1 - Activate Ravager to consume Vigor to heal yourself (note this will hurt til it's cooldown is over) 2 - Spam Scourge for damage 3 - Vortex enemies into a pile 4 - Use Stinger to apply Vulnerable (this also heals you for spending resource and hitting Vuln enemies) 5 - Activate Armored Hide to give yourself max Resolve and more block 6 - Activate Toxic Skin to detonate the poisons.
I've been doing this similarly with the aspect to extend focus skills by using rushing claw. And I've got just enough cool down for scourge to always be online and with rushing claw it's highly mobile with soar and hunter Edit: I have a GA lucky hit to make vulnerable instead of using stinger to apply vuln
I've been doing something similar. I hate using Jacinth Shell, so I've been using Seeker with Intricacy to reset cooldowns. With extra Seeker charges on jewelry, it's pretty much up all the time. It allows you to spam your skills. It also applies Vulnerable, opening up more options on gear. Also, since you don't have to build around losing life, it opens up the ability to swap Ravager and Stinger for Razor Wings. Razor Wings spiral out and if you have high crit chance, you can constantly proc Noxious Resonance with it.
I'm building your build and I'm having a lot of fun. I didn't want to play with these meta builds, so I loved this poison build. I wish it had the devourer, it would be really cool, but overall perfect. Thank you from Brazil, Rio de Janeiro. Hugs.
Montei as 2 build meta de penas e não curti nada... sei la, pra mim não funcionaram... aí cheguei a criar um mago, mas antes de upar de fato, decidi procurar algo totalmente diferente no youtube, ja q as outras eram todas a mesma coisa, só mudava a skill principal... e essa aqui eu curti demaaaais! Ainda tá jogando com ela? Conseguiu q resusltados? Comecei o tormento 4 agora... espero q dê pra fazer a lilith com ela, porq percebi a o single target é complicado
literally just last night got my next alt to 60 and started putting together a scourge build and didn't wanna have to use one of the unique weapons. Then i see this today! perfect timing I always fuck up my paragon boards in some way, so this is gonna help massively!
I think you caught it in comments below and I see it in your build guide by Fell Soothsayer Aspect does the same thing as exploit glyph by applying vunerable to close enemies. Also Inevetiable Fate provides nice pops too without vunerable or Toxic Skin given the high damage add of Unyielding Hits aspect
Fun. Been toying around with it. I think it can be improved even further. For exemple, Soar for vulnerable and Rake with cooldown reduction instead of Stinger. With Soar, then it becomes a rune vs aspect decision to Vortex.
I’m traveling for my honeymoon and can’t play for another week but just stopping by to say we’re so back! Excited to come back and try this out if it’s not patched out. Thanks Don!
Love this interaction. Running a secondary character with scourge/thorns, creates a similar effect of enemies melting just as soon as you get them in the green aura (using the aspect that applies thorns damage to enemies that move). 100% armored hide, scourge uptime just via tempering. Currently starting torment 3 with a * 1ga razor plate as my only 8/12 item (thanks rawhide scarcity). And when I say melt, I do mean just melt since there's an animation bug where enemies dying to thorns just sorta fade off the screen without playing their death animation 😂 Oh yeah, forgot to mention that mine is an evade build as the biggest hits come from evading through enemies. This scaling off crit gives you that double scaling property. And since your weapon damage comes into play via armor, that also gives you some great scaling. My thorns build really just scales off of barrier and thorn count, sadly.
Also, if you are using Exploit and you have a good amulet with + to Apex (for those who don't have one with +Potent) on it, that is a good alternative too. Loving the build, been playing it since your first showcase video.
I might try this out! I just made a new SB build I have shattered vow and andarials visage trying to see what works with these 2. So far everything is being executed by poison but cooldowns is what’s messing me up and having to use a basic skill to restore vigor is annoying.
I rolled my third SB just to try this build and it’s pretty cool. I wish they would change the fear to immobilize which would make this great for those NMD farming runs. Great work!
I’ve been meaning to try something like this. One thing I would suggest is to use both jaguar in spirit hall for big dam also you’re running potent on your ammy along with armor is gonna make a huge centipede farts on your enemies. Try it out
damn... this looks fun, I have to try it. Also, my first mystic unique that I dropped was a Shattered Vow. I wanted to use it in some build. What you think would work with it?
