So i got bored and decided to try out some random things on my WD...
I wanted to make a pet centric build, so i popped into the GAH and spent about 50-80k and grabbed up some items and decided this would use the passive i never see used... Fierce Loyalty...
Got thorns upto 8000+ and regen around 1200 per sec and popped into Inferno act 1..pets got one shot lol...so i said alright Hell Act 3/4...the pets do not die, it was just so much fun actually
I could wander around and nibshit into anywhere, check out item drops, break all the chests open.. the Pets tore things up... Makes me really hope they get pets scaling properly for WDs... Got so sick of the non-pet builds for a pet class lol
I just stacked up a ton of Thorns and Life regen on every slot i could and then some crit/crit dmg and it is just fun...Anyone else out there got bored and just made a pet build?
well cleared Act 1 inferno easily with this spec... just boosted dps to 22k and got resists to 180-220 and can easily plow through Act 1...Act 2 is a little more work to progress but overall this spec is just fun lol
even if you stack armor/resists in every slot with other relevant stats (regen etc) pets will get destroyed in many situations starting in act 2. i was able to make act 1 ez mode except for plague pools. in act 2 it just doesn't take much for them to explode in half a second. there's too many things that players are suppose to avoid that they can't which deal enormous damage.
but act 1 farming isn't so bad if the build is fun
oh.... well im on the Kulle quest with the build right now lol.. as for the molten/plague the pets stand in that and dont die with my Regen now... the life draining dogs with 1200+ life per second just keeps them going np
Only time they die really is if the mob can 1 shot them... i die much more frequently then the pets lol
one thing that helped the dogs live a ton longer was the dps increase.. since they get life back based on your dmg (just like % life convert) so the dps boost i did made them much tougher... now if i was to have some very nice gear with say 40-50k dps and good amount of life regen and thorns... yeah im betting you could plow through the stuff in Act 2 easily and act 3 slowly lol...
Dont really see the spec making it through Act 3 though... the stuff just starts hitting way to hard per shot to clear it with pets...
But hey they did say they had a lot of buffs planned for WDs in 1.04 so who knows, maybe pets will scale with player stats then things get really fun lol
