[3.5] Cyclone - Cast on Crit - Dark Pact - Occultist [3 mil DPS] [7k MoM]
|
INTRODUCTION
Dark Pact in 2019 is this a meme build? NO! This build of dark pact has both incredible damage, survivability and clearspeed. This build uses cyclone with cast on crit to trigger our dark pact casts. For clearing, we trigger it on ourselves and has enough damage to clear mobs in t16. For bosses we cast skeletons and dark pact is triggered against them to deal huge amounts of damage. Darkpact sacrifices 6% of your life (your skeletons's life if there are any) to add to the base damage of the spell. We therefore scale minion life on gear and tree in order to boost our single target damage. Currently my skeletons have ~11k life which means an additional 660 base chaos damage! Additionally when dark pact is cast on skeletons they chain 2 additional times which means we deal triple damage with each cast.

Hi. I was thinking build like yours and accidentaly found yours while planning it. I am curious why you go occultist over scion ( slayer+assasin )? Made claw for my build Still thinking if going for flat cold or lightning for spells.

" Slayer+assassin is very cookie cutter and can do well in a lot of builds however occultist for this build in particular is undoubtly the best choice. Profane bloom is incredible especially since we are a chaos build and scale chaos damage. If you watch the video you will see that a single proc of dark pact makes the whole screen explode. Forbidden power is almost like assassin in that it allows us power charge generation but it also gives us extra spell damage and area which works both with DP and profane bloom. Void beacon is one of very few ways to lower chaos resistance and is VERY powerful since monsters have much lower chaos res. Malediction is effectively 10% less damage taken and 10% more damage dealt to cursed enemies. It almost makes us able to do hexproof maps/bosses and +1 curse. There's just too much occultist does for us. |

Would it be possible to run this as an Energy Shield Character?

" Possible? sure you can. Will it be good? probably not You can go low life or CI but either way your life pool is going to be tiny and dark pact on yourself is going to do about half damage of life version. It's also gonna cost you buckets of currency to get good es rolls and minion life on all the gear, especially a helm with +3 minion and minion life. Our body armor is only 1c but you will have to replace it with a good es armor which can also be very costly. If you have load of currency you can go for it i guess. |
