[2.6] The Curse Whisperer - Tri-Curse CI Whispering Ice Elementalist - Viable for Everything
|
for those who wonder about other's tooltip damage and how to get there:
mine: https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/1667730/page/180#p14042598 " so if I was using the exact setup kelv recommended in his guide, my avg damage would stand at 10075 damage, with a cast time of 0.32 seconds. that is with lvl 95, 1870 int, almost perfect jewels and gear that today would have a combined worth of around 40ex. and yes, past a certain point, you will need to use the emperor's mastery and emperor's wit jewels to push the damage in a significant way. cant afford or dont want to buy those? expect a loss of some 500-1k avg damage. only lvl 85 instead of 95? thats another 500 avg damage less. want to spec into unwavering stance instead of relying on boot enchants or some other shenanigans? another 300 avg damage lost. want to use SR + CWC instead of SE + CD? another loss of tooltip. (that is made up, at least in parts, by the fire res debuff applied by SR...) only using 20/0 or 19/20 gems instead of 20/20s or even 21/20s? thats another 300-500 avg damage that you lose. the most important rule for pimping up damage numbers on this build: everything. adds. up.

" Can't say much except my INT is ~120 higher - maybe better jewels? |

Maybe I'm using bad jewels. Could you critique my items? i'm level 88 and sitting at roughly 5.5k on the top end:

" Nothing changes in the tree. Keep following the leveling guide. Of course CE gives more damage than CD. But the radius of Icestorm is smaller with CE. So you may prefer CD for map clearing and swap it for CE for bosses. " 5k ES at lv 70 is not 'extremely low' at all. 5k ES is fine for everything up to T12-13. Of course in HC you probably want to be safer, but low tier maps are no problem at all with 5k ES. Don't facetank Merc or Uber Izaro with 5k ES. But he's easy enough to dodge. " Your characters are hidden. " It's only 'lag' for those with old/low-end video cards. If your friends can't handle Icestorm - that's too bad. It means they can't handle Discharge, most CoC builds and a lot more. But there is no other skill to use with this build. It's designed exclusively for Icestorm and nothing else will work with it. " It depends on the content you want to do. You don't need Fortify for anything lower than T15. Or eventually at all if your gear gets to the godly level and you can do T16 without Fortify. But if you want to do T16 in a new league and you are not rich then Fortify is a life saver. But if you aren't planning on doing T16 then you just have 3 empty sockets (4 if you use CwC, you don't need Enlighten with CwC) for whatever you like. " You made a number of custom modifications to the build and they are not good. We get 'so much dmg' by following the build. ;) " That first (corrupted) jewel is not good, only 2 mods that matter. You can find better for cheap. The other 2 jewels are kinda Ok, but low end (38 and 42 value) and could use an upgrade. See Gear-Jewels. You will get 1 more jewel at lv 91-92, it'll help. Your gems are 19/0. The difference between that and 20/20 is bigger than you might think. Последняя редакция: Kelvynn#6607. Время: 2 янв. 2017 г., 03:04:43

Just wanted to pick your brain a bit on how to value jewels. If you have the first corrupted gem at a 30 value and other at a 38-42 value, how would you value izaro? would you value a perfect izaro (25 fire and 25 ice) as a 50 value? Or would you say its a bit lower since it doesn't give intelligence. if cold dmg is worth 1 point, would int also be worth 1 point? I just rechecked my tooltip and i'm at 5800 dps.
After leveling gems and upgrading jewels, what would be the next thing I'd need to upgrade to prep for the shaper fight? I have roughly 6ex of currency I can spend now on upgrades. |

You dont need 20 lvl gems coz of +1 from WI. Most support gems 21 lvl=20 lvl.

@kelvynn:
since you're playing as berserker this season: how do you feel about having stun immunity only when you've killed recently? I personally have been a proponent of "we dont really need unwavering stance", so I'd be curious what you think about the "4s stun immunity" vs "permanent stun immunity". |

Eeeeem, guys, I got a problem. I'm so nooby I know, but I don't know what to do now. I got 70 lvl and bought body armour 5l for all my 60 c o. It seemed for me that these build needs to be 6L (I don't know why )) ). I spent 150 fusings and got 2L chest ((. Now I'm run out of currency and my chest is not appropriate for gems. What should I do guys ? I even can't farm with it

" you don't need links to run the build. You need a 6 socketed whispering ice - put your gems in there, they don't need more than 3l, 4l is preferred - read the first page again. €: You can get by with a 4l chest for your CWDT setup. You can do CWDT+vortex+coh+enfeeble for starters. Последняя редакция: anone#5619. Время: 2 янв. 2017 г., 07:08:11

" You can do low tier maps without the gem setup in your body armour. As long as your chest is 6 socket you can keep all your gems in it and lvl them. If you link your chest again keep the next 4l and use CWDT - Ball Lightning - Curse on Hit - Enfeeble until you have more fusings to link your chest again to get the 5l. |
