2.6 CI Ignite Flameblast by Waldgaist - very good starting Build and decent Shaper farmer

Finally tried shaper myself (for the first time ever actually). Got him with two portals, then two portals again the next try and third try was deathless! Although I have a lot better gear than you, so I literally can facetank the shaper slams....

Finally also got my +1 curse chayula (13ex blergh) so im rocking now warlords/flamma/eleweakness, the warlords leech makes everything trivial basically, also the endurance charges help a lot with IC too.

I've also been experiementing with withfire brew's 70% increased DoT dmg, what do you think about that one? It feels like it boosts boss damage quite a bit.

Other thing I want to try is the shaper flask for map clearing, but will probably wait for it to drop for myself. :)

Ok, my current question is: how do you sustain the three curse build? You link 2 of them into orb and 1 on blasphemy?

Also what is the point of having ele overload if we basically cant crit reliably without a inc crit gem in orb? (refering to dual curse)

Meanwhile I got a Doryani's and things turn out very well :)

Just one quick and dirty question: I don't have the wealth to buy all the gemcutter's. So which gems should I focus on?

Thanks in advance for a small hint,
and stay save :)

I do indeed run two on orb and one blasphemy. For the 2nd question, in maps you have 100% uptime on elemental overload anyways even without crit, because it has fast attack speed and many mobs to target. In bosses however I do seem to miss some overloads every now and then. Overall I think its not worth to have increased crit linked to it, but that's only my opinion, idk about OP tho.

I'd like to know about gem quality priority as well. Thanks in advance.

This is not a three curse build :)
Ele overload will proc enough to make it worth investing 1node for it.

I do know this isnt tricurse, but I was asking sneakur just out of curiosity.

You do however also run 2 curses in orb of storms, so the question was still standing, anyway, thanks for the answer.

You can sell a lvl 20 support gem and 1 gemscutter to the vendor and you will get a lvl1 gem with q20. Just do this recipe and level all your gems up to lvl 20 again ;)

Hey man,

I've been having a blast with build, swapped over from hybrid to pure CI.
But at the moment I'm running into the issue I don't have enough mana to sustain FB.

I just went over your stats and you have double my mana regen rate and for the live of me I can't figure out where you got it from.
I've got the exact same tree as the dual curse setup, running 2x -8 mana rings and only have 73,5 mana / second.

Total mana pool at the moment is 1144 and I have 145 mana unreserved.

Would love some pointers to look at!

Kind regards and cheers for the awesome build!

-small edit-
Do you maybe get it from your jewels? If so could you tell me what stats you go for on them?

--edit because I'm dumb--
Just found out I swapped out some wrong gems during the action and was running inc aoe and cont destr. at the same time. Pushing the mana cost from 11 per cast to 18.
Still wondering about mana regen though.

Also I was wondering wouldn't Kiara's determination be a nice add to the flask setup and possibly open a spot up?

What about using Valyrium Moonstone Ring and freeing up Amulet slot for more effective Amulet for DPS or Defenses,,,making up -40 cold resist might be a pita though ?

Im respeccing a dusty wich from perandus that only got to 74 and there are a few new items in Atlas that i have never tried, been holding that scepter a couple leagues waiting for a good build for it.
