[3.25] The Viper & The Mamba 🐍 Mamba with Bino | Viper with Venom Gyre

Hi Exiles,

here is a new video. This time, I'm going into the Mine and venture directly into :

#4 : Delve 600, T3 azurite

The idea is to quickly load Plague Bearer with a few Viper hits, then dodge the damn screamer bats while the poison aura does the job.

Hi Exiles,

here is a new video, which features four of my character in 4 difficult delves.
The naughty Pestilent Viper is in third position.
At that depth, we are way past what's reasonable to do with this build, so I'm quite happy i could complete this node (though it took me 10 tries). The idea is to quickly load our Plague Bearer bag with Viper Strike, then empty it all while manually dodging.

Behold :

The Unholy Four - Delve 666

Hope you like it :)

Here is a new video featuring the Pestilent Viper and three of my other characters. This time, we're going into a T16 Coward's Trial opened by Zana. First floor is t16 and then, we go all the way down to the last T19 room.

The Unholy Four - The Cowards' Trial

- The Nightblade Assassin takes the first room.
- Then, it's the Pestilent Viper, which clears mainly with Plague Bearer.
- Third floor is for my Lightning Tendrils Trickster, clearing here with Orb of Storms.
- And finally, the Caustic Arrow Occultist deals with the Summoner boss at t19.

Hope you like it :)

Can't wait to test two new skills in 3.12 : Impending Doom and the Void Pulse that attract monsters in a black hole like the Elder ;)

Hi Exiles,

With 3.12, I wanted to test the new Void Sphere skill.
I wanted to use it in conjunction with Plague Bearer. You suck your enemies into the Void why you slowly poison them. It doesn't get anymore nastier than this ;)

Here is a demo of this combo in T16 Caer Blaidd, Wolfpack's Den.

Hope you like it :)

PoB is unchanged in 3.12 : https://pastebin.com/mGc6sY4s

Could you switch out pestilent strike for Cobra Lash in this build and modify the tree a bit?

Sorry, just seen your msg. Ok, I'm gonna do that.
There has been a nerf on Divine Flesh, so I gotta check that also.

Hey,

sorry for the late answer.
I have simulated Cobra Lash with PoB :

I think you do not need to change the tree.

The nerf to Divine Flesh and how to overcome it

"Cutting a branch can save a tree"
The Ranger


In 3.12, Divine Flesh conquered Keystone has been nerfed, now granting +5% max chaos res (down from +10%).

So I've reworked the tree to compensate this loss. The only way to do that is to invest into cluster jewels. So far, the build hadn't any, but they have become mandatory.

Here is the PoB I have theorycrafted : https://pastebin.com/h2sHbUdd
This is the Born of Chaos version of the build.

/!\ Still subject to changes, as I'm trying to minmax it.

To get cluster nodes, we need to sacrifice a lot of points on the basic tree.
So I've removed Resolute Technique, Call to Arms and the Tribal Fury cluster, then removed Swift Venoms on the bottom right.
Tribal Fury is the biggest sacrifice here, but we rely on stacking poison very fast with Viper Strike or Pestilent Strike, and then activating Plague Bearer and running through enemies.

Here are the cluster jewels I recommand :
* A large Shield cluster with :
- Fuel the Fight, for mana leech
- Gladiator's Fortitude, for life and dmg.
- Martial Prowess, for accuracy

* One or two medium Chaos DoT clusters with :
- Circling Oblivion and/or Wicked Pall, best nodes for DPS
- Flow of Life, for life and regen

* One small Chaos cluster with :
- Born of Chaos : +3% max chaos res

* Optionally, a small Armor cluster with :
- Enduring Composure, to gain Endurance charges if hit recently, so as to compensate the loss of automated Enduring Cry.

> We get 80% all elem res and 86% chaos res = 83% all elem res.

In the process, I've gained some DPS, lost some life and I now have 92% hit chance.

The good thing is that the cluster offer more flexibility. For instance, you may want to get a second Born of Chaos notable to reach 89% chaos res. Or put a basic jewel etc.
On the basic tree, Imbalanced Guard can be a good choice in conjunction with Wind Dancer : more physical mitigation and less damage taken.



More viper than ever !

Good luck and have fun, Exiles :)

Hi Exiles,

I have made a lot of testing with different options, sunk a lot of exalted in it and died a lot in tough encounters. And now I have achieved a fully optimized version of the build.

PoB, level 92 in Standard : https://pastebin.com/0XPw3AHr

Here is a new video with this setup : T16 Waste Pool with the Enslaver.

#2 : The Toxic Avenger !

Good luck and have fun, Exiles :)

*

New features :

* Poisons deal damage 30% faster with Dirty Techniques and Swift Venoms (basic tree) + 2 Wasting Affliction notables on medium clusters jewels.
--> Enemies will melt like butter ! See the Null portals in the video.

* Unaffected by Bleeding with a Malevolence Watcher's Eye

* Frenzy charges generation while bleeding with Red Trail boots.


* Energy Shield is useless because of Divine Flesh, so we're using it to fuel a Frost Shield for additional tankiness.

* On the gloves : Strike Skills target 1 additional enemy


* Despair is self-cast. Could also come from a Witchfire Brew flask.

* Divine Flesh has been moved to Point Blank so has to modify only two small nodes.

* Poisoned enemies cannot regen life, with Disease Vector notable on a large cluster jewel.

The build still features :

* Pestilent Strike + Ancestral Call for farming / Viper Strike + Melee Phys for bossing.

* 80% all elem res with Soul of Steel, Crystal Skin and Apep's Supremacy Shield
+ 86% chaos res with Born of Chaos notable
+ Divine Flesh
= 83% all elem res



NB : 83% elem res instead of 75% means that out of 100 dmg dealt to you, you take only 17 dmg instead of 25.
17/25 = 68% --> 32% less elem dmg taken. More simply put, that's one third less !

* Unaffected by Poison with Maw of Conquest helmet + huge life recovery


* Self-inflicted poisons with The Golden Rule jewel.

* Temporal Chains reserves no mana with Solstice Vigil amulet


* Endurance charges generation with Enduring Cry + Call to Arms
