[3.0] THEORY Ele Blade Flurry. 6-13 mil VS Shaper, 6667 life
" I tried it as a raider for the immune ascendancy choices. It was much worse. Haven't tried pathfinder though it's definitely possible. My flasks double my dps, so having those up more often would be amazing. The thing is that people have used blade vortex to take full advantage of the flask charge on crit mechanic. Reave hits nowhere near as often and can miss so when I use I need to get a fair amount of hits in for them to regenerate. Reducing this to 10% chance to gain a charge would mean that it would take 10x longer to fill when fighting bosses. I don't see this being a good enough incentive for dropping the movement speed, ES, Mana, Attack speed, DPS, free frenzy charges and evasion. I'm struggling to come up with new goals to keep me playing this game.

Okay I've reached 92 and decided to make this character my main after seeing how well it performed once I had everything setup properly. It took a lot of cash so I sold everything I had on my other characters except for my support and I gotta say it felt amazing wrecking T15 Abyss boss in seconds.
Dps with Concentrated + Flasks + Charges  I had to take both +30 strength nodes because I was missing 2 strength lol (level 20 gems). I also had to take the 4% reserve passive to fit all 3 aura/curses. My ES is a little low but I'm working on getting a better chest, shield and rings. Spent everything on that Loath Bane which was totally worth gutting my other characters for it. Really looking forward to taking this character to further heights once I get the upgrades I need. I do have 1 Question though, In my screenshot you can see I'm using a Dying Sun, now I chose it for the AoE since I didn't require the Doedre's Elixir due to Skyforth's but even then its not really required. I don't die a lot to Bleed but sometimes it gets me. I was thinking should I swap out the Dying Sun for a Surgeon's Sulphur Flask of Staunching to negate the bleed ? Thanks! |

How does one even get RRRGGB on a chest, i have already spent like 20 ex, maybe more, on this and cant get the colours ;/ its more than x2 value of my chest ;p and there are only 2 chests with okish ES like this on poetrade, both of them without resists :< would you say that faster attacks is must have for end game? or can i do t15-16 + shaper with something like increased critical damage.

" Hey dude Welcome to that melee feeling haha. Crushing stuff face-first feels awesome. You will need both a freeze flask and a bleeding flask. I have the bleeding flask slotted in for the majority of mapping, unless I'm facing mobs that I know freeze and I don't have to worry about bleed. Like shaper for example. The mobs before him and maybe a boss or two in his map can bleed, though he onlly does freeze, so it's a no brainer. I get an enormous amount of leech and damage from my jewels. I'm at 5% thanks to ring, amy, warlord's and jewels. we also need to get your accuracy up man! you will get much "more" damage if we can pump that up to even just 90% You've got a lot to look forward to!

" Hey man. 20 ex is an insanely high amount holy crap! I've managed to get RRRRGB, RRGGGB, GGGGGB and RRRGGB with as little as 2k chromatic orbs spent to achieve each. To get the exact combination, I think I spent around 3000 chromatics first time around, then 2000 the second time. That's 10 ex worth to get it twice. When I get 5 greens, that one sold very quickly though so I definitely appreciate the value of 5-off colour chests. If you have a weapons with 1.9 attack speed, then you may not require faster attacks. You could roll with an increased crit chance, or even an increased crit multi to see which one works better. Phys to lightning does much more than either, but effects our leech. Good luck! I'm struggling to come up with new goals to keep me playing this game.

noticed you use herald of ahs instead of WM, how do you leech mana in that case? 1 single jewel ?
and didnt see anything about herald of ash in your guide.... |
|
" Hey mate I use herald of ash and a mana leech jewel when im playing Hexproof maps. I swap out blasphemy>warlord's and the extra enlighten and for HoA and 2 other damage gems that I link to the trigger gems. This is explained in the guide but i definitely understand it's easy to miss things when there's so much info! =) I'm struggling to come up with new goals to keep me playing this game.

why not go HoA + 1 mana leech jewel full time?
you get more dps that way. The life leech from from WM is not necessary if got it on amulet + other jewels. Shaper can be done with 1% leech no need for that 3%+.... |

" Until around 2 months ago I used a 0.2% mana leech jewel - this provided at least 20x more mana leech and a +2 on hit - with herald of ash. I use warlords primarily for the endurance charges while mapping. This means I cannot be 1 hit and losing 250k peak dps in favour of having an extra 2% leech is a sacrifice i have chosen after years of testing. Herald of ash provides some extra dps, though it's not actually that much. 4 seconds of immortal call is invaluable when compared to 1 second. Look at the add phase in a 160% quantity chimera map for example. The adds do more damage than chimera so having that extra survivability has regularly been the difference between a deathless run, and a multiple death run.
