Hi everyone. I'm rather new to seasonal D3 and have never made it this high in a season before but I've hit a wall. I've done my best to maximise gear stats etc. Am i just too low in Paragon/leg gems? Not enough Ancients?
I've tried also running the black hole and glacial spike combo but that makes it even worse. Can someone let me know what im doing wrong?
Without Aether walker - I'd drop Teleport and go with Black Hole. I'd then switch Frost Nova with Blizzard - Frozen Solid and then maybe swap out Nemesis Bracer with Ancient Parthan Defenders or Ashnagarr's Blood Bracer. Mind you - the black hole set up is very slow as in you're not teleporting everywhere. Hence why you need Blizzard to freeze all the enemies so you can get around them and then cast black hole once archon is ready to capitalize on the Spellsteal rune.
If you want to use Teleport - I'd then go with Aether Walker and In-Geom combo. And still stick with Nemesis Bracers and the rest of your current ability setup. This setup is great for Speedruns.
Hi there, I took a look at your profile here, and it seems like you're problem isn't that you lack damage or that you have to much CDR, but that you have approx 400k total Life, generally speaking even with Force Armour and Deflection, you're basically going to take 3 hits and die. The bigger your health pool, the bigger your shields/absorbs.
Also, I see your follower has no items equipped. Your follower is a huge part of your solo pushing as it can add 85% raw damage, and give you more procs on Mandald while also CCing mobs for you, giving you more survivability.
Skills - Swap Frozen Mist for Blizzard - Snowbound. It's a spender which means it contributes to Obsidian for reducing the CD on Archon, while also giving you a quick CC on mobs that could potentially kill you (leaping mobs).
Items - Gamble Rings and hope for a better Mandald, and reroll regen on your belt to %Life.
Cube the starfire for a pig sticker main. Sultan of blinding sand and wyrward for your follower with whatever the relic is that makes your follower not die. Make sure all of the followers skills are CC centered if using the sorceress. And enchant all her items to favor cool down red so she can spam. I can't see the specs on all your gear, but you're gonna want a fazula that starts with at least 48 stacks, but 50 is gonna be your end goal. And if your name aren't giving you 20% lightning skill then reroll it. And to push past the early 80s you're gonna need all augments to be 80+. I'm pushing early 80s without augments and my cdr was around 58% with gogok last I checked.
