Well experiences vary I guess, I got disconnected once early on then played like 8hours without a hiccup(well my ISP did the monthly reset shit since it was 4AM so I got disconnected for that too but unrelated to game servers). I had a couple of ocassions where I had to click on the zone 4-5 times cause it wouldn't open a new instance too, but never more than 10secs. So overall stuff worked fine for me. Honestly considering they were apparently getting DDoSed too, that's a fucking miracle. Most other games when they're being DDoSed no one can play at all.

I'm trying to use Ziz's spellslinger build, but there seems to be an issue with Desecrate. The skill works fine when not linked to Spellslinger, where it summons up a piles of corpses, but when linked to Spellslinger it doesn't do anything at all. Other skills linked to Spellslinger function as intended.
Edit: Yea, I didn't know each Spellslinger setup had its own icon to enable. Working fine now.

Risk vs. reward on Delirium seems to be much higher than last league. I have skipped it almost entirely while leveling.

I also skipped it while leveling but now in maps I always do it. Just rip alot. Alltough less and less as i learn what to watch for.
On another note i hate linking early league. just so disheartening sometimes with no pity timer or similar.

Damn already? I got burned out after Metamorph and I'm skipping the current league. Plus I'm having too much fun with Grim Dawn.

working for me. I just got it. Im not sure what is going wrong for you. are you sure you have each seperate instance of spellslinger active?
atm, im not sure on kinetic blast. it is an interesting skill. high scaling, high innate pack clear. the base added damage % then the spell damage at150% of its value. crazy...
But, the VD/Desecrate version. doubles up on pack clear imho. frenzy or PS might be a better choice,f or the better single target. or, alternative, a differant spell set. Kbolt for clear. and a single target dps spell.

So I’m rolling assassin and I’m doing power siphon as single target wirh kinetic bolt and arc/spellslinger as clear. I’m probably going to swap that to ball lightning. I think shaper gloves can roll slower projectiles. Should help with clear and ST.
Obviously stacking crit stuff and lightning stuff. Will have to see what the best type of wand is. Will need the wandslinger or whatever nodes for power siphon.
Kinda feels like a bow build which I’m kinda meh on.
I think the overall play may be low life and get ES on hit or ES leech. For now I’ll get a lightning damage leech amulet.

someone linked a jewel with Knock back on hit with spells. which woudl be killer for Ball lightning as well.
Mathil theorized an elementalist spellslinger with power siphen, quad heralds/golems, and arc. I was debating between the two for a bit. decided back on the side of necromancer though.

I'm doing something wrong. I was going with the Cyclone Impale Champion build but you level with Bladestorm. It sucks. I'm too squishy, my dps sucks, and I'm dying too fast. I'm only in the mid 40s but I'm thinking of trying something else, I haven't yet because I'm convinced I've got to be missing something / doing something wrong. Part of it is that I'm basically SSF (not spending currency for leveling gear) and my stats are rough but last league (my first) of the 3 builds I tried none of that shit really mattered until right around maps.
I tried switching to Cyclone / Impale Early but that hasn't helped.

From a design i like the league mechanic even in its punishing form. Just had to learn the hard way never to stop in one spot longer than a few seconds because it feels like every few seconds some corpse will explode or you'll get shotgunned by some volley fire from off the screen. But i wouldn't worry too much they will make it easier, they allways make content too hard and scale it back it seems.
My issue is techical, it just dumps on my fps and crashes a lot. And i haven't juiced my maps even close to max yet.

I've been one shot a few times for sure. That said most mechanics get easier as you progress more and gear up. It's cheap to put unkillable monsters in zones and yet again it's very hard to see sometimes.
It's ripped many hc characters already.
