Okay but srsly they work really well for me in basically every game I play. Heck, the build I’m working on is a glass cannon
If I can get a good explanation, then I might reconsider, but I’m just so damn confused
I don’t hate glass cannons, they’ll just never be as good as defense builds.
AHAHAHAHA
seriously though.
i dont know of any glass cannon hate
defence is arguably the most important stat in the game right now even after nerfs is the predominant reason why they’re unfavourable
your build isn’t even too great of a glass cannon too, you waste tons of random substats instead of building a tiny bit into defence (1441 total hp is just not viable whatsoever, if you really want to dedicate yourself to being a glass cannon - you still have to try around 1.6k-1.7k)
it took me about 10 seconds to make a build with slightly more power, more defence, less intensity (because i and many others find it rather redundant in the high hundreds) and no wasted substats (alongside investment in ap - because of the fact i saw you used scorched sentinel - you reap what you sow)

Thing is power and intensity are the main things I want
Plus I wasn’t much going for piercing - I find that when making builds, if regeneration, resistance, or piercing come up, then so be it, but I never actively seek them
I do imagine I could tweak this to work better though, can you show me the components?
Btw by this do you mean that at that point not much is changing
doesn’t mean you should neglect defence
yesi don’t think it can mean anything else
then don’t use gear that gives you piercing???
you have enough armour options to avoid items which give unnecessary stats - and better options overall for items (who in their right mind uses a sorcerer hat and royal dress bottoms?)
didnt save it just recreate it apologies
Wasn’t tryna
Problem is it was my highest option in terms of power and intensity
Good for power and intensity
That’ll be fun to work out
the thread title is “whats with all the hate on glass cannons”
most overall efficiency > highest option
you have more stats fundamental to your build than the ones you wish to build into
The build wasn’t meant to be a glass cannon, it just ended up being one, but it’s how I play most games but I see a lot of hate so wanted to understand
I don’t understand
you want to build into power and intensity, but every build in the game needs a decent amount of defence due to the nature of the game, hence it needs to be factored in for your build to be viable despite whatever high stats you achieve in power & intensity
hence why the threshold which i considered a “glass cannon” was 1600-1700hp, because anything below just shouldn’t be ran whatsoever
Right, master plan/criteria for making my new build
140+ power
120+ intensity
500+ defense but aim for 700+ realistically if possible
0 drawback
No more than 2 insanity
If anything else comes into it unintentionally then f*ck it we ball
