initial uber testing with warlock is promising

Been playing the warlock non-stop and really enjoying it. Figured I'd try and see how it does on ubers. Have only done 3-4 so far and keep tweaking but I'm impressed with how quickly it can get through it all. I just need to figure out how to minimize the damage I take from

Baal next. I show the build and gear at the end of the video. With

Fade proc, I think I'm right at or around 300 lightning res. This set has 75 fcr too. I still need to get the fanaticsm demon just haven't had luck. Enjoy!

Third test - about a 20 second clear?


and the mini ubers


--------------
Below are older setups

Second Test
Also maxed out res and 75 fcr, but this time with cold absorb from

Snowclash and razenfrost. And using

Eldritch Blast to absorb life and mana. Worked great!



First Test
Just testing to see how it goes maxing out resistances and with 75 fcr

Impressively efficient

Simple (in theory at least) - more Cold Resist and Cold Absorb.

The reason you're taking so much damage is because your attacks trigger his

Chilling Armor retaliation, it retaliates for every individual projecticle that hits him, and it does 300+ damage per ice bolt (at 0% resist & absorb). For

Echoing Strike, I think both the initial hits and each "echo" triggers one retaliatory ice bolt - so that's 10 (I think?) retaliatory ice bolts for every attack you make. That's 3000+ return damage per attack (if you have 0% resist & absorb). What's your cold resistance at right now? (couldn't see any gear with absorb but I only looked very briefly)

My res are all maxed out even before

Fade but 0 cold absorb. I will try a

Raven Frost next time and see if that cold absorb helps thanks for the tip.

You know it's wrong when it kills faster than a fully charged Mosaic assassin.

Blizz: Mosaic is OP, no Mosaic on next ladder.
Also Blizz: Here's a new toy for you all.

You were spot on, I added some cold absorb and tried again. This time took no damange. Updated the first post with the new video.

I don't know how it is on the PC, but trying to

Consume in the PSN is super scary as the goat and demon like to wonder around all time time and you have to face the right direction

Consume and hope for the best. Can't click on one of them like you probably can in the PC.

Insane difference! Almost hard to believe you had 75% res in the first video even, lol.

High cold res & absorb will be mandary on HC with this build.

Hi I did not read the forum before posting. I just made a thread about killing mini-ubers: forums/uber-duriel-with-mirror-blade-wa ... 77948.html Do you have any comments about mini ubers?

I really like the "immortal" build

I had the ubers on players 8! I'm such an idiot. Hephasto tanked them on players 1 and I was able to mirror

Blade them to Death.

New video, with 125 fcr. Super duper fast clears now.

What gear are you using?

I play SSF and have a pretty well geared (for SSF) Warlock but I can't kill them nearly that fast even on /players 1.

My current gear:

• Arioc's Needle (+ 30% Enhanced Damage Jewel)
• Harlequin Crest (For the +2 skills and some resistance on the socket)
• Authority
• Spirit
• Trang-Oul's Claws
• Horazon's Legacy
• Mara's Kaleidoscope
• 2 Rare rings with good resistancs
• Tons of resistance charms
• Gheed's Wager
• Cursed Pet Demon

I'm hitting the 75% Faster Caster Rate.

I show all the gear at the end of the video but it's
* Insight in CV
* 2/20/ar

Helm
* 2 ammy with lots of lightning res (so I don't have to

Fade anymore)
* Spirit
* Enigma
* bul-kathos / rare with res
*

Snowclash to not kill myself against meph
*

Trang-Oul's Claws
* rare

Boots with res

I do have Pride in my merc and demon with curse on him.

I've done the ubers on my fire warlock and its very safe and easy, just not super fast.

Mephisto takes the longest but

Baal and Diablo go down quickly

Added a mini ubers video with the new setup too

Find a narrow hallway or doorway so youre blocking your minions from walking past you, then summon+

Consume double tap facing through the doorway away from your other minions.
