[CIGGARC] Act 3 - Siegebreaker with Death Handling and Checkpoints

I also can handle this although not in my mf gear, Just wanted to say thanks and cant wait till you xtend the profile. let me know if u need any testing on the new one

 

Is there profile for your lists below? Any link ? Thanks
The Skycrown Battlements by Gardettos
Stonefort by Gardettos

umm the first page, the siegebreaker ver .05 download the zip and the plugins. as for the copy paste of the code for rad's plugin that's not needed now since he updated it and gave us a nice little slider bar

Hi, been testing this profile for about 3 hours today. And one problem which slows down the run alot is that it focuses on the creeps that are revived by the Fallen Prophet. And if there are 5 of the Fallen Prophets, each of them reviving 1 creep, its almost takes infinite time to kill them and move on. Lol, hope Giles could do something about that?

Area is Skycrown or Skyfort btw.

 

Well we can look at the other zones i guess. I have to talk abit with gardettos and we will see what we can come up with!

 

please thansk

 

So it wouldnt be possible to add like Bastion's Keep or Core? Sry if its noobish question

 

Isnt keep random? and core is long after siegebreaker, this profile is kinda made to kill siegebreaker

 

you could use this same profile but instead of siege start on the quest before killing azmodan, then you'd have a few more static areas to do and im sure someone has already code'd azmodan.

 

ok yea keep is random I think. Was thinking about like heart of the cursed and all those lvls. I think they have like two different maps for those, that doesnt count as random or?
Cus if it were possibly to add those it would be like 10 more elite packs. Cus killing SB with the like 4 stacks isnt that good. Elites will give almost the same loot

 

Love this - my barb is tearing act 3 apart. VERY rarely dies, like once every 2 hours.

 

what build and stats is your barb running? want to gauge how I should gear mine, thanks

 

These stats are self buffed with Rage, Cry and passives:

45k hp
9000 armor
24k DPS
1550 life on hit
1250 resist all
25% block (stormshield - so also the reduced dmg)
16% crit

 

Been thinking about trying some act 3 botting myself, current stats:
49k hp
9085 armor
29.7k dps
842 life on hit
1200 resist all
29% block

With buffs, obviously Looking forward to giving it a go!

 

General question, what is the most important stat to boost for Act 3 farming?

I am at:
38kHP
30k DMG
20%crit
100%critDmg
1000Resist buffed
8000Armor (before iron impact)
250%MF pre NV

When moving my bot from Act 1 to Act 2, I was doing poorly. I did one thing, swapped my gem in helm for a +%life gem and boosted vitality by 100 in another item slot and my hp went from 29k to 39k, and Act 2 went smoothly after that.

Would simply boosting HP again to closer to 50k be enough to smooth out Act 3?

My biggest problem with Act 3 is the bot isnt using Rend smart enough. With Belphegor it seems to wait until it needs the HP lifesteal before it casts it, instead of starting every fight with it thus keeping HP high, it waits for HP to go low then doesnt recover fast enough. W/o Belph it cant kill Siegebreaker (just runs around it with Giles)

Does anyone use defensive passive skills in Act 3? Or just the Dmg bonus ones?

 

125k dps
55k hp
1k all res
1k life on hit.
250 mf UNBUFFED.
Nuff said.

 

my stats are almost identical to yours. are you running bash/rend build or ww?

 

Omg I am still using Frenzy, has everyone swapped frenzy for bash?

 

my Barb current stats. 2-3 deads / h
33kHp
25k dmg
18% crit chance
163 % crit dmg
1300 Loh
1000 all res buffed
11 k armor buffed
270% mf with NV

With giles combat replacer my barb dont hit siegebreaker. Now im testing http://www.thebuddyforum.com/demonbuddy-forum/combat-routines/58270-belphegor-test-release.html.
slightly slower than giles combat replacer but my barb now can hit siegebreaker and rend work very well.

 

I'm running with the frenzy build in Giles Combat post (2nd post), just replaced overpower with earthquake.
