This is gonna be a noob question but here goes. I've been studying this build all day and i'm still learning POE, always learning something I didn't know before so the thing I don't understand is what is the point in having armor when you're all energy shield and 1hp from CI. It makes no sense to me because the path where you take evasion/armor nodes then iron reflexes for armor kinda negates the fact that your adding physical damage reduction for 1hp so what good is it? Or am I missing something else entirely?

Very nice guide.
Planning to come back for the new HC league and this seems like a perfect fit. Considering we are getting new skills/quivers, what are your thought on the starting class for the most flexibility ? |

" ranger is probably the best starting tree , near to lots of phys dmg and life nodes what can easly get respeced later on. Every Class 100

" theres no physical reduction from CI oO , all Ci does is makes your hp 1 and makes you immune to Chaos dmg so you can stack alot of ES and not die to chaos dmg , you still need armour to not die again physical hits :o Every Class 100

So armor provides damage reduction for the energy shield too? Meaning the more armor I have the less damage is done to my energy shield? I only ask this because it was my understanding that armors damage reduction applies only to damage to your health. If this is the case then I have so much more to think about now.

Yo Fyndel, just a quick question...
Do you think having granite flasks is better than equipping jade flasks? This build has 0 armour (well at least I do). Popping a granite flask, puts me at something like 27% reduction of physical damage. Thing is, for hard hitting physical bosses, I'm not sure this really "does" anything - so I recently switched to jade flasks for that extra evasion. When playing solo, I usually kill the boss fast enough before he/she can even hurt me. I'm talking more about in 6-people parties, when I have to deal with the boss' attacks for quite some time.

" Well that really does change things. I always thought that armor reduced dmg to health. ie your energy shield is on top of your armor so your shield is taking 100% of the damage without any resistance/damage reduction. So can I then assume that elemental resistances apply to the energy shield as well? |
|
" It depends what version your are , if you are evasion ondors i would only take 1 jade flask if you have problems with phys reflect maybe take granite cause the base evasion is already rly high, if your a uwavering+iron reflex then i would take Granite+Jade flask so you can have insane armour.
