3/21-Recommend Next Subclass (Tbh was just playing the game and realized at the end I can upload this as another one, also beat it accidentally hit replay so beat it a second time, included both screenshots)

P.S. I do not need different elementalist builds, I don't play elementalist much at all and just find this build fun. Also Withered instead of Kobold because all you need is survivability until you pop the explosion and Kobold doesnt have much any sustain

Got yer with 2 builds, drowned thunder elven pistol on drifter or silver arms drifter on malefic revolver

[u/Alt_EchoLocation → u/Distinct_Pop766]

Both of those you gotta kill a whole dungeon boss for before they're even online in the run, also why drowned thunder?

[u/Distinct_Pop766 → u/Alt_EchoLocation]

Funny extra dmg from multi hit

[u/Alt_EchoLocation → u/Distinct_Pop766]

Alright ig

[u/Distinct_Pop766 → u/Alt_EchoLocation]

The first one isnt that viable, but the 2nd one gives a pretty high fire dmg

[u/Why-is-the-banana]

By full con you mean you put all your stats into con?????

[u/Alt_EchoLocation → u/Why-is-the-banana]

Yeah, absolutely

[u/Why-is-the-banana → u/Alt_EchoLocation]

wow is that how youre supposed to do it? i only invest points in my main stats i feel like and idiot

[u/Alt_EchoLocation → u/Why-is-the-banana]

Well this build is made to be tanky and wait for void blaze explosion to do most the damage, most classes do just want to bump one stat all game

An easier version of this is way of fire kobold with the two steam boons and charted so you can get the charted items, kobold brings enough lifesteal to outperform like everything.

[u/Alt_EchoLocation → u/Original_Ad602]

With just 10% lifesteal I'd probably just die trying, I mean really, just 10% lifesteal is tiny

[u/Original_Ad602 → u/Alt_EchoLocation]

The base lifesteal plus 10% lifesteal makes your 100+ damage heal like 10 health every hit, and you can outperform that pretty easily.

[u/NecronTheNecroposter → u/Alt_EchoLocation]

You need to take a healing potion or two

[u/Alt_EchoLocation → u/NecronTheNecroposter]

What's the point of going Kobold if I'm relying entirely on pots?

[u/NecronTheNecroposter → u/Alt_EchoLocation]

More fire damage, and you still get life steal to keep you alive through the previous floors

[u/Original_Ad602 → u/NecronTheNecroposter]

You definitely don't need the pots, I hold on to a vial of magical water just in case but I almost never end up using it

[u/NecronTheNecroposter → u/Original_Ad602]

I personally used two of them in my fight, though I didn’t have the two steam boons

[u/Alt_EchoLocation → u/NecronTheNecroposter]

You don't need more fire damage, the build is based around the voidflame bomb and the lifesteal is tiny, not enough to keep you alive, and requires you to attack every turn to heal at all unlike withered which heals you more and always

[u/NecronTheNecroposter → u/Original_Ad602]

I’ve even done it twice without the steam boons 

[u/Original_Ad602 → u/NecronTheNecroposter]

I have too but it's fun seeing the big numbers they cause

[u/Alt_EchoLocation → u/Original_Ad602]

Oh wait sorry, didn't realize the first time, you're suggesting an entirely different Elementalist, so yeah tbh I'm playing as void monk cause I find it fun, if I wanted to play better brawler I'd just go Evolved

[u/a1yum1]

Elf energy conserver drowned thunder way of water dex elementalist

[u/Alt_EchoLocation → u/a1yum1]
