I love how you organized your video and how I didn’t have to rewind to understand your directions. Clear and concise, good job. And the build is interesting too.
@@lindariggo876 I've watched a lot of build videos and tried to avoid the stuff I found annoying. I also link the slides in the description. Feel free to refer back to those if you just want a quick reference.
Surprised that the Song of Flame melee procs the Necrotic poison as Felwinter's Helm does not (I'm guessing theres a difference between applying vs kills). Definitely using a loadout slot for this kind of build.
I'm going to try this with Witherhoard, Thorn and Osteo Striga and see which feels best. I'll probably try a void destabilising secondary and an incandescent heavy too
@@MrBlue522 I didn't think about it much. I don't consider it a DoT and it's kinda hard to upkeep to take up the exotic slot. I do sometimes play that in the Prismatic max buddies loadout thoug
@@RockerzUnite since this build avoids freeze there's not that much. Trace Evidence can be good for an occasional Ionic Trace. Concussive reload let's your GL weaken. Curative Orbs makes orbs on shield break. That's about it.
Would it be more effective to leverage the new IB stasis sidearm with chill clip for more slow freeze? Perhaps swap the facet of sacrifice with the facet of ruin for more ignition and frozen target damage. You could then leverage all the artifact mods that utilize stasis.
@@J_Blecha I'm not sure if you're on the right build. Freeze wipes poison and some other DoT effects. This build avoids freeze hard. Also Ruin is a 6.25% damage increase on shatters and just a range increase on ignition. It's fine but a little overrated
@@J_Blecha oh I did say it in there but it's pretty brief. There's still a case for freeze for crowd control in hard endgame content. ItsTizzle has a good DoT build with freeze.
Honestly I would love to use a build like this, but I am a hunter main. So I gotta try and figure a way to get this put together on hunter. I know spirit of gyrfalcon/actual gyrfalcon gives real easy access to volatile but then you're giving up your armor slot for just about anything else. I like gyrfalcons but I hate using "the meta"
@@alexanderolson4990hmm maybe run Gyrfalcon with Thorn, Velocity Baton, and a Strand heavy for unraveling rounds. arcbolt grenade with Jolt, Fan of Knives for scorch. That's 6 DoTs at once which is probably close to the max.
@EngineeeeerGaming definetely not a bad idea to use a weapon of sorrow, but youre forgetting that prismatic hunter has access to ascension which can just as easily if not more so apply jolt, which means you could use either duskfield or grapple grenade. Additionally silence and squall would also be a dot. So that should be up to 7
@EngineeeeerGaming yeah it really annoys me they haven't fixed that freeze wipes some dot. Like flavor wise it makes sense for it to cancel scorch, but for it to wipe sorrow poison and such is just annoying.
@@kennyparkes550 poison lasts for about 10 seconds and spreads naturally so you don't need to spam it completely. But that is interesting. I'll think on that.
@@KeithAichele-g3c nothing too crucial. - Concussive reload let's GLs weaken which is nice. - Conductive Cosmic Crystal let's your arc and void abilities do 5-8% more damage. And the stasis stuff mostly just fights the DoTs because Freeze.
@@jasonkustra5671 it works but it's not really what this build is about because it's the same poison as Necrotic Grips and we want more damage over time effects. But it can work in the meantime. If you want a poison weapon I'd lean to Thorn though over Osteo. Hand Cannons are just a little stronger now.
@@Bluedevil7213 kind of. They synergize with Necrotic Grips but the goal is stacking multiple, different effects because Necrotic melees and Weapon of Sorrow Poison do not stack.
Devo frag seems a little weak here, no? Dawn for radiant, assuming the dmg buff affects dots (applied and new), seems like a crazy dot n dip style gameplay.
@@mattieandjake I need to check that one again. Can't remember if the poison catches the syntho buff. But Spirit of the Necrotic does lose the poison scaling which is sad.
@agelesseon I'm not sure. You can get Volatile or Jolt there but you can get that elsewhere. Maybe swap to Vortex Grenade and run a Jolting Feedback Bitter/Sweet

