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

So does anyone know if power charge on crit can be leveled up past the cast on damage taken? or if it would be relevent to use a quality version for the new links?

Would an added fire dmg gem replacing one of the 3 ek gem in the 6L setup be good trade off?

took my ek dmg from 1832 to 2314 on the 2 other ek left, just not sure if its a good trade off..

just do the math. 2314 - 1832 = 482 additional fire dmg on 1 ek. 2 * 482 = 964, nowhere near the damage of a third ek which would be 1832 if they're all the same level.

How do you guys deal with Life/Mana leech? I tried a Slitherpinch glove thinking that would solve both issues, but the only thing working is the Life Leech gem. I suppose Life Gain on Hit would also work (better than Life Leech gem???). I have high mana regen gear for now which works mostly. Will the Mind Drinker passive do anything? My phys dmg from Spectral Throw is so low that leech seems weak and I don't think the EK is procing leech unless I use gems.

And what bout last boss?/ He hitting me with lightning to much/ 75rez doesn*t help(( Oneshot everytime. Flasks without timing of their use on screen doesn*t help also/ Help me) What to do?

Anyone know if cast on crit or cast on damage taken procs reset Reave? I think using Reave would be interesting.

Learning Dominus' mechanics really has nothing to do with the build.

You need to be more specific about which build you're running, etc...

Life Gain on Hit won't work with EK.

Lvl 79 atm and having a blast with this build

since the cwdt nerf and they now share a cd on the supported gems i now only have 1EK in one of the 4L's with fork and powercharge on crit, the other 4L is icespear-GMP-pcc-cwdt since ice spear gets the 600% critchance on second form

I have 87% critchance on mainhand and 73% on offhand when 3 charges are up, which are almost constant.


My gear atm, still trying to 6L my damn chest, swapped out a few for rf gear

Where do you see that they share a cooldown?

I have no 100% proof of this but i first heard it from a streamer, so i googled around, tested abit myself and from the little i could actually see from my own tests with 3x ice spears on 2x4Links, to easier see it, they never activated more than 1 ice spear in total.

There was also a discussion on reddit about this and they seem to have come to the same conclusion.

now 250ms isnt much and with enough critchance they will trigger enough each cd, but personally i like to use the 4L's for utillity, in this case powercharges.
