Uber Ancients builds (post 3.3)

Sounds good. An no need to worry about Merc, so no annoying prebuff for him
Goblin Toe absolutely required, besides Guillaume only source for CB.

I think Schinzilord's build with CoH and Metalgrid doesnt need prebuffing for max resistances. My build doesnt need prebuffing too, but I am using Kira + LW. With Guardian Angel, Guillaume and Grief, you will need prebuff.

Just a quick comparison between our builds:
My build has 95 cold, fire, light and 90 poison, vs Schinz's 80 fire and cold, 85 light and 75 poison. I got 30% ctc Life Tap, vs 15%. I got 80% chance for CB, vs 50%. His build gives more non CB damage though. So probably his build has slower starts because of lower chance for CB but better end for higher non-cb dmg. Maybe also my higher ctc for Life Tap and more resistances are unnecessary because summit guys are not that dangerous in the end and you can fight ubers one by one. CoH is also much cheaper than Last Wish.

And again, no, unfortunately. Survivavbility and damage are there, but just not enough. They keep moving and healing, and eventually cta wears off, and they get me.

Record and upload gameplay footage and show everything, we can't diagnose what you're doing wrong otherwise.

Hi Gangseng, I am happy to join your game and let‘s try it out together. Of course just out of curiosity. Ping me in Bnet.
I guess you have a damage problem. Fanaticism and Grief and 60% CB should do the job easily, this is a matter of 20-30 seconds per ancient

String of Ears is bad for fighting the Uber Ancients. Life leech does not work with Smite and the Uber Ancients do predominantly elemental damage, so the physical damage reduction is also lost.

Use Tgods. Use Exile. Only use Fanaticism if you can keep up 295 res without Salvation. Otherwise: Salvation.

...

For the fastest attack speed breakpoint for Smite use a PB Grief with 35+ ias, a 15 ias jewel and a 20 ias amulet (Highlord's is ok but deadly strike is not working. I prefer The Cat's Eye).

Speaking for myself on offline SP without the ability to trade - I think I'd rather just use Fanaticism because the extra attack speed required to make up for Fanaticism is way harder to come by than the extra resists.

65 IAS required to hit the 6FPA Smite breakpoint without Fanaticism vs only 8-10 (IIRC) IAS required with if using any PB base weapon - that's alot of IAS to make up for if you ask me and it seems like way more of a hassle trying to come up that extra IAS than it would to come up with extra res.
