STRENGTH Stack, TEMPEST Strike, CROW Storm, BEASTMASTER - Last Epoch Build Guide (Experimental)

hello beautiful bastards the name is Wolf and welcome back to some more last Epoch I'm going to show you a brand new build that I've started working on today I'm very excited about it so we have a little bit of gameplay here we also have some dummy testing here to see how much the damage can really get with some very basic leveling gear still uh the numbers are looking very very promising uh but more about that in just a minute and then also we will go through the planner I have a bit of a grocery grocery list basically that we're going to deal with and maybe kind of adjust as we mature the character and also perhaps on advice of the people because there's a couple of things I am not certain about like for example as you can see we're using a dual wield setup right now but honestly we have so much excess damage already that it might be better to go with a shield for example and also I'm using Fury leap but what if I drop Fury leap and get a sixth Crow as opposed to five crows and perhaps I can use even the uh the crow traversal skill which is a wonderful thing there's a lot of options here but yes here's my character level 70 um we're going to do a little bit of basic setup we're going to start off with some Tempest striking soon as you can see we are using leveling gear uh I recently actually switched away uh mind you from the prism wraps the elemental level five chests I forgot about that we're using the woven flesh for the crit avoidance until I get the blessing but yeah the apog right here is a very nice pickup I had on the stream as well luckily hit the one in4 melee attack speed so we have an excess amount of Sonic but yes this is Tempest strike um very basic setup for tempest strike and as you can see it does already do a decent amount of damage and we can buff ourselves and our minions to do more crit and more cold damage we're still leveling that and then we could also jump for more spell and melee damage to stack that up as well and we're already seeing some wonderful numbers look at that a 300,000 it is insane how how this already adds up and this is without the armor shred and without even getting enough strength to hit that 50 threshold we have to hit this is some very early stuff and this is already the insane level of numbers we're getting now once the birds actually start fighting the birds themselves already do massive amounts of damage that skills as well then of course the stormcrow kicks in the Buffs are being applied by The Tempest strike and everything just comes together into this incredible cacophony of just absolute destruction while being surprisingly tanky because of strength stacking as well as of course the sustain the Beast Master gets that allows you to sustain yourself but also your minions which is very very good so yes let's talk a little bit about the planner and what we're going through um because this is the leveling gear that I had and the kind of starter gear but I want to show you what I am planning with the build moving forward so let me talk you through the plan of my build of my strength stacking stormcrow growing Tempest striking Beast Master I know the planner looks very intimidating I assure you it is not it's more of a grocery list but yes there are two mandatory uniques if you want to follow along with the build because even in terrible gear it's surprisingly sustainable and incredible high damage but yes uh the manator uniques are as follows the arter Legacy which is a very common unique so it should not be too difficult to pick up if we can pick it up with LP that would be great because then we can push strength hopefully that's the ideal and maybe some other great notes uh worth taking but otherwise strength is the primary one we seek we are also needing a Cleaver solution with melee attack speed preferably to begin with as you know I have that for my Shaman so that's just already something I possess and that is it those are the only two mandatory uniques I am not sure about the neck piece this was recommended to me but I feel like I can get more value out of a good crafted bone amulet especially since I'm still struggling with some of my resistances although I've also been told that I don't need to necessarily Cap all of them so we'll see how that feels but yes the Frozen eyes are for most is maybe with like a good health would definitely be worth taking but without the health I am not so sure if I'm comfortable picking this one up compared to let's say an exalted bone one but yes it does have some Minion damage it does have some good chills a minion freeze rate freeze rate per stack of chill some really good Synergy with our build but is it good enough who knows um what is incredible however if you want to dual wield the apog of Frozen light is absolutely insane for this W I actually do have attack speed an attack speed version of live on the live servers right now you can check my VOD on Twitch it is incredible there's so much damage behind here but honestly we already have so much damage to begin with I might also contemplate taking a good Shield um I actually leveled with a Shield I was super tanky never died everything died so fast I couldn't even get my Crow storms off half the time but if you want to pick up a shield it might also make leveling significantly um more at least not leveling but um gearing a lot more enticing not only do you have options for maybe some Weaver potential Shields or just some good unique Shields like maybe Bastion of Honor if you want to get more Health but what you could also do is actually make your own shield with the carapus base which gives you 75 poison rest just from the get-go which is insane um which of course makes it so you don't actually have to gear poison res on other pieces and since we already have such an insane level of damage it might be the way to go pushing for corruption to to 300 if not Beyond but we'll see how that turns out it's a it's a it's a matter of do you want to go dual wield for more damage or do you want to be more tanky and still do like a million crits right like it's say Greatwood Cod is probably the best for damage because it also gives us minion spell damage but