Thanks for the guide and thread Hegemony.

I've been watching your stream and I see you're leveling another wander on Nemesis. I'd like to do the same but I haven't got much in the way of currency. I do however have a Berek's Grip and quality FP, Ice Spear and Cold Snap gems, so I was thinking I'd level with these and line up what I needed for a decent wander. The game is still new to me, I don't have any characters in maps or even higher than 55 yet, and the league is set to end not long from now so this is all for fun.

I'd like to get your input on this build if you wouldn't mind.

Spoiler

I found this Berek's and since cold and lightning are my favorite anyway, I thought I'd try an ele wander build around that, incorporating Frenzy > Cast on Crit > LMP > Arc > Ice Spear/Freezing Pulse & Power Siphon to keep up Frenzy and Power charges. I'll utilize Tempest Shield & Crest of Perandus to keep up high block. I also like Arctic Armor so I'll go Eldritch Battery to balance the AA cost. I'll link CWDT > Enduring Cry > Frost Wall to help defend me from ranged since I probably can't reach Ondar's.

I modified your FP leveling spec for Nemesis by taking all the life nodes I could reach:


Then I built this (optimistic) 108 point ele wander tree:


i. How would you rate this build? Do you see it as viable for getting into maps before the league ends? I tend to solo, but I'll have a few friends doing maps once I get to the appropriate level.

ii. Can you recommend any skills that you'd see working well with what I have here? What about auras? Is there a better single target option than Power Sipon?

iii. What stats should I look for on my gear to support these? Attack Speed, Crit Chance, Crit Multi, Res, Life & Evasion?

iiii. What level can I expect to switch over to wand from FP/Ice Spear?

Sorry if these questions are too general, I am still quite a noob.

Thank you very much for your help. See you in the stream!


I tried fixing up your ele wander build based on if you want to use Power siphon: http://www.pathofexile.com/passive-skill-tree/AAAAAgMBAnEEBwSzBbUHYwj0DkgRLxGWFE0WQBcvGYUZ1xoyHRQegR8CJDwkqiepKMUpTy0fL28wcTGIMok2ezbFNuk6QjvhP3NJO0lRS3hLjUw1TLNQMFFgVdZXK1fiWm1e-l8qYqxjQ2TnZk9mnme9bRlwUnB9cLt35XjOeQN-WX_GgKSBSYIegpuFfYhri3qPRo_6naOdqqIAoqOnCKcrp1yplbI4tKO0xbb3wFHAVMHzwuzGotMb1CPWndgk2RPbAtsL217dqOL342rjhOaB6-TsOO5v8B_y4fO-8-r60vyr_xw=

I added more block, removed the nodes at the top, gave you 1% life regen, gave you more ele damage, dropped inner force for influence because they are better nodes overall. Removed the spell crit by eldritch battery because that doesn't work for power siphon. Dropped Heart of the Ice because I Don't think it's worth 3 points. I don't know how good this would be because it only has 170% life but I mean if you want to try it you can. Personally for a life based ele wander I would either go Templar or Scion because they have more access to life nodes. The witch tree is the worst starting area if you want to go life.

Something has got to give. I tried to create a wander for the longest time. The toon is up to level 75, some nodes to back out yet (about 7, so not too many). Otherwise I have the wand nodes, and most of the dps sections of the batman build, next to pick up some crits.

I don't know how to linkmy wand, but it has the following:

cirt chance: 8% (base)
phys: 81-178
2-25 lightning
298 accuracy

buffed with 6 power charges and 3 frenzy I am only doing 1200 - 1300 DPS. I feel the want is a reasonable wand to use for a physical wander, but where / how am I lacking so much damage?

Thanks in advance :)
I am still working my way through all the pages of this thread so hopefully this question hasn't already been answered 20 times.


If the idea of handling reflect is to use block plus evade then where is all the evasion coming from? The gear shown is all armor gear. Do you get all then needed evasion from a Grace Aura?

I have a L77 wander (passive tree so you can compare). Assuming your wand is a 1.5 attack speed Imbued Wand, I have about the same wand you do. My DPS is about 1200 in town, ~2200 with charges and Hatred up. This is enough to destroy whites and most blues (except for the act 3x blues, I have lots of problems soloing those, so much more hp).

One thing you might be missing if phys damage in other slots. Wanders get a large amoung of +% damage from the tree, so added phys damage on gear can have a huge effect.

For example here are my rings:




Town DPS goes from 1190 with those on to 956 with them off.

Also are you 4 or 5 links on siphon? I have a 5L with lmp/chain/crit damagge/added fire (wed is slightly more damage at this point but 14 more mana per attack that I cannot afford). Quality gems can also bump DPS quite a bit (I have a 14% siphon but no other quality gems). Check your accuracy, that's another thing that can lower your DPS if gets too low (mine is 89%).

Wanders can scale very high but it's a lot of work to do so. I love playing the wander but my crit dagger shadow is far less gear intensive.

Link your passive tree and gear and I will help you out.

Yes, all of his evasion comes from Grace and the nodes over by the shadow that give %evasion and %Energyshield

Hey Hege, I was really keen on rolling this build come the new "domination" league.

Sifting through each page on this thread, i noticed you said you dont recommend rolling this build as a first toon on any league.

Is that because it needs alot of funding to get functional/decent?

On a side note, i was also gunna roll your Immortal Wukong build or atleast a variation before as well lol.

Gearing cost is non-trivial and early in a 4 mo some of the gear (especially wand) just won't be available.

Here's what I've spent on my dom wander:

1ex wand
1ex carnage heart
1ex rings
2ex 5L chest
1ex rainbowstride
1ex and change high es angelic sheld

That's 7ex and my gear is junk compared to hege.
updated upon request. enjoy!
