I'll have to give this a try. To solo, I've been using Havoc with leeching as the third perk with runeglass of leeching jasper. Then leeching flurry on rapier for an emergency heal. But my main defensive perk is 5x grit ward with 300 con, so the damage output isn't great, but you don't have to think much lol. Going to have to find some new enchanted ward gear. Thanks for the cool idea!
I had solo'd these in light equip with Mjolnir/BB because they can all be KD'd/stunned, kill time would be alot faster.. the GS solo build shines alot more when you try solo bosses on Isle in EW for example. (Yes I also see that you setup is aimed for expedition tanking ^_^) And if you are actually solo'n those bosses that cannot be CC'd, you would be camping in GS tank stance and spam Rupture -> heavies anyways. Going SnS with a shield that has "Counter Attack" would up your damage by tons because it does activate when you block in GS tank stance via heavies - so between Serenity, relentless rush empower, counter attack (and if you wanna push it, jasper runestone) you would almost always cap empowered even in defiant stance. I personally skipped the ultimate in Defiant tree (blooddrinker is enough healing) and go for the CD reduction ultimate in Onslaught instead - makes Rutpure very spam-friendly at ~6 heavies per.
Yeah I think there's a few solo builds out there :) That's strange if counter attack on the shield is triggering when using the greatsword, sounds like a bug, I mean, feature xD
What are some replacements for Serenity? I'm not exactly trying to spend the next week or two doing pvp when I haven't ever touched it, all for a single artifact.
How do you get the purple attributes in like the dexterity into the character attributes... It says "item buffs" but I can't find the item to add it.... Returning player I'd appreciate if you can let me know it's driving me nuts as im 288 str, 125 dex and 146 con
So the purple is your attribute food (either +40, +44 or +48) plus any magnify gear you are using. If you are using lots of magnify pieces, in order to get the split, you might need to assign the magnify pieces to highest (in the drop down on left on attribute screen), then keep adjusting attributes bit by bit so it evenly spreads out the magnify across strength, dex and con.
Hey, I've never actually tanked the worm so not sure on the exact build. I know it generally involves tanking with a ranged weapon, normally bow, and a sword & shield for the scorpion phase.
@@AverageEcho Need DPS build (BB-GA- INT weapons for me personaly). But it's better for different types of weapons. Thank you again for your thorough explanations. This is very valuable for me as a beginner.
@@user-kj6hm1sn4b Your welcome :) For DPS builds, the key thing is to make sure your team has enough rend, by having a variety of weapons with different skills that apply rend. I don't think BB gets used too much for the worm. Rapier gets use a lot as its high damage, you could use Rapier and IG if you wanted an INT build.
Whats the point of this? From what im seeing your needing high end gear that requires a group to even get lol. So that you can solo mobs that drop worse gear than what you needed to do this to begin with? I appreciate the video but maybe im just missing something here?
Hey! So the main reason you might want a build like this is to allow you to farm elite enemies that would usually require a group to farm. A lot of artifacts (scorp sting, Lifetaker, Boltcaster etc) drop from open world elites that are normally hard to kill solo, but can be hard to get a group together to farm as most people who want the artifact have already got it.
Little dude walked into kephri and died instantly 😂

You could just use a normal greatsword with trenchant strikes, that's the most important perk. Could even pair with venom to add some extra damage :)
could you post a new world buddy link

Hello, could you show me the current build for the worm boss? (Devourer)

Can you still split 200str 200dex 200con?
I can only get 200 202 159…I’m missing a couple 700 gs but should be closer
Yeah you can, sounds like you might be missing attribute food
Ty…with a tribute I get it 😉
can i solo the worm with this?
It's good, but it's not that good :)
How does this work in pvp?
Not very well haha - I only tried it a couple times in OPR but it didn't feel great
@@AverageEcho looks good. I think it would do great in winter forge

dude doesnt need a dodge button lol
He's on heavy build anyways.
Solo M3?
Don't tempt me :P
Because of these solo builds, noone plays with others in open world to do sth together for pvp and pve...
