DonaldF's EK DANMAKU Ranger Extremely High DPS /Jan.14 little update [Videos]

Easiest way to increase defense IMHO is getting block and dropping some dps and crit nods to get all life nods. Have you tested ungil's gauche + stone of lazhwar? Grace rather than hatred? Are you running cwdt+immortal call+enduring cry?

I would suggest using cwdt+enfeeble+summon skels too. Critical weakness won't be as good when you reach very high lvl and play in 78 maps as you will prefer to stay alive. Dps from this build is already overkill also

Hello,

i am lvl86 at this moment and farming maps. Can anybody tell me, if Point Blank in the Passivskilltree is worth to get (right site, down) for Cyclone + Ek +Fireball/Arc build?

Thx for the tip with enfeeble. the maps are easier now.



Thx alot and good loot

Point blank only works with projectile attacks

The rules are simple.

All "Projectile Damage" boosts EK.
All "Spell Damage" boosts EK.
No "Projectile Attack" boosts EK, because nothing in POE is both a spell and an attack.

Attacks always use weapon damage, accuracy, and can be blocked & evaded.
Spells don't use weapon damage, and cannot be evaded, and can only be blocked by spell block.

Point Blank therefore doesn't help EK, because it says specifically Projectile Attack, not simply Projectile Damage.
Also, I'm 99% sure all the physical damage increase with weapons doesn't help either.

GGG is pretty precise about these terms.

Ok i found the answer in the site 61 of this thread from Dezember. So it does not work, because the name is projectile attack and not projectile damage. This i why i do not realize a damage push by this passive and no damage push by notes on gear "+phsyical damage on weapons", but a very great push by the note on the belt "increased physical damage".

So thx for answering, but it was answered already in this post.

PS For some gear update tips i would be happy though

Got it

Ok, so I`m a bit noob and I have some questions:

1. Will it work if I use 2 cwdt at lvl 1? They will both work? And what happens if I have enduring cry on both cwdt and immortal call on one of them, immortal will trigger last and consume the charges of both enduring cryes?

2. Cyclone won`t do much damage, will it? It gets the damage from the weapon, right? So if I use Ungil`s Gauche, it won`t do damage, but it`s job is to cast the crit, am I correct?
If that`s so, would it work to use Power Siphon instead? I`m just thinking about a good way to get power charges...

The first enduring cry will trigger cooldown of enduring cry for like 3 seconds.
So the second enduring cry will not be triggered.

The first enduring cry will be triggered only if gems in immortal call chain is correctly setup. Enduring cry after CwDT only after both immortal call.

Its job is to cast crits. Good way to generate power charges is: Whirling blades -> CoC -> Power charge on crit -> (ice spear)

Any veteran player here using the Endgame DW dagger + AA version?

Care to share how much mana regen is needed to run Level 20 AA? Also, since he recommends hybrid gear, how much HP is considered good?

Thanks.

cwdt has 0.25seconds delay for each gem so if you got 2 cwdt and 2 enduring cry, only 1 will be used, even if they're not linked together. No point in worrying about what gem procs first as cwdt can proc 4 times per seconds and immortal call will be active most of the time if you link high lvl increased duration.

the weapon dmg is useful only for mana leech. Ungil's will hurt your critical chance, so you'll do less spell dmg too. power siphon can only be used with wands, not daggers. A good way to generate power charges is linking it in whirling blades+faster attacks as it hits a lot of enemies or spectral throw+GMP+power charge on critical+life on hit if you take vaal pact (to heal when on low life).
