good vid. I was running swift for ubers/feared farming cause shaper mob phase and running to uber atziri. definitely would not use swift for sanctum as you concluded 👍
At 7:11 when u start running a lap around the trap room, how does ur con ground time keep refreshing? I find when I move around like that my timer will tick down and if I do it for too long I'll lose the regen effects of con ground on my life and es
@@az_charlie ah gotcha. I was curious do you have any thoughts over the different ascendancys and which is the best for penance brand? I see a lot of assassins and inquisitors so I was wondering which ascendancy is better
The reason to skip swiftbrand with PBoD in favout or other support is to have more brand uptime when it mappers - after it reaches 20 stacks. With swiftbrand support it's possible to not even reach 20 stacks, and pob doesn't account for the ramp-up time, instead if reports the damage as if brand always had # number of stacks.
it depends on your dps really , vs bosses its faster ramp and you phase faster its worse if your brand doesnt phase within duration ofc but then its a dps issue
swiftbrand is good for penance brand of dissipation because it accelerates the stack building. It's good if you don't have enough damage to kill everything on the first few pulses, but have enough damage to not need the full duration after reaching 20 stacks, because it allows you to build stacks faster and deliver the damage faster.
Yep, that's why I said to drop swiftbrand only if you have high cast speed! If you have high cast speed you can recall the high-stack penance brand multiple times before it expires since it will last longer without swiftbrand
@@az_charlieI think in the new patch they changed it so the stacks are on the monster not the brand, so on every monster you have to build from scratch.
Dreamcore did a video, where it may be possible for the brands to last an entire map, you just cast them at the start of the map. This was possible in Delirium league. Its a semi auto-bomber play-style, unfortunately GGG nerfed it.
mate is the definition of high cast speed? Cast speed modifier of - 130% ? 180%? 210% I just switched to Efficacy supp from Faster Casting and the mapping speed didnt change whereas the cast speed modifier went from 180% to 135% Now I am confused
Faster casting is a good link if you need it, I definitely wouldn't swap to efficacy. However, since the mapping speed didn't change, it sounds like you don't need it. As for cast speed, my current setup has 192% increased cast speed on stormbrand. I would say anything over 100% and you're fine to drop swiftbrand.

Few legacy pieces because I'm in SSF standard. (staff, helmet, flask). But the concept is the same
Yo that brand attachtment range wild,nice stuff man!

flame dash, casting a brand, and sometimes when you turn a corner your character will "stand still" for a millisecond and get the buff back

@@mas0ny149 i think assassin better with low budger, inquis at higher budget
@@az_charlie mind if I ask why would inq be better at higher budget?
@@mas0ny149 Has room for way more brand attachment range. Assassin is pigeonholded into badge of the brotherhood and power charge/frenzy stacking

pbod resets stacks when switching from mob to mob, so it will never reach 20 stacks while mapping, most monsters are getting oneshot anyways

Yeah, I remember that build, it was giga busted. Hope they bring that back!
Any chance you could share your PoB? This variation looks real sweet

how many cast speed u will define as low?
Aim for like 100% to drop swiftbrand
