Forum Link Code:[url=]N-Me Suffering Spiker[/url]
This build is used to create a large spike in only a few
seconds, while using common skills so an opponent suspects nothing!
It was designed for Nog64's contest (see bottom)
Attributes and Skills
Equipment
- An Insightful Accursed Staff of Fortitude with HCT of Curses
inscription will do nicely.
- Also bring an Accursed Rod of Memory with HSR of Curses and
Energy +5 (while above 50%), with an Accursed Icon of Aptitude with
HCT of Curses and Curses +1 (20%).
- For armor, bring full radiant and the max vigor rune you can
get, along with several Attunement runes.
Usage
Cast the four hexes. Use the Mantra of Signets along with Signet
of Suffering twice, since it recharges instantly. Use Accumulated
Pain for some small damage and deep wound to help finish them off.
Use Sig of Lost Souls as a heal and energy management tool. If the
Mantra or SoS are recharging due to previous fights, you can simply
kill with your -10 degeneration.
Counters
- Hex removal and Signet/Stance prevention can be a hindrance, as
you will not achieve maximum damage.
- This build has an unsightly 20 second cool down. Any enemy
build which takes advantage of this will be well rewarded.
Variants
- You can use a different hex chain, focusing more on damage,
degen, or self preservation whichever may be your preference. I
like to use this build as it helps to both annoy and limit the
effectiveness of others. Some examples...
You can feel free to move the attributes around a bit for more
effectiveness in these builds.
- Some ideas for another skill in place of Sig of Lost Souls or
Accumulated Pain:
Resurrection Signet
Drain Delusions
Shatter Delusions
Rip Enchantment
Envenom
Enchantments- Extra hex
