Hope it works with 2 EA arrows in 2 4L items aswell (single and aoe).

Works, i long played it with 4 L.

Nice to hear. I'm using a Spell Totem with arc to proc EE and get some shocks, since i don't have gmp or chain yet.
I will try both ways later on and see what i prefer.

is it possible to play this spec without Elemental Equillibrium?

im doing this, i cant be fucked mucking around trying to hit them with lightning or whatever beforehand, would only blow my mind.
lvl 40 so far, doing fine

The good thing at explosiv arrow is, that its very comfortable to use with Elemetal equilibrium.

But if you do not whant to deal 100% more dmg for one single point...youre choice, this character still will make more dmg than any common builds.

Explosion deals fire damage. Burning deals fire damage. This retriggers EE bro, resets it to +25% fire res, so you have 1 second of max burning damage and than the other ~7.6 seconds are with the +25% so your dps numbers are a bit off.

You are so totaly wrong:
Burning dmg deals Burning dmg.
Burning dmg isnt firedmg.
Burning dmg gets affected by fire resistenz.
Burning dmg is not direct affected by increased/more fire/elemetal dmg.
Burning dmg isnt elemtal dmg.
Burning dmg has no benefits from firepenetration.
Burning dmg not triggers Elemetal Equilibrium.

Mhh interesting build, i understand why the fire/burn part works so well. He "found" a way to ignore "less weapon damage" with EA and Quill Rain, which is pretty unique to EA mechanic.

What i don't understand is how can he actually get shocks workings in maps? Even with EE the lightning dmg is affected by quill rain and halved, so from added gem + the 1 ring, its like 50 base dmg + passives? Given the 300ms minimum mechanic, i don't understand how this can be enough to even get 1 shock stack going?

U can get lucky and crit ofc, which should be sufficient to apply a shock, but than again quill rains crit chance is so low, that even with 100% attk speed its not a very consistent chance?


So what i'm missing or "undervaluing", since the shore map video clearly shows consistent shocks for at least 2-4 seconds, so the lightning dmg must be pretty high?

thx Andy

The full lighningdmg get added to the explosion. Thats the part you miss.

Um, so it will be added twice? Once for the hit itself like "add xy" from items and than again to the fire explosion? So the first "hit" gets reduced by quill rain, but the second won't?
How does this interact with EE?

The other version would be its not added to the "hit" itself like items, but rather only to the explosion?

So basically anything "added" to the explosion part, wont be reduced by quill rains "less"?

Does this mean that wrath is also only added to the explosion, but not the "hit" itself and also therefor does not suffer the "less" penalty?


Thx Andy

So mutch complicatet questions...

Mechanics:

Wrath: Adds x-xxx ligningdmg to youre ATTACK
Added lighningdmg: Adds x-xxx ligtningdmg (on HIT) (otherwise it wont work for spells)

Explosiv arrow: Attack->accuracy roll->HIT(ATTACK dmg)->fuse->explosionHIT

Quillrain: 50% LESS WEAPON(ATTACK) dmg.

Wrath gets added at each big ATTACK point, Added lighningdmg get added at each big HIT point, quillrain reduce the dmg at each ATTACK point.

Elemtal equilibrium:

Explosiv Arrow + Splitshoot:
Attack -> accuracy roll -> hit(attackdmg) -> EE -50fr +25cr +25lr -> fuse ->splitshoot -> accuracy roll -> hit(attackdmg) -> EE -50fr +25cr +25lr -> explosionhit -> EE +25fr +25lr -50cr


I hope that exxplains all.

Yep, works as i suspected, which means that all lightning damage gets at least reduced by 25% from EE and 50% + 25% on the attack parts.
I'm still surprised that even with +25% lightning resist u are able to shock using only the added gem on the explosion part?

I only raise the ligningresistent, cause my ligningdmg ring is to awesome to not wear it. I would happy if it not had ligningdmg. Also i use elemental weakness lvl 20...-50%lr, so at all, iam at -25lr.
