" Personal preference, I like the static 44% damage multiplier Faster Attacks provide. You are free to go for Chain, though, and it will work good as well! Life is tough... but it is tougher if you're stupid.

" Personally I think Faster Attacks with LMP over Chain. |
|
How bout this idea - Take out LOH gem and replace it with Chain. So it would be LA, LMP, Chain, WED, Faster attacks for real offense. Use potions for life, and also you can use some frenzy/Elemental Hit attacks to get some more life (from the life leach).

" Hit Elemental Reflect pack, die. No thanks. I don't know why people keep insisting on Chain. If you want Chain, just go for the Blood Magic keystone build version. On a side note, I am not randomly against Chain. My newest character, a HC league one, is using Chain on Lightning Strike, and it is a core gem in my setup. It is a new build I crafted and am testing out. For this LA build though, I prefer not using Chain. Life is tough... but it is tougher if you're stupid.

The most important note would be...
Why do people keep insist on asking about "why does this build not use Chain" when I nicely posted a whole section in which they can choose to use Chain and have a build template for it? I don't get it. If you don't just skim over and actually read the OP, things would be clear. EDIT: OP updated with an explanation of support gem combinations for LA. No more Chain questions after this, I hope. Life is tough... but it is tougher if you're stupid. Last edited by VenatorPoE#1855 on Feb 26, 2013, 9:10:52 PM

Question: Is Projectile Weakness still preferred over Elemental Weakness vs Elemental Resist mobs?
Because I've noticed a dramatic slowdown in kill speed against them and Projectile didn't seem to help as much. If that is the case, would then: Projectile Weakness + Faster Attack (Purity Blood Gem build) equal the DPS of Elemental Weakness + Chain (Blood Magic Passive build)? That's my biggest question right now since I haven't tried maps on this character yet. IGN: Troheim

Why does your best HC tree have IR and not the other HC tree?

"a full respec will be given if the change the passive tree |
|
" VS Elemental Resist mobs use Elemental Weakness and you'll be fine. " The best one does not, the other does. Because it is using Grace. With Grace you get (without any other modifier) 1750 evasion rating, and with IR it gets converted to 1750 armour. What happens next is when you need more armour, you pop a Granite Flask, and since it has +100% armour bonus ideally, it increases the 1750 to 3500. If you also have a flask with +100% evasion rating, you may pop that one as well to boost this to 7000 armour. And 7000 armour for 3 passive points is a fair investment IMO. Life is tough... but it is tougher if you're stupid.

OMG, what's wrong with this thread. Venator making builds and giving advices without even having a single character that is beyond lvl 70 and with builds that are pure speculations??? Am I missing something or what? SERIOSLY - 90 pages??? WTF?
