Anyone know what the suggested bandit reward for this build in 3.0?

It's written literally on the 1st page of this thread. Ctrl+F + type "bandit"

Why last gem is elemental focus not fire penetration?
As i understand high lvl bosses have 75% res. With 21 lvl flammability it will be 30% res, so with 21 lvl FP it give 54% more damage.
21 lvl EF give 50% more damage and cancels burning damage.

Because it's not optimal with inquisitor i guess, since critical strikes will anyway ignore resists ?

Damn iDeeps, how were you able to get a 6 link so quick? lol.......

I can't decide between this and SRS for my starter build :/. I feel like this is tankier, but no idea in terms of lategame damage?

hi forum,

simple question, how do you get the required DEX for your items? (ex. dagger ...)

First time running this build ever, just using as a league starter. Works well but I find the damage a little lacking. I'm only 73 though and have only gotten 3 of my ascendancy done, still need uber.

Are there any ways to really scale up this damage, or is it basically capped out by cast speed/spell damage slots on your gear?

Just wanting some advice on what I can do to get the damage up.

Thanks.

Here's a recap of the last ~20 pages when it comes to using GC instead of FlameBlast in 3.0, but there's still also a few things that could use more details and confirmations.

Gem changes
FlameBlast: Faster Casting / Inc Crit Strikes
GC: Physical to Lightning / Inc Crit Damage (is inc damage better than strikes here?)
Auras: Anger (FlameBlast) switches to Hatred (GC)

Questions
1. Bandits? Still sticking with killing everyone (still some confusion)?
2. Do any skill nodes change, perhaps due to not needing as much cast speed?
3. Should we ascend to Heiro for 4 totems (most people seem to think yes)?
4. Since this is using life/MoM now and not ES, the gear section could use an update.
5. Anything else worth mentioning about using GC in HC?
6. Pros and cons vs daggers/shield/scepter combos in the context of HC?
