Well I am trying to decide what is going to be best for me to get to 65+ and what will benefit me the most. Also I know before he tweaked his build he did have Iron reflexes before, so for someone stating they wont have a koams would it be better off getting that.

Is it viable to drop a Granite of Iron Skin for a Ruby of Iron Skin (or Reflexes)? Because I don't want to lose my Ample Quicksilver of Adrenaline, as it is very useful/fun. And I'm also considering dropping my Catalysed Life of Dousing for an Amethyst of Dousing, to help mitigate my abyssmal -60% Chaos... >_<

So far I've found Vulnerability to be the biggest problem, haven't gotten shock stacked yet, but I assume that'll be a similar nuisance. Though usually popping a Ruby Flask will keep you alive during it's duration, but you still gotta watch out for it. :P

I had such a horrific time leveling to get this build (and also in SC), whilst I don't blame you for what you've provided in your guide it certainly would be help to people wanting to try this build out. With this in mind I think it would be a good idea to provide more depth into your leveling section of the guide, it's all pretty self explanatory at the higher levels, but in the lower sections it's really not a fun build to get to.

Using EK, I was well below on dex to be able to keep that leveled up and until recently that has sat at rock bottom value as the path you take to level will not take you through any dex nodes. I eventually fell into an ice nova build in which I took elemental equilibrium and effectively debuffed for the other members of the group in docks etc.

Another thing that is missing from the guide which would have helped me greatly is what you should expect from the build, I.E. why isn't the build possible from the start? what is needed to make the build sucessful, what the build plays like at higher levels, how you can expect the build to perform at top levels, how you micromanage your pots in order to remain effective.

As it currently stands I apply RF and I lose health, I've picked up all the regen bar the nodes associated with charges. If I want to heal I can do so with a long duration health pot and it means I heal slowly. If I want a large burst of health I need to use a ruby pot as it removes the damage caused by RF and then I get all my regen with none of the damage caused by RF for 4.x seconds.

Either I'm not getting how the build works but I had the distinct impression that RF would not kill me very slowly over time, but that I would be able to hit a point (outside of charge regen) that I would regen more than I would lose and then the fun began at that point.

Far be it from my place to explain to people how this build works fundamentally (I do not possess the experience you do), however, I think it would be helpful if you were able to explain your build in depth using a video or update the overall thread to address these points above as it was information I had gather myself as I gained experience on the mechanical details of the build.

Excuse the above Amp if it sounds ungrateful or bitchy in nature, above all else I really appreciate the information provided and find the build is now (Divinarius+RotP+all regen nodes) fantastic. It's an absolute pleasure to play and I only expect more fun to come from mapping with this character.

A question if I may. Why would anyone consider taking Saffrell's over RotP as they are roughly the same price and RotP has more max fire resist? I was to understand that even lacking the extra 3% max resist would make it increasingly difficult to maintain RF without the need for excessive potting and also negating further passive regen when a pot is used.

Another question is why have you specced out of Elemental Equilibrium in your updated spec? Is it for group play?

Thanks Amp

AP.

Chill isn't an issue due to the fact that the duration is based off of how much HP you have, with high HP the duration is very short. Same goes for shocks, freezes and stuns as well.
