"nova: static field/tstorm are now nova synergies (huge dmg buff)"

Nova+SF+Tstrom+lightning mastery = 80 points

I wonder what can be paired with this to make a PVM build viable against immunes.
Anyone have ideas?

Seems like one might have to leave out some points on a synergy like static field and then roll those into frozen orb or something.

I think they should've buffed frozen orb. Make it a more viable build...

we dont know if these synergies will be weighed differently, similar to firewall getting 4% from warmth, but only 1% from blaze.

I can't believe no love for charged bolt.

Charged bolt I thought FOR SURE they would buff it heavily. It would be amazing skill in both PVP and PVM.

Might even be doable for LLD with the right sauce

if the ele dmg is high enough, mdr isnt rly a problem. but i dont see elemental martial skills being relevant, because they all synergize from pheonix strike, a skill which you can only put 1 point in :(

i went on maxroll.gg d2planner to see how high dmg you could get with +martial gear. tldr: 500 fire/light dmg (cold/pheonix are both irrelevant dmg). thats tickle dmg.

that said: tiger strike deals physical dmg, and the last charge gives up to 2000% ed bonus dmg upon release. thats more ed% than a pure charger gets. and the release will always land because kicks are unblockable in d2r.



i can actually see this working if stacking the charges is made easier (aka not blockable).

MDR applies to each charged bolt's bolt individually. so it will never really be viable. as the dmg gets knocked by pvp penalty, then res, then MDR.

DR/MDR gets applied before %res/dr reductions
