@@GoldfarmingGuideI find having one good resource on hit roll on my totem is enough for mana regen, my lucky hit is over 100 percent when I have a barrier though. Also max mana on helm. I am running ranks to chain lightning instead of resource on hit. Nice build, so much more fun then standard ball lightning and safer for high nightmare dungeons, bosses take a fair bit longer but every build has a trade off. I moved some points around from devouring balaze to chain lightning, I feel like it is better with maxed chain lightning.
So much utility needed for this build that it actually draws back from a lot of damage that could've been done, great alternate build. The firebolt that X'Fal's procs off a damage over time makes it lack luster. Not enough to take advantage of it, if there was, I'd give this an S tier. The LB enchantment only procs off a single target and makes it niche when it comes to boss viability. If there more DoTs this would be broken. Low -A tier imo, but thank you for all the theory crafting :)
I respect your opinion, but Did you take a look at any other builds then Ball Lightning? Like sure if you compare it with "Ball Lightning Boss Damage Only" Every other build is not even going to be a B-Tier. But honestly this build easily compares to all other "S-TIER" Builds just fine other than pure BL. And Pure BL is like 2 tiers above S. Also The X'Fals explosions actually do an insane amount of damage. Its hard to see, but If you recap these in slowmo, you will see that they proc for 2-3m damage very consistantly.
@@D.Spring944 Yep, pretty sure. If you think about it, what is the current endgame? Duriel, you farm whispers and helltides for that. All easy shit that most builds have more than enough damage for. I'd much rather have this build than BL where you have to rely on melee range. You cannot seriously tell me that a BL build clears that content faster than this.
@@MrHellweasel I been stopped farming duriel a long time ago and carry t100 with BL. With LS and CL enchant its fast af clearing high tier dungeons what you mean. Only difference between the builds really is one is manually casting CL. You can't seriously tell me you think BL is slow at clearing
Thanks for the build! is good to see someting is not pure BL. Do you think this build can compete in pvp? some advice in pvp changes on it? thanks for your work!
@@nguyenan00 ye but it's not ball orbiting around you, and you don't need to be in melee. I actually like the idea of the static balls popin everywhere.
Thanks for your comment. Yes probably like 50% of the damage still comes from ball lightnings. Im currently exploring if there is a possible lightning spear enchant version of this. I just dont feel the fun in playing pure BL. It's pretty unchallenging and pretty boring in therms of build crafting theory.
looking at my standard ball lightning build i can see i have 113% lucky hit on teleport. with the firebolt enchantment and xfals that would mean i have a 100% chance to roll the 50% chance of xfals on the ticking burn damage that teleport applies. im guessing there could be some fun to be had with occulus and raiment with that.
hey not really. Its using the lucky hit chance of firebolt and its also over the entire burn duration and not a one time trigger. So if you had a 100% lucky hit for a 50% proc it would basically mean every fire bolt enchant had a 50% chance to proc once during the entire burn duration
Something I can't explain and hope you can help me with ^^. Why is the cooldown of flame shield dropping so fast in the first few minutes of your video? 😲. It can't be only from ice blades right??? Btw it's called lightning spear (like in Britney Spears), not spair (like in despair) ;)
@@GoldfarmingGuide hmm, I've never noticed that affix, but I usually don't pay attention to the positive ones too much 😅. Anyway I think the CDR is visible in other dungeons as well. Does ice blades scale with attack speed? 🤔 About Britney Spears 😄 I think she was pretty cool 20 years ago ... but I just wanted to give you a hint for the correct pronunciation of "spear" ;)
its a rly nice build and i cleared nightmare t100 without problems. except for my amulet i got the perfect items for it. still, i think it feels a little clunky at times (especially in boss fights) because i do run out of mana occasinally, even with almost 100% lucky hit chance and the right affixes on my off hand and gauntlets. it would feel much smoother if there was a way around that.
Great guide! Very thorough. I do have a question for you though. In my current CL build that I'll be adapting to your build (because my damage is starting to trail off), I use the frost bolt enchantment to chill and apply cold damage as well as fire bolt for burning damage. Is there any reason why ice blades is better than frost bolt enchant for applying cold damage? Assuming I could deal with fewer ball lightnings than on your enchantment setup of course. It seems this would open up another skill to keybind as well. Thanks in advance!
Frost bolt enchant does not apply cold damage. It just chills. So you're basically just wasting an enchantment slot for some freeze. Also the least valuable option you have to add cold damage is a skill slot. A skill slot is basically not worth a lot, while an enchantment slot is the absolutely most valuable thing you have. Take ball lightning enchant, its gona triple your damage most likely.
@GoldfarmingGuide Oh damn, I assumed chill counted as cold damage. I guess it's just a status effect and not really damage (unlike burning)? So frozen is out too (was thinking about working Frostburns in since they have most of stats for the build). Thanks for your reply! I really appreciate the info.
Damn, apparently the resource regen affix is super rare... I spent 60 mil on some gloves and not a single roll. 😅😅 20 on an offhand and got zero as well. I'll have to keep an eye out for it in the future!
Looks fun, might try it with one change. I would go Tibults Will as on my Ball Sorc my damage ticks go from 190k to 300k plus per tick when its active. I am curious if the Ball Lighting is still the thing doing the main damage? Would it not be better to make lightning spear and enchant that for more stuns, crits and damage if the main damage is not Ball Lightning.
