Raider's overrated... you don't need to waste your ascendency points on it if you're just after frenzy charges.

Instead of raider or blood dance, just use a Frenzy Gem + GMP... link it with your Curse on Hit and you're all set!

I went Beserker + Elementist and it rocks... I maintain full frenzy charges and constant curse with this setup:

Means you get the benefit of another ascendency class and benefit of boots other than blood dance (i.e. more life and resistance)

helo i use frenzy with gmp also but rain of arrow let you to runn ee with 100% since hit whole pack .Anyway from raider you have onsl. ofc 10 % to gain frenzy its nothink i make it manualy its 1 hit in pack , elementalist seems solid but i think its some more nice sub like slayer nobady say aboute slayer i am wonder why ?? its so good option 30 % inc dmg against rare and uniq since this build have only weeknes with boss kiling its should be realy nice bost

I'm just wondering how are you going to keep frenzy charges up if not with blood dance?

Also, If you deal fire dmg and ignite enemies, they will become resistant to fire because of the elemental equilibrium. Not sure if it's worth to have that node at all then. Otherwise I tried with elemental focus, dmg is great and EA will not ignite which is good for EE but it lacks the dmg output from ignite to single target.

You are wrong with EE man its work like that hit(flat cold,light in items)arrow triger ee for example cold so enemy get cold resistance + any other - then arrow explode and deal fire dmg with ee bonus ignite also and aboute frenzy 10 % its not a loot true but i dont use blood dance in first pack i use frenzy with gmp 1 hit and i have full then if you run from pack to pack and kiling it in 1 sec 10 % from whole pack iots enought to keep it up ,anyway still need manual for hard boss

Hey foojin, what's the main difference between your passive skill tree and peyters? I can't decide which one to choose, would appreciate any help. Thanks

what level should the cwdt set up be im guessing its level 1

Yo Guys

I have a question for the leveling part of this specc. I just turned lvl 38 and equipped my quil bow, made it 4 linked. However, I experience a lot of mana issues, how do i solve that? Do I rush for blood magic or how does it work?

Ty in advance

@slickepinnen Im leveling now with this spec aswell, I thought what you are thinking right now at 38 a 100 mana cost EA is not easy to maintain and its single target is weak at 38. what I did was picked up some

hp nods
fire damage nods
2 hp flasks
2 mana flasks 1 flask is instant recovery

if you pick up blood magic that early you will just fall over every time you get hit as all your hp is used to spam that EA

here is my tree right now at 55

So i got a question regarding Empower, so i almost got one to level 2 and i am starting to wonder if i should vaal it and hope for +1, but would a lv3 empower be even worth it? (also only have a 5L quill atm)

Started playing 5 days ago, and been power trough shit like it's nothing. Awesome! However, now at 90, I feel too squishy. I feel like I have to play really slow to be somewhat sure I don't die and loose XP.

I have not played the game in quite some time, like I said started again 5 days ago, so any help would be appreciated. 6.5k HP res-capped

Gear:


Edit: I switch out Increased area effect for chance to ignite on the go.

Too bad we can't see your characters / tree. I think you don't have much HP nodes in the tree. Another thing could be no %life on jewelry.

I have nearly the same gear and 7.5k HP.

Also I would get immortal call instead of phasing or so.

Yep you need more life.

This builds defence primarily comes from life...and secondly armour.

I'm level 85 and at 8k life and 4.8k armour (15k with flasks) i feel fine. You should be at least 8k life at level 90.

I'd swap out blood dance for better boots and just use frenzy gem to get charges.

I also don't see any gem in your essence worm ring so it's a wasted spot at the moment. Either swap it out for a +life ring or use a defensive aura in it.

For curses, you probably don't need flammability. I know most people use it but I honestly believe it's a waste... our DPS is already so large I don't notice any difference with it. You have a 6L and you're at level 90 so your DPS is most likely insane (compared to my 5L and level 85 and I know my DPS is already insane). I'd swap flammability out for something more defensive such as warlord's mark / enfeeble. Warlords mark will give you greater life leech.

Edit: also, you could get a belt with 300+ armour on it which will help.
