[1.2] Rathik's EK build +40k DPS/52.3%Crit/+375% Multiplier. Anti-Reflect. "The Immortal Shuriken"
Hi.
" " " " A spell I really like is ethereal knives. I always liked the idea of a spell caster doing physical damage. EK does just that, high damage with out uber gear. The problem with high damage though is reflect. And since most casters out there go CI and EK does mostly physical damage, reflect is a big issue since its hard to stack armour on a CI build. This setup uses life and armour to counter reflect and it does it pretty well. This build is an alternative to wanderers build. Personally, I think it does it better and cheaper. "30 exalted for a wand? No thanks.." Important, read first.

A lot of people keep asking me the same questions over and over, mostly about gear. There is a section in the guide that talks about gear and how to optimize it. Stop linking me items and asking me if is OK to use and what to upgrade first. Read the guide, take a look at the gear that I am using and how I am itemizing and try to match it or surpass it. Use common sense please. Use http://poe.xyz.is/ to shop for gear, flip items, make profit, etc. If you are playing PoE and not using this website you are simply failing. Also learn to use wiki http://pathofexile.gamepedia.com/Path_of_Exile_Wiki Also gem combinations, if you want to use another gem use it, stop asking if is going to work or not, test it your self. If your DPS is low and your gem is still at level 15, well duh, the answer is right there, your gem is low level, go farm some more EXP. For the skill tree, if you want to go out of your way to get something, for example resist, just go ahead and take it if you need it. I don't mind answer questions but a lot of questions that I get, simply are not worth replying to or have already been covered in the guide. Regards Skill trees WARNING. Think twice before taking "Spell Power" (40% crit multiplier for spells) and Arcane Potency (30% critical strike chance 20% critical strike damage) You should balance your armour with your damage output. DO NOT cast Critical Weakness on reflect monsters. Leveling Section

If you are a new player to the game read this first. Courtesy of Mr. maladeth, Mr. Beedon. Apparently I was wrong. New players can easily pull this build off. Good stuff.

It needs to be said, that I leveled this witch using my power leveling guide. You can find the link in my signature. Its a lot faster. Depending on your gear, you might need to get some DEX/STR faster, mana and mana regen and maybe some resistance which you can respect out of it when you optimize your gear. Also you can drop some mana regen skill points depending on your clarity level. If reflect is an issue avoid taking critical multiplier nodes until you have enough armour. Item recommendation " Witch " Scion " Current gear. Really not that uber. You can also dual wield daggers or wands. Void battery works great if you have one.

" 6L Armour. Most versatile color combo is GGRRBB " With this color combo you can do all type of maps. Replace Added fire with Life leech on elemental reflect maps. Replace Iron will with Life leech on physical reflect maps. Replace Faster projectiles with Mana leech on no mana regen maps. On low regen maps use Iron Will over Added fire damage due to the mana cost. Less versatile combo GRRBBB, you can't do no mana regen maps. " Suicide mode, Increased critical damage instead of Increased critical strike. A 20/20 Increased critical damage will add 223.5 critical multiplier. One shot rare mobs? Yes please!!! 5L armour Most versatile color combo is GGRBB " Auras " Level Arctic Armour according to your mana regeneration. You don't have to max it. Even a level 10 Arctic Armour is very powerful. " Don't level this Cast when damage taken gem. " You should level these Cast when damage taken gems according to your life pool. It should be around 20% of your life. Somewhere in the range of level 8-10. You have to figure the level yourself. " " Gear optimization

I believe monster life would only be increased if the players are in close proximity.
Based on the quantity of items dropped on your video I think they are just same as single player game. edit *correct me if I am wrong* ign: thirsty_guy GMT+8 http://www.twitch.tv/ray1122 Last edited by raytkh#7785 on Oct 2, 2013, 3:49:26 PM

" You are wrong :) Monster life increases when another player is in the same instance regardless of where he is. You do not get any extra drops or extra exp if they are not in proximity though, that is correct. You can test it your self. IGN Riokar | My guides [2.0]Non legacy Mjölner.