I always had a heart for off meta builds. Last season I played blood surge minions by Macrobioboi, now I'm building up this. I switched from my first spiritborn, which is crushing hand, to this on my second spiritborn (yes, I actually made two chars), where I tried rake thorns before which sucked. I have no gems and glyphs, para 195, and I'm already blasting through t3. My hp sustain is nothing compared with yours in that pit100 clear though, I wonder what level of gear you must have for this. But I'm looking forward to build this up since I'm having a blast. Only regret I have is not naming my second sb exiled or Poe just for the lulz XD
midday hunt would actually lower your damage by a ton, we want to apply poison and pop it off with Noxious Resonance for huge damage, midday hunt makes poisons tick much much faster which reduces our pop damage
hey, thanks for making this very interesting build, i cant seem to find the reasoning behind the spirit hall choices, maybe i missed it? i only know you have to pick the ones that arent centipede because of the unique helm
@@DonTheCrown thanks for getting back to me so soon don, i have been deep diving into your build on my own planner and trying to really understand the underlying mechanics so i dont mess something important up while tweaking it to suit my own playstyle, since we are running menacing aspect, i was thinking i only need 100% uptime on scourge but i noticed that you are advocating for spamming scourge and getting it's cooldown as low as possible, does it stack on itself with multiple instances? because that would make alot more sense.
Tried it out. my crit dmg is only 1300%. i dont have optimal gear or full paragon, but is it rly that big of a difference ? it seems like im not using the crazy crit scaling.
I'm very tempted to try this one over Stinger-only.. (as an Alt, my main's still Eagle Quill..) I hope they won't mess up Crusader with offensive AURAS that will be like D2 and PoE Righteous Fire.. But hey, it's Blizzard, nothing can go wrong, right? We got a Quadrillion proof in numbers..
Oh! you the path of exile dude that does the voice over for the POE highlights / gauntlet when they be racing lol nice I thought I recognized the voice.
thank you so much, making this on the weekend. "We are using the bug for Redirected Force to scale our Crit Damage very high! Resolve Stacks = more block = more crit!" I'm not too fond of using a bug, can you help me customise this build in a way that would not use any exploits?
@@DonTheCrown Ah.... So I copied your build mostly but I took out viscious shield and put in bitter medicine instead and i mean it does work but it doesn't do much damage. I kinda hope they fix the spiritborn soon because I plan on playing it for season 7 aswell but your build is the most fun ive had in diablo since the witch doctor was released this feels very similar with the poison and green spew like acid rain = scourge kinda. :)
build is really fun. It doesn't really feel like RF, i would say, more llike D2 Necro poison nova mixed with D3 Pestilent swarm WD (which makes the build even better because rf is boring) What i don't like is bossing tho, If i clear pit80 in 2 minutes, it still takes time to kill the boss.. Also constant hp degen is a bit annoying on bosses
Hey Don, for some reason, I cant reach your crit damage at all... when I pop everything in the middle of mobs, I reach 9k crit damage max. My gear is pretty solid at this moment with all GA parts and masterworked as well to crit and poison duration. But 14k crit while you stand and do nothing? What am I missing? Thanks for answer^^ great to see someone playing offmeta things.
@@DonTheCrown instead of exploit glyph, you can try finding a glove or ring with an affix which has a lucky hit chance to vulnerable enemies. it almost always vulnerables enemies.
Wish we could fit somehow pestilent swarms in there, but would eat up 2 aspect slots lol... they do a lot poison over time and just look nice.. >< But other question, ferocity > passive heal? why not the poison aspect in spirithall?
Looks very good and fun build to play ! Good job ! Can anybody tell me how far get into a the pits with this build or maybe touch of death variant ?? : )
Since it's off meta, I suppose it's not based around exploits and bugs, so it's less likely to get nerfed or adjusted, right? I've been looking for a fun build for SB, maybe this is the one!
@@DonTheCrown I'm tossed some Ancestral Jacinth because the life gain roll was too low hehe. It is what it is. Nice build here! Might try it out for speed farm. Wish armory would get here already.
Any tips for fighting bosses with this? Keep finding myself down to 10% HP vs them, not regening fast enough, hah! This is even with using Stinger. Tend to run out of vigor so can't constantly spam it vs. bosses.
hmmmm, its only 750 but nearly max % wise. I thought part of the life gain was tied to killing tons of little mobs, is that wrong? I’ll try spamming Scourge more haha.
@DonTheCrown gotcha. So I took your build and added temerity, got rid of vortex, and replaced it with the hunter, going for "intricacy" where you can use a skill three times for free. It works amazing for adding scourge stacks. Since the hunter resets frequently, you can get an insane amount of scourge / toxic skin stacks. In place of vortex, I use chance to freeze on my gloves and put in the vortex rune. It's fun, but you run around with nothing but a barrier, as cooldown frequency overpowers health regeneration by a lot.
hmm I wonder if there is an overpower variant of this build with banish lords, seeing as you heal from vigor spent and you're constantly dumping and refreshing 250+ vigor. the 100% OP CR with Noxious sounds nice too.
@@FL1PEFF3CTZ it's any crit that can set it off, which toxic skin does for us with almost no effort. Think of the poisons as little bombs that any crit can set off. Nox itself is a white damage number and can't overpower.
