Fire/Fire/Mace Build Review

[the mauler]

Hi everyone. I'm hoping to get some input on my final build-out for Ms.Inferno who is now 50. I have almost all the enhancements for the build except for some of the Superior Blistering Cold and Superior Defiant Barrage. I've started on the incarnates but would like any advice on those as well (I included the ones I thought looked good in Mids but will wait to finish till I see what y'all have to say) Any advice is greatly appreciated. Cheers!

Defenses looks good, it's how I built my early blasters because the 5% def from the superior winter sets makes it intuitive to continue building for typed defenses. You are softcapped even without agility so I'd take musculature for more damage.

 

You can drop a sting of the manti slot and replace it with the apocalypse damage proc to further up your snipe damage. you can drop the defense IO in combat jumping and put it into tough for the +7.5HP resist global unique, and swap the slotting of panacea and Numina procs. Panacea works as early as level 7 and health is an inherent.

 

Nowadays I've shifted from softcapping S/L/F/C/E to softcapping S/L/Range which incidentally also softcaps E/N. F/C isn't all that relevant and Range defense catches a little bit more than pure typed defense. Going that way will drastically change your slotting however.

@Nemu

Thanks for the advice. I've implemented the changes and am liking them. Could you go one step further regarding the defense changes, maybe with a build suggestion etc.? Would those changes allow for better damage slotting? I'm not adverse to respeccing to make the changes since I have several respecs available. BTW, thanks for all the other advice I've gleaned from your posts and am a better builder, player as a result! Kuddos 🙂

 

[Nemu]

There is this thread that discusses different approaches to building a fire/fire/x

 

There's the obvious defense route but you may want to consider your teaming tendencies and take a hard look at the build that dreadshinobi and beradical endorsed. It's a different playstyle for sure.

 

FYI I tried that approach for my fire/elec and discussed my findings here, but I still encourage you to vet it out.

 

 

As I said you'd need to reshuffle some slotting and change IO sets completely if you were going to switch from S/L/F/C/E to S/L/R defense. This is an example of how I would go about that. I don't care for hotfeet but other people swear by it.
