Do you think using Vinktar w/o Avatar of the Veil is wise choice? I mean i have found myself multiple times in situation where i got flat out one shotted by those nasty Kitava Herald in Elder maps, with projectile alone (and i haven't had Vinktar on back then), since we went for Onslaught path in ascendacies we're suffering 50% increased damage taken which sounds HUGE. I'm sitting at 5,35k life at the moment but some melee hits are to be or not to be especially against hard hitting monsters like Kitava herald, if they are speed up in any form it become fight for life. How do you manage that without scarce armor and no CWDT/Immortal Call steup. Also my DPS with all frenzy charges is about 68k with GMP instead of Slower Projectiles, does that sounds ok? Can you take a look if i did something wrong? Overvalued something on gear i shouldn't or took some passives too early instead of other ones?

Also i'll leave my gear here in case you or anyone else more experienced could rate my current claw and gear overall what to focus on next, that would be greatly appreciated. Thanks for the guide by the way.

Spoiler

I changed flask section to compensate for this. Roll Shock removal on your diamond flask now, you don't need anything else there anyway. If your hitting vinktar then your hitting diamond flask as well, so shouldn't be an issue.

Your tree looks pretty good I took a quick look and didn't see to much out of place. Jewels could use some upgrading but it is only a week into league so not bad.

Helm enchant is merc, but again week in so pretty good. Your claw base is not the best and has no crit rolled on it but besides for that its pretty good. Love how you crafted (or someone else) one of the aspect skills on them. Wish I knew more about the skills, haven't crafted aspect skills on anything yet cuz I don't want to waste them lol.

Rest looks pretty good as well but again room for better gear, higher life, better res, more EDWA etc etc. That's why I love the build, lots of room for upgrading/improving as you go. The 68k damage you are doing should be what your plain hideout dps should be without any charges (just auras/golem). So far it seems all is going well.

I thought the avian skill could be useful on bosses because Herald of Ice is not doing much there, it's and aura reserving 25% mana so i have to switch it off and on which is kind of annoying. Also sadly in ho with just auras and golem i have more or less 31-32k tooltip dps with GMP/52k~~ with slower projectile. I just find my survivability lacking a bit, because sometimes i find myself in situation where i feel despereately hopeless, it's not even fact that there's no more instant leech, i just get one shotted, no discussion. And yeah, the helm enchant i got very lucky on my own merciless lab and hit jackpot on first try.

Also just recently looking at diffrent spectral throw build i got enlightened and wonder why aren't we using Blood Rage? I know it can be quite messy during mapping due to Vaal Pact, but on bosses this sounds too good to not include it, attack speed, more leech, what's not to love?

What do you think about Malachai's Simula before Rat's Nest? Gives good Lightning Damage and Blood Magic might be good since I'll be lifestealing a lot, and I sometimes run out of mana in boss fights.

I think it is terrible.

You lose like 700 evasion 70%+ crit chance, 10% move speed, 15% attack speed for what? blood magic which we don't want anyway and 20-30% lightning dmg.

Epicly terrible trade off sorry to say.

Yeah but before I have money for Rat's Nest... This is my 1st character.

New claw crafted:



The crit and slightly more attack speed really makes a night and day difference.

@edit

By the way i just got in Farrul's Den captured him and i can craft this aspect now, this sounds very valuable to us, even more than Avian aspect, what do you think? https://imgur.com/a/NUIC8

Use whatever you have available. A rare with resists is fine. Devotos, Starkonja are 2 other unique options tho not as good as rat's. Will you notice the dps between all 3? Probably not right now.

edit: Cat is the aspect I wanted to look at maybe using.. possibly. Have not really looked in to it tho.

The aspect of the cat combined with 2 items from the set looks straight out broken for us, both damage wise as well as survivability wise


+
Farrul's Fur (which is sadly pricy at the moment, starting at 10ex just for 6s) allowing us to get Aspect of the Cat without mana reservation and pasively (!!) generating both FRENZY AND POWER charges. Even without the Fur with just Bite (Helmet) we get massive amount of crit on bosses, turning off herald of ice, turning on aspect of the cat.

I am getting totally crushed in 10+ maps. Just lost an entire level getting one-shot by Maligaro.

How much life do I need to survive? I'm over 100 in all resists but feels like I am getting one-shot regularly at this point. Really not sure what to do.

How much life do you have?

Just over 4k.

Sounds like we found the issue, try to achieve AT LEAST 5k life, get more life on gear, flat life on abyss jewels if you already use belly of the beast, change around some passives from damage to life nodes. Don't blindly follow damage, because when you're dead not matter what damage you have in tooltip, you're doing 0 dead from the floor. Also of course, don't forget to dodge telegraphed skills, don't stay still hoping that you survive.

Beggining with this build can be rough, but this applies to every build tbh, i just did Forge of The Phoenix vaaled and died 5 times with 5,3k life, but that's because i was panicking and emptied all my pots of first skill and ran around like a derp into fiery tornados.

Also DO NOT forget to keep your Fortify up, it gives you more defense than you think.

I mean im not against aspect skill if you want to mess around with it. Herald of ice even if it does not shatter or curse still adds a bunch of cold dmg to your attacks. You should never use slower projectiles for general map clearing. and 30k is not great, but should be just fine for this early in league for general clearing. For boss swap to slower proj or if you have to skip boss flat out. Not like they are rewarding anyway.

As for blood rage there is no point. We already have a frenzy generator as we are raiders. Everything already explodes instantly, so using a gem slot, just to get minor attack speed and degening life while we do it? No thanks lol.

Even as a first character (which is fine) a rat's nest without enchant is what like 5-6c? You most definitely should be able to afford 5-6c helm, even if you convert some alts/chromes or something to chaos.

Its very possible. GGG said that the new "set items" are incredibly powerful. Now I know very little about all of them, what the best combo would be and if they are worse than old gear. There is a good chance that they would be much better if done right. Sadly I am not doing ST this league so won't be able to test it out. Obviously as well I won't change/update guide as it is a league only thing atm. This might change in future if they roll it over to main realm. I plan on doing a good bit of research/info about the items, the aspect skills and making a little chart of what the trade off would be. IMO this is what keeps the game always addicting and enjoyable. Constant new changes with gear/skill and always something to do and strive for.

4k is incredibly low. With good gear you should be over 6k. That means you are 2/3 of what you should be atm.

You also have to keep in mind that maligaro is a chaos damage boss. Just like almost any non CI char that means your chaos res is like -60. Have to be extra careful on things like this.
