I have been on an explosive build journey and I’ve made a couple that I really like, but nothing that overwhelms the game like this. I will be using this!! Thank you sir
That comment about this able to be a sub-one-hour boss rush, makes one think: If it remains unchanged, this would be a premiere loadout for speedrunning this game. After all, what else would you be doing with weapons that OOONNNNEE CYCLLLLLEE BIG ANNIE? By the by, this is the first time I have seen hellfire reach that sort of height in usefulness, after hearing so many bad things about it. It really got unleashed in here. Nifty upload there, Insip!
I've managed to one cycle annihilation on champion with a life steal melee build and the Kamehameha gloves mixed with the weak spot drill mod. But I had to get really lucky on BR perks
I was making a version of this using Kinship and Spirit Healer on the Hellfire to give myself and my minions enough healing to ignore the friendly damage. Works well. I tried making a version with 1 point in Blood Bond to trigger the Simone prime perk on flyers but it’s bugged and any self-damage will instantly kill your summons even with only 1 point BB and full Kinship.
I'm amazed you aren't blowing yourself up with the flamethrower mod at point blank. Is that because of the friendly fire trait mixed with life steal? Or are you also using something like the augment that heals on mod use?
Build so good you can knock yourself down vs sunken witch and not get punished for it. Will be trying this out if i ever reach endgame (without deciding to make a new character to suffer through apoc again 😅)
Put on this build right after the livestream and it’s hilarious. And the best part is the next legendary I got after trying the build was the Explosions get 30% crit chance and crit damage, it was meant to be lol
@IHaveInsipidus hell yeah, same. I only ever tried it back in the day before all the dlc. I was looking for an explosive mod that had 4 charges like the meridian (dpuble mod charges relic), and it definitely surprised me 😅
@haydengoodson4650 archon/gunslinger, double mods with reaction chain, burden of mesmer, fearin signit, probability cord, burden of the gambler. With feed back on medridian and harmonizer on the helix gun. Gunslinger is for fire rate, and quality of life using guns when you I feel like it. I hate how slow you shoot the mods with summoner. I have mod gen and damage twice on my prism. Also note that using gunslinger and the ability bullet Strom is a lot easier to put on cool down for the mesmer ring than having to summoner and kill off minions.
Without the legendary prism effect that prevented stagger, this build is not really fun to use as you would stagger yourself whenever the enemy is not far away when hit.
you can definitely still make it work. it's easy, in my case, to get lazy and just face tank my own bomb since I know it won't stagger me, but since most enemies keep a bit of distance from you, you can make it work
@@powerduck8209 corrupted meridian would have a much higher chance of staggering you way more. Each individual explosion from it staggers so it’s like an infinite stunlock when shot wrong lol. But that’s ok; hellfire hits way harder. Also , If you got to the latter half of the video, you see how hard it hits with all the right upgrades in boss rush, and I haven’t seen anything else so effective.. not even close
