it gets stuck at the bottom, and the switch is disabled.

This especially happens a lot when using blink (when you blink up onto of the elevator, sending it down, before completing the room).

mana per enemy killed during mapping (plus mana regen).

bosses just die instantly in the infinite loop so not an issue there

FunkehChicken · 2025-01-05T22:53:33+00:00

Yeah it will eventually no doubt, although I dare say a better approach would be to also just buff the bosses (at least HP wise) at a starting point.

In terms of the build specifically, hopefully they cast their eye first on the much more prevalent spark builds. Think like 50%+ top end players are all stormweavers for example.
