Ray Of Awesome [Thaumaturge Build by Prodigy]
Ray Of Awesome is my kinda way to deal with stuff . Kill everything , dont care about them stacks , WIPE ZE MAP , etc etc .

-----------------------

=Skills=

ACTIVE

So basicly Ray of Awesome is Ray of Entropy , but before you scale high in level to have and sunstain this skill (As you can see the skill is pretty much endless spam ) , you will have to learn some other skills first .


Energy Bolt + 2 passives - This your autoattack you will use this until you get awesome . (With bolt of swarm you get massive at early levels after that you can remove that rage spender and use it only with the passives) .
Ice Shards + 2 passives - This skill is temporary again until you get ray of awesome . (+50% dmg and penetration its quite a mob cleaner in the early stage).

RAY OF AWESOME (entropy) - Max it + 2 passives + You choose the active you want really ( I propose +50%dmg or +50 Healing if you have problems at certain stages of the game , gear dependant )
This skill will rock your world , kills everything , while you smoke , shower , sleep , eat , even afk .Basicly hold down a key and voila , something died ! Scales well with levels , got amazing passive ( 5% lifesteal + 30% damage reduction while channeling - AMAZING )
Arcane + Cold = Overpowered .

The only downside is to spam this 24/7 you gotta have good mana pool , mana regen and mana cost reduction . Which is not a big problem in the mid/late game .

-----------------------

PASSIVE

Max Mana - Level 5 , to get to the passive increased 30% mana regen when you are bellow 25% mana .

Elemental Damage - Level 10 . No comment , amazing dmg booster + passives are quite good infact I recommend "Elemental Expertise" .

Focus Damage - Level 10 + Arcane passive , Try not to invest in the other passive . Great Booster , MAX .

Bodybuilding - Level 1 to 5 . Good skill use if you dont have the life pool to survive .

Improved Arcane Power - Level 10 + 2 passives , AMAZING . Nothing more to say , moar DMG and POWA .

-----------------------

AURAS

Frost Adept - 30% moar Ice dmg , You love this one . + the passive frost expertise (Which works on ray of awesome )

Aura of Defiance - 1 point Wonder .

Ice Sage - Level 5 if you can do go for moar - Its pure dmg .

-----------------------

TRICKS

Painlesssssnesss - You feel no pain for 3 seconds - 1 point wonder . Life saver

Ghastly Shape - Get out of nasty situations . 1 point wonder . Life saver

------------------------------------

STATS

Pretty simple here its not a pvp build so I walk with 2400 HP and ALL POINTS ON WILLPOWER .

"You mad bro ? How do you live ?" - Ray of awesome + decent gear does the trick . Damage is all I need .


---------------------------------------------------


ITEMS

Ive played around 100 hours and to tell you , Unique and Sets are not so huge ... Ive had 50-100 unique / set drops (2 full stash pages) and I run only 3 uniques atm .

Magmaforge Staff lvl 55 , Saffi Improved Medalion lvl 40 , Helix Boots lvl 50

Others are simple rare , yellow , trash from ground , garbage .

----------------------------------------------------

PSSST . I Deal 60-70k crits atm lel , and thats with rare items so OP

Expect pictures soon

I do over 200K in crit hits. But I'm not using everything exactly as you have it, I tweaked mine

Elyctric Discharge still blows this out of the water by miles, just like it did in the First game.

I highly doubt you can stand there and channel in your crap gear, when double Spike Waves and Skyblasts pound you in Fearless V - Maze of Daze Clue Hunt.

I cannot stand people who post replies like this so let me give some input.

Fearless is a problem for EVERYONE because of the special immunities and resistances almost every enemies has. Anyone who says they have an answer for every enemy in Fearless and or has an answer with ease, is a liar. So quit trying to act like you're all that.

How do you know his gear is crap, have you seen it? I got news for you, eight enchantments of the right calibur maxed out on rares without essences, is ten times more powerful, than the epics with essences..

You also must have forgotten about scroll of invulnerablity which 99.9% players have to use in fearless.

So just knock off trying to throw someone under the bus.

I think I will just record a video of me doing just that - Maze of Daze Clue Hunt with my build.

That would save everyone time arguing.

There is nothing to argue, your'e just trying to act like a douche to someone who posted their build for others that aren't as versed in the game.

I can make a video of my build and prove it's better than yours so what if I can and it is. But that serves absolutely no purpose, it's pointless and doesn't prove anything.
Great you have a build that works...And...So do tons of people.

N0 build is better than another. Every build is equal, it has to do on how it's built. I can take any build and make them all equally powerful because I understand the game.

