I got a Mortal Drama yesterday but wanted to theorycraft a little before I try it.
We see alot of Holy, Fire and Lightning builds around but does anyone run a Physical build?
Does +Physical damage increase skills like Bombardment and Phalanx?
Besides bracers and amulets, not sure you could have alot of Physical damage on you gear so maybe that's why it's not really viable.
Also, noone seems to talk about the buff to Phalanx. With Bowmen and Lord Commander I was getting 2.5m crits. Not too bad, 4 bowmen shooting arrows (4 arrows every secs for 5 secs (approx?!?!)
Physical will buff most punish and sweep attack runes, and ALL bombardment and Phalanx runes. You could definately make a solid physical build with those skills Would jsut have to adapt your playstyle to suit it.
This is the physical build ive been trying out. Works rather well and i only have 35% increased physical dmg
When stuff get ontop of you . Pop law and unleash everything. Stuff goes down rather fast. Its not too potent without cooldowns tho. So i need to tweak it more.
The bowmen hit rather hard. And the sweep crits for about 8 mill per mob for me. Now i just need to get the mortal drama to make this complete
After some more testing. This build kinda sucks It kills packs rather fast as i said. But general rift speed is just meh
Did a bit of testing last night.... Phalanx is pretty badass
My usual build is a Lightning build, I decided to keep my primary and secondary as Lightning (60% damage on gear) but switch a couple of things and here's what I came up with :

With 875k in game dps, approx 410% chd, 0 physical damage on gear, each Phalanx - Bowmen was critting for 2.9mil
I was trying to see how many arrows 1 of the bowman could shoot during the 5 secs, I swear and I saw him shoot more than 5 (more than 1 per sec)
That's a ton of damage, the bowmen are up 5 secs, with a 15 secs cooldown (without cdr)
btw this build was tested in T3
i am currently testing out the physical build now. I have a problem with my resource atm.
This build require time reduction of skill and resource( using a reaper's wrap for fill up my resource).
I am still looking for Mortal Drama flail and which i have no luck on weapon so far =(
Currently am using "Baleful Remnant".
