84 Cold Acid Flask Falconer - Corruption 100 | Last Epoch 1.1 Cycle 2 Day 1

https://www.lastepochtools.com/planne...

Update @ 94 ft. 1 t7 ring:    • 94 Cold Acid Flask Falconer - Corrupt...  

Gear 5:36

TIP: if you see any of the build uniques appear in a harbinger shrine, empower them twice. You could get 2 random crazy slams free. This means you’d need to kill it 3 times in total in the following encounters: 2 empowers and 1 challenge. If you die, they don’t disappear.

They raped our survivability via explosive trap: smoke traps and I can really feel it. It was broken and due. Only seeing 10-20 max dusk shrouds atm (without 8/8 shroud of dusk) but i've got low throwing attack speed. T7 frenzy roll on boots is the main source. I think the play will be 50%+ sheet dodge: dodge rolls instead of vit and other res where possible. 60% ideally but idk how hard that would be to get. Don't think any of the new 30 uniques work with the build, if any the chest that gives 20% damage red, we'd lose 2 ranks in several skills but it could be worth.

I'm sustaining trap by dropping 2/2 clustered explosives (+2 traps for extra mana cost) until I get higher tier throwing cost red rolls on my rings. You need rank 8 merchant guild to buy exalted gear (-4 cost, got -3 on rn) and they were going for 20k before. Insanely cheap. Only way to sustain it early. Chucked the extra 2 points in lightning bomb temporarily. Gone an experimental mana roll on the belt. It procs twice on manual flask casts including the falcon’s, giving you double mana back.

I'm using random idols i've found along the way. Health/health % is expensive. Might be stacking dodge here. TBA.

Prices (you need rank 3 merchant guild to buy uniques):
Frostbite shackles - scored lowest on market with solid rolls for 234k. Go for high frostbite duration (30%+)
Experimental mana on pot use belt - 50-150k
Throne of ambition idol - snagged for 50k. Next one up was 150k
Everything else - under 50k each, some free

Base 1.1 life build: https://www.lastepochtools.com/planne...
Note: a crystal wand is taken over Frozen Ire for the +60 mana early. Once you get T7 throwing cost red rings, swap to frozen ire. Gives more frostbite base dam even unslammed. Wand and all res blessing temporarily.

Cycle 2 changes:

BUFFS
Frostbite now deals 50 damage (from 36) 🤑🤑🤑 38.89% damage increase.
Alchemical Proficiency (the flask mana reduction node) now also grants 3% more damage per point. We normally don’t run it but it now gives 15% damage with a 5 node investment. Will need to lose some flask travel speed to max it though but that won't affect our dps. Also debilitate is our only source of frailty in the setup which is a huge defensive loss so might need to add that back and only run 3-4 AP.
Haste, Frenzy, and Immobilize can no longer be replaced by stacks with a lower remaining duration (e.g. a Haste effect with 4 seconds remaining cannot be replaced by a new one with a 2 second duration)
Snowblind: Now also grants chill immunity. Now also grants 16-24% more armor against chilled enemies. Now also grants 16-24% more armor against blinded enemies.

NERFS
Gustborne Guard ward nerf by 50%. “Gustborne Guard converts the health gain from Healing Gust to ward at 50% reduced effect (from no reduction).”
Smoke Trap’s chance to grant Dusk Shroud per second spent arming is now 30% (from 40%). It was due but still broken.
Fixed a bug where traps triggered to explode by exceeding the maximum active trap limit had an unintentionally high chance to trigger gaining Dusk Shroud from the Smoke Traps node. This is expected to significantly reduce the amount of Dusk Shroud stacks gained in typical use cases.
Frostbite Shackles: Now grants +1% ward retention per 2% uncapped cold resistance (from +1% ward retention per 1% uncapped cold resistance).
Snowdrift: Now grants 1% cold penetration with Frostbite per 10% freeze rate multiplier (from 2% per 10%). Nerf to all frostbite builds but we still get double cold pen from Knowledge of Immunity x Snowdrift.
