Enki's Arc Witch Memorial Page & POE 2 Arc Summary
" This is what I was concerned about. either we have to use 20 GCP's to raise to 20% quality before Vaal'ing (expensive since it's 5 arc gems). Or we have to vendor our level 20 gems to get them to 20%, but then we have to level them all over again. Is this what we should be doing? |

First league. Just hit act 10 and I'm lvl 68. Confused about reserved mana and with HoI, HoT, and Zealtory (25%, 25%, 50%) to say nothing about clarity. Am I supposed to be swapping HoT for HoI once I have The Three Dragons?

Question - How do we shock enemies with The Three Dragons?
Do I need the "Shock nearby enemies while focused" mod on a ring? or are there other ways? I'm guessing add fire damage somehow to arc? " For a start, I'd use Heralds of Ice and Thunder comined with Zealotry. Last edited by PrettyCasual#3565 on Dec 16, 2019, 1:04:13 PM

Assassination
+35% to Critical Strike Multiplier 30% increased Critical Strike Chance Where exactly does it state that it gives crit multiplier and gloal crit only to melee? "

WHY ARE YOU YELLING AT US?!?
Sorry, but this question probably has been asked on nearly every single page and answered as many times. Apart from the fact that it's also explained in the leveling section and in the Ascendancy section of the guide. You simply have to read it and follow it. "

You were never supposed to use HoI and HoT at the same time. In the leveling section it's said you should get HoT and use that (for now). Then later you're told to get HoI and "put it in your secondary weapon slots" (so you do not use it immediately, you just level it in your secondary weapons). Then again later the guide says "Get [...] Zealotry in town and replace Herald of Thunder if used". And much later, once you have enough crit chance to relialy shatter enemies with Arc, that's when you were supposed to use HoI.
Since so many people were still too confused about this and asked on every page, Enki simply dropped HoT from the build one or two days ago (it's not in the Gem section anymore). Seems he forgot the part in the leveling section. So, you're not supposed to use both Heralds and Zealotry at the same time. Math says no to it anyway. ;) Last edited by Cendrake#0301 on Dec 16, 2019, 1:57:47 PM

It is not necessary to get quality on Arc. All that gives you is 0.5% chance to Shock enemies per 1% quality. But we do not go for shock. In fact, we cannot shock at all anymore, because of The Three Dragons mask ("Your lightning damage can freeze but not shock"). At least if I understand it right. They changed the shock mechanic again iirc and overall it just requires too much investment in Shock effectiveness to reach that 50% damage increase (iirc you'd need 230-something % shock effect for it).
I guess that's why Enki also tried to avoid Shock this time around, by going for Three Dragons Mask, and dropping Inpulsa, in his effort to make the build more budget and beginner friendly. This also meant that we do not have to go for every shock effect node that there is on the skill tree, plus Beacon of Ruin, plus use jewels with shock effect. And we could drop Hypothermia and don't have to worry about a source of cold damage anymore. " See above spoiler. Last edited by Cendrake#0301 on Dec 16, 2019, 2:23:21 PM

To everyone talking about 20q%ing arc, DONT waste your GCPs. Arc quality gives chance to shock. It is absolutely worthless for this build. There is no reason at all to qualy arc. Just vaal them once they're 20 and pray for 21.

How I can craft the staff?

Confused after the last set of changes to the gems in the leveling section. At what point do we get Clarity? It was in the old version and is also specified in the summary but not in the detailed section.
