What's the best way to kill people like azmo or baal as trap rat?
Is there a specific weapon I can switch to for single target? Is there a craft I could make:? (please be very specific on what it needs since I'm guessing it's a CTC)
Thanks!!
If you're struggling with elemental pierce to get full output from your ele damage, then just make a pure physical setup and focus on crushing blow, deadly strike, and high physical damage.
Baal is not meant to be easy anymore, so a lot of people struggle with him the first few times around before you get familiar with how it works. Crafting a blade is a nice option. You can use Weird Shrines (more ed/flat damage), or Creepy shrines (crushing blow) or just go full abandoned shrines (%dex/flat dex/attack rating) since you get more damage and block from dexterity.
Quill Storm will not be so great against Baal simply because he teleports when he takes damage so often. Have you tried Thorn Wall? It has a better WDM percent and doesn't hit for a fraction of a sliver per quill (i.e. less teleporting, more damage hopefully).
Crafting a blade can also give you up to 30% slow target, so definitely look for that. I wouldn't bother with looking for a proc on striking, since the only ones on striking on blades will be Flamefront (really great if you have a lot of fire pierce and some fire spell damage) and Time Strike (delayed WDM attack, not terribly strong or reliable with how much he moves).
There isn't a whole lot you can do otherwise with SU's or RW's. SSU Dirk has some good defensive stats (lots of slow target) or Lo RW blade can give you 33% slow, but otherwise don't help your damage too much. Maybe look into making an Ix RW Blade
Rattus
. Life on Striking and 13% Crushing Blow is huge along with some flat damage.
