I need some suggestions for where to start upgrading my gear. Currently lvl 63. I have a very nice ES vaal's regalia waiting for me to 6L it once I hit 68. I have a very nice dagger which I can use next level.

I'm working on getting a Maligoro's soon. Also I have the head piece strictly for the resists so i can run docks without issues.

I do feel that my dps is low but I'm not quite sure where/what to work on first. Any suggestions would be great.

Also note that I HAVE NOT specced into Ci yet since my ES is only at 1.2k. What's a good ES to make the switch?

Even though your Vaal regalia has nice resi, I think it's a bit low on the Es side. If I were you I would'nt go through the hassle of 6 linking it. If you have that amount of fusings, keep them for a chest with better ES. Remember ES is really important for this build, and the chest slot will be your biggest source of Es.

What's the iLvl of the chest by the way? I had a similar one (with same Es and nice resi) with iLvl 76. So I scoured it and then crafted a 800 ES one from it (using alts and regal, then i exalted it and got thorns, so I stopped the process :/ but still it's not a bad armor).

I find good ES chests aren't as hard to craft as other pieces because there seems to be less affixes available on them (I've managed to craft 3 800+ ES chests so far, each one costing me less than 1 exalted worth of currencie to get the 2 good ES prefixes at the regal stage, but maybe my luck was just crazy, dunno).

You should have at least 2.5k for ci. The boot knife is good for this build at low levels but at 60s you were due for an upgrade a long time ago. Did you get the Vaal Regalia with those colors? It's a rare setup having only 2 blue sockets. Does anyone know what affix the es mods are? Maybe it's worth using Divine Orbs on if it's possible to roll them higher but I'm not sure.

His affixes are Scintillating: Local Energy Shield: 73 to 106
and Fearless: Local Energy Shield +% 65 to 82

But I don't think it's worth investing that kind of currency on it.

I'm not home right now to find out the ilvl but If what you say is true then I could just sell that piece and then buy a better one. Of course I am not using it right now, so my ES would be increased by this piece and then inc by the ES nodes after CI.

Definetly keep it for the moment then. Even later if the iLvl is high enough it's a very good crafting base (6 sock and a good color combo as said earlier).

Someone tell me if I was wrong about the points?

I made a low lvl pvp build based off this build. Utilizing the more es node gives the opportunity to get a large amount of hit points at a low level for fewer nodes so that you can still pick up Flaying and Nightstalker nodes.



I'm at over 700 es with a 446 dps double strike. I still need to level the gems but I'll do that another char so I don't get near level 29. Here is my gear so far So there's still room for improvement. I haven't tried much pvp yet so I'm not sure what's out there.

Should I do this build or the hp/armor version? PLs help me decide!
