" Gonna do that, what should i sacrifice ? stone golem or precision? Stone golem can lure attention away from me when i need to escape. "it must be a bug cause my resistances are all capped when i look on ''c'' " thats extremely strange as it didnt work on my 4 link, maybe its because the level was too high for CWDT? right now i replaced it with conductivity which actually worked. But after realizing that desecrate was supposed to cast automaticly, which one do you think is better between desecrate and conductivity? |

" Drop Inc Duration on Flame Dash, put Golem there, then you can leave Precision. Speaking of Flame Dash, your Arcane Surge is too high. At 20 with Faster Casting, Arcane Surge should only be level 7. Vendor it with a GCP and level back to 7 and then stop there. Then Arcane Surge procs with every cast of Flame Dash vs every like 15 at level 20. Pretty much up to you. Conductivity means more damage. Desecrate means corpses on bosses that don't have corpses so you can make use of VD leech. If you need more damage, use Conductivity.. otherwise use Desecrate for additional sustain. |

Could anyone look at my character (KubaTorbus) and help me picking the right stuff to upgrade/change? I'm feeling kinda lost with all the setups different people have, I was semi-following the guide since the league start and now I'm not sure which way would be best for me to commit to. Thanks in advance <3

Thanks for answering
Yeah I already did look at your char at PoB, pretty much a few times my effective DPS. I'll be on the lookout for a reasonable Shavronne's 6-L then and farm more currencies on the way. Just got a tranquility Chayula for 40C yesterday. " |

" Thank you so much for the detailed reply. May I ask how long does it usually take you to kill a boss with arc? I got excited when I saw your build because I've been meaning to do a toon with shield and looks like I don't have to try a completely new one. |

" I'd recommend switching to either Arc/BL only Tremor + Kaom's or if you have several exalts, LL Arc Mines. Both will be much tankier and the Atlas changes and metamorphs will require a bit more eHP in end-game. Going to assume you will swap to Tremor + Kaom's as it is much cheaper than LL switch: Try Minefield instead of Charged Mines in helm until you can swap to Tremor + Kaom's. Different variations to go with Tremor, but usually something like 21 Vaal Arc (Vaal is powerful for Legion and gives Lucky Arc buff which is good for bosses), Minefield, Trap & DMG, Controlled Destruction, Inspiration/Added Light, Hypothermia, or some other combination. Don't remember the Ball set-up offhand, but I think it uses Added Lightning and Slower Proj as a higher priority. Eventually better wands. Blight Spire has flat lightning to attacks, not to spells. Right wand is worse than that. My weapon is probably expensive to compare with, but putting 2 of them on your char added like 15-20% damage. Replace Essence Worm with a rare ring with life, res, and dmg as needed. Look into a good Conductivity on hit ring if you can afford it. Going to need like 36 STR too if using Kaom's and leaving all other gear the same (or use Passives if too expensive). New auras will then be Skitterbots, Precision 1, and low level Clarity as needed. Last change is passives from my own preferences: Remove Mystic Bulwark and 2 points for Ancient Iridescence jewel past Pain Attunement, path 3 INT near Throatseeker to Prodigal. Then remove 3 points from that jewel to Deep Wisdom, 2 unneeded mana between Prodigal and Mystic, and the 1 for MoM. 6 points to play with, 9 if you take out 3 for Arcane Will. From there, take all but 1 of the missed HP nodes, 3 for Crackling speed, and a 30 STR + Sanctity for Kaom's if needed. 93 gets the last 5% HP and should put you over 6k HP depending on the rare ring life. With Sanctity that is 700+ life regen/sec with 10 mines detonated recently. You lose quite a bit of mana, MoM, and like 5-10% damage from the passive change, but gain a huge chunk of HP to better scale the Kaom's and life on gear with 152% inc life. You'll also have like 760 mana unreserved, so can change auras as desired. Higher Clarity, add Herald, do something with Enlighten 3 and Wrath/Zealotry, etc. " Varies completely on map mods and metamorph mod parts. I've 1-shot several T16 metamorphs, and I've had to use like 3+ full sets of mines on some of the more juiced metamorphs. I should probably consider swapping in a High-Impact just for Conquerors, but not needed for rest of the content so far. |

