hello YouTube, this is BM again, and uh today we're bringing you a little bit of a recap on our lightning strike character. I'm going to say straight off the bat, this isn't my build idea. This entire build I straight up copied, or at least as best as I could, from FB gun. This is FB gun's version of this build that I followed. Um, I am going to link to his videos and channel in the description here because if you want to follow this build, you should probably follow it from that channel instead of from me because, you know, trying to make a copy of a copy of a copy of a copy eventually it gets bad, right? But still, we're going to go over why I made it. First, I made it because we made several failure characters in a row and I just wanted to feel powerful for a while, and oh Lord does it feel strong. Uh, this thing made an absolute breeze of tier 17 maps. Uh, I don't think I've ever done tier 17s that easy. Uh, part of that will be because of

the tier 17 Nerf. But even taking that into account, this feels like one of the fastest and strongest characters to do tier 17s in. It's very tanky, it can ignore a whole ton of map mods, it can ignore all map mods in regular mapping, tier 16s, and whatnot. Every map mod, just run everything, never look at it. Great tier 17s. There are few things I avoided. I avoided pen and minus Max because those are just dangerous to everyone. I avoided drowning orbs because I'm blind, my eyes don't work, and I can't Dodge them. I also avoided petrifying statue because, again, I'm blind, my eyes don't work, I can't see them, and they just stop me, and that's annoying. But other than that, I did pretty much everything, tons of those, did all my challenges with this one. So we're, we've got all of our challenges done now, and we're complete. So let's jump in game and have a look at it. Right here we are, here is the

lightning strike character quite speedy. This is a head hunter build. This works as a League start on zero budget. You do not need to head on to start it. FB gun does have a lot of progression videos and crafting videos on his channel, so if you're really interested in seeing that at various different stages, you can go through that one. I obviously jumped straight to this because I had the money to do so. Why would I start early? A few things that I want to point out. One sort of looks like a relatively weak claw because it is only 670 DPS, and that feels pretty low. However, it's not. Two reasons. One's hit can't be evaded, means I can be blind. There's a whole bunch of map mods ignores. Also means I don't need any accuracy. Does take up a prefix. That's why the damage is so low. We make up that damage through murdering eye Jewels, Head Hunter Buffs, all sorts of stuff to the enchant we're using. There's a relatively important enchant. It's not raw damage. It doesn't

give me any damage actually, and the uh enemies killed by your hits are destroyed. Doesn't even have an explosion on it, so why don't I use it? Pretty simple. Um, Stig and detonating dead boxes. We did the uh the Box Strat in tier 17s to make a ton of money. We did make a ton of money. We did drop a in cor's lock amongst many many many many puzzle boxes and divines. So that was all good. Uh, other than that, the gear on this thing is absolutely disgusting. We did get Pi here. We got Pi on the implicit here and on the craft there, giving us three PS total. I skipped the PS nodes on the tree because of that. We got the most disgusting lethal Pride that you can possibly get, where I get two rage on hit and intimidate. Uh, you really only need one rage on hit and intimidate. Uh, this is definitely Over the Top. If you're doing this, you're looking for intimidate and one rage on hit. That's enough. That's enough. If you're going to go into

multiple like a mirror, disgusting budget or whatever. Sure, you can go for two range on hit. One was fine though, one was fine. This was Overkill. We got lucky on that one. You absolutely don't need it. Also, flasks are up for debate. AR end is explode. It's just real nice. Dying Sun's uptime probably 70 to 80% uptime while mapping. So, that's an extra two projectiles, which is really nice 'cause you know, more projectiles always better. Originally, if I kept playing this, I was going to go into dying sun, which is when I would really, really want the uh, sorry, dying Sun. I was going to go into nimus, which is when you would really, really want the dying sun because they will all fire randomly. But I didn't make it that far, not because I got sick of this car, but because I got deathly sick of doing the Box Strat in tier 17s. I found that very boring and I just don't need to be this powerful if I'm not doing tier 17s. So, what else have we got here?

anything else of interest. Oh, the other thing worth noting is, uh, these fan, the blades clusters, 20 to 25 Diva piece. You absolutely don't need them. In fact, the baby clusters, which again, you can find in FB gun's videos, baby clusters actually do more damage than this and are significantly cheaper, but they don't come with the extra projectiles. So, missing two projectiles is, you know, I mean, we've got enough, we got enough projectiles anyway right now. We fire seven. You'd go back to firing five without them. That's all. It's still five projectiles. It's perfectly fine, perfectly fine. But yeah, so build was a lot of fun. Very much enjoyed it. Uh, for anybody wondering, the Box Strat also came from FB gun. It was his build. I did his Strat to go with it, and the box strp was pretty damn simple. It was one of every single Ambush Scarab and then a tree look like this, and it's just beyond and boxes and every single increased effect node and every single Scarab node that I could.

find uh with a little bit of a tip towards dropping Ambush for myself. That's the whole tree, but yeah, fun build. Really enjoyed it. Did every challenge. Couldn't suggest it enough, but border the tier 17 Farm. Going to go making another character. Going to go find some other Farms to do to make more money. Uh, no idea how I'm going to sell off this character because it is very expensive. I got some real expensive stuff on here, so that should be fun. But that is all I have. The next buildup is going to be a ward stacking build of some kind. We'll see. I want to do some Ward stacking stuff. It seems very, very cool. So stay tuned for that, and I will see everybody next time. Goodbye.
