Alright, LowLife MF dual spork does stand a Chance Post PATCH

My 87 Witch is Currently runnin 70/440 iiq/iir. I was able to run 5 Auras now with a little help from aura nodes. Well, My dps is no RF by any means, But its not bad with my power charges, considering all you need is Culling. Ill link my Gear and my Tree, I Always have more potential to add DPS and iiq iir with better gear. My gear is strictly based for maximum MF THO.. So If you have a prism shield, try it out...its nice having auras on your side!

Bump My thread if you Like.

Feel free to comment and criticize :-)

The Gear








New Helm :-D

I don't think Vitality is that important now without RF. I actually liked to lose Springleaf and be able to wear a ES/DPS shield now, and a resist all in secondary equip for defense.

What is your DPS and ES?

Take a look at my build (http://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/550986) and if you can afford the respecs I think you can improve your DPS. My first respec was a lot like yours but is now improved in all aspects.

Looks like death waiting to happen if you play nemesis or HC... I want my old build back

Gekot, Your build looks ok, but with out zealot oath and vitality, you cant run chaos maps....My ES is about 4000, and dps is 800...when im playin solo I can take heartbreaker away and get more dps with my other wand...closer to a 1000 then.

Running Chaos maps, it can be handy to take Rejuvanation totem and switch it out with one of the firetrap support gems if needed. I've been running 74 and 75 maps With a party today with no problems. everyone was happy with the uniques dropping :-D

Running just high lvl Vitality is Enough to run Chaos damage maps... no prob running any mods other than blood magic.

still dont get it... didnt i have to take blood magic gem in order to maintain <35%life for low life bonus?

No, I dont run Blood magic Gem, Just the Shield.

First off, thanks for posting the build, i've been regretting back and forth trying to save my sporker and this is very close to what i had, but i hadn't thought about that shield before, great idea! Now, the shield adds 2 auras, which are going to be vit / haste. the advantage here is being able to do chaos damage maps, and some dps. the dps is neglegable because you could dual wield wands or have a dps shield, but this makes chaos maps viable while still running the core auras, nice.

Few points / questions.

Wouldn't it be worth it to run 2x rebeaks and drop vit / haste when solo'ing for more dps? Also i notice some of your str/dex req auras arent that high yet and the dex / str reqs will be 151 at lvl 20 so some dex / str nodes need to be taken. Also wondering if the crit / cast speed nodes are worth not taking the 8% dps nodes and the one that adds shock chance.

I prefer not to take totem life as they go down so fast anyway i just recast and rather take the 8% dps. Does the totem life node really make a difference? enough to make it not annoying to recast them so often?

I see some going all the way down to the next totem node for 20% totem damage when those points could add 50% by taking the other dps elemental nodes which imo is much better, again forgoing the totem HP's because you can just summon them anytime.

I will admit totems die aggravatingly fast but it's teaching me to place them to not get hit at same time and refresh before they die ect.

I'm not a fan of trying to keep up power charges, so i dont mess with those, and i preferr taking the "buff to auras you cast" on the right, it gives a bigger % and if others are using same auras yours will be better because of the higher % increase. I suppose they could stack if you really wanted to pump them up, which in the future might be one of the keys to sustaining RF if it can even be done now.

As for curses, i've always used conductivity solo and elemental weakness in parties, do your current auras seem to work better?

One last thing, how does this setup do against merciless dominus? (obviously you can load ES gear then when he gets low TP out and load MF gear)

according to my experience, 2x rebeaks is worse than 2X moonsorrow. moonsorrow is pretty cheap too.
