I play fun build but it needs to have a right amount of efficiency. I wouldn't spend those fg for a build that barely functioning.

My non meta build is ES nova sorc and that is the level of off meta I am comfortable with.


okay.

Anyone with more fun builds?

You can use passion to make a zealbarb. Use grief pb as mainhand, passion pb as offhand. You get the zeal skill from passion but you actually zeal with the grief so the damage is good

Obviously wont be as strong as frenzy or ww but it's funny

Anything trying to deal physical dmg (like the HoW druid) wouldnt work with such a low base dmg from passion

The only real build is dream/enchant sorc
Its pretty strong

Anything else would be extremely weak and not fun if you cant kill a single monster
Unless you wanna feel like you’re playing a hard pvp matchup while you fight a fallen 1v1

Blade sin

Lay a field of 5 blade sentry, disrupt monsters with cloack of shadows + mind blast
Play as a tactical ninja
Very fun, and if built properly it can actually be strong

I calculated a bit for this setup:
Passion
Nightwings /15ias
Phoenix
Forty
LoH
String of ears
Gorerider
Highlords
2x Raven

Dmg from passion (225ed) + forty (300ed) + phoenix (400ed) + HoW (200ed) + might merc (180ed) + 200str

= 1400 to 1582 (ø 1491)

+50 DS (highlords+gorerider)

= 2100 to 2373 (ø 2236)

75ed to undead (passion)
= 2212 to 2499 (ø 2355)

350ed to demons (LoH)
= 2625 to 2965 (ø 2795)

Hurricane Lvl 32 + Nightwings ~2k cold dmg

With Passion + 55ias (15 ias jewel nightwings + 20ias highlords + 20ias LoH) u reach the final breakpoint:

6/6/6/6/10 Frames = 3,67 Attacks per second

Ar are u getting from Zeal+HoW+80% Bonus at Passion+2x Raven

Maybe I am missing something but it sounds pretty decent to me. Maybe u need more lifeleech with a dual leech ring but redemption aura + maxblock + lvl 15 chilling armor (forty) + lvl 30 Cyclone armor should keep you alive!

Zealbarb slaps, you can literally put all points into non combat skills because offhand you get zeal and zerk and onhand you get to use grief

I had one that maxed, find item I think. Was definitely something else lmao.