I do almost 300K with my ranged build, do you see me trashing other people's buiilds because I can..No I only said that here and now because you're being a douche to someone trying to ack like you're better than them.. Just because I can do that type of damage doesn't mean jack..So what if I can great I can do that type of damage...and...It doesn't mean anything.

You make contradicting claims.

First you say:

>Fearless is a problem for EVERYONE because of the special immunities and resistances ?>almost every enemies has.

Then you say "All builds are equal".

That is patently FALSE.

Lightning builds are superior since there are NO Lightning immunes in the game, but there are Fire and Ice immunes.

If that is not enough, as far as I know there are 3 skills for Thaumaturge with Instant Kill %. Of those 3, Elyctric Discharge has the highest percentage - 24% to Insta Kill any champion and elite, with up to 3 500 000+ HP in Purge Mode, EVEN through Freaking Invulnerability Shield.

And wait there's more: It can even kill some Campaign Bosses. I have 1 shotted Von Schreck just an hour ago, who had over 10 000 000 HP.

In the face of overwhelming Insta Kill chance - up to 4 Elyctric Discharge Orbs with 24% Insta Kill chance at 2 shots per second, absolute damage numbers mean exactly nothing since their HP itself becomes irrelevant.

Of course that's false because I never said that you've taken out of context what I said about builds beinge qual. The context I used "all builds are equal" clearly says no one build is better than another, all builds are equal (MEans in that regard)

Originally posted by diosmio:

That is 100% incorrect, Lighting builds are not, maybe from what you've seen but I can prove fire is just as powerful same with poison. And there are lightning immunes, you clearly haven't ran up against UNDEAD now have you, there are also plenty of other enemies that are lightning immune. So to say there are no lightning immunes is false. There is an immunity for every element in the game.

That's completely false. Whether from a Shield or a scroll, Invulnerability prevents ALL damage of ANY Amount for as long as it's active. Come try and hit me when I have a scroll active and see how much damage you DON'T DO TO ME.

If you think Thamaturge only has 3 builds you're sadly mistaken, you remoind me of someone who plays Diablo 2 who thinks bcause all anyone does is use the same 3 builds over and over that those are the only builds that exist.

Got news for you...My mirror image build would destroy you. I wind up with so many copies of myself, katarina, and my wold summons, all doing sickening damage that you wouldn't know what end is up. Sure you'd be able to kill a chunk of them but just because of how that build works you'd be overwhelmed and be dead in under 8 seconds.

Anyone who has instakill will one shot a boss..and...You're acting like this is some random feature that's some secret.

You're acting like you have the only build that has instakill FYI smart ass I have over 30% instakill on every single one of my builds and a few builds have more than that on it.

Instakill doesn't favor builds and anyone can get the same exact result on any character that uses it. And to further explain something to you, the instakill on my Range guy using explosive scattershot has a 10 times higher % to work than your build does simply because I shoot out 5-8 more hits than you do and instakill % applies to each uiindividual pellet that hits.

So I shoot out 5-8 pellets at least 5-9 times in about 5 seconds (If that) with over a 30% instakill chance per pellet, which means I'm doing over a 54 pellets x 30% % insta kill chance per pellet you do the math.

MY ranged guy also does close to 300K to begin with

Now I have a problem against physical immunity so to kill those enemies my damage comes from poison, fire and lighting.

So don't talk to me about you're build being the best when I just outlined things you were not even aware of. Still want to argue.

Come into PVP and I'll bring my ranged guy in and show you how good yoru build is.

Nice of you to construct a straw man and spend half a post to pummel it.

Way to go mixing PvP and PvE, when my comment was only about PvE, and I'd play you in PvP but my imported character is deemed invalid for PvP by the game. It has it's fair share of bugs after all.

You still would not approach anyone without invul scrolls or skills, Discharges can kill from screens away, and cannot be killed themselves unlike summons or whatever.

And no, you're not the only one using mirror images and summons.

P.S. Trophies remove immunities, apparently.

PVP still isn't fixed but. And you're bragging about how good your characters is, so PVP/PVE isn't relevant.

The aspect about invulnerability was to point out that it's false information for to say you were able to do damage to something while it was invulnerable.
You completely ignroed what I said about the summons, I said you'd get some of them but there are way too many to deal with. So your point is moot you'd still be dead because you'd be overwhelmed.

I never said I was, I simply corrected you about there only beingt 3 builds of a thaumaturge and that each build for any character class are all equally poweful when build correctly

No they don't

Try running maps that you think have Lightning immunes with Adamantine Razor Trophy on the Trophy Desk. You'd be surprised.
