Sharpshooter build after balance patch

Hey,

a friend came back to game and he only played and liked SS before he quit. Since there are changes coming with balance patch, can someone recommend a viable 5x3 for swift LC, spec LC and Death strike?

Swift lc doesnt change at all, spec lc will be a n Option as well, in theory slightly more dmg, than swift but ofcourse a lot slower.

Deathstrike is where the problem lies. You will have to hit more skills in your 8 seconds buff to keep the same DMG than before.

I’ll stay swift lc with grudge,lc,KBW,raid captain, hitmaster. Hallucination set.

Could you explain please if full swift lc is crit necklace, rest swift, or if it’s something else other than crit?

Yes usually its crit/swift on Neck and rest full swift.

For me i run 50/50 crit swift with 4 salvation and 2 nightmare sets and its actually insane tbh.

You have alot of dmg and you don’t have any mana problems at all + you’re movement and skill speed is quite fast.

All you need to know. Every build shown is kinda similar in terms of dmg and only depends on how you want to play. Either you go swiftness for a lot of small numbers or you go spec for higher numbers. Show this to your friend he should understand the sheet :slight_smile:

maybe i did it wrong, i saw somewhere that we should go with one plus crit, so i went neck crit, swift, then one 200 stat crit, and rest swift… am i that wrong about being like that?

Not my vid, but really nicely presents a lot of options for SS in this new Patch.

All specs and builds are really close together now. DS has higher theoretical dmg output but you have to fit in 6 skills now in your burst windows which is really unrealistic IMO.