since we are stacking strength and striking strength is really good for armor scaling it might also be worth considering maruna the Copus for the insane level of armor and some stun avoidance or ancestral guard for more Health but also increase cooldown recovery speed because we do need some cooldown recovery on our gear as long as we can get a faster swipe because we're playing cooldown swipe uh to trigger our storm throw it's going to be really really good also faster Fury leaps and war cries are always appreciated um speaking of things that are appreciated we are running double opal rings very much verbatim the same strength minion Health Fizz res poison res on both sides opal rings because all attributes and we are stacking strength but also coold down recovery very very good bass and Slot base no doubts about it we're running the predator and belt with minion damage minion Health hybrid health and percentage Health just a nice Health stat stick Eternal gaunlets wonderful base of course more armor more strength I'm thinking about adding minion damage here or melee attack speed or minion health I'm not sure what I want as a second prefix but yeah on the suix we pick up hybrid health and necrotic resistance because we still have to find more of that to cap it out Citadel boots are incredible for an armor base we are picking up some more movement speed and strength obviously we also pick up the big coold down recovery but you can also get get it on the Belt if that's more comfortable for you I opted for the boots preferably and then some hybrid health for the obvious reasons I'm not sure about this Relic this was also recommended to me because of the high level of strength and we are checking strength and of course the elemental spell skills which um do for some skills seem to work however the thing that interested me the most aside from the implicit being massive on the health obviously is also the current health converted to wart when you directly cast an elemental spell now some of our tools are spells and they do have an elemental tag I however have not been able to test if it works um because if it does it might be worth picking up because due to the cleaver we also have a bunch of intelligence which gives us massive Ward retention so that could add a little bit of a layer of defense and it's certainly delightful if we can actually go full wart in the super super late game because of the massive levels of intelligence but yeah I'm working on the live version right now speaking of live version we pick up life wherever we can with some quit avoidance this with the blessing will cap us we'll pick up some more Health some more Health some more Health little bit of Health Elemental res little bit of Health Elemental res more health I'm thinking about turning some of these Idols into some resistance Idols to help facilitate this but I've also been told by the chat that it is not necessarily uh mandatory to cap everything if you have an excess of life and damage reduction which we kind of have or you know if you have a shield which is still something I'm contemplating I feel a lot more comfortable in terms of staying alive with a shield though blessings however void res crit avoidance armor shred for the cold obviously and a little bit of lightning res very mandatory to cap that out um in terms of the passives we are picking up the basic health all the strength notes we can the dual wield if you do want a dual wield otherwise you can take this off and wear a shield which gives you a passive skill point back which is nice some Hunters restoration a singular Point here in Hunter's amination to help some healing and then a Berserker Point that's pretty much it um you could unspec Hunter's amination if you want to be very specific about it otherwise uh I just like the little bit of healing I can do without needing the leech especially during leveling this is nice um on the dro tree we are picking up some more armor as well as armor for minions we're also picking up more stats because we're are stat stacking a singular travel point of bless spring so we can pick up Five Points of river Spirits because we are Frost based and getting a little bit more cold damage as well as some freeze U Shenanigans very very valuable here and then also we pick up wind in the leaves because that's just an incredible uh steroid for both us on the attack and cast speed but also on our minions very very good Beast Master is of course the big one we pick up the typical Beast Master taxs including Earth sign strength we're also picking up four points of the chase for traveling we're maxing out the bore heart because strength we are picking up a single point on life of the Wilderness just as a travel point but also so that we have uh companions with endurance we are picking up Five Points of Viper fanks you could decide Point uh to spend more points into here if you want more melee attack speed with my gear at the moment on life I do not need this I'm basically Sonic already uh Cry of the links I want to pick up at least four points if I can help it I find four seconds to be quite nice um we are picking up the mandatory natur's Embrace with a plus one companion we are picking up serrated claws for crit multi and of course even more crit multi because it double Stacks we are picking up 10 points in ancient might for strength we are also picking up uh Four Points of critical bite cuz I wanted to go above 12 but honestly I might actually push this down to maybe three or two points maybe even one point depending on how it ends up feeling in the late game once we have insane levels of damage more so than we have right now other than that though I have opted for some additional points in the Primal aspects just to make the Buffs that we have on the Shark the panther the links the Viper just to let them last a little longer as we jump from pack to pack so that is what it is for the passive points um and then the skills this is where some of the magic really starts to happen temper strike is a attack speed steroid with neutral Mana we're reducing it as much as we can we're still using warm shelter or not using warm shelter so we still cast our cold Tempest which allows us to not only benefit from the Gladiator lagon