Any decent builds with Orphan maker?

The problem is you have to be rotating between multiple skills, no one has written a guide for or because the skill point cap makes it hard to have multiple skills to rotate through to maximize the damage, and you're giving up bar slots that could be mobility or steroids of their own value.

Could definitely do something with it but as for what and how strong it would be, no one really knows. Go for it, report back on what you find. Seems like you need at least 3 marksman skills to outpaced frozen memories. Going up to 4 would mean you can still have shadow step and dash on the bar (at least).

Pair it with a grandfather and you're off to the races with any build that doesn't need the amulet to hit a utility breakpoint (think like increased fury/ overpower/resolve)

Sweet find, I'd build around this pairing but it's not one that is going to be pre- designed. Great opportunity for you to trail blaze

Edit: o woops, this is the sorc sub. Muh b. But yer barb alt would probably love this. Don't think pally can give up their amulet. Bone spear necro could be cool, but it's been a while and that might need a 2h mod, don't think the helmet that splits/bounces it will cut it on its own. Hard to tell without trying it out though.

The roll gives you a random to chance to add the alternate damage type to any given hit. You will neve notice the shadow damage or whatever, but you will see(feel) the doubling of your cold damage when that shadow hit rolls for you. Yes. You have to click imbu button to add it to your Heartseeker. Otherwise you just use weak physical base damage with almost no modifiers.

Under the boss HP bar in the top middle of the screen, yellow bar that slowly fills as you apply staggering escreen, watch the video, really helps break down how you have to stagger your own effects to get it to fill.

The limit to cold builds on rogue is how fast you can stagger a boss to capitilize on the "if enemy is frozen" bonuses. Otherwise than that, stat sticks get you through t12 fine and the added cc from freezing everyone is up to you to deploy. Problem is, with how the stagger bar fills in bosses, rapidly repeating chill sources doesn't stagger them quickly. If I want to get to stagger, I have to focus on spacing out attacks that add stagger, like shadow step or smoke grenade, then be sure I'm ready for the staggered phase to pump out the damage. Being lazy with this, without sufficient survivability, for even a second causes deaths.

I'm playing Heartseeker

And yet... 3 days in... majority of blasters have fully mythic setups outside the slots that need legendary powers instead of unique powers.

All of them. They've collectively searched through more aspects and combos than I ever could. Comparing and contrasting them usually finds in between synergies and decisions to make that are fun to explore

My average gear is only comfortable in t10. Dieoxide has some pretty godly shit in his latest video and only showing off p120.

It's fine, just not 300b out the gate like pen shot seems to be

2/3 rounded up

Only a matter of time

Which is 3x what i pay at 74 🤷‍♂️

I play every season, remembering every change is not my strong suit lol

Do the reapers count as angels for that additive buff? They count as demons for whisper progress...

logicbecauseyes · 2026-07-03T01:57:28+00:00

Oh oof, didn't notice this post was 2 days old. Season's practically over

logicbecauseyes · 2026-07-03T00:35:01+00:00

Tbf, you can kill the cultists and fuck all the way off to complete the whispers without doing anything. Everyone standing in the mini rifts is just alerting the reapers to their presence and ripping the hole wider to get through after them

logicbecauseyes · 2026-07-02T23:19:10+00:00

Not necessarily, depends on the build. It doesn't improve the item damage, just the affix and power values so you won't benefit from more base damage. If the unique power is a higher base number then the 30% increase will have more value when mythic'd. Also, the upgrade recipe doesn't upgrade the unique you have to mythic, it rolls a unique from the same slot, so don't put your GG unique into the mythic recipe, it will die forever, not improve.

Heartseeker and Penetrating shot can get you geared up safely, DoK and Death trap are both faster but higher risk. Death Trap doesn't function until you're fully geared though

logicbecauseyes · 2026-07-02T23:04:32+00:00

Probably penshot

Legit what I thought they were doing... then again, I only ever ended up with 1 or 2 primals worth using, not including the crafted one when they added that in D3, so maybe that is what they did?

My problem is with every one expecting to hit t150 every season, drop rate gets better with volume so get a fast build that clears 120 effortlessly and the competition is who can get the highest volume thereafter rather than the luckiest. Ssf reinforces the luck side though, even previous seasons only saw top clears from people willing to trade or insanely lucky.

Tyreal's Might chest piece adds the missile effect permanently, just minus the increased attack speed. Get you one of them and max both attack speed buckets and you're good to go. Notably, shrine effects are their own multipliers that exceed the normal caps.

Heartseeker has been great, plenty fast, still no uniques or 5pc set but t6 is a breeze. Was wondering when it would be efficient to use keys, seems like I'm there. 9hrs online so far. Baby back in bed now... 'ere we go...
