" Yeah, I grabbed some jewelry last night, not anywhere as nice as yours but the extra life and mana regen allows me now to run arctic Armour without issue, where before my mana would go night nights with it on. |

" good to hear! on another note, experimented with empower in place of incr. burning damage for fire trap and it seems to work out better. gl leveling empower though!  Build of the Week 14

Just made my CoD 6 socket and 5 linked, afraid to lose all with 180 fusings left..
This build is awesome though :D (P.S. Buying 6 socket CoD in HC atm, msg me @ICanFreezeWhatCannotBe) |
|
" I crafted a 6 link CoD last week :) Just buy some avg rolled CoD and fuse them, if you get a 5l just sell it for about 2-3 Ex. I was pretty lucky and crafted my 6l after the 5th 5l :) Last edited by Steifoss#3940 on Jan 20, 2014, 8:27:19 PM

How come you are not running grace inva?

" Nice 6L, gratz! Be wary of the physical spell damage map bosses! " Good question. I didn't find attacks that scary in the end. It was always the physical spell damage mobs/bosses that dealt the most damage. Ondar's Guile + my puny amount of evasion + Acro dealt with the attacks quite well, but aside from Phase Acro, nothing helps against spells. I found having the 800 or so extra unreserved mana much more reassuring than the extra 26% or so evasion offered by grace. Build of the Week 14

I see.
So TLDR : Hardcore-viable material for not experienced players or not ? |
|
" Well, tbh i would not recommend playing hardcore for non-experienced players. I do think this build is probably one of the easier ones I've done though, and you could do worse than building a HP-based spellcaster Build of the Week 14

Just got a quick Qestion for you Invalesco.
Have you ever considered running Ele Prolif instead of Added Chaos? Done it today in a 75+ map group and it was amazing. I also swap out Added Lightning Damage in reflect Maps because i almost 1 shotted myself 2 times ;( First near death experience was in a 71 reflect map on a fractured bear. Second oneshot almost got me on a reflect map with 50% packsize. Everyone who is running this build should be very carefull in reflect maps. If you have party members who also shock enemys things could escalate very quickly. Also try to avoid ele reflect + -max resist!!! Heres a litte update on my current Gear with lvl 87 :) sitting on 4.1k Life and 1.8k mana atm :) next thing im gonna safe up for will be a Void Battery, im almost there with 15ex Last edited by Steifoss#3940 on Jan 22, 2014, 10:27:02 PM

" Gratz on 87! Ah be careful in ele reflect maps - pulse them from afar to minimise the damage. Also, I wouldn't pulse a fractured rare. Fire trap's there for a reason! Do you have a Lavianga's? That flask helps mitigate reflect well because of the recovery offered by it. If you think you're dealing too much damage, try speccing out from some crit multiplier (heartseeker cluster) and grab the HP nodes at the top of the shadow tree (near Pain Attunement) or the 8/8/12 cluster near Pressure Points. And yeah I'd avoid ele reflect and -ve res as well. No reason to do that deadly combination. I've thought about using ele prolif, but didn't really see the point when most things were dying within 2-3 pulses. Is it because of the freeze and shocks offered by it? Added Chaos is a safe support because it doesn't reflect, which is why I like it. I guess ele prolif would be a better option in a party, but not so much if you're solo-ing. Ah gl getting your void battery! Although I'd try not to neglect ur survivability as well :p You should be able to get more HP upgrades on ur gear. Build of the Week 14
