[Strongest Solo Variation: Projectile Madness Spectres] LMP/GMP Ice Spear 2x Totem 2x Curse 3x Traps

i think this build falls off quickly late game
or you have to link so much support gems to that ice spear
May i ask why are u going into the critical strike chance cluster? "-20% increase critical stike chance" does it apply to spell critical,because what i understand is that it only apply for physical atk and not spell atk,since if it would be apply to spell,it would have the word "spell" in it

Thanks for joining me last night, Hypershatter.

I'm sort of puzzled by this;

"DO NOT LEVEL YOUR CURSES GUYS! Sorry I just tested and found out its definitely not worth the extra mana to use leveled curses. Instead link the curses with an increased AOE blue support gem. You will be out of mana less often now."

While it does seem like a good idea, I'd lose a good amount of negative resistance on mobs.

44% to 32% on both Frostbite and Elemental Weakness

Which is 24% resist between the two.

Thoughts?

Edit: Increased AOE really ups the mana cost, jeez.

please look at my new 90% crit chance build :D small variations big difference.


so what skills do we use additionally?

Power siphon+LMP?

then as usual bear/fire/conv traps, ele weakn/frostbite/crit weakn


with chain (not mandatory but easier), power siphon will be ur main hand attack (left mb). before it was just a movement command for me.

Also for 6L, i am thinking of putting added lightning dmg with ice spear. since its 92% crit 2nd form and 50%+ crit chance first form, and 10+ spears per second, shock stack can be done instantly almost. added with static blows passive (1 point in nodes)

can also be done in 5L, but that means you take out reduced mana which can be hurtful for those short on mana.


Wtf, can you attack with power siphon while having double totems? Or did you just theorycraft and forgot you cannot deal damage with your skills?

I assume it still doesnt do damage but u can still get charges.

Where does the dex come from in this build? How do I use traps/frostbite etc? Right now I'm only level 25 but I haven't hit a single dex node and I just don't see how he's getting dex
You will at some point want over 100 dex and str, or one of the two you might get a bit under. Whether that is gear, passive points, or both is a judgement call.

You are forced to get 3 +10 str nodes on the main path (2 by double totem, 1 going to shadow). The shadow line has a +30 dex in the middle of it. Note near chaos resistance/CI there is a +30 dex and +30 str node, you can take one or both when/if needed, last I checked by 50 the build included it. There is another +30 dex/+30 str point on the outside as you head towards the templar portion, I just had to pick those up since I had so little dex/str.

So:

30 Dex/Str In build
30 Dex/Str By chaos resist/CI, 1 passive each
30 Dex/Str 1 +10 Int node away from build, so 3 points for both.

Plus starting 14?, 104 dex/str should be plenty with a bit from gear, I certainly plan to be careful leveling any dex/str skill past a 100 requirement.
i just cant find a 5 L armor... i ve got a 4L, what should give more of a damage boost? increased critcal dmg or cast speed?
Hi,

i tried to follow the advice to use low level curses, to make it short now i had to cast more often to reach the same abount of mobs! Okay thats obvious so far..

So 2 time casting lvl 1 frostbite is just 7 mana less then casting it one time, and i have to cast it 3 times to reach the same amount... not to talk about the ~15% damage diff...
i guess the lvl 1 curses are just handy when u just kill really small groups.
Im having a terrible time in cruel act2 with my witch(45level). Im almost always getting two-shotted! (long rant ahead)

hypershatter you have to help me out this time!

My stats so far:
480life - 228energy shield - 476mana mana regen. 52.6
My resists are 75%fire -5%cold 75%lightning.

As you can see my stats are terrible!
Mana regen is just not good enough for double totem.
I dont have enough mana.
I get two shotted from archers(act2)
I like my casting speed( but its still not good enough!)

What i noticed so far:

Biggest threat is:

1. ARCHERS
2. ARCHERS

Best solution(IMO) is to focus on fast casting! Because you cant do anything against fast archers! you have to cast something to defeat them. Fast casting is life saver but because of poor stats(life and es and res) im having hard time.

How can you say - oh you dont need good gear, when with this build you need crazy good gear!

This is my skill tree

Can you help me out and tell me about what to go for? (resists, what kind of gear to replace with what kind of gear) And about skill tree - i feel at this point i just have to go for more mana and jump in double totem) but leveling is getting hard.

p.s. (i want to regret 3 crit spell chance into more mana but im out of currency)
I dislike rarity so much im almost quitting poe2. GGG.

He did state some where that altho gear is not going to be that essential you DO need to have decent gear in cruel/merc. there is no reason you should not have decent gear at 45 honestly. I see you have expensive gems, warlords/gmp+lmp etc. Im guessing you spent currency buying them early on. I would spend time on upgrading gear choices over gems honestly.
