Eckalina | SC | FARMBUILD [Amazing dps and IQ/IR] | Dual Spark | Low Life Mode - RF |

Guys when you have low dps keep in mind that the spark (and fork) gem adds a ton of dps. I'd say the last ~3 levels each add 100dps. Save currency and farm smartly. There are more areas to farm than Docks and Lunaris, City of Sarn is a great place if you avoid the boss, Catacombs (but be careful, chaos damage) does not have tittie bitches, and so on.

Just don't expect great dps before your mid 70s, which is also when you should have a wand 70%+ spell damage, 18%+ cast speed.

Thats pretty much why I'm shocked to be doing so poorly now that I'm actually trying to put some time into the game post .11 respec.


There was a nerf to spark's crit chance, IF was nerfed and elemental adaptation. Maybe that made a big difference before, can't tell as I never really played sporker before the nerf.

well you have springleaf, that helps a lot, get your fire res up to like 70-80% then see if you can sustain RF, that will be a HUGE dps boost.

that is what i did, i use some shitty rings so i can sustain RF.

spam trade for rings with high fire res, they usually don't cost too much (and ofc. if you can get some with other useful stats that will help)


My fire resists are near maxed with a shield and i own dual redbeaks + springleaf.

I never used RF before - it was sporks and minion backup.

I'm reading more into the RF piece of the puzzle and all my major gems are level 16 atm, so I'm not far off.

I'm saving for that wand and I suppose we will see what happens after it comes into play.

then use redbeak with springleaf and RF, then see what your dps is

not atm. without my es shield, es drops from 2.5k to 600.

gotta plug some ger first.

So is leveling this build supposed to be a 'hop in docks parties, throw a totem and be anemic' affair? I get I'm not supposed to be all-powerful the second I can spit a totem out, but this seems awfully awkward for solo leveling.

E: I mean early game by the way, like 31 until 60 I guess.

for easy and fast leveling solo, go standard freezing pulse spec, when you can add a single totem to it. then when you get around 55-60 and you have the gear for it, respec out of freezing pulse and into low life sporker

Hey all, just wanted to stop by and share my progress with everyone. Started playing this build mid-June with nothing. Everything I'm wearing except for the chest, helm and dagger were self found. Additionally, I'm a casual player and have not put in no more than 3 hours straight at any given time. So to all those that feel this build is to hard to achieve... it's really not that bad.

Currently I'm at 1.1K dps with RF, 2900 ES, 300 usable mana. I run 4 auras - Purity, Vitality, Discipline and Clarity. My resists are 78, 65, 52.

For more IIR and less IQ I swap these pieces out.



Good luck to everyone!

City of Sarn has too low level to drop nicely, and avoiding the boss defeats the purpose...
Catacombs are a waste for spark efficiency (stairs and platforms suck), so not very efficient time-wise.

Again, everything relies 100% on Shav's to farm anything else than Docks efficiently in low-life state (= without risking your life due to chaos damage).
A pity because Shav's price is higher than ever, being such a game changer.

My lv77 witch is still condemned to Docks, although her dps is excellent. 6 toons above lv60, never seen an exalted orb drop, never seen a unique above lv47 drop. ^^

Good point is: that makes you search for builds which are not relying so heavily on ONE unique piece of equipment. And there are not many I can tell you. ;)

you could also just go CI until you have shav, even when my spork was at 400 dps i could still do 66-68 maps.
