2.0 Mathil's Life Crit Ele Kinetic Blaster - Cheap, easy, effective
Hey all, I'm actually planning ele wander with Piscator + Alpha + Tabula/Belly and I'm researchin'.
So I have couple questions: 1. Does faster attack nods and faster spell casting nods both counts when using KB? 2. Is it good to take the whole wand cluster when I want to use Piscators? Or it is better to scale elemental damage? Also I'm pretty sure that propably Tempest Blast from this cluster won't work with me? 3. Is it worth to go for Ondars Guile when I'm playing torment? 4. Is it good to go for Vaal Pact? Does this help much? Propably this help when fighting Atziri/Dom (something when there's one boss and you 1vs1) rather than mapping? 5. How much life % increased from tree is reasonable? 6. How much reduced mana % I need from tree to run Hoi+HoT+Anger+Wrath? (I gonna use Alphas Howl) 7. How nods Increased Effects of Buffs on You are different from Increased Effects of Auras You Cast? I have read whole topic and PoE Wiki but wont be able to find answers for this. Great thanks for clarification. This is my attempt on planning the tree. If anyone can tell me if this is better than starting from Shadow when Im going pure ele Last edited by ziew#7568 on Dec 29, 2014, 6:30:47 AM

" 1: Just Faster Attacks 2:Skip Tempest Blast as piscators has no phys damage 3: You don't want to die to reflect so ondars is a big deal. Basically reflect damage is done as the same type recieved. This means that any reflect on you with KB is counted as a projectile. Ondars means you will dodge/evade almost all of the damage. Even in softcore diying sucks. 4: Vaal pact when you have lots of damage. However without physical % Leech you will be relying soley on life leech gem. 5: for hardcore 130% minimum I believe, so for softcore maybe a little less, but dying still sucks 6: Offhand I think it is like 8% but that is probably wrong 7: Buff effects affect heralds (I think) which aura effect nodes don't. I think buff effect also affects potions and arctic armor. Hope that helped |

" Hey that helped a lot, thanks. But I'm still thinking on the point 2. I mean, I believe I would want more ele dmg and less aps cause spells are costly to cast. And for standard approach in this topic, there is about 76% inc ele dmg + 60% inc proj dmg + 98% inc dmg with wands, in my tree there's 166% inc ele dmg + 12% inc spell dmg. And I have 30% more inc life. The question is, does inc dmg with wands and projectile damage scales good in this build when using Piscators? How this is calculated? And I will also add that with Piscator's I dont have a mana leech from phys, so regen from the tree would help Last edited by ziew#7568 on Dec 29, 2014, 9:59:45 AM

you need 12% reduce mana reserve + alpha to run 4 aura above
and i'm using piscator, you need about 120% mana regen to get 70+ mana regen/s to spamming KB 3 or 4s, i don't know how much to spam all the time, as you won't leech mana from anywhere and yes, with 4 auras and piscator boost your dmg alot. I'm plannig to get piscator, amulet and rings, belt with % element from weapon |

You will need 16% from tree+alpha+reduced mana on lvl 19 and You will have like 5% of mana pool free, it will be very painfull for You to achieve.

" From my experience you can be cool having enough mana to shoot 2.5-3x KB, so if KB cost is 66, you need about 200 mana free. 150+ pDps wand + 2%mana leech and you can spam it harmlessly. Other helpful option is using some high ES shield (200+) but it will cost you survivability from evasion you should get there. Maybe with lvl20 reduced mana or even corrupted 21, 4 auras would be possible to use, not only got activated |

The trouble is tha You wouldn't have 200 mana pool. Average mana pool is 700-750 so there is absolutelly no way that You would have 200 mana free. If You have like 10-12% mana pool free on lvl 20 reduced mana, it gives You like 70-90 ish depens on gear of mana to use. So You need to even more than double the mana pool which will require mana nodes, Eldritch battery and some badass shield which will cost a fortune or You will be forced to completely drop the defences from your shield (which should be your main source of evasion), which furthermore disable You from using Acrobatics and makes your Ondars suffer even more due to lack of evasion (belly, low eva shield). Good Luck facing pack of Devourers on BloodLines then ;) and reflect mobs without vaal pact.

Hello guys ! I just started a char (shadow ) following this guide . My question is : can the treee be reworked with EB so we can use artic arm ( i am playing torment) . Since i have some ES gear( not the best ofc , just started playing again after 8-9 mounts ). I started the build cuz of this beauty i gues i need to drop some of the phys nodes that i toke before since the wand is ele dmg. MY question is , wich nodes i need to drop out (Tempest blast + all the 15 dmg with wands or .... ? ). How you would remake the tree if you wanted to use ele wand + ES(or AR/ES EV/ES) Armour + AR/ES or EV/ES Shield + Eldrich Battery + artic armour ?
Ill post some of my gear and i would be glad if some 1 can help me . Thank you in addvance guys!
