Replace dragon shield by dream. (Probably a typo?)
Replace dungo by SoE.
Everybody needs enigma, coh is bad.
Better self-use conv, you already reach max zeal speed without fana, you don’t need the ar it gives either due to the -def from conv, so the lil extra dmg of fana is worse than going for more -res and unlocking a better merc.
You can use 3/10/20 scs, you’ll still hit 95% hit chance due to conv.
400/32ias 15ed/0ar grief will give you the exact same result as a perf one.
451 psn scs has no use on that build.
The merc setup you mentioned has no leech.

With that setup running self-conv, you can then run an a5 frenzy merc using 2x cmoon. He’ll deal 10x more dmg than an infinity merc due to static proccing with -70res and lvl 25 conv. He can practically out-dps you lol

Or you can run a a2 might reaper merc.
Both are good.


2 dreams, nty
Coh is more dmg
Max zeal speed is not reached in either of our builds mentioned
Extra dmg from is better not worse
451 works on baal heralds etc
You have no idea, you cant critique my build

If you go 1x Dream + 1x Dragon, then you get
1x lvl 15 HS + 1x lvl 14 HF

If you go 2x Dream, the you get
2x lvl 30 HS
Which is approximately 2.3x better, but also saves you 20 skill points and allow you to optimize a single type of elemental dmg with -light res

CoH is not really more dmg…
Its 200 / 100 / 0 %ed vs different types
Enigma is 74%
And anyway this is an hybrid build.
But that’s really not the point here…
Have you heard about… teleport? 45% frw?
Literally half your clear speed is based on mobility.
Swap enigma for coh and suddenly your build is 50% as good.
And you suddenly can’t even play in team anymore.

Max zeal is reached.
https://warren1001.github.io/IAS_Calculator/?data=5-0-Phase_Blade-0-0-None-0-Zeal-1-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0
72 ias = max zeal speed using PB
Like I said, you don’t need some expensive perf grief… just 32 ias
You get 20ias from Loh, 20ias form HL -> that’s 72ias.
Your build has 80ias + fana, don't tell me its not reaching max lol

"451 works on baal heralds etc"
I have no idea what you mean.
My guess is that you think this will prevent monster heal?
Regen is stopped for 8 frames whenever dmg is dealt. There is no regen while you zeal a target.

I’m not critiquing your build. I’m trying to help you understand the basics. You decide if you want to learn or not. It’s free.

Cuz you’d deal way less dmg with 1x lvl 15 HS compared to 2x lvl 30.

You can use griff on a self-shock build.
Very different, more light dmg on zeal, but harder to get proper sustain.

Okayy so in the build where we dont need dungo or soe bc we have 3/10/20s, oak sage, pushing 6k life, we would use razortail?
