You need around 4k dps and static blows to kill her without too much trouble in my experience.

If you're below 3k dps It's probably not worth the trouble.

it is a matter of playstyle

i have 2.5k dps (with 7 power charges), the 5% shock node in shadow area, killing her with no problem (i don't even cast ice spear for charges)

be focused on ice shot and that's it

Unless you're doing something different other than hide behind pillars when she turns cold..I think everyone who fights her with sparks has a similiar "play style" :).

To Shaokim, you can switch to the double curse ring when you fight her and also use frost wall right before the fight starts to get a little more dps from sparks (make your own wall to bounce sparks). Also, have 70+ light res (preferably maxed).

Should work against her, at least my dps increases tons for these few seconds. Honestly, it only takes a bit to kill her because she randomly teleports away.

Her drops have been pretty shitty for me, though. Best drop was Goldrim, says it all.

Edit: I'm coming for you, Cloud. Close to 30ex, I want that shield! Will keep my Shavs, though. :p (Too bad nobody is selling a mirrored shield, especially the old ones would still make a profit at like 55ex and I'd save a ton as well.)

Gear:

was pretty sure the flask won't work on this build at all. It should only have the effect while it's regening life and since life is at max (else you're likely dead since it's low life) it never regens.

But if you double check by running it and looking at the IIR/IIQ numbers in game then that'd be nice.

It works on both life and mana, i just spam curse when i use it so i am never on full mana


Got those two bad boys so now i am at 4,9k ES and 81 all res

Wow.. really nice ammy!

SHield is too, obviously.

True story. :(

True story. :(

I've been trying to find a way to keep the unique buff up nearly 100% of the time (even using arctic armor for a while) and so far I think the best solution I've found has been to simply use a lower level clarity (8) in combination with faster casting on conductivity. In doing so I've been able to maintain the buff for it's full duration almost every time. However, I probably play very wasteful (mana wise) anyway due to how often I'm constantly dropping totems. Combine that with now having an extremely quick and costly mana dump (curse), especially after potting, and the flask becomes pretty easy to sustain.

If anyone else has come up with their own solutions I'd love to read about them. Since the flask has been released I've been scouring the forums trying to find the "ultimate trick". So far I've managed to get by with my solution above, but I'm sure there is an easier way.

My current gear at level 63.. DPS on spork totem = 280 WITH low life.. Been following the guide here, and my DPS simply wont go up.. My Spark is level 15 currently.. What am I doing wrong?

There's a few things
* Your fork has not hit the break-even point yet, reducing your dps
* Your spark gem will increase your dps massively till level 20
* You probably lack casting speed, heartbreaker has none
* I can't see RF (righteous fire) anywhere, it's a massive dps boost. Mine goes from 916 (town) to 1271 (before RF) to 2480 (with RF)
* You lack auras, typically people run haste, purity, vitality, clarity, discipline -> haste boosts your dps a bit

Then again don't care too much about tooltip dps, it doesn't include shocks.

For reference, my gear:

For the biggest improvement, get a 5L Soul Mantle.

Righteous fire need some things to work
- You need to get more than 1hp (Ci user can't get him)
- You need to be in low life mode (<=35%) for Apply the Spell power bonus
- Max Resist fire possible
- High ES Stuff

The second point in untrue, Righteous Fire by itself has no benefit from low life

also max fire resist isn't needed, just use a Spingleaf
