Yes it works out agains bosses really well too, The shock also allows you to do alot more damage, I'm going to chrome my chest now to try out added fire damage for you all, i'll be back soon. Used over 2k chromes so far lmfao.. Out of currency atm will try more later..	Posted by BACKREAP#0596 on Jan 10, 2014, 9:58:40 AM Banned Quote this Post
I went EK-Cyclone-Life leech-CoC-Inscreased area of effect-Fireball/arc depending if it's a boss or not and seems to work fine.	Posted by Beastoeast#0507 on Jan 10, 2014, 10:09:47 AM Quote this Post
Ok guys, I've tested Added fire damage, Been active on this build since the very start and spend many. many exalts into it, I'm happy to tell you guys that Added fire damage is insane, It beats everything else in every single way possible, I Feel just as strong ( Maybe stronger? O.o ) Then before while using Added fire damage and just one EK, I just killed Dominus in seconds just like it before.	Posted by BACKREAP#0596 on Jan 10, 2014, 10:22:23 AM Banned Quote this Post
Nooooooo, now we also have to spend 2k Chroms xD But thx for testing. I got a pure Evasion chest but still it seems to be very hard to get 3 Red. Odd enough... Other question. i used this combo But as you can see the crit isn't good on the offhand dagger. Now i bought this cheap and i wonder if it's the better choise since the high crit but lower spell damage. Any ideas?	Posted by nockitsch#0836 on Jan 10, 2014, 10:38:12 AM Quote this Post

Second one is a lot better, Always focus on high basic crit, Spell damage isnt really (THAT) Important, its good, but base crit is better.

Thx for replying that fast :) Nice little collection you got there hehe. Did you try the Added fire gem now in another chest or did you achieve to get the 3G3R on your Carcass?	Posted by nockitsch#0836 on Jan 10, 2014, 10:50:45 AM Quote this Post
Yeah, replacing your 7.x% dagger with a 9.x dagger is a no brainer. Also, thanks Blaes for the info about Fireball. What about Firestorm? Trying to 3R/3G for added fire is frightening^^ D2 4ever ;) Since 2011 Last edited by MrPom#2304 on Jan 10, 2014, 10:59:33 AM	Posted by MrPom#2304 on Jan 10, 2014, 10:59:07 AM Quote this Post

Tried it out on the 3g-2r-1b replaced bm with it, i could really notice a huge damage boost,Elemental reflect will get more dangerous tho. ( I think ? )	Posted by BACKREAP#0596 on Jan 10, 2014, 10:59:44 AM Banned Quote this Post

Sadly at the time the build for me personally was not sustainable on end game maps (groups, not solo) with ref mods, as we know. So disappointingly I stopped playing the build :( Being one-shotted by your attacks on mobs is not very pleasant and not worth it at all. So now after the GGG change to CoC (with EK, not something else), I am wondering if the build can manage reflect end game maps? Probably not? Perhaps there are players that has tested CoC > EK now? It's definitely a lot better now vs reflect. It doesn't hurt as much overall (bit less DPS) and more importantly the DPS being more consistent means u can stop cycloning/get out of there before dying more easily. Life leech also has more of a chance to do some work. 88 COC x 1 EK is less all or nothing/one shot yourself than 68 x 2 EKs. I did a 75 map phys reflect map last night without much trouble (on a tabula too). Plenty of 74-76 maps with the odd reflect pack here and there. lvl 86 to almost 88 without dying and i wouldnt have bet a dime on me doing that before the patch...