" Yes, Elemental Focus will block Three Dragons. One or the other, not both. I'd probably save/sell the Awakened Elemental Focus and just use Minefield. Honestly not sure how Three Dragons works on Sirus as I figured he would be freeze immune. Maybe an Arc Damage enchant, Life, and - res helmet for bosses? Or could get a 21% Crown for more life and a bit less damage, but have to re-do some gear for res. Lab enchant on boots. 120% crit chance adds like 8% damage to your DPS. Better jewels. Foe Joe is basically life and throwing speed, not real damage. Heavily overcapped on cold res, not sure which slot would be easier to upgrade and lose cold res. But will lose the all res when upgrading jewels. Only other thing I can offer for the build is maybe a passive shuffle, but won't be a massive change. With Crown, you'd have like 6500 HP. Extra life, mana, similar DPS and swapping annoint to Counterweight gives you more damage. Could also try a different single target skill just for Sirus like Ball Lightning or Ice Spears? After some of the changes: https://pastebin.com/et2W52Vt You may also consider low life Arc Mines, but will require some investment. I can help you with that if you want to make the change: https://pastebin.com/T1TqD1Yz |

" Hey man, if I was to try to make the switch to an ES build, where should I begin? I’m kinda overwhelmed and discouraged at the moment because I spent a lot of time getting to this point only to realize it’s not going to cut it. Trying to optimize time spent and actually get somewhere and cut out the Kaoms/Tremor step. I can clear most tier 16s easy but I’ve been dying to some metamorphs and guardians like Minotaur and the like so it’s obvious something needs to be changed. Also I am on Xbox so certain things are nearly unobtainable like awakened supports don’t really exist and purchasing helmets with specific enchants just can’t be done. Thanks! |

" There are quite a few things the LL variation need and you miss the overall effect if you don't have them all and I don't know Xbox market to know how easy some of the stuff is to get. Probably would not recommend LL variation for you then unless you want to try fossil crafting some ES gear yourself with Dense fossils (find videos on YT, I bought most of my gear and just looked for prefix/suffix crafts). 50ish Regret Orbs - Probably have them yourself. Presence of Chayula - Big boost to ES, chaos res, and stun. Tranquility annoint is a lot of damage. Prism Guardian or high ES shield - Prism is a lot of damage from the extra auras, res, and dex . Or a 250+ ES shield can add up to like 1500 ES. Sin Trek - Flat ES, dex, movement speed. Rare boots with high ES can be used, but Sin's do a lot of good stuff. Lab enchant them yourself. Rings with good INT, ES/ES %, res, and damage/curse if you can get it. High ES helmet - Since enchant is not a thing, just aiming for at least 250-300 ES with solid res and maybe INT or add in some fossils for the - res. Gloves - You guessed it, more ES and res. Like 150+, and possibly damage like Silk Gloves or some of the other mods. Belt - Crystal Belt with additional flat ES, ES %, etc and res as you can get it. Just inspected your gear after writing all that stuff and I'm way too tired to correct it. Going to leave it in case it has something useful to you or other people considering to change. I have no idea where you are at with gearing as you are still wearing stuff with no ES, Essence Worm, etc. I'd recommend using PoB and importing the LL PoB I linked of my char on the last page to compare with your own import. Add-in your ES gear, re-do your passives all in the application and then make changes in the game to save you a lot of hassle. IE: Look at an ES armor for sale, import/craft it into PoB, compare the change it actually makes to your ES, and then buy it if is a worthy change. If you are not swimming in Dense Fossils or have a market to buy ES gear, I don't see you getting over 6-7k ES. Damage would probably go up, but still just as fragile to new atlas content as the life variant. |
