Warrior/Knight Thunder/earth Alkatraz Build

This may sound stupid and contradictory, I thought the same. But after I put everything together I realized it's actually pretty good.

Weapon:
Alkatraz (obviously)
Alkatraz is renowned for it's ability to do INSANE damage, but with the downfall of being dirt-slow.

Armor:
Helmet:
Cancer
Cancer (was) used in Cactus builds because of the poison/lifesteal, or any build really, because of the attack speed glitch. The downfall here is the huge damage reductions.

Chestplate:
Taurus
Taurus is used in Melee builds, and you can clearly see why. It gives you MASSIVE melee boosts with some strength and exploding, but at the cost of attack speed. That's exactly why I'm using Cancer.

Leggings:
Vaward
Vaward is used in rainbow builds due to it costing 0 skill points to use, having high health, and helping stats all around. This gives a much needed boost to spell/melee damage percents in order to combat the negatives in Cancer

Boots:
Virgo
Virgo was also used in Cactus builds because of the extremely high reflection and thorns. While basically being a mirror, you get some mana regen and tons of exploding.

Accessories:
Rings:
Malachite
I'm using Malachite because it gives good raw damage, dexterity and strength.

Bracelet:
Rycar's Bravado
Rycar's Bravado has very good strength and dexterity, with some agility and negative intel. We don't need intel anyway.

Necklace:
Coyote Crest
Coyote Crest gives us some nice raw melee damage, dexterity and agility.


Stats:
Health: 10350
Armor Powder Slots: 9
Weapon Powder Slots: 0 (rip)
Air Defense: -180
Earth Defense: +240
Thunder Defense: +220
Fire Defense: -150
Water Defense: -165
I've calculated the absolute maximum identifications (every ID on every item is 100% max) obviously you won't be able to get these exact stats.

Spoiler: Max Stats

Health Regen: +39%
Soul Point Regen: +13%
Mana Regen: +3/4s
Mana Steal: +2/4s
Life Steal: +325/4s

Spell Damage: -78%
Spell Damage: +78
Melee Damage: -52%
Melee Damage: +1332

Attack Speed: +6 tier (Super Fast attack speed on freakin' Alkatraz)
Walk Speed: -35%

Reflection: +98%
Thorns: +98%
You basically give the enemy a taste of their own medicine.

Exploding: +104% (Whatever you hit will explode)
Poison: +5000/3s (~1667 per second)

Strength: +53 (153 strength, insane damage.)
Dexterity: +22
Agility: +3
Defense +7

Fire Damage: -70%
Water Damage: -70%
Air Damage: -70%
Thunder Damage: -70%
Earth Damage: +13%

Earth Defense: +20

Strategy:
-Use Charge/Horse to move.
-ALWAYS use War Scream before fighting (you should anyway, right..?)
-If you're low on health, spam War Scream to regen, you have pretty good life steal, might as well use it.
-Most damage will come from Uppercut, but Bash does Earth Damage (which you're using). Use Uppercut>Bash (Bash when they hit the ground) another neat combo is Uppercut>Bash>War Scream, taking advantage of the life-steal from war-scream while they have slowness from Bash so they can't dodge it.
-Try and get up close with Melee. You have super-fast attack speed, super high melee damage, high crit chance, high health, high reflection and high thorns. What's stopping you?

 

Why Taurus? Taurus is terrible for this because it has a lot of raw melee which only works on neutral. Chestplate of ineptitude would be better (59% melee and +2 tier Also no Virgo how about war chief/mud. Also vaward isn't good for this you want earth breaker.

 

This is just a fun build idea that I made. I'll probably never use it.

 

Taurus actually does work without a weapon that does base neutral dmg it's just a visual glitch

 

About to test this

________________________________

Raw melee does not effect elemental damage.

 

I'm pretty sure the raw melee damage you are dealing is invisible, but still adds to the amount of damage you do per melee hit. The reason you can't see the extra 1300 melee damage from Taurus is because Alkatraz only deals earth damage. I've seen the same bug happen with nirvana when raw spell was added. I could be wrong, but if I am it's still bugged either way.

 

No I'm not dealing raw melee. Simple as that

 

The raw melee is invisible. The mob you are hitting is still taking the 1300 extra neutral damage, but it isn't appearing on your screen due to a bug with weapons that only deal elemental damage.

 

I made a full earth build for you since that's basically what you frickin asked for.

Armor:
Aries
Chestplate of Ineptitude
Earth Breaker
Warchief

Accessories:
Rockworm x2
Golemlus Core
Rycar’s Bravado

skill reqs: 100 str, 17 agi and 83 def (def because why don't you want to be a tank? you already spent all you could in strength)
max stats give +56 strength

6243-11616 damage on melee hits plus the strength damage boost
and 72% exploding chance

 

Dude Still use cancer because with what I said you can have +% melee and super fast

________________________________

Where in the video can you prove this? I want to see the time when I attacked and do the math myself if you are so sure. Raw melee does not effect elemental @Selvut283

 

It's a max melee damage build, not for atk speed specifically. But Cancer could still be used for sure.

 

That means it's bugged then. I don't know any more then that. Hopefully Selvut can explain

 

Sorry. I do.
