we wait, looks amazing! BTW do u know a good cast and forget build in LE? cheers

Skill says 99 dmg That not what it does! maybe a Bug 🤔🙄 That's Base Damage 99 your armor weapons Rings Skills everything Adds to skills in all RPG. Give spells or skills a base damage is so that they can introduce higher "tiers" of the spell, say Fire I, Fire II, Fire III, etc. These spells would have a base damage component to compensate for a lower MAT weight (to balance it with melee skills, which in most games do not have tiers). Fire I could be something like "50 + a.mat * 2 - b.mdf * 2", while a melee skill could be "a.atk * 4 - b.def * 2". (Which means that Fire I will do more damage until 25 MAT, assuming the opponent has equal DEF and MDF.) Likewise, Fire II could be "150 + a.mat * 2 + b.mdf * 2" (Which would make it deal more damage up to 75 MAT). It's not a bug🤣 Take off Everything Delete all your skills beside that skill see what the damage is 🤔

by the way I just like to say thank you for making this video. You help me prove a point to one of my friend's. He always on KZfaq and TikTok checking out new tricks and I keep telling him you got to take everything they say with grain of salt. Did you make a good build probably maybe? But because you don't understand the gaming mechanics you don't know why your build works. So, anyone listening to you will make there build worse or better than your build. I already see few things wrong but that for me and for you to find out. When I am making builds, I like to jump on KZfaq see what other people are doing. I may use part of their build but not everything. I like what you said about the Scorpion I'll Check in to that.

Hi, that sounds like an interesting build. It would be good if you made a video of how your level 100 build works for you.

You could replace it with Eterras Blessing and take the node that resets Companion ability when you use it on them. Or even Frenzy Totem. If you replace Swipe with another pet you would have to change some passives around as this build is setup for a single companion.

I made a shaman on release got him to 82 just made another scorpion and am at lvl 65 updated build will come soon

It's my first one I'll do better on the updated build

@dTikTak Any ETA on that? You could update the core link - I think you could fill out the progression in 10 minutes or less. I think a lot of viewers would appreciate it. Not asking to bug ya - asking because I want to genuinely try the build.

I tried his build briefly before servers went down for update today. I leveled with Maxroll BM Primalist leveling guide. For clarity, I leveled to 35 with wolves using Maxrolls above leveling guide loot filter for BM. And at lvl 35 I just changed some of the affix filters they had set up which didn’t look for attunement, DoT, and poison affixes. Then after farming some starter gear I refunded my passives and went to poison Scorpion build. Only lvl 38 but it was cheese for sure, I had enough passives by Act 7 in campaign at lvl 42 to spec well into this build and I plan on running it into end game, into Monoliths, and when I get half way thru the non-corruption Monoliths and start collecting the monolith bonuses I’ll re-spec into an Earthquake Primalist DOT build from The Curse - shoutout TC. That way I’m collecting the right Monolith bonuses for my true end game build and I can have one final EQ DoT setup to run Monoliths well into the 600-700 Corruption lvl cuz that LowLife EarthQuake build just slaps and feels like invul face tanking with a couple “Life to Ward” items. Also ez to obtain all items for this entire run. Obviously once you start pushing 100+ corruption your items will start becoming Legendaries and whatnot but nothing special required until you get to 200+ corruption

I always say go offense till you need the defense. Glad your enjoying it. The end game version of the build is coming soon.

@@RoundedTikTak Update: switched out Blessing for Serpent Strike, liking the DPS boost overall now that I have a spammable ability again. Hadn't noticed the little added bonus interaction it has with Maelstrom, fully intend to exploit it. Also took the Summon Snake on kill node, that still works with the passives. So even though I'm taking the single companion passives, I have one giant scorpion, three babies, and occasionally a snake all getting Frenzy buffed from Maelstrom spam, and the Thorn Totem nuke for when I want to keep my distance. I'm about to hit end-game, it's been good aside from a few one-shot situations, but my resistances aren't capped yet, so... swings and roundabouts, to be expected in that regard. Looking forward to the end game version, see if there's any ideas I missed.

Dmg over time from minions is number 1, then mix and match the rest. (don't quote me on this but) I think everything is additive. So as long as your damage type corresponds to the type your doing you should be fine. However since minions scale differently that's why we focus on that 2

Mine casts on myself ALL THE TIME lol I'll turn on health bars and try again.

Ok I have tried every combination I cannot get it to auto cast on my scorpion.