Agreed
this was actually pretty fun. been stuck using stasis for a minute now just breaking crystals over and over with rimecoat.
I too have a specific playstyle I end up falling into for MMO's and it's typically HoT Healers. I completely understand the motivation for this build.
Nice video, giving multiple options on weapons, i do not own anarchy (i just started D2) so i use something else, build looks solid
Dude this looks like fun been wanting to play more D2
what an awesome vid keep it coming. we appreciate the work that you put into this
I am going to try out this build. Keep up the awesome vids and builds keep grinding
This build was so dope! 😮 thank you so much! I completely get it coming from wow and ff14 in the past 💪🤓
Pretty good build and worked well in onslaught. I enjoyed it with Graviton Lance and the stasis Glaive (Rake Angle)
Sub. A Great build. Always wanted a great DOT Build , saved 👍

Loving your work. Subscribe looking forward to your next video.
@@archie3313 it's already up! Put up a Titan damage resistance stacking buff build this morning
I have a blast furnace roll with kinetic tremors and firefly, would that work for my primary slot?
@@generalkenobi2088 yeah that's a solid kinetic tremors weapon. Make sure to enhance it to lower the activation requirement.
VS Velocity Baton can have destabilizing rounds.
Been doing this build with Thorn as my primary, just like making Blight bombs with it in addition to my melee
I'm going to try this with Witherhoard, Thorn and Osteo Striga and see which feels best. I'll probably try a void destabilising secondary and an incandescent heavy too
Did you think about using No Time To Explain or did it not work out as well as you had planned?
@@MrBlue522 I didn't think about it much. I don't consider it a DoT and it's kinda hard to upkeep to take up the exotic slot. I do sometimes play that in the Prismatic max buddies loadout thoug
Your video is absolutely fantastic! My only gripe….what artifact mods should I run to help benefit from this build?
@@RockerzUnite since this build avoids freeze there's not that much. Trace Evidence can be good for an occasional Ionic Trace. Concussive reload let's your GL weaken. Curative Orbs makes orbs on shield break. That's about it.

@ I am. I did not know that it wiped some of the DoTs. It’s a solid build for sure. Thanks for the clarification!

@alexanderolson4990 only thing to worry about with Freeze is it wipes some DoTs. But Ascension is a good Jolt applying ability.

use drogon breath instead of anarchy in solar surge activities.
While transcended, arc melee has 0 cool down and can be spammed infinitely. May be interesting to test with this
@@kennyparkes550 poison lasts for about 10 seconds and spreads naturally so you don't need to spam it completely. But that is interesting. I'll think on that.
What about the seasonal artifact will you get anything more from this build or no ?
@@KeithAichele-g3c nothing too crucial.
- Concussive reload let's GLs weaken which is nice.
- Conductive Cosmic Crystal let's your arc and void abilities do 5-8% more damage.
And the stasis stuff mostly just fights the DoTs because Freeze.
Gonna watch this fully later but would Osteo be a good choice for primary?

Was doing something similar with le monarque too
@@db1872 Le Monarque is a great option. Unique poison and you can get Volatile on it with Facet of Bravery.
Thorn and osteo striga work as primaries too
@@Bluedevil7213 kind of. They synergize with Necrotic Grips but the goal is stacking multiple, different effects because Necrotic melees and Weapon of Sorrow Poison do not stack.
very nice build but i use dragon breath for heavy which is also very good since i dont have anarchy
@@bravo1697 that's a good option. Maybe get one less DoT but the Hellion Scorch with DBreath makes more ignitions.
Devo frag seems a little weak here, no? Dawn for radiant, assuming the dmg buff affects dots (applied and new), seems like a crazy dot n dip style gameplay.
@@bcityy the 5s of radiant on Dawn is just a bummer.
And several buffs don't inherit the buff. But it's still a good idea.
@@EngineeeeerGaming like some dots do get the benefit and others dont? typical bungie
Do you have the necrotic bond with claw bond? It’s brutal
@@mattieandjake I need to check that one again. Can't remember if the poison catches the syntho buff. But Spirit of the Necrotic does lose the poison scaling which is sad.
What is that bond your wearing?
@@Ninheldin should be the most recent solstice Bond
Have you tried using witherhoard??
What DOT would you put in the heavy slot then? (Playing into the DOT fantasy)
@@metroman2287 I've tried it but it takes up an exotic spot and with the Echoes Area Denial GL you can get a similar effect. It does work though
@agelesseon I'm not sure. You can get Volatile or Jolt there but you can get that elsewhere.
Maybe swap to Vortex Grenade and run a Jolting Feedback Bitter/Sweet
idk about this consecration titan seems better
