Curse

Having a hell of a time killing those torments. I am using SF, DC, GOS, MS, Bed of Coals, Lava Font, Inferno, Flame Djinns Haste.

My HP is about 600+, and Energy is at about 75. Using a totem axe for 20% enchants.

Problem is my SF ends pretty quickly do too recent nerf of SF, however on youtube I see some about 6 months ago keeping their SF on them for a long period.

Are they using a conset of some sort? How do I keep my recharge time high enough to kill them?

Btw I am looking at this video and getting an idea of what they are using.

I think you have to use an event consumable that raises your attributes so that SF lasts longer.

Would probably help if you use the same build as the guy in the video. Mindbender obviously plays a huge part in getting all his skills off in time.

He's using:

Mindbender
Shadowform
Ebon Battle Standard of Honor
Meteor Shower
Bed of Coals
Lava Font
Breath of Fire
Frozen Burst

He likely has a high/max Lightbringer rank too.

EDIT: He also has max Asura and Vanguard.

recent nerf? recent must be quite a time frame to you

ebon vanguard battle standard of honor is a must have in this build or the damage reduction from shadowform will completely negate the effectiveness of this build.

So you suggest cons in this type of farm?

Need to kill the enemy faster, too slow, and can't kill fast.

perma sins work because they use 2 skills to reduce the recharge time and a staff of enchanting - we only gain 8 secs which means 22 secs becomes the 30 secs to match recharge and thats at 16 sa
As your using e/a you need as other stated to boost sa - consumables will help raise sa but your also then hindered by the -33% dmg from shadowform.
The old shadowform had no dmg reduction then it went 50% dmg reduction then down to 33% - even with earth raised past 16 your going to do less dmg.
One suggestion may be to find a different ele build which im sure there is a few around for farming in Doa.

And shaodwforms been nerfed for ages - youtube vids are nice to watch but you have to consider both their age and any skill nerfs done since - eg w/rt core farming - nice to watch but totally nerfed now.

Ya, I am surprised that this video was done 8 months ago. I noticed hes doing 96dmg to foes and taking them down quickly.

I noticed that most of the builds on pvx are outdated or don't work like they should. I think your better off making your own build.

The edit button isn't there to look good: use it - Marty
