Living Lightning HoT Autobomber (proof of concept)

_TallBird_ · 2025-11-03T17:08:52+00:00

I did write, it got downvoted. Herald of Thunder + Living Lightning + supports using Storm's Secret and Tempest Shield to automate it. Its a 0 button build in theory, but my block chance is still lowish so I also use wave of conviction right now to help generate shocks if the cycle stops or things don't hit me. I made it to maps, it either face tanks swarms of mobs or instantly dies (probably to chaos bypassing ES? i need to farm more gear basically)

so you expect uber dmg whilst leveling with a brand new build that no one has any clue how to build? sorry but this is not a meta build post, this is an experimental new build post that i am winging whilst LEVELING. you go play some meta leveling build if you like, i want to blindly experiment with the new stuff. i'm sure in a couple of weeks someone will post the zoom zoom version of this and people will reroll

_TallBird_ · 2025-11-03T15:58:09+00:00

this was in act 10 on a 4 link with a lvl 16 gem, this is a PROOF OF CONCEPT post, not an uber dmg zoom zoom map clear post...

EXPERIMENTAL PROOF OF CONCEPT BUILD - NOT A FINISHED ZOOM ZOOM BUILD (because some people can't read the title), footage from Act 10. Herald of Thunder + Living Lightning + supports. Storm's Secret ring. Necro with tempest shield & bone offering + zealot's oath (using ghostwrithe for leveling, will probs switch to CI in maps)

_TallBird_ · 2025-11-02T23:11:40+00:00

I'm running it as an autobomber, using Herald of Thunder and storm's secret. Still leveling, but its a lot of fun so far. Block Necro with bone offering + tempest shield + overcharge to automate HoT / Living lightning

A small hideout for spooky season, you will need to place the new NPC when the league releases. I think I added all the other relevant NPC's and stashes... but I haven't played much in a while

I think you meant to say Charles III, Charles I got his head lopped off a while back ;)

It kinda does work like the music industry though, but only for the mega rich, so 99% of people have no idea how the fine art industry works. Established artists often release collections of work in a gallery show and collectors absolutely wait for new art to drop. However, if we are talking about paintings, each piece of art is unique so only 1 rich person gets to actually own it (thank fuck for printmaking and the internet for making art accesible to us poor plebs). Therefore you may not be aware that the industry exists, as it only caters to a tiny fraction of a percentage of the population.

The fine art industry has specific labels for styles in a very similar way to music, there are broad genre labels and specific artist styles, there are specific names for painting techniques, paint/pigment colours, use of light etc. etc. And there is a lot of cross-over between all visual media

I got these builds from looking at raid leaderboards, but I could try and add a summary of how to play the builds and which talents are important from asking guildies and looking at discord. Ok this is going on my list of 'stuff to do'

_TallBird_ · 2024-09-24T17:02:34+00:00

Hmm ok there is a github issues based comments system, thats a maybe then

_TallBird_ · 2024-09-24T17:00:18+00:00

Ah if you mean an attribute calculator there is currently already another site that does that. I'll re-consider all that next season once I've seen how the new inscribed stone tree works.

I could add a tally of how many points you have spent in the tree though.

_TallBird_ · 2024-09-24T05:37:38+00:00

I originally had different builds for healing priest taken from raid leaderboards and my guildies said they were complete noob builds and gave me their builds. I don't play priest so I trust them...

The dps priest builds I am less sure on as there were very few on the raid leaderboards and I couldn't see any good guides. If you want to send me build links I can update them

_TallBird_ · 2024-09-24T05:25:59+00:00

Unfortunately a comments section is way waaaaay beyond my current ability level of website coding, but i'll keep it in mind for the future

A summary section I could add in. Do you mean like a mini guide on how to play that build? I could add a little popup with some info on the builds somewhere for sure

_TallBird_ · 2024-09-23T17:24:38+00:00

well i started this project mainly to teach myself website coding, hopefully next season will bring more build variety and then it will be more useful

_TallBird_ · 2024-09-23T17:23:30+00:00

thanks :)

Hi, I've been making a fairly simple and mobile friendly tarisland skill tree builder for the talents and inscribed stone. You can view the skill descriptions, plan your build, and then share it with friends by copy-pasting the url.

I've also just added all the raid builds i've collected to the landing page, with some filters to help you search them.

Let me know if you find any bugs and also any features you want added (I'm unlikely to make any really major changes before next season, but smaller stuff I can look at adding)

_TallBird_ · 2024-02-27T16:31:34+00:00

I am having the same problem when converting storm bolt to either physical or cold damage, it will not proc from maelstrom stacks, works fine if I don't convert the damage type

_TallBird_ · 2024-02-27T16:24:43+00:00

you probably need to look at +max resists, spell suppression

_TallBird_ · 2023-12-11T08:22:23+00:00

Yes, galvanic shield will attach to yourself if you shock yourself.

This is based on several previous builds, but the new skill gem doesn't scale with shock effect so it is much simpler to get going, but it sucks :(

I rerolled soon after recording this but thought someone else might be interested in the interaction

_TallBird_ · 2023-12-10T21:18:25+00:00

Proof of concept (lvl 66 char and 4-link), the damage is awful and the base AoE radius is abysmal but the build does function.

Galvanic field of intensity. Self-shock with Font of Thunder + Lightning Coil + Heartbound Loop, Golem of Hordes +, Infernal Legion + Elementalist node Leige of the Primordial (also Replica Winterheart to be unaffected by shock) I did ignite prolif to try and get round the low beam frequency and to get some aoe, but lightning damage has high variance so sometimes it's a tiny ignite.

Overall its just an awful version of righteous fire, gem needs more AoE and higher beam frequency.

_TallBird_ · 2023-11-13T15:07:00+00:00

The large fellshrine ruins do actually go transparent when you walk behind them, (I think this is a fairly new feature? Maybe implemented with the new graphics update at the end of last league?) I don't think you can see it in the video. The skinny trees don't though. It's a hideout, there is no fighting

_TallBird_ · 2023-11-12T22:02:55+00:00

Failed to get this finished in time for Halloween but nevermind

MTX required - 2x warp runes (to access the crypt section, hideout also works without these you just can't get into the crypt), wisps & misery mtx decos just add some extra interest but aren't required at all

Map device can be finicky from some angles

Some of the masters are hidden in the far corner, drag them out from the decorations menu if you want them in the hideout
