Build Summary

Ball Lightning will orbit around you thanks to the gravitational aspect, making this a very mobile build. Because this build is so up close and personal, we utilize Raiment to help clump and group enemies. Firebolt enchant is for extra damage, and ice blade enchant helps reduce our cooldowns so we can have flame shield up during boss fights more often!

Variant Summary

• Due to the prevalance of long boss fights and one shot mechanics when pushing pit, all builds best chance to push is to achieve permanent uptime of flame shield via ice blade enchant and high attack speed with flame shield duration tempers

Build Notes

Gameplay Loop
  • Use Holy Bolt Elixir to help smash mobs, attack speed elixir preferred on bosses, but it gets expensive to use bolts for mobbing then popping an attack speed at boss, just use holy bolts. You will mob much faster and have more time for boss
  1. Spam cast ball lightning
  2. Cycle Defensive skills while attempting to sit on top of boss and facetank
  3. Use Unstable Currents during stagger phases
  4. Basically pop all cooldown skills besides flame shield whenever they are up, flame shield is saved for one shot mechanics such as lillith shade attacks (If perma Flame shield always use it)
  • Pit Level 100+ possible
How It Works

Ice Blade enchant allows us to spam cycle defensives so we can facetank bosses with the help of ice armor's barrier and barrier generation. Mekuna pushed to T100 in pit with Ball Lightning so it is possible! Board has been updated to remove all forms of conditionality.

use 2-3 topaz and 2-3 rubys in armor

Lucky hit chance to heal is an important temper to have, if you don't have it chances are you will run out of potions during these prolonged boss fights. some boss fishing is required