@@RoundedTikTak I have played this build since 1.0, another suggestion is to use frenzy totem which buffs venom nova range by 150%(full screen nova!) and also refresh venom nove ability on cast & buff your scorpion attach speed, it is a good substitue for blessing for bossing and clearing maps.

www.lastepochtools.com/planner/OBjr6m1B try this website is still being weird

I mean, where do you get scorpion then? :D

@niko86600 15 points into beast master. Scorpion is well within cross spec range. Plus the specs will all help the build anyway Anyway the one I'm trying now is springing form dots. I can spec for poison vines, the leap cam cause poison vines. Unsure of its survivability however since it's not built around actually using the spriggan form. Other issues so far has to do with scaling. Too much split between attunement and str, right now I'm thinking to sacrifice str in favor of spells and poison/DOT since that's the main minion damage anyway. I also swapped out rive entirely and am opting just to use viper strike. That way I can grab entangling roots as well. Which supplies another big minion buff and does crowd control after the leap to keep them in the scorpion pool. Haven't finished it yet but I can't see a reason it won't work. Also probably going to try another swarm version that drops the focus on dot damage and just uses them to amplify hit damage and rely on crits for the clear speed. Swarm blade one seems much more survivable since you can actually use the form without screwing up the combo. Might even drop leap in that version for something else. Maybe eterra or w.e. But yeah scorpion builds seem fun.

@@Syllaren so this won't work. transformation remove your skills and Scorpion is required to be in your bar to use poison nova, the main skill for the build. it is also kinda of weird because a big part of druid is using transforms... which you cannot use. The only benefit you'd get from druid is entangled roots but a big thing that makes this build good in first place is aspect of the viper. a skill that only shows up in beastmaster tree for 40% poison pen. I think only way you can conceive this as possible build is using thorn totems with poison nodes, Using Etherra's blessing on Scorpian to spam the poison nova, Thorn totems and Entangled roots. I am not convinced it would be a good build but maybe it works.

@dodang_9147 even if its triggered via viper strike it won't nova unless in bar? That's a bummer I've ended up using all my time trying to get a focus sorcerer build to work instead of trying this lol

@@Syllaren no. transform gives 4 extra skills. you cannot change them. you can go serpent strike melee and poison but you cannot use scorpion. Most people don't do this because frostbite is same as poison but better. Like i said, there is pet build that i can see someone doing with thorn totem with poison, spaggan form( healing totem = thorn totem), ethrra healing, scorpion and entangled roots. I just don't see it doing too well. In practice, you can use scorpian nova, use ethrra healing, use nova again, then spam entangled roots with thorn totems while scorpian gets healed by healing totem(which applies healing to reset scorpian skill). the main issue is that your going to be having to max like 35 mp regen because those skills cost so much mana. you'll be burning mana like nothing. 100% required to font rings+Urzil pride and stack mp regen everywhere. even that might not be enough mana.

serpent strike requires spears, it says on the skill itself

I'd also be interested in a filter for this exact build.

www.lastepochtools.com/planner/OBjr6m1B hopefully

instead of war cry?

@@TheKeegsters instead of serpent strike.

i just found that frenzy totem can cast eterra's blessing with healing pulse node. Must try it.

Update. It's great.

@@TheKeegsters are you using frenzy and warcry or frenzy and eterra?

NORMALLY its should just be minion damage, but as im finishing up the end game version video it seems base poison damage works as well. Why you ask? No idea. Above my pay grade.

Poison works. It shouldn't. But it's does. My dots hit for 1.2 million. IRL keeps getting in the way but trying to post the endgame version.

That would be awesome. I've been really enjoying this in hardcore right now. Just was wondering if i should even both getting player poison chance and DoT as originally stated (since I noticed your snapshot had some equipment with DoT)@@RoundedTikTak

I promise it's not as bad

Yes its better but it's a pain in the ass. I mention it in the video lol

Link me your build? Your doing SOMETHING wrong, not sure what. This build should get you through the campaign with ease.

The perk. You need drops on 5 items. 1 hand and 2 hand swords and axes And 2 hand spear So anyone of them. When you psuh hard content your gonna want a 1h and a shield anyway.

Overlap away enjoy!

Minion damage scales with strength, their abilities scale with attunement though. When you summon your minions and hover over the active skill in your skill bar u can see the tag change into attunement

I mention it in the video. It is bugged and goes UNDER the map you can see it if you use it on the edge of the map. Still works tho.

@@RoundedTikTak cool thanks and thank u so much for the build really fun and easy to play and insanly strong 😱

You could focus on eterras blessing for the constant reset of poison nova and maybe frenzy totem so your scorpions melee are a bit better?

no because he threw together the build on the char to push content then ditched it cos he stole the build and doesn't understand it enough.

@@nickq8093 Stoled to who?

@@tonyverdechi9157 it's from a build guide on LE tools. Totemless scorp nova BM by cookbook

@@nickq8093 Could be. This one has Serpent strike while yours use Eterra's Blessing instead. I guess it depends if you want to be more offensive (SS) or defensive (EB). But very similar I admit. Lets see the bright side. He helped to promote a real beginner build (no specific gear needed). There isn't much real beginner builds out there. In any case, these builds are 1.0 and the game had a fair amount of changes since then, and many guides hasen't been updated. A lot of Stier builds at that time are now Atier, if not Btier and some went up.

