[3.25]g00fy_goober's EleBuzzsaw Deadeye (Easily Clear All Content) *REVAMPED AGAIN*

I always wanted to try some ST build so Ill probably make this my league starter :) Thanks for updating the build :)
After GC miner in Abyss I am gonna enjoy something more aggressive :D
Also I love builds that can level with the desired ability, not just switching into it on level 70 or so.

I have just one question: Do you think that this build will be able to slay that new "Shaper & Elder together" encounter?

I mean honestly man how am I supposed to guess at that.... The content isn't even out yet, I have no idea the mechanics that will be involved in the fight or how hard it will be and nothing has been released about it yet... so I have no idea.

What I can say is this build does shaper easily, and elder was always a joke.

Not sure if you've mentioned anything yet goofy but I was wondering about your take on the new deadeye for this build?

I know, I was just wondering :) Maybe I am just too hyped :)
But thanks for answering even like that and sorry I took a moment of your time :)

Are you gonna make a Spectral Shield Variation???

Thanks!

New deadeye is cool just not for this build. In general I am a huge fan of 99% of the ascendancy revamps.

Deadeye is mostly all chain/pierce type of stuff which is completely wasted on ST. We don't use either, its not needed.

Not a problem, I am pretty hyped myself! I would guess that build would have no issues with it. Again would have to see the fight itself, shaper + elder could get crazy I think but...

elder was always a joke to me, even red elder 90% of it is the add portals and killing him takes 5 seconds.

Thanks!

I very much plan on testing/playing spec shield but it will be a whole different build/guide. Its a physical skill, don't think it will be used with any kind of GMP, it doesn't pierce. I think it will be more of a chain support type of playstyle. It looks fun and interesting and I can't wait to play around with it, but no I won't be making any kind of shield variation with this build.

A whole new build/guide? Im down with that...Thank you very much.

Looking forward...New Deadeye seems OP with Shield Throw btw.

On the topic "new deadeye for this build"

Ill probably take this guide as inspiration for my ELE deadeye Spec Throw league starter. I think its very viable if you know what u want to do with it. The purpose would be a very cheap, fast and fun character for day 1 up to day 5-ish. I disagree with deadeye being only pierce/chain.

Plan would be to get fast and deadly (double accuracy), gathering winds (tailwind more ms and as), and far shot (dmg) + endless munitions (acc, 1 proj, 50% aoe). Not sure about the order yet, probably endless will be uberlab.

This enables nearly no investment into the char because u dont need lycosidae due to the shitload of accuracy (main + minor deadeye nodes), all you probably need to get decent hit chance is 1 good flat accuracy roll on gear. 1 additional proj will enable LMP instead of GMP (= 10 more dmg) and deadeye has projectile dmg or attack speed on every (minor) node. 50% aoe is nice cherry on top of everything for Herald of Ice and Curse aoe.

However, the unique selling point of this character is to come online super early in the league and farm maps super fast on day 1-3 + very fast levelling with shitty day 1 gear. It certainly has lesser scaling than pathfinder/raider 1 week into the league when everything is cheaper to buy and gets more accesible. Its basically like a super cheap map map farmer (like uber lab chars), which you stop playing after a couple of days.

Personally I would greatly disagree but hope it works out for you. As I stated before deadeye revamp was really nice and its a cool class now, but it just does not effect ST that much. Most of it is all chain/projectile/pierce type of stuff. ST does not chain and is pointless to do so, and the way the skill works it already pierces everything. I don't know why anyone would want to do a deadeye ST char.

As for the other nodes which you suggested. Accuracy does not matter at all until you start mapping. 0 accuracy still gives you plenty of hit chance until you really get higher level and into maps. Its not bad but sure not going to go 2 ascendancy points just to double my accuracy especially with things like lyco existing that take care of the problem for me. Tailwind again is cool especially if you do a lot of running on a bow type build. I am not sure exactly what 10% faster fully entails, but 99.9% of ST movement is whirling so it doesn't really matter.

Far shot is ok I guess but slower projectiles and point blank is 100x better.

TO give up all the dmg that raider nets you to get very minimal buffs from deadeye seems like a giant leap in the wrong direction to me.

Lastly I would like to state that this build is very fast/easy/viable to start mapping with. I did so last league and was mapping on the same day.



Again all that aside, I wish you luck with your build and it gives you what you are looking for lol.
