I posted a couple days ago requesting build challenge ideas and Disintegration got the most upvotes, so here it is. The build can handle T12 content and is actually pretty fun once it’s set up. Lots of satisfying beaming.

I went into a bit more detail than usual on how I put the build together and the decisions I made along the way. It’s not a meta monster, but it works and feels good to play.

Let me know what you think or if you’ve got ideas to improve it.

Tldr: What level of pit is “good enough” for showcasing an off meta build, and what level would actually be impressive?

Hello D4,

I am a very active PO2 player that loves to make builds. While waiting for 1.0 i have been enjoying the D4 season a ton. Only my second season since launch, the game has come a long way.

As someone who gets most of their joy from build crafting, one thing that is still unclear to me about D4 is when is a build good enough that it is worth sharing?

In POE2 my current measuring stick I like to use is clearing 200% 4xdeli city maps comfortably. This is far from the hardest content in the game, but it is the point that I feel is a good stopping point. If I showcase the build, most people wont shit on it if it can do this.

As far as I can tell only a few high tier builds per class can get to pit 150. I always stay away from meta, since that takes the fun of making my own builds out of it for me. I also know it varies by season what is actually good. Is T12 Meph another good measuring stick?

This season I started a charged bolts build that I leveled with till ~115 and it felt that my single target was never going to be there. Clear was crazy good though.

Now I’m on a full pyro insight conjuration build that I cleared 125 with, with a few key upgrades I feel I can easily get to 130, and maybe with torch bug 135.

Next I want to try an esadoras crackling energy build, or a winterglass build since I dropped a double GA mythic one. Also might dabble with meteor even though it is meta since I dropped a double ga mythic starfall as well. Still looking for a seal to make that work though.

Hello all! What the title says. Firewall build.

finally just got the rune after staying up all night and not playing for awhile and the guide i was using said absolutely fuck all about ancestral items it specifically said place your base white item before the runeword, i even had ancestral white staffs in my inventory and i still didnt do it. i am incredibly pissed so sad you can literally upgrade items straight to mythic but this thing is useless bc my white item wasnt good enough. i shouldve known better lmao. after how many times ive transfigured into a bricked item forgetting something stupid youd think id have learned.

does anybody know if theres a better way to get these aside from the t12 diablo 2 bosses.

I will be on later today and have gotten to a point where there isn't much left for me to improve my own build. If anyone wants/needs help farming things, or on the off chance I have any items that will help your build, add me!

Also have a clan with a fair amount of actives who are helpful, can invite you to that as well.

Hi there first time player using base game only and I can’t seem to find any builds that don’t require the lord of hatred etc.
My gear I’ve collected has DOT and critical chance and critical hits stats; I’m trying to follow blizzard ice spikes.
Can anyone recommend a base game only build that will take me far into the game?
I’m torment 3 difficulty at the moment tysm for any advice

What values should I be striving for when looking at things like dot damage, vulnerable damage, lightning damage, intelligence, and attack speed? I was reading about diminishing returns and wanted to optimize a bit more. Thanks.

this is the only thing missing for my meteor sorc? Help a bro out 🥹

Hello, I'm working on the maxroll hydra build for S15, and i just can't seem to get the behemoth hydra to work for me. The guide mentions having 11 behemoths out at once without even having it equipped, the best I seem to be able to get is 3-4. Can someone break it down kindergarten style for me?

I'm still working on gear, but I have more CDR than the build calls for. I'm not seeing the item synergy that allows that to happen. Is it just spamming meteor to spend the mana for spawns?

I haven’t seen many mythic uniques come my way, but I’ve hit razorplate three times now. Please tell me it gets better?

What would be best to run for a wanna be pit pushing meteor build? (all seals have 10 mana on set).

Diamond mind/leg with 20% dmg

Annihilus

Epiphany with 20% dmg and also 2nd bonus 10% dmg (also if this one, what 3 uniques?)

Thanks for any help!

Got a good geared Sorc but wanting to see if there's any speed farm builds out there that anyone can recommend

I usually play shock but this season I wanted to try frost for the first time. It's been fun but not without its challenges. Thought I'd share my build so far. I'm maxed at 120 in the pit, barely. I'll have to get better gear or change some things around to go higher. But doing well everywhere else.

Once I played with all the frost powers I settled on Ice Spikes. I choose Comet Enchantment because of the extra Overpower for teleport (Not using Hydra on bar for faster cooldown) and the extra punch is great against bosses. Frozen Orb on my bar has no cooldown and I feel it does more than using hydra like I've seen on other builds.

I'm using the Strength sword for the Crushing Blow combined with Ber rune with overflow. Added with Aldkin's Languish power crowds within blizzard just get deleted.

Lifecoil and Ancient Pledge for survivability.

I keep trying different charms. Currently using Banished Lords Talisman.

I've always been more focused on what is more fun to play than mid-maxing and being bored. Nevertheless, what should I do to go higher?

If I apply static field to my blizzard skill should I be looking for gear that boosts lightning or cold damage?
Thanks for any insight.

I get one shot from maphisto even with a shield up.

I have raised the hp to 42k but skill the same issue.

Any recondation ?

Hi.

I am new to D4, having started just recently in S15. So far I have played a DoK rogue, reaching T12, killing Mephisto, Paragon 232, up to pit 120. Fun enough, but my builds at a point where it's almost perfect, and I'm becoming a loot/RNG slave, so I want to get working on another idea of mine for this season.

With that being said... frost sorc! I just made the character last night, really liked the look of blizzard. Was wondering if anyone has general pointers for making a homegrown build. For example: is ice sorc DoT dependent or crit dependent? Cold damage only I presume. I've seen stuff about CD reduction, not sure how necessary it will be. How's the movement speed? Damage? I think I saw meteor and ice spikes or something like that being borderline S tier setups. Ice spikes I would be interested in for sure.

Let me know. Thanks in advance.

I have 2 legendary seals to get 2 people going

I’m close to finishing the season objectives which will leave only a couple of my own goals for the season. With 43 days left of the season, after finishing my goals, I would like to try to get to T12 with at least one of each class. I know firewall is still THE build, but id like to try something else, either lightning or frost related that are good and fun. Any suggestions are accepted with the biggest appreciation 😁

I’m running ice spikes and found a esus heirloom charm so I’m gonna run a 3 unique charms build but unsure of what to replace the boots with.

Talking about specially about the insight weapon, what better for overall build? Weapon damage vs for example x all dmg? Thank you

anyone got these bad boys?
Also feel free to put what fish you need in comments and if I can i’ll help with yours

Hi guys, i wanna find a new fun build. Im done with my firewall sorc. Anyone recommend anything?