but get more stacks for Gladiator lagon through Lagoon Ian Shamanism and then also we pick up scheme of the architect this is where we need the 50 intelligence for as well which is very very nice um you could actually dual wield the appes if you wanted to and just get no strength on your gear but stack 50 intelligence and that would also work but you would have a lot less armor and I think we all agree that unless you play a druid there is some squish involved if you don't fix it and we are fixing it with strength decking so just something to consider we pick up some ancest natural swiftness as well as some soaring blows right here very simple to understand the stars of the show are the Summon Storm Crow we have three points left which is the apog um if I switch to a shield I don't have to worry about it but yes we are picking up the uh the mandatory two points of shredding beaks Four Points of huntsman The Feathered storm which skills with strength for more shred and Shred effect which is really really nice and then we pick up at least four points of murder of crows we also convert are crows to cold by going through shocking display into frigid wings and then I've been trying to figure out what the ideal points are for observe and learn which is what we do want to pick up because that increases the base crit times three now I'm not sure what the ideal version is because it's very difficult to calculate what the actual crit chance is unless you for you know follow the entire formula so I'm kind of experimenting with this I might add some points into here maybe three or four or alternatively if I want to feel particularly frisky I could also go for a wolf spec to get another companion to get six Companions and then get a traversal skill by going into Sky passage which is quite lovely um but I want to kind of feel that out with cast beat because well you know it's it's a cast it's a spell so we have to cast it and we're not scaling cast speed so I'm waiting until I have some more cast speed on my gear through the unique items and maybe through some of the passive tree so that we can see if it feels good cuz if it does I might drop Fury leap B more about that in just a second swipe however might seem a little weird to some people but we want to pick up closet the bear which gives it a cooldown which is also why we need cool down reduction but we can actually spam storm Crow through Primal resonance which is very very nice with some cool down reduction you get this close to 1 second maybe even below 1 second which means you can summon the crow storm but normally has a significant cool down but now you can just Spam it through Swip which is very very good a lot more extra damage that way we're also picking up some culling we're picking up some more area just so we can hit the swipe because we do have to make sure that we um have to hit um on top of that we pick up more AOE just for that sole purpose of hitting we're also picking up some aspect of the panther at least three points some feline Hunter for Global attack speed and cast speed we're picking up lion strength at least two points so both of them and then three points for some further scaling up that aspect of the panther for health regen and duration so it Smooths out the little uh the build entirely I guess you could drop stormclaw if you want to go for another stack but that's entirely up to you in terms of Fury leap I've opted for um a little bit of a different take than some people do I still pick up the immune I still pick up the battle Bloom for the cleanse and the five out of five Warriors entrance for massive damage Buffs which is very very good because it also Stacks which brings brings me to my next Point some people actually go to the top right here or go and pick up gravity I have decided however to go with regain stamina because when we kill enemies with another skill which happens fairly frequently we have a 20% chance to reset it at once every 5 Seconds which allows me to move through the monoliths faster and also allows me to stack perhaps more Warriors entrance for more burst I feel like it might be good but yes I could also unspec it and go for the wolf um which is an interesting take because then you can actually get a plus one companion by the note on the left and then you can use that reversal skill here if you want one with Sky passage if you want to maybe get some uh some cast speed on your gear to make that smooth which is very very fun as well so I'm contemplating that to maybe get a sixth crow in by dropping Fury leap but I'm not sure what do you guys think about that uh what is however mandatory on what I will never drop is the following 22 points in war cry or or at least 21 points in war cry I'm still not sure if verocity works I still feel like it's bugged half the time but who knows we are picking up the cleanse down the bottom we are picking up the mandatory shallow breath we are picking up the four out of four battlecry and then we're picking up the five out of five Frost claw as well as the bringer of winter with increased crit chance down there that should ultimately hopefully cap our birds out with two or three points depending on how it ends up in the math I have to do the map there still but yes all of that will cap our birds out and make them absolutely pop off we can maybe get some quality of life here with verocity if it works but that's kind of how the build works together you jump in you war cry you swipe and you just bombard the actual um storm Crow onto the enemy and they instantly die and in between swipes you want to just hold down your Tempest strike because you attack so many times a second all these Buffs right here hun man as well as um the crit around here observe and learn will pretty much be up all the time with that in Your Arsenal so that's kind of the plan that's what I'm cooking with uh let me know what you guys think check in on this stream if you want to see me level the build further I started leveling today and we're already uh making some Headway in the monoliths we're level 70 right now so it's a it's been a good time I'm I'm looking forward to the insane potential of this build it's going to be awesome thank you so much for watching see you guys next time I'm out