You can always use tibaults. I just feel like I dont need it and I want the extra defenses. In this build, main damage comes from xfals and ball lightning enchant. Lightning spears dont really matter damage wise, And I feel like I dont need anymore stun. Lightning Spear enchant could maybe work with max crackling and cameo build which is one thing I want to try.
@GoldfarmingGuide that's awsome I just got to finish watching the video this morning. It's definitely something I'm going to work towards for gear. It looks like a fun and fast build as a whole for NM and bosses
@GoldfarmingGuide once I saw the sorcerer ring I was thinking that it was a amazing ring, but I was not sure if the CL build would work without that mana regen aspect. I'm really glad you could work it into the build and I'm excited to get the gear to try it out.
@GoldfarmingGuide so I just made the build and in general for NM runs mana is not much of a issue. The issue I was having is vs bosses I run out of mana super quick and don't get it back very fast. I'm not sure if it's a gear issue or what, but with how quickly I go out of mana bosses are terrible for me lol
No static surge? That’s like the premiere node for CL. Don’t need vamp power to make vuln and takes a lot o mana pressure off. Then you can use infection with anticipation, no need for curse.
Its definetly too slow to apply vuln. It will take 2-3 Seconds to apply vuln in larger aoe scenarios. Definetly like the Curse variant much more here. I tested it it helps a tiny bit with mana, but I did not have a real good use for the board in this build.
@@GoldfarmingGuide bruh! The cameo is soooo bad. Like 15% chance. Its not even boosted by lucky hit. It’s just fixed 15%. I tried it and it LOOKS amazing when it pops. The damage also Looks amazing, Amazingly AWFUL that is.
@@GoldfarmingGuide Also I have a request. Can you test if ball lightning actually gets affected by attack speed with accelerating aspect or not. And if it does does it make much of a difference compared to having regular damage aspect. I did it on test dummy and i am not sure at this point how good or bad it is. Sometimes accelerating aspect works way too good and sometimes it just does regular damage. It’s so inconsistent that I can’t determine what the results are.
@@ryan_gaming_hub Not going to touch ball lightning. There is 15 million guides out there already :D And min maxing ball lightning damage is totally pointless. Im using accellerating to cast chain lightning faster, not for the ball lightning ticks. Also I do not have any other regular damage aspect I can use. In general I pretty much dont use other damage aspects as storm swell and conceited since they are underwhelming in my opinion.
Well easiest way to farm Items is too do as many world bosses as possible, and then do Varshan/Grigoire in 4-Player Rotations, then use the Mats and do Duriel 4-Player Rotations. You will farm an extremely hight amount of items. Also if running nightmare dungeons, only pickup gear pieces you need. - Never pick up weapons/armor. You only want to get those 925's from World bosses and Duriel - Never pick up Boots (you are running uniques anyway) - Gloves I usually do gambling with Obols from Helltide-Events
I've read somewhere that accellerating aspect is bugged on amulet and only gives the 25%. I did absolutely not confirm this, but you might want to test it. Would be a sad waste if it's true, but again, I just read it somewhere on reddit, could be total BS.
@@GoldfarmingGuide I can verify this is false and amulet is giving the correct AS buff for accelerating. I simply compared an amulets bonus with a wand bonus and the tooltip indeed showed the correct increased buff. People are really bad at testing in Diablo because their experiments are usually flawed or tainted by factors they aren’t considering.
@@GoldfarmingGuide Ok. After extensive testing of seeing how many attacks I could get off exactly during UC (ravenous turned off) I got 23 with accel 24% on weap and 25 with accel 35 on ammy.
@@montanaSD xD So I guess it works. Thanks for your effort. Probably that rumor just exists because on Maxroll amulet did not show increased stats for aspects (not sure if they fixed it already)
Everyone said able to get recharging aspect from Zenith dungeon. But on my zenith dungeon not showing me legendary aspect. Is blank, am I missing something?
you can always use it, I just dont see a point other than sacrifice a lot if defenses for some extra damage. The mana gain wont really matter for this build
in this build it comes from lucky hit on gloves and focus + crackling energy only. If you sturggle you can switch a board to static surge and get the legendary node to fix it.
There is no bug in Ball Lightning. It's Just overtuned. Will be nerfed at some point. But to be honest, ARGP you play the Build most fun. It doesnt have to be overpowered. I think its healthy for these kind of Games to have overpowered builds.
@@GoldfarmingGuide no it’s bugged bro… the attack speed is only meant to increase lucky hit chances not damage… the damage of each tick is meant to decrease with attack speed, but the bug keeps it the same….. that means the base damage is able to increase 300% and then everything triple dips on that 300%… so it’s doing near 1000% more dmg.

Feels great so far, Much better then without tal Rasha :D
Great updated guide. Was struggling using the previous guide on how to mantain my mana when we are using 2 unique rings now.

You really should be using a dagger dude... free 30% is OP.
Its a lucky hit build
first yes lucky hit is far superior, second 30% additive damage really doest end up being more than like 2-3% damage increase
30 additive is crap and LH is key and you don’t want to be close all the time.
