What is best setup for abyss warlock?

1#
Enigma, arach, trang gloves, maras, sojs

Then void (+8 to abyss) and spirit and hellwardens will

Or

2#

Enigma, arach, trang gloves, maras, sojs

Obession and ars dul mephisto and coa or shako

Not sure about boots because of str req.

Either wraithsteps or horozons boots maybe.

Any better way to do it?

I think void wins because of the +15 magic damage

You can also reach 125 with meph book that gives -20 magic

Hmm so I should focus on getting a decent void knife. What skills is good on it except for abyss?

sigil death

What about siphon hex? Does that work with abyss?

It does

+3 abyss is must have
+3 miasma chains is the second best
+x sigil: death saves you 3 skill points
+x consume saves you 1+ skill points
+x bind demon saves you 1+ skill points (depending on if you want to be able to bind superuniques ofc... after patch)
+x hex: siphon is nice quality of life

My ideal void base is +3 abyss +3 miasma chains +3 sigil:death
My current void base is +3 abyss +3 sigil:death +1 consume

So best set up is

Hellwardens will
Enigma
Arach
Trang gloves
2soj
Maras
Void in 3 abyss 3 miasma chains 3 sighil death
Al mephisto with atleast 25 fcr
Not sure about boots yet
Cta on swap

For skills
1 sigil of death
1 siphon hex
20 miasma bolt
20 miasma chains
20 abyss

20 blood oat

1 in bind demon and rest of denon skills


Rest in entropy skill up to 14 at lvl 99

In the current patch, most of the abysslock damage is coming from miasma bolt/chains; abyss is just for crowd control. With your defilers up (one consumed), single target damage gets spread. So I'd look for a void base with bolt/chain skills firstly. Also, use gheed's wager, sling rings, and entropy locket. +1 chaos wraithsteps. Socket the hellwarden with a nice guardian's light jewel. Get a renewed magic sunder with -10 enemy magic resist.

If you utilize bolt/chains, this build is faster than hdin, on par with nova sorc, and not as fast as es warlock.
