Mosaic Bases

Heyo. Might have some time to play soon so I was thinking of doing a MA sin. Now that ladder has been out for a while can I get your thoughts on what Mosaic bases seem to work best, what +skills are you looking for (is it just PS?) Do the +skills make a big difference, where did you find your bases etc. Txs

With how broken Mosaic is atm the +skills dont really matter. you faceroll everything regardless.

You'll want 3os

Runic Talons for max speed, although im sure

Feral Claws would work too. Which id hunt for in the cow level as usual for socketed hell gear. Hell bovines have the highest chance to drop according to the item calc: (

Is (attack) speed actually important? I heard too much AS could lead to some next hit delay bugs that cause not all your hits to take effect thus lowering your dmg output.

hmm, I haven’t seen anything about too much AS doing that but that could be. Im sure you could use slow

Claws and still faceroll everything. With how OP it is I’m sure you could walk around naked with just slow dual Mosaic’s and still do just fine. Lol. I think once blizz fixes/nerfs it then it’ll be time to re-calculate needs for higher DPS.

I'd honestly be fine with them leaving it as is. Just to shuffle the "does not consume

Charge" in

Claw Mastery or something since using x2 Mosaic is kind of a pain build-diversity wise. Mosaic could prolong the duration up from 15 seconds of your charges which would still give Mosaic a good use imo. But yeah overall even if they do not touch that build for 2-3 seasons I'd personally be ok since having new builds being top tier in the meta is kind of refreshing. Def would not want to see a sin nerf into oblivion again.

As of now, anyway, plan on using

Fade instead of BoS and to be at 4 fps, not 3 if you use

Dragon Talon to avoid Next Hit Delay, if I understood correctly War Theory / Llama's videos.

Supposedly using slow

Claws or in Principle staying at 4 frames is beneficial for the actual damage output because of the next hit delay issue.

Is it possible to have a claw base that has +3 to any three of PS, BoI, CoT, FoF, TS, CS? Probably that.

But then again a base of

Mind Blast,

Dragon Flight, and Shadow could theoretically be 8 points you save to dump into

Fade sooner.

claw can has only those skills: so the only usable skills for martial artsin are PS,

Dragon Flight and mindblast (last two saves you few skill points)

Thanks for this, makes alot of sense for the bases I've been finding lol.

What about

Blades of Ice? Synergy for PS and I use BoI In almost all my rotations for the freeze.

In light of this, the best claw bases IMO would be +3 PS, +3 BoI, and +1-3

Dragon Flight/

Mind Blast

agree, but for this combination you would need like 20ber

Dragon Flight is way better than

Mind Blast as of now you won't ever use mine blast EVER my char is so op I use charms of plus to shadow discipline just for more dmg % reduced on

Fade because survivability is more of a issue than any p8 farming on any boss or anything at all... you have 3 elements your dishing out major dmg with at all time and nothing in the game can run or hide from you but they can kill you at times lol

what i heard with AS is if u r on 3frames, and you use

Dragon Talon and u casting meteors you do 5kicks in set, but it activates only 4meteors so ur dmg is 80% what it is suppose to do on paper (I am not sure if this issue is only with meteors or with all other charges), but because its overpowered as hell. I would still use 3frames rather than 4.

No, I mean

Claws of Thunder is not one of the skills on your chart of claw base skills

ohh I just realized there was a scroll bar
imho best website to check it (best visualized and all items on one page is https://maxroll.gg/d2/d2planner

also there are some combination which arent possible:
for example those ones cannot be on item at same time as PS so for example you can have +3PS, +3 BoI and +3 CoT But if u went for dual those

Charge up skills. You just cant have

Fade,

Mind Blast and

Dragon Flight at the same time. (unless u go PvP you wont need

Mind Blast). Sorry for missleading information before

here is the link for my theory crafted martial art assassin - focus on dmg and dmg only
https://maxroll.gg/d2/d2planner/mw01062k

There is no need to max out

Dragon Talon and since it's OP anyway you can get away with not completely maxing any of the MA skills was well.
