You can't even search for beast mods like that so they may as well not exist

The real issue is elemental hit has terrible damage effectiveness and relies on the huge added flat damage, which makes paradoxica almost impossible to beat for raw damage. I think the inversion idea is decently strong though, you probably just need to play smite or double strike or something...

I don't think you'd need to do the southbound thing outside actual ubers. The damage on a normal setup is gonna be more than enough for mapping and probably even normal pinnacles. I agree slayer is the much easier start. I'm trying to do this with a Rakiata's right now using all 4 purities +...

Did you go slayer? I've been messing around with different ele hit setups and can't decide what ascendancy I actually want. Slayer seems like the most straight forward for sure, but I think campion with big fortify stacking is maybe better lategame.

Yea Stormshroud is about as free as full ailment avoidance has ever really been. Ancestral Vision is also really good if you're suppress cause you can combine it with a single shield/boot mod + implicit, but it is often more expensive

No way to get the avoid shock on there no, not without using recombinators and a lot of luck. Best bet is craft a thing you want then use foulborn exalt to hit a big res You can hit 100% shock avoid on a belt though if you need to with stygian + essences and a big roll on an abyssal jewel

Also remember for Tujen if you just straight buy an item for full price (any item) he won't reject any offer on the next purchase, so it lets you pretty aggressively try and lowball him on stuff for a ~50% purchase price.

This is maybe worse than Sanctum was even. You could still clear them playing lacerate or whatever, it just kinda sucked and you needed better relics to do it. It may actually just be impossible for a lot of builds in the hives.

No, if anything it gets worse. Once you get to maps spend your first 5-10 chaos on buying a few grafts that have +25% blood found - it's the only way to even stay close to enough blood to use the sacks you'll find.

I was very behind the times on this FYI. I've only ever played base holy relic and had no idea this version existed that casts at range instead of a nova on the relics themselves: So yea probably play holy relic cause it's damage is utterly absurd.

It gets way way better as you progress as mob density just ramps up. Even still I feel like some skills are gonna struggle hard, because it's still clearing a lot of fuckin mobs in a very short time.

The relics also behave weird and lag behind you constantly if you move at all fast. Their AE is not that large. Too many weird abstraction layers causing delays between you doing stuff and the relics activating + being in range to kill stuff. And yea poison compounds it to be even worse.

Holy relic will never be a popular build because it simply sucks ass to play and isn't satisfying. By the raw numbers it's been one of the best builds for many, many leagues, and never hits meta share
