[Guide] The All-in-One LoN Bombardment Crusader

[izzylai]

I asked Jubisman/Xzjv about this, waiting to hear back from Xz since he apparently coded it.


Use invoker set, craft the base gear with cube, or have garbage gear and let bot gear for you at lower Grift levels.



No file changes recently, but I will probably be doing a huge update today. I found something super efficient.

Also, Sunkeeper is better actually because 30% damage to elites stacks multiplicatively with other damage % increases like physical and bombardment %. Here is the mathematical proof:

100 * 1.30 (elite) * 1.60 (physical) * 1.30 (bombardment) = 270.4

100 * 1.80 (physical) * 1.30 (bombardment) = 234

Good news about update(JUST DOOO IT) kappa

Oh my oh my. More efficient? can't w8

Good news about update(JUST DOOO IT) kappa

Updates posted.

I may update the item list and trinity settings file more later today. I want to do some testing.

OkOk but vit instead of the x-y dmg is better^^
Because wep dmg is irrelavant for this build...but up to +1000 vit is great!

This?


Another thing: I get atm better results with the trinity from SVN^^
Till which level you recommended to use the "speed" build? 70?

Good news about update(JUST DOOO IT) kappa

Good points, I updated them. Also, funny you mention SVN. I was actually updating my guide to include new SVN versions right as you said that!

As far as your question, I don't really think there is a level threshold, Swiftmount is just better for speedfarming until you aren't one or two shotting elites, then you need to switch to more powerful, but slower, gear.

Don't know what happened but my Crusader does not use Steed Charge in combat anymore. The last couple of days it was running Grifts (70) but today after restarting my computer he is using the auto attack instead. Did try to fix it and performed a fresh install using your guide (a few minutes ago with the SVN stuff) without success. Anyone else got this problem?

btw. why do I get the 2.14.30 Trinity version using your SVN link?

Make sure you delete the contents of the folders before you sync SVN.

 

[Gigofar]

Tryed many installs but it's still waiting 10-20 sec to use Steed when avable :s

Edit: I don't have all the requiered stuff as i just started a new Crusader. But it was working earlier in the day.

Did you changed anything in trinity settings?

Question...

I have crappy gear but paragon level 1150, I manage to get 66.5% CDR but for some reason, bot is not spamming bombardment and its not keeping steed charge up all the time.

I don't have all the right slot item yet, for example like my cube is missing The Mortal Drama, and on my crusader, I am only using CDR items, I don't have any BIS item yet...

Is that the reason why the build is not working?

 

[gauthierjoc]

Is it strong for multi boxing 2x Crusader

my crusader clear 75 easy with your settings

should i Multi box with another CRUSADER or BARB ?

if its a barb, do you have a specific build or what kind of barb at least ?

Unfortunately, you need most of these [ancient] items in order for this to work. You can get away with a few non-ancient, but I imagine the cubed items are non-negotiable. The Mortal Drama, for example, doubles your Bombardment impacts (which practically, or literally, doubles your damage.) Don't worry, you will get there!

I am surprised you chose to update to the latest Trinity. Did you find the elite/orb skipping wasn't really a problem anymore?

Edit: Added quote to avoid double posting.

 

[Mr McGibblets]

As far as waiting for CoE goes, if we are always waiting to cast bombardment just before it goes into earth during the lightning phase. Why not have it cast this every time that comes around? We built the cooldown reduction so that this can be done but yet we don't except for when 10+ mobs are around. Is there really any harm in changing bombardment minimum to 1 instead of 10?

 

[Fisher67]

To those having issues, the build works almost perfectly. You are doing something incorrectly, such as not having the required items or skills. See the troubleshooting section of the guide.

Did you changed anything in trinity settings?

If "Last edited by" changes, always assume I changed Trinity settings.

I don't multibox, so I don't know. I would imagine 2x Crusader or 1x Crusader + 1x zDPS would be an effective 2 player combo. Check the leaderboards fro good matchups.

I am surprised you chose to update to the latest Trinity. Did you find the elite/orb skipping wasn't really a problem anymore?

On about 90% of my runs using SVN, this is what my progress bar running Grift 75 looks like:

It seems to skip much less than it did, but at this point the occasional skip isn't going to make a huge difference. The combat and movement on SVN also seems to run more smoothly. This is why I decided it was ok to update to the latest versions.

Working as intended. Ideally, you want to preserve all of your cooldowns for the earth phase and only initialize the combat cycle if you have a worthy target. A single mob is not a worthy target, you would be wasting time waiting for CoE.

 

[Gigofar]

Well i will keep your well done guide till i can gear my Crusader proprelly.
Do you have any working build to gear this toon ?

Thx for your work

 

[Sylencer90]

My crusader doesn't use iron skin on elites or rift bosses, is this normal? Im currently botting on a new char with some crap gear and trying to get a basic t10 built to advance in gear and get to do higher grifts.

 

[Klopper987]

Make sure you delete the contents of the folders before you sync SVN.

did that without success -.- sometimes its using Steed Charge but mostly he is just using standard auto attacks

Edit
I tried the DB version 454 and the newest BETA build but my Crusader is not using Steed Charge properly -.-

 

[jensenbeach772]

hey Fisher67 what torment is the best to do for getting a ancient illusory boots you think ? i know it's random but what you think

go Bounties, illusory boots is one of your reward.

this one I don't understand:\ Could u pls explain it in a simple way about this svn update, sync?

Open folder, select all, delete, yes. Go back right click on the folder, Update ?

 

[BuckNekkid]

I'm super confused about what SVN is.
Does it affect how the bot works in a positive way or can i just keep using the normal trinity/adventurere?

SVN is pretty much a way to keep stuff updated without having to copy/paste/unzip. it uses a repository (online, URL) and if you hit the "Update SVN" on the contextual menu it'll update it from the URL, if update there is. You also have a built-in changelog
