You are getting hit by rare mana leech mobs. This doesn't happen often unless you're chaining the same types of maps over and over. And this is still easily fixed by not getting hit. I think what you can do for now is just use a diamond flask. It'll make sure you crit and get freezes off. Won't get hit quite as much. I didn't realize I specced into mind over matter until you pointed that out hahahaha, I'm good now thanks!	Posted by egiparengkuan#1563 on Aug 14, 2016, 7:42:31 AM Quote this Post

Also, which gems should i try to get to 20%asap and which ones should i not worry about? Thx Yea they're lucky/rare corruptions from vaal orbs. I wouldn't recommend trying to get them unless you have a lot of spare currency to buy new items in case they brick. As for quality, start with your main gem and then your damage support gems.

So, i finally found a wand seller with cast speed, but then the wand costs me 1.5ex and only gives me 5k dps boost, this is without heralds and flame golem though, boosts me from 60k to 65k. Do you think it's worth it? (I only have 7ex). What should I be prioritizing in my wand? Is it the cast speed? Cause i've just realized cast speed can boost your dps more than crit chance does.

Wands can be annoying to sell back so I suggest making significant upgrades rather than small upgrades. Keep saving up for now.

Whats your thoughts on using Pledge of hands and pyre ring instead of cold to fire + 2 wands?	Posted by Kwanzaa246#4746 on Aug 14, 2016, 10:14:21 PM Quote this Post

Very good wands are better tho. Do not use pyre ring. Cold to fire is a damage gem and it doesn't convert all of the damage to cold (on purpose). You need freezes.

Obviously you have to have your 4 link herald of ice as well.

I managed to kill atziri with 2 deaths on this build. Failed my first attempt and succeed on second and third attempt. I always die against the second stage boss, and have no solution in mind. The guys who runs fast and hits like a truck kills me, plus the stupid bleed. Anyways, thanks for the build, enjoying it.	Posted by egiparengkuan#1563 on Aug 15, 2016, 10:04:27 AM Quote this Post
