Greetings, Builders! Today, MmoGah will show you three of the most played builds during the second week of the Settlers of Kalguur League.
1. Archmage Ice Nova Hierophant
Let's start with this super strong build that is being played by over 10% of high-level players, the Archmage Ice Nova Hierophant with the Templar class. This build stacks as much mana as possible to take advantage of the Archmage Support Gem that grants up to 19% of your mana as extra lightning damage. The skill of choice was the Transfigured Gem Ice Nova of FrostBolts, which deals a lot more damage when casted near a FrostBolt, and to make things smoother, we are using the Kitava's Thirst Helmet to cast the FrostBolts for us automatically.
Pros
Awesome clear speed
Destructive boss damage
Satisfying gameplay
Great survivability
Instant leech
Cons
Expensive
Needs mana on equipment
Needs a lot of cast speed
Budget
Now, talking about the budget, as mentioned before, this build isn't cheap. You need to invest at least 10 Divine Orbs to make it work.
Mandatory Uniques
For this build, you only require two mandatory unique items. The first and most important is Kitava's Thirst Helmet, which triggers socketed gems when you use at least 100 mana in one cast. This makes the FrostBolts need to be casted automatically for a lot smoother clear speed.
Next, we also need the Anathema Ring, which causes our curse limit to be the same as our maximum power charges.
2. Infernal Flicker Strike Ascendant
Now, we have a fast and strong skill that is being played by over 5% of high-level players, the Infernal Flicker Strike Ascendant build with the Scion class. The unique sword Oro's Sacrifice is used to maintain the frenzy charges necessary for continuous flickering. But that's not any of Oro's Flicker build. This one also chills and shocks enemies for a lot more damage, clear speed, and survivability.
Pros
Cheap
Great boss damage
Awesome clear speed
Good league starter
Permanent fortify
Ultra-fast
High armour
High evasion
High chance to suppress spell damage
Cons
Stays too close to enemies.
Little control over your character.
Budget
To clear white maps with 4 links + cheap gear: it needs around 90 Chaos Orbs.
To clear yellow maps with 5 links + mid gear: it needs around 150 Chaos Orbs.
To complete the Atlas with 6 links + good gear: it needs around 4 Divine Orbs.
Mandatory Uniques
We need two mandatory unique items for this build. The first and most important is the Oro's Sacrifice sword, which allows you always to maintain your frenzy charges even while flickering.
Next, we also need the Call of the Void ring that causes your attacks to chill and shatter enemies. This ring might be a little expensive during the first days of a new league but don't worry, you'll be fine without it while waiting for the prices to drop.
3. Toxic Rain Pathfinder
Finally, we have one of the best starters out there, the Toxic Rain Pathfinder with the Ranger class. This build uses the Permaflask and Chaos damage of Pathfinder to deploy many powerful pods that drain the life out of your enemies.
Pros
Cheap
Permanent flasks
High evasion and armour
Huge boss damage
Fast clear speed
Awesome currency and map farmer.
Cons
Has mana issues without mana rings
Budget
To clear white maps with 4 links + cheap gear: it needs around 100 Chaos Orbs.
To clear yellow maps with 5 links + mid gear: it needs around 150 Chaos Orbs.
To complete the Atlas with 6 links + good gear: it needs around 4 Divine Orbs.