@@tonyverdechi9157 the best proof is his attunement. He has like 40 for no good reason, it doesn't scale his damage or survivability, the only thing it gives him is some mana efficiency that he doesn't need, his only mana intensive skill is scorp nova which is on a high cooldown. So why does he have 40 attunement? Because the build he stole from needs that attunement for the mana efficiency scaling on eterra's blessing and scorp nova so it can cast them all the time. He even mentions running eterra's blessing in the video. Also it's not a choice between offensive and defensive because the blessing version gives far more damage than his due to being able to spam nova a lot more. He could promote the beginner friendly build while giving credit. He doesn't get any points for stealing more accessible builds.

I was actually looking for this answer - are you sure about this ? so in general it is mandatory that "minion" is there and all other sources of poison and dot are useless ?

I tried his build briefly before servers went down for update today. I leveled with Maxroll BM Primalist leveling guide. For clarity, I leveled to 35 with wolves using Maxrolls above leveling guide loot filter for BM. And at lvl 35 I just changed some of the affix filters they had set up which didn’t look for attainment and poison affixes. Then after farming some starter gear I refunded my passives and went to poison Scorpion build. Only lvl 38 but it was cheese for sure, I had enough passives by Act 7 in campaign at lvl 42 to spec well into this build and I plan on running it into end game, into Monoliths, and when I get half way thru Monoliths and start collecting the monolith bonuses I’ll re-spec into an Earthquake Primalist DOT build from The Curse - shoutout TC - so I can run Monoliths well into the 600-700 Corruption lvl cuz that LowLife EartgQuake build just slaps and feels like incl face tanking.

@@Gabriel-qw2le Awesome feedback, thanks sir! really apreciate.

​@@Gabriel-qw2lewhere can I find this earthquake build for endgame. Currently lv31 following this poison build atm

@@Gabriel-qw2le can you share your updated loot filter for the scorpion version?

@@ravisingh9953Hello, Crit EQ is on maxroll and DoT EQ is made by The Curse (you can check him on YT)

His boots have a perk that makes your minions jump with you on traversal skill usage.

Hey, do you maybe have some planner or what to invest differently?

@@Keszamot097 I can send you a link to the build i based mine of. Only thing i'll say is that it's not as straight forward as the viper strike version. For this version you want more attunement and some extra mana regen. Eterra's blessing buffs your scorpion but you have to aim it, it also refreshes the venom nova meaning you have to cast it right after. You essentially want to keep moving while getting as many venom nova's off as possible until you can cast swipe. It's the better version of the build but it's higher apm and there's more stuff to manage. For me that makes it more fun but since both builds work well anyways you should pick what seems the most fun to you. I based mine on this build from last patch. www.lastepochtools.com/planner/ZA8Zz6kB

Yea I know, I talk about it in the video. It's a pain in the ass to manage lol. I've died SO MANY TIMES looking for my scorpion to heal instead of watching the scream and then getting 1 shot

@@RoundedTikTak i guess my reply got removed because of a link despite being harmless but yeah it's a harder build to run. I think it's more fun because there's more stuff to manage but since both builds work so well it's really a matter of preference. It's kind of tricky in the start but you get used to it, there's a rhythm to it that is quite fun to me and it's rewarding to have skill matter since i can absolutely destroy the bosses if i'm quick enough with my presses.

@@RoundedTikTak Another thing to note is that when you get used to the build you stop looking for the scorpion since you sort of understand how it paths intuitively, it's mostly an apm thing at that point.

he shouldn't get arrested because he didn't make the build. he stole it from a build guide on LEtools and doesn't actually understand it.

It's a starter build my friend. The mapping is literally wild you just walk to the end, and I've killed every mono boss in less than 20 seconds. With absolute trash gear. Plus you need 0 uniques to make it work.

I show a lvl 92 soulfirebastion fight at lvl 72 I just blurred it out for spoilers. But the health bar is there.

you play softcore. it's all moot.@@RoundedTikTak

So a softcore build should be discredited for the sole reason that it's softcore? That's a bit aggressive. Not everyone wants to play hardcore, especially new players... which is what he's hinting at in this video.

Not sure why this is hard to understand... but if you play the game on practice mode you shouldn't be trying to guide others on how to play the game since you aren't even confident enough to step into hc yet. @@adavis7292

If I said warlock I apologize, I meant necromancer. Warlock is absolutely busted.

What makes my first video of Last Epoch so low effort? And EB is better but is clunky af to use.

Imagine playing hardcore lmfao
