about abaxoth - there was bunch of vods with abaxoth kills i don't think i could explain it with another wall of text, you can clearly see what this boss does i might share my kill strategy later Last edited by ekunholy#6839 on Sep 16, 2014, 8:38:32 PM

Using this build (currently with EB, planning to try hybrid because of "hp buffer" from vaal haste for atziri) in rampage
I have 2 question: 1) what do you think about new trend - curse on hit? something like Q arc - curse on hit - ele weak - flammability or (5link if no quality on arc) ball lightning - gmp - curse links? it will save time (sadly, curse on hit doesn't work with totems) 2) how to "mark" atziri during clone phase? arc will chain and all atziris will be marked, and i want all spirits attack the same target |

" Curse on Hit alternative Since curse on hit saves you the time to cast totem and one curse, you can use this time to cast more spirits. As a result you may get more real-world DPS than you would with generosity-hatred because you have more spirits out. For longer fights, or for fights where you would require two casts of arc to apply EE/curses to everything, you will get more real world DPS with the spell totem setup. It's up to you to judge which setup is best. Staff: SRS-Echo-MPD-Multi-Msplash-Empower Armor: Dur-Flesh Off-VHaste-VDisc Hat (Alpha's): RM-Haste-Discipline-Hatred 4L: Arc-Curse on Hit-Eleweakness-Enfeeble 4L: RM-Blood Magic-Clarity-Arctic Armor 2L: Free. FasterAtk-LeapSlam or CWDT-EC or ?-? Taken from OP. |

DAMN ME(c) Bestel :D
i didnt read ekunholys post in op careful enough and made same error, but for me it was fatal. i reached 68, bought 20\20 srs, equipped it in my 5l staff and got 83 manacost while having 84 unreserved mana, and when get into map, was desynced like hell and got slammed by first pack i met on the map that apeared to be savage murk fiends. :D overgear sucks No rest for the wicked

I had it 5L Used about 250 alterations and I got lucky - +2 fire and 17% cast speed came together Not rly lucky usage of regal orb on it - increased cold dmg I wanted to go for more dmg so I crafted - increased fire dmg Overall I think I am very freaking lucky with using only about 250 alts... Good luck DEATH & THRASH

" That doesn't help your minions at all. Craft mana regen next time. OP: Thanks for this build. With mostly L18/Q0, L19/Q0 gems and meh gear, I was able to take out Residence Dom. I have Alpha's but I'm not using it yet because Dex. So, no Hatred and only L12 Haste for now. Geofri's Crest until I find more Dex. My one piece of advice for anyone else doing this self-found or otherwise on the cheap: do not skimp on Q for your SRS gem! I was planning to level mine to 20, GCP recipe it, and re-level it. Screw that. Just put 20 GCPs in it straight away. It matters that much, trust me. Last edited by Worloega#5516 on Sep 18, 2014, 9:10:45 AM

Thank you for the build and the analysis, great work!

Does SRS benefit from increased fire dmg stats on items? I thought as they were minion that they only benefit from +minion dmg and not +fire dmg.
|
|
" They do not benefit from +Spell, +Fire, or +Elemental DMG from items or passives... only linked support gems and +minion DMG as you indicated. |

Staff crafting question:
If you craft +2 fire or +1 to gems w/o a suffix and you arent looking to craft an elite item would it be worth skipping the augment and regaling as is? If you regal a prefix you can then master craft Elreon's multiple crafted mods (suffix, 1 divine) and get cast speed, mana regen as well. |
