Lazy Merc Witchhunter build. 1 button clear build / 2 button bossing build

10

Made to be as braindead and lazy as possible.

For normal clearing and mapping, just use galvanic shards, voltaxic mark and witchhunter explode will carry hard. for bossing plasma blast is the starter that will delete over half there hp, and you than will instant stun and finish them off with shockburst

For bossing swap to plasma blast, and charge up while the boss animation starts and blast them the moment you can, than instantly swap to shockburst to stun and delete them, if they haven't died somehow, Repeat, if the boss is annoying and doesn't stand still, use galvanic to apply shock and than delete them with shockburst. If you really want to attempt to kill the boss in one stun cycle, you can use 2 dmg buff skills which will buff plasmas dmg and shockburst by alot.

IT IS IMPORTANT to only use shockburst when the enemy is shocked or else it does no dmg.

Skill set up: the support you should socket is in order too.

Clear/general use- Galvanic shard- lightning infusion- innervate - martial tempo- conduction- ammo conservation

Bossing starter- Plasma blast- scattershot- primal armament- close combat- hourglass- lasting shock

Stun/finisher- Shockburst- overpower- ruthless- concentrated effect- elemental focus- execute

Dmg Buff 1- Emergency Reload- premediation- persistence

Dmg buff 2- Ripwire Ballista- font of rage- font of blood- font of mana- ironwood- ancestral urgency

Spirit/Aura 1 and Map clear- Cast on Shock- Voltaxic mark- magnified effect- impetus- lightning mastery- energy retention

KEEP CAST ON SHOCK at level 9-11 depending on how much int you have, if you have 20 quality on the cast on shock you should be able to keep it at 9.

Spirit/Aura 2- wind dancer- vitality - precision

Spirit/Aura 3- Overwhelming Presence- herbalism

Skill socket priority: all skills aside from aura should be 4link. than prioritize galvanic than shockburst than plasma blast than everything else for 5link and 6link

Heres a video of day 1 a3 cruel boss kill- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zP8V5aEHqWk

Would have upload a tier 11 boss kill but i already uninstalled yestoday due to boredom. The gem setup i had in video was unoptimized or doryani would have probably died to plasma burst in both phase in one shot.

Ascendancy path- pitiless killer- judge jury executioner- zealout inquistion- obsessive rituals

Ideally you would want around 10-15k evasion when you get obsessive rituals which would give you a massive shield (2-3.5k depending on quality) for elemental damages.

Crossbow mod priortization- high amount of phy- Lighting dmg- projectile skill- attack speed- extra bolts- increased elemental dmg if you couldnt get another phy mod on prefix.

Dmg upgrades that arent your weapon: On both ring and gloves look for high amount of added lightning dmg and phy.

How i craft my crossbows: search for crossbows on trade look for magic only rarity. than on the button of each items there should be total dps and phy dps click on phy dps to search for highest phy dps magic bases and look for a 2nd good mod like attack speed (ideally 13%+) or proj skills (ideally 3+) than buy a greater essence of electric and upgrade it to rare and hope for a high lightning roll (ideally 1-60+) than exalt slam 3 times and hope for the best

BUILD WEAKNESS: enemies with shields, especially that one that shoots projectiles at you when you shoot there shields.

I'm restarting with a Mercenary but it feels pretty awkward in Act 2. I'm using Galvanic Shards and the clear isn't bad, but single-target is dire. What did you do until you acquired all the gems for your setup?

How good is your clear with this?

I'm currently just running frag and high velocity and just scaling physical and my damage and clear are terrible

recommendations on leveling skills?

Where do you get the int for cast on shock from? It didn't seem you run all that much on gear from the video.

Love the build!

Anyone watching the clips just take a look at his bow and realize you aren't getting that shit.

I'm sorry but what is Β Voltaxic mark ? Can't find it anywhere

MyNameIsBiff1

Excuse my ignorance if I am just being blind, but I cannot find "Voltaxic mark". Is this a support or a spirit gem?

Any op uniques for this build?
