I just changed whole build to a double curser RF arcer (see helmet) DPS stays same 12K for me but massive hidden DPS. either run double damage curse like conductiveity and elemental weakness. Or massive life heal Warlords mark + elemental weakness.

After playing some ele reflect map, the flask nodes can just barely sustain the reflect. My life is still diminishing at a slow pace when attacking a huge pack size of mobs at the beginning of the fight. this is the first time i wish that the shield is 2L instead of 3L.

Warlords mark seems like a good solution to the problem, but which gem should be replaced.

The obvious solution is to replace faster casting. However that reduced duration will also affects the curse duration sadly.

Swapping out the the empower gem linking to arctic armor is a solution when facing ele reflect. But, it lowers defense and is quite troublesome.

Nonetheless, I am able to find a simple and elegant solution


Maybe I will 2L my shield and find a better replacement for my ring, if warlord's mark lives up to its title of hard-counter to reflect mod.

This adds up to 310,8 regen per second. But the important part is the Rise of the Phoenix shield, giving you 6hp/s. This is the part of the shield that gets overlooked a lot.

For myself im running a lvl 22 Vitality. My Boots have an extra 2 hp/s so i could easily run lvl 20 Vitality.

I admit i have overlooked the life regen.
I think it is risky business to take consider #hp/s instead of %hp/s, as #hp/s does not scale with your hp pool. You put yourself in a bad spot that any increase in hp pool may screw you over (lving up gives more hp).

Yet, again I am wrong. Every tiny bits of details matter.

Today, I finally get my vitality to lv20 and fail vaaling it to lv 21. I then experiment removing 2 aura effect nodes (total 12%).

I discovered that i am able to sustain rf with my hp regenerating 1 hp/s.

That tiny bit of life regen from rise of the phoenix barely allows me to sustina rf.

With 26% buff effect and 92 fire resist, RF burns 9.072% life per sec
6.3% life regen, 26% buff effect & 36% aura effect from tree (total 62%),
1) + lv20 vitality (1.65%) regens 8.973% life per sec
2) + lv21 vitality (1.7%) regens 9.054% life per sec

To sustain rf (let x be the max hp)
Life regen/s >= Burn dmg/s
6(from RotP) + 8.973%x >= 9.072%x
x<= 6060

Thanks to rise of the phoenix 6hp/s, as long as you have less the 6060 hp, you only need a lv 20 vitality + 6.3% life regen, 26% buff effect & 36% aura effect from tree (total 62%) to sustain RF.

PS: I don't think Lv21 Vitality is needed or worth the value paying for it. If you want some life regen take the third 0.6% life regen node in marauder tree.

I ran this build in Invasion and I ripped @89 to Palace Dom. I decided to respec after the patch although everyone thought that the build was done for but, believe me or not, it's way better after this patch. The patch gave me over 600 health and the DPS almost didn't change at all. @93 I'm sitting at ~16k Arc DPS with RF on and ~26k DPS FS DPS. I got ~5,1k HP and due to LC and lvl 22 AA, the build is tanky as hell. I haven't tried Atziri yet, after the respec. I also didn't play too much with it since I'm occupied with Rampage, but the few maps that I did to test were piece of cake.

Show your passive tree.

I am dying a bit too much to those reflect packs (I didn't pay attention). I replace vaal haste with vaal grace for dodge and spell dodge. Are there other ways instead of popping topaz flask/vaal grace before jumping into a pack to enable a nooby reckless brain-dead play-style?




01 Nov 14 - Remove outdated stuff

The New Added Skill Herald of Thunder is a good addition to the build.
(Thanks Briann for screenshot)

In patch 1.1 the build was running haste. Unfortunately, due to aura nerf in path 1.2, this build is no longer able to run it. With the new added skill, we are able to fill in that empty slot and boost our dps again.

Note that Inner force has great synergy with herald of thunder; plus, the added flat damage is boosted by righteous fire too and may be the killing shocked enemies lightning damage too.
Moreover, the lightning bolt damage will be useful if arc gets overwhelm by enemies that it can't kill quickly which is one of the weakness of arc and why it is advice to make it chains 7 times.

The new passive tree to run Purity of Lightning, Purity of Fire, Clarity, Vitality and Herald of Thunder, Righteous Fire and Arctic Armor!!!!

This is my current 1.2 RF Arcer tree.

I've got Charisma simply because i need the aura effectiveness to squeeze another 1% fire res out of PoF

Ive decided not to get the marauder regen as with the current setup i don't degen but i only regen 1 life per 10 seconds, so im just relying on Leech and Ruby Flasks.

And to finish the build i'd grab Heart of Thunder and Cruel Preparation from EB.

Current Stats (Enhance lv2, Herald of Thunder lv17)
4.6k Hp
18K arc
24K surge
0.2% excess life regen per sec (no gear regen taken into calculation)

PS. Vaal Grace is crazy effective in this build if you have the gem slot, since the aura and buff scaling of this build gives 46% dodge and 46% spell dodge even when the gem is only at lv9. I usually use it when fighting bosses, reflect packs, domination shrine, opening boxes (aka dangerous situations). (Can use it to replace the empower linking to Arctic Armour).

PSS. Iron Will can be used instead of Lv3 Empower in chest or Lv 4 Empower in Helm, if you can't afford Lv3 Empower. (corrupted lv3 empower is selling at around 3ex for in standard)
