What builds are best for ridiculous?

[xianter]

im just learning the game - playing all acts as bloodrinker railmaster with hammer - its quite nice, although clearing speed isnt impressing.
What build are nice to play end game on highes difficulty (rather relax / casual type of playing) ?

[xianter]

for sure, but I'm asking about Torchlight 3 not 2 :P

Railmaster with electrode relic is pretty fun (my first char so i havent experienced anything else yet).... think thor with a train pet
this is a basic attack build with alot of shock everywhere
T3 relic skills localized storm, thousand volt burst (this is a flex skill its not for everyone but has gud synergies with equipment)
max relic passives shocking display, shocking force, tingling sensation, lightning strike
T3 conductor skills shield car, shocking rounds
T1 slammer skills blasting charge, hammer spin
final point in pound (battery ram in the legendarium but this is flex too it was just a spare point)
legendarium battery ram, frenzi blade, cosmic pauldrons

gear go with what ever defense u need but i recommend the bonerazor and bone blocker combo with the arc powered shoulders
as for stats try get + relic energy generation ( this is a sword and board build with emphasis on basic attacks so + basic attacks and +sword damage is also gud as is an electric weapon with + chance to shock)

Im Lv60 electrode mage. I spam chaotic strikes for massive AoE map clearing. 10/10 chaotic strikes and 5/5 in the electrode passives is all u need from that relic. Make sure to use a lightning 2 hander with % chance to shock and zap. That's very important. I can kill ridiculous elites and bosses in literally seconds. damage numbers up to 500,000 everywhere + 61k health. Consecration Lv 2 knocks mobs away and increases damage by 35%. Very fun build :)

thanks, ill try both of them - I was playing a mage (on practice) but with blooddrinker for survivability. Using mage skills - like holy fury i was barely able to harm any boss or elite ...

@Count Minaba are you using some mage skills also ? you don't have problem with mana or relic energy ?

[Spriggen1337]

theres + mana regen items u could probs run a basicless attack on mage i just started my mage yesterday and mana isnt really a problem. since dusk mage can get harmonic form it restores ur mana too theres a dark and light meter around ur mana balance 1 dark and 1 light skill

when blood seeker is down use Power Projection for 50% damage reduction to build back your relic.

alternate on spending your heat with coal launch and vortex bomb.

use sonic pulse on elites bosses etc

[xianter]

sounds nice, but the dmg is enough to kill bosses elites ?
You said that we should use blood seeker, but in build there is 0 pts. Sry for stupid question, just trying to undesratmd this.

Also wander what would be better for chaotic strike (electrode) this mage mention above or railmaster with train ? (in terms of killing speed and ability to build relic energy)

Thanks for all info :)

hey, could u elaborate on that build? sounds really fun.
how did u level it?
only consecrate, chaotic strikes and all electro passives max?

i am intrigued to learn more. :)

does any class have a grouping ability (torque swing on railmaster doesnt seem to work)

I know it's a while since this post, but is there any chance you could post a link to your build? If so, thanks.
