budget farming with warlock discussion

Hi, I just have budget gear and have been figuring out what to kill. I'm on abyss warlock: 20 miasma bolt; 20 miasma chain; 20 abyss; 15 enhanced entropy; 10

Consume; 1 sigil: lethargy.
I have Spirit and Lore as my + skillers. I have an Insight merc

Cryptic Axe;

Tal

Mask; random armor.

• I killed pit very easily. It just takes 3-4 seconds per pack for abyss to kill them. I didn't find miasma chain very effective here.
• I killed cow level very easily. I just hit with miasma chain and kite them with it into miasma and the cow dies in 3-4 seconds as well. It is possible to kite 3 packs at a time at least.
• I'm level 86 and have just been killing
  Terror zones too. It is pretty much like running the pit.
• I tried pindle, it takes a little while to kill him with abyss, all the droger guys are arisen and walking into the temple when he dies. I feel like pindle is not possible to farm compared to the other spots.
• Trav is hit or miss, if all the council are on the porch in the corner abyss is cast and kills them all, then approach the window on the left and abyss any council in the temple by the orb -- it is surprisingly quick to kill them all. There is probably a stronger approach to trav, e.g. run in and sigil lethargy, miasma chain them, keep abyssing and reapply sigil and chains until dead.
• I have 0 poison resistance so I didn't go to eldritch or shenk.

A side note, my warlock is on HC so I am going to chicken out of any dangerous farm spots.

Go Eldrich max echoing strike and all sinergies and demon demonic masteris min 2x demons 1 point in

Consume and 1 point in

Bind Demon( Bind

Hephasto the Armorer) other demon y summon for

Consume its nuts damage is nuts ill link video

Yeah..that's not the only nuts build.
I dare say it isn't even the nuttiest, seeing how for that one you're at least somewhat slowed down by the

Blade angle.

There are other options that basically amount to the equivalent of "what if a hammerdin was also a

Nova sorc but stronger than both?".
And if you so choose with a free insanely buffed

Iron Golem thrown in for your aura(s) of choice.
(And more)

In terms of balancing - and I'm using that term VERY loosely - warlocks are basically a prime example of why you don't let random youtubers do your play testing and tell you what to do...
The more I experiment with different ideas, the more obvious that becomes.
Even without charms and unoptimized, it beats Mosaic with multiple different builds while also being far more relaxed as you don't have to worry about any charges dropping if you're a second too slow. And I haven't even tried every variation yet.

Damn. "Let's kill super uniques naked with an Insight in p8."

I anoint Warlock as the budget class king!

(I am actually baited right now. I really liked making my horker and scavenging to get

Mal to kill the travincial council. I guess each warlock build skips early game and is straight into mid game.)

True i saw today Wlock with bow with Brand runeword also balanced ofc shoting like stafe Amazon fire boltsx5 (like sorc with Cbow) only better
