How many T's does your BL do?

My build is coming together nicely now, I have minimum 2 multipliers on all items, 3 on rings and gloves. Only one on i winterglass and Okun. I have shit RNG, so no GA multipliers on any items. Crit in stat sheet is 5,88k

My maximum crit has been 400T in VERY crowded fights with a lot of overabundence stacks. Reaching the boss in pit 140 in 4-5 mins, but my damage drops to maximum 80T in the boss fight and it takes forever. I have started to switch my luciol charm to rustbitten dirk if I have the boss alone. If there are plenty monsters around the boss, I keep the lucion.

My setup is pure Mekuna pit push build. With starless and winterglass.

My goals isn't primarily to do pit 150, more getting my glyphs to 150.

I am considering a switch to regular amulet and ring.

But I don't see how I can get enough crit chance and mana sustain for lucion without starless skies and winterglass.

What kind of setup are you using to push pit 140+, and how do you do the boss fight when damage drops due to less effect of overabundence. Are you using Lucion or the berserking charm? Or tal rasha charm?

Kind of feel I am hitting a wall at pit 140, ofc I need items with GA multipliers. Survability is meh, with in town toughness 675k

Tired of Ball lightning, what about other lightning builds?

Well, I have never liked the being surrounded by balls melee thing. And I don't like it any better now. And I get sad when my lovely lightning spears don't do damage in pit, but clears mobs im t12. My pre nerf BL is good for pit 136 ish, survability the biggest issue.

I don't want to play a build that I don't like anymore, since frozen orb sucks, I need another lightning build.

CL, lightnign spear, charged bolts, crackling.

How do you do in pit with these builds, and in case do you have a build guide for it? I want to sniff on pit 140 and my ultimate goal for season is levelling my glyphs to 150.

Any suggestions?

Anoæyone have a good lightning spear guide?

As title, I want a pure as possible spear build. No azurewrath or iceheart bra is, unless someone has convincing arguments on why to use iceheart/azurewrath :) Edit: sorry for typo in title

Question about ball lightning and lightning spear build?

My static field has hit a brick wall at pit 121 and it seems impossible to progress, nothing I do helps.

So, I need another build to increase my glyphs from 125.

Problem is, I really don't like melee builds, and the circulating balls feels really offputting.

  1. Does the build work without the orbiting balls? In high pits then you tend to get surrounded and I guess circle balls is ok, but the lack of aoe in t12 farming seems bad.

  2. How high in pit have you pushed lightning spear builds, and what guide do you use?

What pit level are you guys doing with static field?

Doing Mekuna. Decent items, not stellar.

MYTGIC weapon and legendary focus.

Threefold and lucion charms.

Managed a pit 121 now after 10 tries. It wasn't exactly pleasant. So much. Crowd control mechanisms to avoid which reduces the number of blizzard's casted and then slow boss kill.

I generally don't like playing with staff, I think of switching my mythic sword to a legendary with good offensive aspect

I though static field should be stronger than where I am now.

Edit: I also wonder about why Shako is preferred over heir of perdition. I use heir, since I don't have a Shako yet. The x80% from heir should outperform the skill ranks from Shako by 50 miles.

I case someone tries to decide between lightning charms and threefold

Well, choose threefold.

I played with 5-charm lightning for a while and didn't like my static blizzard build.

Then changed to threefold and wow it got so much better. Suddenly I had perma-tp because of meteor/overpower, I died less (not sure why threefold does that) and my damage felt more consistent and maybe a bit atronger.

Levelling my sorc alt now after loosing the will to play from starting warlock. Doing static field wanna be blizzard, since it works well without a lot of uniques. But, as a former blizzard enjoyer, the weird static field isn't blizzardy enough for me. And I have a distaste for ball lightning because they don't look or sound good, and the skill has been at the core of every damn meta build since s6 because of fast animation and unstable currents.

So, I want to transform to a frost build, but I also want to farm t12 with relative ease. Doing t12 mephisto easily isn't a must, I hate bossing.

I saw a frozen orb build clocked in at pit 117 on helltide.pit. How are you guys doing with frost builds?

Is easy t12 even possible with frozen orb? Or ice shards?

I also like lightning spears very much, so that's a lightning based build that I can live with. I see spear builds in the 130's on helltide.pit. Anyone here with experience? Yes, I know spears build is a ball lightning build, but when the spears are damage dealers, then I can live with the stupid ball lightning
