The description of EA in the patch notes was rewritten to correct several inaccuracies in the description of how it functioned. That may have unintentionally also removed the explicitly display of a number, but that doesn't mean the number was taken off the gem, just that the patch notes no longer explicitly specified it's value.

As a side note, the explosion deals attack damage, which means it fundamentally includes the base attack damage (which comes from your bow). If it didn't have an explicit amount of scaling on that, the default would be 100% of base damage, not 0%, so if this had actually reflected a functional change, it would be a huge buff, not a nerf.

So general attack modifiers will scale the explosion damage.

I wanted to make an explosive arrow build this league and I saw this one and was really interested in using the Trickster ascendancy. I like a lot of the ideas you used for yours, but I modified it some so I thought I'd share it here.

Devouring Diadem is one of my favorite items and I've used it in at least one build each league since it came out. I figured I'd give this build a shot as Life EB/MoM.
My thoughts were that the combo of the mods on the helm (EB, chance to start recharge, and feast of flesh) along with the fire leeched as ES node would get rid of any mana problems. So far wicked ward has not been necessary. Also being able to reserve all my mana I'd be able to get more defense running the blind aura from flesh and stone alongside grace, as well as more burn dmg running malevolence. Being able to run a rare quiver helps a lot too. The new jewel from awakener lets me run Phase Acro without having to run perfect form or acrobatics which would reduce my ES, so the rare hits I do take go through Kintsugi's dmg reduction.
I've been doing red maps at this point. I really need to push my atlas and get to some bosses to see how it holds up, but so far it's working pretty well from a dmg and defense perspective.


Here's my gear:

Question, I've been using Thief's Torment as a placeholder while levelling but noticed it really helps with the mana issue, do you think it would be wise to continue using it or should I switch to normal rings and use mana flask instead?

Btw I really like the build, thank you.

I also used theif's torment while leveling but I think two rare rings deal more damage, provide more defence and outweigh the loss of a flask on this build.

Hi. How good is this build? Will it help me close the atlas? There are no plans to go to the main boss, not my skill level.

t15 not max metamorph - 3 death. unlucky evade mod on map, and you dead.

Here's some bosses/metamorphs. Dmg isn't bad, trying to get to some bigger bosses to see how it does.
