Shouldn't ele reflect be negated by level 5 awakened ele damage gem?

At what point does this build excel at T17s and whatnot. What should I focus on upgrading next. I know Nimis would be helpful, but super expensive. Also trying to get a Dying Sun.

Can someone explain this math for me? 19 = 17? dafuq?

"Formula for damage calculation that you will use to check your char
(ball base number x 0.6) + (ball base number + Sniper's mark)

So in case of the finished build it will go like this
(9x0.6) + (9+3) = 19.4 = 17 balls"

I don't find that this build "excels" at t17s. They are manageable, but my experience has not been that they are a cake walk and I have my build, after testing many variants, compiled almost exactly to the specs of this guide.

It's an incredibly fun build and it is powerful, but it isn't going to run over everything and you have to be aware of the map modifiers, specifically I have run into trouble against; Chance to Reflect Elemental (obv), poison, high crit strike enemies, and it's generally quite vulnerable any time you are not smashing the faces of enemies. Looting is probably the most dangerous thing you can do on this build, I mostly wait until I full clear the map to even attempt to pick up loot.

ahahahhaa sorry my bad

Guide is extensive so few mistakes slipped.
This is the right calculation

Formula for damage calculation that you will use to check your char
(ball base number x 0.6) + (ball base number + Sniper's mark with 16% increased mark effect from Tattoos)

So in case of the finished build it will go like this
(9x0.6) + (9+2) = 16.4 = 16 balls

The gem only negates reflect from molten strike, whirling blades is not negated and also if you are very low mana a default attack will kill you.

Hey, quick note -

Your crafting steps (ofc I only noticed AFTER I finished my craft) are not what your chest in the items section shows. IDK if you meant to have a different chest or if you changed something about your chest and forgot to update the guide. Yours has evasion instead of % incr mana

I'm happy with what I have, but now I'm not sure if I messed up what was intended here.

Note: I am a casual and not great at crafting, which is why I followed your guide as written. I keep trying to understand craftofexile, but still fail at it.

After lots of playing and min/maxing this build of yours I have finally found it a proper setup strictly for juiced cemetery/sanctuary t17 farming. It is still perfectly well with bossing as well.

I have managed to get it to, 100% avoid ailments + Stun + Spell suppress + 80% evasion with 24% Block. It has become an undisputed tank, even without the HH stacks, HH just adds a hole other level to this for farming maps and T17s get real nutty. I didn't notice a huge difference without the elemental damage reduction as I am stacking resistances the other way with +2 max on chest and +2 light on helm paired with all the flasks. My lethal pride is a decent roll with 2X double damage and 2X fire resist with a crit multi and a life % node. Im still working on getting my crit multi up to 650% but the claw crafts got spendy for t1s so in due time ill get it there. The third mod watchers eye including 15% suppression for skills while running grace is huge, it allowed some fun with the passive tree.

All in all, I will forever love this build and your foundation layed out for me to play with and appreciate your post. I've noticed some comments in regards to squishy t17s and farming and I just wanted to say that if you guys want this build to excel in that area you may consider something like this to help with defensive layers.

the pob is fresh so the gems are wonky but yeah. Let me know if you guys see anything strange but I think I've got it dialed in.


/ just seen tors post above, funny how we both tried to find defensive layers haha - will be checking out your variation. Let me know what you think of mine tho I am curious on anyones input
