Witch - [**1.2**] The Party Pooper" Endgame CoC EK/Flame surge-Discharger~Outrageous DPS + Anti-Reflect - Forum

" MindR wrote: Reoxy; thanks for taking over. I have a quite simple question. I have two problems with this build, both being single target melting. I'm currently lvl 76, been leveling with this since late 40's. 1. I run out of mana too quick when trying to take down a tanky single target. God forbid they have life regen. Ran into Xhanos Blooddrinker the other day. He couldnt kill me, I couldnt kill him. (no portals left to get fitting curses). And this is by only running 1 aura, I don't see myself running 2. 2. I'm not sure if they melt fast enough. I just feel they should die faster. I can go to a lvl 70 map with fracture-mod. We can engage every pack as 3, and they can watch me kill everything easypeasy without them lifting a finger. But single target? I don't feel as comfortable. This is my gear: Spoiler This is my passive tree: http://www.pathofexile.com/passive-skill-tree/AAAAAgMADkgQexEtEZYV1xmGGmwc3B0UKk0rCiycLL8tHzvhPV8_J0NjRKtGcUcGSshQQlJTVa5WY1j1WfNd8l76X2pmT2aebRluqm-ecFZxTXyDf8aBSYIegwmGrohCjDaOvo9Gj6aP-pAbkn2SwZMnmG-aE5rPnaOdrp3Eoi6io6cIpyunNKlurEeyOLQMtMW18rcxuJO-OsAawQDBxcHzwuzDbcpKzfrXhtsa29Tb59-w4vflz-ss7BjyHfPd9Uv60vyr NOTE: Yes, I am not following your tree 100%. I felt the need to get Iron Reflexes, the fear of being squishy. So far I'm doing good, and I will consider respecing at one point, even tho the way I have gone so far is working good. I'm not really dying without Iron Reflexes at this point. Do you (or anyone else for that matter) have any advice in regard of the single target dmg? I'm currently sitting at about 5100 ES. Capped resistances. Chance to hit 63%, crit chance 63.9% and multiplier 240%. What do I need to work on? U got really nice gear, but lack accuracy, crit chance and attack speed. Those three will make single targeting much easier. Crit chance and accuracy should be over 80%.

As I suspected. I'm still surviving maps as I usually party with some friends. I still want to be able to melt everything on my own tho. I don't think I will yet be able to alter my gear. If anything I can change my helmet. In the meantime I will look over my tree. I think I can respec from some defensive nodes into crit/accuracy nodes. When I have enough dexterity to drop the ring I will look for one with some good accuracy and crit. (I'm keeping the belt tho, capping resistences without it not working so far).

@roxy hey after watching your video, it seems you don't have any problems with mana at all. can i ask what you done to avoid mana issues? and at what level did it seem to get better? also wouldn't rainbow strides work better than a normal tri resist boot due to the mana boost? and chance to block spells Last edited by bowen123#5553 on Mar 23, 2014, 4:20:56 PM	Posted by bowen123#5553 on Mar 23, 2014, 4:20:35 PM Quote this Post
I just decided to go 'screw it' and respecced into following your tree 100%. I lost 200 ES, but I bought a new helmet that made it up again. To get some accuracy I specced out of 2% to max resist, I will get that again later. Chance to hit is now at 80%, crit 70% but all coming points will go in to that. I will have to get it from the tree as I don't find it likely that I will get any better gear with my current currency. I am still able to carelessly Cyclone into any form of mob at a lvl 71 map and kill everything in seconds without being near death. Even when forgetting to tap Blood Rage. I hope I die soon, so that I will start being more careful. Silsamazing - lvl 100 Witch SilAndTheVortex - lvl 100 Occultist	Posted by MindR#5455 on Mar 24, 2014, 12:56:16 AM Quote this Post
Tried this build in Invasion for Fun (yeah it's a nice challenge I think). I'm only level 59 right now. Here is my build : Spoiler http://www.pathofexile.com/passive-skill-tree/AAAAAgMADkgRLREvEZYV1x0UKwosnCy_LR89X0SrRwZMs1AwUlNVrlZjWfNe-l8qX2pjQ2ZPZp5tGXBScFZw1XyDgUmCHoauiEKIa46-j0aPpo_6kBuSfZLBmG-aE52jpwiyOLTFtve4k8AawFHBAMHFwfPC7MNtzfrXhtrd217b1Nvn37DjhOXP6-TsGPId8-r60vyr I followed the path of evasion from the original build, but i'm feeling the death incoming. Here is my gear : Spoiler I cannot afford a 6L or a 5L Voll's protector yet but, from experienced player, which way should I go now ?

I think u only need about 100 mana per/s and mind drinker to sustain cyclone, ofcourse I have the luxury of having phys dmg on my dagger aswell, but it worked good enough without phys dmg dagger too if I remember correctly. And sure rainbowstrides are excellent for this build, but i dont use them becouse they dont have MF and 20ms is too low for my taste.

how the hell do you battle super desync from cyclone? :P Also I started this on ambush, any advices as we can't get voll's amulet there?	Posted by GreatThree#6786 on Mar 24, 2014, 9:53:04 AM Quote this Post
@reoxy Could you also provide a levelling guide, im curious as to how you levelled (what gears and links) using freezing pulse .... before you actually respected into CI. That would be really helpful (also some tips on when to transition etc...)	Posted by bowen123#5553 on Mar 25, 2014, 1:17:54 AM Quote this Post
@bowen123 I don't know how he did, but here how I did in invasion. Searing bond + flameblast. When I reached level 3X, I started using voll's protector and cycloning (not really efficient) on level 4X, I was doing "fine" with cycloning, killing hard stuff with SB or Flameblast I switched to CI on level 59 (I was Act 3 cruel ready for merciless) I never picked any life node during leveling (I like to keep respect for later) Link used (as I'm poor) : CoC + EK + Discharge + Cyclone and when I switched to CI (until now) I use : Coc + LL + Discharge + Cyclone (adding blood rage since CI helped a lot). I'm now level 66, sitting on 3500 ES and farming ledge so fucking fast, it's my funniest build I ever did on HC.	Posted by Xsicopate#6227 on Mar 25, 2014, 10:42:37 AM Quote this Post
