Also, my staff at the moment is a 6 slot (got really lucky there! :D with 3 blue, 2 red, and 1 yellow, should I keep it like that for a while or should I try to get 3 blue 3 red and try to connect them all. If so, what method would you recommend?)

EDIT2: Also, in the skill tree, is it still recommended to go for avatar of fire as I haven't got the fire support gem connectable atm. Wouldn't it just be a dps loss?

You only need Scorching ray to be linked to Cast while channelling, the rest of the support gems work without being linked to each other. So just get 3 blue and 3 red (you lack Fire penetration gem) sockets on your WI, take Avatar of Fire and have fun :)
p.s. That socket is not yellow, it's green :D

Ah, thanks a lot. I thought in order for the fire penetration to work for scorching ray as well I'd need it to be connected to that one.

In order to get the last slot to be red (thanks for correcting me on the green socket slot, can't see it since I'm colourblind, prevents future confusion :p), is there any way to do that without messing up the already existing slots?

I've tried to watch some crafting guides and think I saw people doing something in their hideout with a master, but couldn't quite understand what exactly was happening there.

Edit: got lucky, think my staff is close to perfect now :D

You may add or delete socket using Vorici's (Artisan's) bench, you pay with jewelers instead of chromes, it's a good idea if you want to get right colours on 4S gear like boots or gloves, but 6S is way more expensive - 350 jewelers to craft 6 sockets. And getting 3B + 3R on WI is not a big deal, i spent 3 chromes :D
Edit: useful Vorici calc: https://siveran.github.io/calc.html

aah, thanks a lot. Will add her to my hideout soon then :)

Also thanks for the calculator, bookmarked it.
Didn't know about that tool yet.

Thanks for all the help guys!

I noticed my damage is really lacking as compared..

Sitting at 3292 - 9755 (with golems and pendulum)

Sitting on 1622 int,7.8k ES

Please do advice on what i could improve on!

Thanks

I'm going to try shaper with this build, it would also be my first time challenging the shaper.

I currently sit at 9.3k ES. I'm a bit worried about slow movement speed to dodge the beam with leapslam.

If anyone who has experience with this build and shaper, appreciate you checking my profile for recommendations on it or the fight itself and any further stats I may need.

Don´t try to facetank his big Slam, it does about 14-15K.....just leap and go away, and good luck!! i´ll try at lv94 when i finish this build and hope to try about 9.1k or so.

Oh and just see that video against Shaper he put Purity of Ice and remove Warlor. Mark.

no, thats the worst idea. the whole shaper slam thing is a huge damage opportunity that you need to take advantage of.

for shaper, my suggestion is the following:

1.: bring at least one quicksilver flask of adrenaline, perhaps two. you need those to dodge the beam and to get close to him whenever he starts casting the yellow balls. those yellow balls must be dodged since they have too high damage to be facetanked. (they have 25% cold res penetration, so that they cant be cheesed with purity + sapphire flasks or something like that...)

2.: bring one granite and one basalt flask, both with reduced flask charges used. the basalt must consume 30 charges on use; i.e. the reduced flask charges roll must be high enough to give the flask two uses instead of one. whenever you see the shaper initiating his teleport slam, start casting icestorms on top of you and pop the granite and the basalt. with 9k+ ES, you should absolutely be able to tank it. if you have fortify up, you definitely can, but even without it, it should work.

3.: replace the doedres damnig with dream fragments and remove temp chains from your setup!! against the minion portal, the vortex balls, the yellow balls, the teleport slam and the total chaos phase (duh), temp chains doesnt do anything at all or not enough to allow you to facetank the shaper. so the curse is relatively useless. it helps against his autoattack, which you can facetank/outleech anyway. it might help you dodge the yellow balls or the beam, but if you always facetank him and use the quicksilvers, its absolutely not needed.

by using dream fragments, you cant get frozen or chilled, so that you can move around the arena freely and wont miss a dodge due to being chilled. you wont run out of anti freeze flasks mid fight (which would lead to you getting owned by the ground vortexes.) you wont miss damage by being slowed down. dream fragments makes the fight soooo so much easier.

Hi all,
Just wanted to thank the author of the build post.
I'm still at lvl 81 and lacking several items / passives / Ascendancy points etc, but already at T10 maps(dying sometimes of course, but not much). Dropped my Saboteur at lvl 82 that did T6 maps with big struggle.
Thanks a lot ! Hope for additional cool , cheap and easy to follow guides from you.

Every strong blow freezes me. I can not understand why. Even immortal call does not help =(

freeze or shock or stun?
make ur acc open, we can't look on ur gear and tree.
if u going freeze - u need any flask whits freeze removing.
if u are shocked - shock remover flask.
if u are stunned - look in ur tree for "unwavering stance".

Exactly freeze. I have no idea why. I've open my account.

Btw, Kelvynn put a boss guide:

(337th page) Well I can tell this will be super helpful to people now... but 15-16% int talisman's must have dropped price since this guide was written, I got one with 6% physical reduction and one with 25 int and a good res on it for around 30ish c each.

15-16% gets to be better than Astramentis some point in the 60's.

Guys, how about WI with 0.2 cold damage leech as life as implicit roll?

Do you think it is good to have instead of %18 block ?
