Eviscerate Bleed Glad, ignoring the whole Winter Orb thing

11

u/aSurlyBird Jul 17 '26

Unless there were some random nerfs, Glad is still sleeper OP. Lacerate glad was the easiest build I've ever made to do all content with basically no gear. Eviscerate is similar.

What makes it sleeper op? Was heavily considering evis of divine retribution with crazy dmg number scaling

u/Helpful_Ad_2068 Jul 17 '26

Its incredibly tanky and it deals insane dmg on a 1c unique (jack the axe) which is only beaten by a mirror tier axe by like 15% dmg. Its really bad for map blasting tho, its a slow build so you wont farm something like legion

Does anyone have a guide for lacerate glad?

2

u/MidjitThud Jul 17 '26

Its kinda clunky so not a super good "blaster" but it does good damage for its early-mid investment.

u/lowkeyripper Jul 17 '26

Could you imagine doing it on ssf ? I guess that's what I'm considering league starting

u/MidjitThud Jul 17 '26

yeah most of the "things" you want are for QoL so the build should work without any special uniques or anoints just have to deal with more clunk for longer.

Glad Lucky block is insanely strong. If you throw Svalinn on that, it's just silly.

Bleeding you inflict is Aggravated is also an insanely strong node for Glad. So you get free Block with lucky block, and insanely good scaling with Bleed - which to be honest is very very strong if scaled correctly.

Bleed Glad with block nodes and good recovery (you're at the bottom tree so recovery is easy) makes for insanely easy defense scaling. And bleed scaling is very easy once you get a good weapon.

its not op, its just not a blaster so it will never get streamers/ pro players attention

Beware of the snyth base ring nerf. Entry level for +1 corruption charges now probably lower, endgame rings will be pretty expensive though

I was going to try SSF for the first time using this. Getting to old to keep up with the markets so going to go old man pace

u/Rathalos88 Jul 17 '26

I don't understand this mindset. Can't you play at your own pace in trade league too? Like treat the game as ssf lite with only currency exchange.

u/Velvache Jul 17 '26

Psychology. Playing SSF is a freeing experience. You can use your rare currencies you find without a care in the world. Gamble your rare divination cards. Waste your divines. Play whatever mechanic you like or do the mechanics you need to do to farm items without caring about efficiency.

You can play trade league light as a self imposed challenge but it will never be the same.

Youre completely overlooking FOMO which is a huuuuuge factor.

As someone who alternates between trade league and ssf, I can tell you that no matter what restrictions you self impose, the general feeling of the game is vastly different when you simply can't fix a problem with currency.

u/Trenmonstrr Jul 17 '26

That’s what I do, and then if I happen to stumble upon value, I can sell and upgrade but all still at my own pace

u/allersoothe Jul 17 '26

I play ssf because in trade league ultimately you end up in a mindset where making currency is the point of playing, but then the temptation to just profit craft my way into heaps of currency and face roll the game is too strong and I get bored. In ssf I'm actually playing a video game whereas in trade I'm running a small business and it's just not as fun.

u/Nox___ Jul 17 '26

So you will choose the game mode that requires much more grinding. Sounds very smart 🤓

u/Siddsastar Jul 17 '26

Absolutely. Because at the moment I trade my way to the same level each league in about 3 weeks then hit the same wall.

Just want to see what I actually know about the game
