The Blazing Build

Will a quality RF increase the burning damage and thus be good for this build?
Quality on RF only gives spell power.
Which gems make the most sense to shoot for quality in this build?

Relatedly, do any of the gems absolutely have to be lvl 20 before I switch to RF?

Quality isn't necessary
The only gem you want to try and have at level 20 before switching is Purity of Fire since it hits the 4% max fire res at level 20.

I switched over to RF at level 68 with a level 20 PoF and Vitality and had absolutely no problem. My build is very similar to this one, using the Blood Dance boots and 6 Frenzy Charges, although I've actually spec'd out of 2 Frenzy Charges for now (dropping down to 4 total) due to them being fairly inefficient (point-wise) and opting for a higher base regen instead so that it makes the snapshotting process easier (or any time I don't have frenzy charges up). I'm only level 82 at the moment, when I'm around ~87 I'll probably spec back into the additional 2 Charges.

Heya. Wanted to ask about this tree:



I have a level 88 Scion that can respec to this, all at once.

Plan is to Triple Curse + Equilibrium (trust me, I can do it quickly).

What changes would you suggest, if any? Regen should be Vitality 20 (2.112%), Passives (8.8%), and Frenzy Charges (4%) = 14.912%.

Fire Res = 75 + 2 (Passive) + 7 (Purity of Fire 26 which I can do, yes) + 8 (Rise of the Phoenix) = 92%.

Fire Damage Taken = 7.2% per sec.

Net Regen = 7.714%

Right?

How come in your pvp videos, you are using carcass jack for activating the low life RF? Is using carcass jack an added bonus for the snapshot?


I changed my build to using some high life boots for the swap for more damage. It's just an older video.

I used about 1200 Chroms for mine.

Take the first node from the Inner Force Circle to get 34% Aura/Buff effect. With this much you will have 93 max fire res for just 1 point more. With 93 you would have 8,612% free life regen.
The rest seems pretty fine for me. Offtopic: With tri curse (Elemental Weakness, Vulnerability and Flamability) you would get up to 120k dps (calculated with 8k life).
Thanks for that suggestion, I do think that's a good idea :)

I'll be using a 6L with:
Spectral Throw q20
Greater Multiple Projectiles q20
Curse on Hit 20/20
Elemental Weakness 20/20 (-64%)
Flammability 20 (-53%)
Vulnerability 20 (44% More Damage)

Along with Elemental Equilibrium (-50%) :D
=
-167% Fire Resist, +44% More DoT

Just 4-5K life, but DPS should be silly-high, and party support is amazing.

Now, to get BBBBGG on:
That's gonna be FUN! Maybe I should switch to a Carcass Jack, easier to get the colors, and I won't have to switch one in for the damage/range. Can't use Kaom's except for snapshotting if at all, so I won't.

I dont know why you are assuming monsters have 0 res in your dmg calculation, and the -50% res from EE is the same as the -res from ew / flammability. Its not a fixed amount of damage because monsters can have, for example, 60 res and with EE its now 10 res so you do far less than the 70k quoted. Like around 40k, for example. I hope you understand. 70k dps is misleading, but it was nice for a catchy topic title. And monsters can be curse immune with magic mod or map mod now too. So I would just say its 33k dps RF.

When people quote dps, they dont take curses or resists into account, because those are very variable.

And I dont know why RF snapshotting is allowed, but aura snapshotting was fixed ages ago. So obviously broken and bs.


just wanted to bump this

This sounds like a great idea. What gear do you plan on using tho?
