Hey man, would a +3 fire 6L staff like this suffice as replacement for POH? Ofc, one gem is empower lv3.

Spoiler
i assume it would be good for damage, but the increased mana from pledge gives too much extra mana to pass up
ya.. pledge is mostly for the 100% mana rather than damage. u would have more damage with 2 rare wands/scepter than a staff.

So what level should Arctic Breath, Warlords Mark, and Increased AoE be in order to be effective
You think it'd be worth running Arctic Armour? Not sure if math correct, but 25% reserved * .3 means you'd be losing 7.5% effective life, while getting ~13% less phys+fire dmg.

edit: Do you value the 0.2% life leech from Doryani's Invitation that much? A good ~100+ hp from a rare belt seems more important than some leech, especially since u get 2% from warlord's mark.

It's worth to run arctic armor, specially against reflect maps, but this build does not have any dex. you will have to find ~80 dex from gears to run arctic armor.

A rare belt could be better than doryani's, but then again this build already have alot hp. 0.2% leech is somewhat useful again curse immune map/mobs. 30% fire dmg is also nice to have.

warlords mark'e leech does not scale with gem level, so a low level one is fine. Just use a low level cwdt setup so it triggers alot

Noted. Should be doable. ~40 dex on amu and ~40 dex from ring should do the trick. Hard part is finding a good unset ring to put in arctic armor.


I'd love to get a doryani's, but there's none for sale in tempest atm haha
