hellskull

btw i noticed that hellskull no longer has cdr as a mandatory stat in 2.1 this makes finding a good one muuuch more difficult.

dam that sucks

looking at the new crusader items, I think this build is my baby come next patch assuming phalanx procs firestarter

fist of heavens
firestarter
phalanx archers ( used on cooldown and will always be up with new ring )
horse
provoke - lightning
law/whatever else

--items

eternal union
amazon parma
baneful remnant


pets everywhere applying the firestarter
never have to be in melee range and all your pets doing all the applying for you

blizzard is really trying hard to make a phalanx build.. wit all the phalanx effect on items..

ty men

i did some pages ago.


btw a question to those who tried shotgun on the ptr: in 2.1, do you prefer a hellskull or a holy lidless? hellskull in 2.1 does no longer roll with predetermined cdr, so finding a hellskull with str, cc, cdr and skillbonus/vita/socket will be extremely hard. therefore, i think a lidless wall with 20% holy bonus and 5 main stats will be the much easier to obtain endgame shield. (20% holy, str, vita, cc, skillbonus/socket/life%). yes, you lose the potential cdr, but such a lidless can provide massive amounts of defensive stats.

what do you think?

btw does anyone know how the hellskull bonus and the heavenly strength malus interact with each other? which comes first?

are you at 90% damage (-20+10), or at 88% (-20 from heavenly strength, then add 10% of 80% (=8%))?

its probably multiplicative so it wont matter


I dont know for sure though

My shotgun T6 Build

Akkan and Crimson Set mix Required stats -

AK Shoulders, AK chest, Hellskull -heavens fury dmg
AK gloves, AK Shoulders, AK Helm (Soc Diamond), Hellskull - Cooldown Reduction
Rings Trifecta (ias/crit dmg/crit chance) Rorg, Soj holy dmg crit chance(dmg if you want)
Of course reaper wraps
Then crimson belt and boots for the 10% cd and resource reduction

Necessary items-

Fate of the Fell - gives 3 heavens fury so turns Fires of Heaven rune into 3 blast shotgun cone
Full Akkan or Rorg
2 Pieces of Crimson must use belt and likely boots
Soj gives a lot of dmg
Holy/crit dmg/crit chance ammy- massive dmg boost

Fun build but requires Fate of the Fell or is completely useless

Can usually get to around 150mil per attack on elites
