[2.6/3.1] Shaper down on budget 5-link - The Debuffing Pizza (Tri-Curse CI Elementalist Flameblast)
" When you get familiar with the build you don't need to pay attention to Pendulum and Conflux, unless you are trying to pull off the ultimate move. Just pretend the Pendulum and Conflux don't exist and do your thing. You don't need to "wait" for anything. For mobs just cast a 2-3 stack FB. Only use 10-stack for bosses or tough rares such as multi-essence mobs. Last edited by loonger#5545 on Apr 11, 2017, 10:37:00 PM

He there Guys,i have followed the build as close as possible and I have hit the limit of 9.7K es with this equipment. I have looked for better gear keeping the same amount of resistance,but it was either too expensive or would screw me on ele. Weakness.
Any suggestions? (PS: about the other ring,i can't really deal with being frozen or slowed,my reflexes aren't really good,so when I noticed I am frozen I am already dead. Just wanted to put his out there just so if anyone was wondering) |

Just put Energy from within jewel on Medling sector slot.
Fragments ring is shit, I was dead being frozen only once when triggered ice tempest on uber-izaro with darkshrine, in most situations you still have whooping ES buffer to react with flasks. |

" Have you tried Lightning Warp? Linked to Faster Casting and Less Duration it's very fast way to travel and goes through ledges as well. |
|
Level 65. Soon switching to CI and so much fun so far.
BUT ... I die a lot in breaches, overwhelmed, no time to make pizzas before being slaughtered. Isthere a particular way to treat breaches, especially the crowded ones ?? Thank you. |

" Use Decoy totem. Farm on Dry Lake or low tier maps to get to lvl70ish and switch to CI asap. Do not cast 10-stack FB for trashes. |
|
" True, for mobs 2-4 stack pizza is enough to kill pretty much anything with the burn. For most bosses in the t10-t12 range, I don't even swap to CE anymore, I just make sure I hit during the igniting conflux (shock doesn't matter, I do enough damage), except for vault boss b/c you get more loot the faster he dies so I make sure to do it correctly. For hard bosses (t15/guardians/shaper) you definitely want to be timing everything at least to ensure that you ignite (ignore pendulum though, it's too hard to line up) because you can lose so much time if you don't ignite the boss and have to fire off another pizza. |

Hey guys what is this CI and CE tha you all mention?New in the game.Enjoying this build very much though

" I'm level 90, also followed this build very closely, and i'm at 11K ES. I only spent what i found, and some of my items are very very bad. You should be able to get 10k+ ES very easily. i have 4 jewels that give +7% ES, my boots and gloves are quite bad but have high ES values. a lvl 20 discipline also helps of course :-) |

" I used Stibnite Flask, which creates smoke cloud on use (blinds monsters in it, chance to hit lowered by 50%). Decoy Totem helps too. Once your golems are elemental immune, they are indestructible in elemental breaches. Cast speed also helps a ton. I just cast Decoy, open breach, start channelling Flameblast, pop Stibnite Flask. I keep channelling until monsters get close and then pop the Flameblast. After that you have to use FB more strategically, using smaller stacks whenever needed. Breaches are very hard if your damage just isn't there. If you can't kill the monsters, they will overwhelm you. So if you can't handle them with this strategy, just farm more equipment and levels. Eventually you will be able to handle any breach in any map. Also breach domains. |
