Enki's Arc Witch Memorial Page & POE 2 Arc Summary

How do you avoid stunlock in this build, I find myself being rushed down especially by betrayal bosses and stunned to death before I can replace totem or move out of a telegraph?

While it's not part of the build, I've been using Herald of Purity. The pets (so far, at least) are excellent tanks and constantly spawn while you're fighting since Arc tends to bounce to enemies you might not even see. I have no idea how this will hold up later on in maps though, not to mention it eats some mana for MoM.

Thanks will give it a try, starting to feel the pain of fortification betrayals a lot when they are grouped and get mini stuns in all over the place :)

If you remember, let us know how it works out. I'm curious if it works later in the game as a viable method of drawing aggro off you.

Soul of the Brine King pantheon helps with stunlocks

also i'm using Cyclopean Coil for now while i dont have Inpulsa, + Winterheart amulet as anti chill

If you're lazy, like me, try the trigger socket craft with Storm Brand

Sorry for the dumb question but what exactly do you mean by trigger socket craft? I can't find any info on that on google

What can I do against ranged monsters like Porcupines? Their needles kill me like 99% the time. 4.4k hp, 2k mana and actually enough damage but i die really quick. My resistances are capped and all are over 100%.

Hi OP,

starting out with Enki this league. Loving the clear speed so far and now pushing for end game content.

For more damage: scepters or daggers?

What is your personal preference and why?

Would someone mind looking at my profile and tell me what to upgrade next?
Budget is around 10ex in Betrayal. I'm at red maps and can clear up to T16 if i pay alot of attention to not get insta-gibbed. Working towards the "boss dmg" atm. Thanks in advance ..
My last question got answered with "go play another build"

Could someone explain why we need shock effect on abyss jewels if we opt for them and what that does for us?

There's a lot more details in Wiki. With ascendancy we get a minimum shock dmg, and increased shock effect can take it up to 50% extra damage. From my understanding, more important for stuff that doesn't die within a few casts like red map bosses/Betrayal, Shaper/Elder, etc.

Standard I presume? Looks to be a legacy lab enchant that is super powerful now. Nice find!

Yea, Standard on their profile. Pretty sure it doesn't exist in League :(

Hi, loving the guide but I'm confused on the tree choices where we take duel wield attack and cast speed. Is duel wield a seperate node we have to unlock? I'm not seeing it taken as far as I am. Thanks in advance

No, every character can dual wield the same weapon type. The attack/cast speed nodes are meant for later game to improve Arc cast speed and Whirling Blade attack speed to fly around maps. Follow the guide progressions when to start putting points into it (skip if opting for shield or staff).

To add to Pantheon, more Decoy totem and kiting. Drop totem, WB away, spam a few Arc, repeat as needed.

There is a 3 chaos recipe for it. Too tired atm to take screenshot, but it is on my char in profile (offhand). If you don't have the recipe and want to craft it, feel free to PM in-game (your 3 chaos, not mine :P)

Pretty much stay away from them. We don't have evasion or armor to reduce that dmg, so Fortify and Basalt is all we have to really defend against it. If you are in a map with them, try to play more long range with them. If you dash into a group, dash again to get away then blast them. If there are scattered enough, you can Arc and then quickly WB before the chain reaction of spikes.

Quoted from the guide:
"Sceptres have the better implicit affixes for us and there's two very solid unique choices,
Daggers grant us access to the better movement skill and should eventually be the final choice."

Whirling Blade is enough for me to never switch back to Scepter with this build.
