Wait what? Shotgun and DoT? WTH is this build!
A few weeks before 1.0 releases, I would like to present a Lich build that will most certainly be updated into a Warlock build. However, the build itself works amazingly well even without all the insane stuff coming with the upcoming Warlock class.
Concept: You apply the 3 curses , and and then spam your . The unique ability of modifies the skill so that each soul becomes an individual projectile, each one applying on-hit effects, proccing and on-hit effects TWICE. Why twice you ask? I'm glad you asked. You see, the bone curse proc counts as a hit, so each missile from procs the and nodes from twice.
With high cast speed and the effects of and , you will be shooting 11 to 12 missiles on average from . Even more if you're lucky enough to find good idols (see below). Also, this is one of the few builds in which a high-rolled can make a big difference. Yes, you read that right. As the build mainly relies on curses and DoTs, the "no crit" aspect is really not an issue. First of all, indirectly reduces the projectile damage penalty from . But it also applies to the damage procs - again, count as hits - meaning you will directly boost the damage of the curse (these hits can't naturally crit as they are described as damage over time).
Once you have the Unique staff, it's pretty easy to build around it by stacking cast speed and on-hit DoTs. Other huge items - but not mandatory - for this build are the addition of , especially if you can manage to stack and on hit generation and . These will be a huge source of ward generation and allow you to face tank most bosses in the game!
This is my first build, feel free to improve and modify it as you see fit. Credit is alaways appreciated ;).
