[3.6] Binks' Vaal Double Strike Ichimonji Champion - Extremely Budget Friendly

Master of Metal mixed with Dread Banner and Inspirational far outdamages Worthy Foe if you can get accuracy btw.

20% Aura effect from Inspirational, 14% aura effect from Dread Banner itself with level 4 enhance, 20% aura effect (buff effect) from Ichimonji's, and 50% aura effect from 50 stages placed version of the banner for a total of 104% aura effect.

Dread Banner gives 20% chance to impale, with all the aura effect this is now 40.8%, added on to Master of Metal for 60.8% impale chance.

Dread Banner gives 19% increased impale effect at baseline, with all the aura and buff effect this becomes 38.76% increased impale effect, plus 8% from Master of Metal travel node for a total of 46.76% increased impale effect. Impale is 10% baseline, and is now 14.6% of each impaling hit, multiplied by 7 hits for a total of 102.2% more damage for each impaling hit, or a multiplier of 2.02, or 202 per 100 baseline.


Per 100 hits:
60 impale for 202 damage each = 12,120
40 Do not impale for 100 each = 4,000

(12,120+4,000)/100 = 161.2 from a baseline of 100, a 61% more multiplier.


Just throwing in Hinekora's sight for easy 1000 Accuracy and swapping to Master of Metal and Inspirational over Conqueror and Worthy Foe massively boosts damage. Impale is incredibly underrated when you scale aura and buff effect on Dread Banner.

Hey, Xanthochroid!

Thanks for the very in depth and thorough insight. I understand what you are saying and completely agree! Master of Metal and Inspirational Ascendancy options orienting the build around impale makes for quite a strong contender. I definitely will have to try and experiment with this setup down the road for myself.

On pen and paper the numbers definitely add up. Although, the build already reliably one shots packs instantly and takes down single target bosses in a matter of seconds.

Thanks again for the feedback!

Small correction, I meant Hyrri's Truth not Hinekora's sight. Hyrri's truth is super good, it gives 28% crit mult, free phys leech, 15-28 flat added phys, and the Precision aura it gives is 1100 Accuracy rating (turn this on and you instantly have 95% hit chance), and also 85% global crit chance. This aura is super good, and is also affected by all of the aura and buff effect we get (20% from Inspiration and 20% from Ichimonji's). So in total it gives 1,540 accuracy and 119% increased global crit chance, in addition to the over 20 flat phys and 28% mult from the item itself. Strong af for this.

Also super secret insider tip here, Ryslatha's Coil is secretly the highest DPS melee phys belt in the game, and a 30% less min 38+% more max roll (makes sense once you look at the item) gives on average 15-20% MORE damage.

My pretty budget PoB for a pure phys version of this tree is looking to be about 2.6M DPS (about 4.4M including Vaal Double Strike Clones), once again on really cheap gear. Brutality in main 6l, taking out Hatred and Herald of Ash, switching in Precision from Amulet and Herald of Purity along with Ryslatha's Coil and Dread Banner impale effect stacking.

This is the first time in a long while I've done pure phys, and your guide here jumpstarted me back into theorycrafting, and this shit looks like it is going to be disgustingly strong on really budget gear.

Here's my progress so far: https://pastebin.com/GQfMQGyN
Punishment can probably be put on a CWDT setup instead of Blasphemy to save some mana reservation, but you can get off about 4 attacks on single target before the mana runs out, so that should be enough because single target mana cost is only 20 per, and the total attack speed include multi-strike repeats. Might not be enough, but can get some mana reduction costs somewhere maybe. Vulnerability might be the better option even though Punishment gives more damage, because not all bosses are even going to hit you, and not all bosses even use attacks to hit you, and even less still use melee attacks, which are necessary to get Punishment to work. Vuln will also increase the chance of bleeding enemies which helps clearing if using Haemophilia.

Bloodlust is also an option to hyper boost damage, and all you need is for your Ancestral Protector to inflict the bleeding.

Hey Binks,

I'm just trying to wrap my head around the tombfist in the build,

is it used for intimidate proc prior to having it in ascendancy?

If you decide to use maim as a support gem then you are always dealing bonus damage! However rare gloves are a good choice this league due to the Tombfist attack speed nerf.

quick update, im 71 now and has been smooth sailing after ichimongis at 58 - have spent less than 8c on build and no sign of slowing down as of yet, just finished act 10

as binks mentioned the ichimongis help a lot with mana if you have some leech as you will probably go from weapons with mix of damage to straight physical which increases the leech greatly

just wondering any end game uniques to aim for? something to dump all my money on?

Could you please post the skill tree with the official site? I can't use POB because my computer can't install it, and I really want to do this build.

A "15% chance for Double Strike to deal double damage to bleeding enemies" enchanted helm, and a well rolled Ryslatha's Coil are going to be the 2 biggest DPS boosts at about 15-20% more each.

Look for at least 37-38% more Max and below 34% Min on Ryslatha's.

im interested if you have any ideas to play around with these? i know attack speed would probably be better

I have one with 14% extra chance to double damage (already doubles damages) so quadruple?

and another with cast spell on skill use, im playing with bloodrage and phase run right now and it seems pretty cool
