Im doing this build since a few days now. Still trying to 6L Coil but with Mom, AA and high block the defensive part is still pretty solid.
I really like it a lot. The problem is, dps wise in full party high lvl maps is a letdown. I expected this to happen since I ran a non crit EK back in CB, hp based so its almost the same: great solo but thats it.
I might try replacing mana leech with maybe fire pen and see how it goes.

With a 6L the dps is decent in a party at higher levels but yes compared to a lot of other builds it does lack a bit of dps.

I'm probably going to try getting some more spell damage on the passive tree in a level or so.

Here is my new step on that build, the defensive part is just amazing can face tank anything in Merciless.

My gear at lv 68



no problem at all in defensive part i have some trouble having decent clean time. Recently switched to that wand for +100 DPS compare to claw. Im' still stuck at 600 DPS on incinerate.

Passives


I picked up iron reflex for a solid 3.5k Armor from my current gear.

My biggest concern is how i manage to add some DPS here?

As you just answered, will try to 5L/6L that chest maybee. Thanks

Thanks for the answers, Anders. (tak!)

Given the Rainbowstrides you're using a legacy strides, would you use the nerfed ones? It's 8% all resi instead of 20%.

Im still only lvl 65, but I got more than 1000dps on my incinerate. You don't really need any lifeleach, just swap it for add chaos dmg. The Paw is giving enough sustainability. At lvls 63-65 I was part of some parties at maps lvl 74, and stood on front line without any problems, except chaos damage.

Hi Djidjo,
How do you reach 1k dps ? Are you using lmp or gmp ? I never cared to try any added x damage gems since Incinerate has a 20% base dmg effectiveness so that counts for those type of support gems too.
Would you say that the 8 life per hit is enough to drop life leech ?

I was testing fire pen and of course, if you can drop any other gem from the links it works great.

I think add chaos damage did the trick for me. Here is my gear right now :



After 1 level ill be able to add

I had literately no need at all of lifeleach. The Paw is amazing.. simply amazing.

I got my Cold + lightning resists maxed, and fire nearly maxed, which is no real issue, coz of the arctic armor. I'm playing PoE for like 2 weeks now and this build does wonders for me.

Im trying to just fucking 5l my coil right now


I SERIOUSLY hate the RNG system in PoE. A 5 chaos item should not require 100+ fuses to just 5 link, even after they supposedly 'increased the chances by 25%'

I am not even going to try and 6link it any time soon.

The fact the economy undervalues the Coil doesn't make it a "5 chaos item", first of all, and I don't expect it to stay so low. Second, the 5L chance isn't so bad, you just had bad luck.

a well rolled coil goes for one exalt anyway so just wanted to add that ^^, slowly ppl realize how amazing it is
