2.6 CI Ignite Flameblast by Waldgaist - very good starting Build and decent Shaper farmer
" You deal with him like every other range character does. Dodge his attacks and while he is in his attack animation hit him. Daresso is no big deal for thiis build because we 1shot every phase and our ES pool is high enough to sustaiin 2-3 hits of his melee waves. | |

I have an idea regarding aura setup - Anger Discipline and Mid level clarity. I calculated with enlighten 3 + 8 reserve nodes will make it possible or 69-110 fire damage to spells is not that great from anger?
Btw managed to run 6l only on 1 -8 mana ring and got myself opal ring with 25 ele + 34 fire damage. So my question is which one would be better New aura setup with 2x -8 mana cost ring or the old aura setup with a new ring and -8 mana cost ring?

" Kinda annoying to run low regen maps without lvl20 clarity. Also why do you want to stack more damage? I don't get why people always wanna do more damage^^ If you already oneshot every boss except shaper, guards and atziri why should you even care about more damage? You would need to invest so much for just 69-110 flat fire damage. In my opinion this is not worth it. | |
" My point is also that i have like 40 dex and i can't run high level arctic armor without some investment in stats on gear which i dont wanna to. So i have like free spot for some low mana reserv aura or herald but dunno which one to chose... low level arctic armor, herald of thunder, purities? ffs i dunno :D well another idea is to equip doedres daming and run elemental weakness on blasphemy?

" Never use Herald of Thunder! It will mess with your EE procs :D I would use a lower lvl arctic armour then. It is still around 10% damage reduction which is huge. If you want to use a doedre ring you need to invest into more mmna regen which is not worth the investment in my mind. It is easier to just skill Whispers of Doom hence we are really close to it. I personaly am using Clarity, Discipline and Blasphemy with Flammability. It is really convenient for me. I don't really need AA because of my 13k ES and my damage is already freakin good which is why i don't want more damage so im still fine versus reflect mobs in a minus max map. This way i don't need to cast Orb of Storms for every pack because my flammability by itself is enough of a boost to oneshot every pack even with the +50% fire res while burning cause of EE. So i do need to cast Orb of Storms only while fighting a boss. | |

How hard was Guardian fights? I suspect that Phoenix and Minotaur would be most difficult from all 4 of them?

" Not the OP but probably phoenix is extremely annoying since she is ignite immune which negates half the damage of this build. Other than that the build is nice. Also, OP what do you think about going totems? I am doing Raiz's Pizza sticks (a.k.a. flameblast totems elementalist) and it's a nice build defensively (dual curse enfeeble and TC on blasphemy and flamability on CoH) but the ignites are not as strong, unfortunately, but defense is insane and not so many mana issues (which I hated when I was playing self cast FB). Edit: Also am interested if someone can tell me how much cast speed is efficient enough to have? Atm I'm sitting at 0.7 seconds to 10 stacks on totems and silver flask or low level vaal haste up. Think that's good enough, cuz I think my ele damage is sort of weak atm :x Last edited by lukassid on Oct 13, 2016, 10:55:20 PM

" I personaly just don't like totem builds^^ For me it is way more fun to cast stuff myself which is why i am not playing the totem version. I also think this build will do more damage than the totem version. Phoenix is a bit of anoying but we can ignite her via prolif (Beacon of Ruin). I was using two Writhing Jar Flasks for this encounter. She takes around 2-3 Minutes to kill tho^^ So yeah, kinda anoying. The other guardians are really easy with this build and even the Shaper is fairly easy with it :) Last edited by waldgaist on Oct 13, 2016, 11:06:42 PM

That is true, while your ignite is stronger (since you don't have a less multiplier in your 6link and dont have to go out of your way to get dual totems) also you stack ignite damage while my tree is lacking in that regard.
Sigh, probably will have to work out the stuff myself from this point. Thanks for the reply ;) | |

Well should start to learn how to dodge stuff then. Now lvl 75 seems everything is quite easy now at t8-t10 maps and its going fast, not so fast as BV but dmg for bosses overkill just drop orb of storm kite a bit and gg :D
Also do you have some advice how to survive porcupines? On t10 maps with a big stack of mobs they are hitting quite hard :D Last edited by PetuSchokk on Oct 14, 2016, 5:42:00 AM
