[Torment]1.3 Static Mosher-Detailed Pure Lightning Crit Staff Static Striker w/ video
" Area of Effect not only help Static Strike, but also Herald of Ash and its prolif, and Leap slam. Basically everything that we deal damage with. It's a good idea to start with scion and grab both side of the tree. But as a flicker you don't grab any of the templar elemental nodes, for my build those nodes are essential. They don't contribute to crit but give me base damage. Btw Smashing Strike gives endurance charges on crit instead of power charges, and it does work pretty well. 2.0 ain't no melee patch.

So I tried this with a respec and a staff I literally found yesterday. Turns out I hate the mechanics of SS, I kill the entire pack with one melee swing and burn prolif before the explosions actually happen. So I changed SS for LS and now it's going places.
My spec is different tho, it's not even remotely the same build anymore, but I'd like to share my findings.

As you can see, I didn't go pure light and got leech from the tree together with a lot more crit. With charges up I'm at 75k dps and around 85% crit. My SS dmg was also around 66k-70k. I'm at 4k hp, but my defenses could be better. Still, I survive reflect packs just fine. Last edited by Kendo_PoE#6950 on Dec 21, 2014, 5:14:09 PM

" Would love to see your tree. I'm supposing you didn't use lightning penetration and didn't go up to the witch area and instead specced a lot of 2 hander notes. 2.0 ain't no melee patch. Last edited by exodus820#0019 on Dec 21, 2014, 5:35:48 PM

Just curious, what's damage look like without an Abyssus? I'm level 76 but missing it because I'm poor.

" Without Abyssus you lose about 40% of your damage. It's an item that carries you dps-wise even you have a bad weapon. 2.0 ain't no melee patch.

hey i got some questions.. im doing this build im only lvl 67..
i only got like 2,2k hp and max hp on everything except jewels. its still shitty gear.. is it only me that got a problem with relying on leech from curses ?.. if i meet a boss with no mobs around i am fucked ?.. dunno if im wrong or what.. but its kinda pissing me off. that said, man HoA with ele prof is amazing.. :D Last edited by MacWrath#7374 on Dec 28, 2014, 11:08:56 AM

" I had very low life around 60 but after I bought a belly chest my life pool works fine for me. About mana leech, I run a separate self-cast warlords mark in case HoT cant sustain itself. In fact when I was leveling, I used curse on hit leap slam and a second self-cast curse, this setup also plays pretty well and have no reliance on HoT. The lack of leech is certainly a drawback of pure ele builds, if you are confident enough that you can identify every ele reflect pack before you engage, you can switch off purity of lightning and run clarity. 2.0 ain't no melee patch.

Hi,hope you have a great new year for starters :).
I found this staff on torment Wanted to ask if this is any good for a build like yours. |

I specc'd into this build this week to try and revive my templar. It is very fun, but very challenging to play this guy now. Thanks for figuring out how all of this stuff works. Strangely, I find myself using leap slam more often than static strike. Static strike feels pretty clunky, but definitely works great if you can get a large enough pack to surround you.