@DonTheCrown In my build, I’ve used a similar approach, but I tweaked the mechanics a bit. I’m using Scorn of the Earth (boots), Aspect of Turbulence, and Aspect of Exhilaration. My Soar becomes a evade that creates a vortex (which ensures I always have vulnerable enemies, I’m constantly unstoppable, guaranteed crits, 20x increased damage, and a permanent barrier). Thanks to the bugged Aspect of Exhilaration (I have 0% lucky chance, but whenever I hit an enemy, my dash resets), I can jump around like a frog and avoid taking hits. I use Shroud of False Death for extra damage, and thanks to Intracy after my ultimate, I get several free casts to spam Scourge. If Hunter triggers a cooldown reset, it gets even better. I’ve managed to reduce my cooldown so much that I practically have no uptime on Toxic Skin. It’s awesome! :) Unfortunately we can't do trillons of dmg like smg's spaming missiles from quill voley but It's way more fun!
I think you'd be better off running a loyalty's mantle and double centipede spirit hall. Scourge and toxic skin cooldowns will be almost nothing and enemies will be 40% slowed as soon as they touch the scourge aura
love this, switched to it but im really confused how to do single target damage? i feel as though im missing something here lol if anyone could help i'd love it
stinger applies vulnerable when YOU are healthy, using it also heals you. Toxic Skin will crit every vulnerable poisoned enemy every second, so just keep vuln up, spam scourge and keep toxic skin and armored hide active
1 - Activate Ravager to consume Vigor to heal yourself (note this will hurt til it's cooldown is over)
2 - Spam Scourge for damage
3 - Vortex enemies into a pile
4 - Use Stinger to apply Vulnerable (this also heals you for spending resource and hitting Vuln enemies)
5 - Activate Armored Hide to give yourself max Resolve and more block
6 - Activate Toxic Skin to detonate the poisons.

Got an updated build for this with mythics? Thanks
dont think mythics are very good for this, check the written guide for why
@DonTheCrown In my build, I’ve used a similar approach, but I tweaked the mechanics a bit. I’m using Scorn of the Earth (boots), Aspect of Turbulence, and Aspect of Exhilaration. My Soar becomes a evade that creates a vortex (which ensures I always have vulnerable enemies, I’m constantly unstoppable, guaranteed crits, 20x increased damage, and a permanent barrier). Thanks to the bugged Aspect of Exhilaration (I have 0% lucky chance, but whenever I hit an enemy, my dash resets), I can jump around like a frog and avoid taking hits. I use Shroud of False Death for extra damage, and thanks to Intracy after my ultimate, I get several free casts to spam Scourge. If Hunter triggers a cooldown reset, it gets even better. I’ve managed to reduce my cooldown so much that I practically have no uptime on Toxic Skin. It’s awesome! :) Unfortunately we can't do trillons of dmg like smg's spaming missiles from quill voley but It's way more fun!
Can you drop link your version below this pls so interesting
How far can you push in the pit?
Really interesting.
would this be hc viable at all with the health bouncing etc
I mean he does mention not dying that much but that's more than never so I'd probably say it's not hard core viable.
you are pretty tanky however if youre not paying attention suddenly you're half health and need to spam stinger to heal
Could you do it without vicious shield?
Vicious shield and redirecting are just massive multiplier, when they fix them a lot of SB builds are going to be in massive trouble
@@DonTheCrown think you couldn't have said it better
How does Xfals work with this
it doesnt really sorry
what enables the potent skill?
what do you mean exactly?
@@DonTheCrown all good its the unique helmet. thanks for the build imo way more fun since i love rf.
nice one.
Soar vortex aspect helped me a bunch with this build when things keep running away since the vacuum effect happens before scourge can fear
Yeah I don't mind them running, you can even force two groups together like that in the pit
I think you'd be better off running a loyalty's mantle and double centipede spirit hall. Scourge and toxic skin cooldowns will be almost nothing and enemies will be 40% slowed as soon as they touch the scourge aura
Ive tested that and its much worse, plus you have to weave some Gorilla skill every 3 seconds then. Also Scourge slows 50%.
This reminds me of bunny on first descendant lol
Yeah just no annoying bunny laugh
love this, switched to it but im really confused how to do single target damage? i feel as though im missing something here lol if anyone could help i'd love it
stinger applies vulnerable when YOU are healthy, using it also heals you. Toxic Skin will crit every vulnerable poisoned enemy every second, so just keep vuln up, spam scourge and keep toxic skin and armored hide active
Can’t this be combi es with Touch of death for singeltarget?
not really but you're welcome to try
Ravager is not enough to keep you alive when there are no enemies around.
tap stinger for extra heals
Cant seem to push through torment 4 on this build. Not enough dps. Gutted.
But how do you get the crit cchance? you have 15%
Toxic Skin auto crits Vuln + Poisoned enemies
watch the video, he explains everything you need to know.
I created similae build with Stinger and pestilence with midnight sun. It is like scaling back and forth but didnt like the gameplay oh well
max pit level?
100+
