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

i have a question regarding hc and mid-tier map survivability: i am currently sitting at 4.3k HP/1.2k unr.Mana but feel way to squishy. in particular i feel like im not mobile enough to stay in range in many cases. might be caused by chilled grounds, vine snares... alot of stuff basically. together with hard hitters/betrayal content i needed to esc->char select ALOT. any advice what i should keep an eye on?

Is there any 20/20 gems that are better than 21/0 gems that I should know about?

Asking b/c I've got Storm Brand & Added Lightning Dmg in this prob

I don’t understand the question. For most your gems when it reaches 20, you will vendor it with a GCP to get a 1/20 gem and reliever it. Once the gem is 20/20 you then decide if you want to corrupt it for a chance at 21/20. Arc is one of the few gems where quality provides us no benefit, so you don’t need to worry about that. Ideally, all your Arc support gems will be 21/20 (which is very expensive). If you don’t know, read the quality description and decide if quality on a particular gem is useful. Same goes for gem level (I.e. L22 Wrath provides the same spell damage bonus as L23).

I kinda messed up and vaal'd a backup storm brand & added LD supp before making them 20/20 and now I'm not sure which version is better

Plug it into PoB and see for yourself. It really does suck getting a 21 corrupted when you have no quality. I did that earlier to an Increased Duration, corrupting it at 11% quality. “Luckily” it didn’t hit 21. I’m guessing 20/20 would be better for most support gems.

Hi guys i need help with what to upgrade, i got 3ex to spend. Where can i improve the most?

These cost me a grip to craft but totally worth it....thanks big realize!!!

I notice many people make daggers, crafting 2 of them. But why nobody make a mirrored copy via fossils? Isnt it cheaper? Or i dont understand something?

And 1 more question. How much ex you need to minmax build? in average. I have around 20ex, and curious if thats enough to make decent build (already have inpulsa).

Planning to buy Kris and craft 1 dagger, then mirror it(never did it so probably im wrong...).

Thank you.

because any resonator completely rerolls all mods on an item
The only way to mirror an item and keep its mods - mirror of kalandra

Thanks @blg_RealiZe for crafting this for me



Now to farm another 4 exalts for the second one

Your profile is private so I can only give recommendations based on the gear you linked.

Helm: the crafted prefix is a local modifier, so it only affects the item it's on. Since your helm has no energy shield on it, the craft is completely useless. I'd replace it with max mana. Try to look for a similar helmet but with a Bone Helmet base or with higher life/double resistance rolls as a possible upgrade.

Ring: you can try recrafting the life mod on it for a more high-end roll or get the hybrid 34-40 life and mana craft on it to free up affixes elsewhere. Upgrade this slot with a ring that has >40% resistance roll(s), life/mana and a useful offensive stat in the future.

Belt: you're missing tons of life from this slot and evasion/ES barely benefits us. Get a bad rare Stygian Vise that's item level 75 or higher, scour it and spam alterations and augmentations until you get a >80 life and a >40% resistance roll. Regal it and hope for a useful affix (preferably a second resistance or flask effect duration) and enchant it with what's missing (resistances, flask duration or mana if you need more). The abyss jewel should also be replaced, it only gives you one desired affix. At least get >30 life and lightning damage to spells on it, but another offensive stat that's useful for the build should be easy to get by alt/regaling a Hypnotic Eye Jewel.

Boots: another slot where you're missing a lot of life, resistance rolls should also be higher. Buy a rare pair with >90% total resistances (have one of them as chaos if you can afford it), a >80 life roll and a free prefix to craft movement speed + chill immunity or onslaught on kill veiled mods on it.

This should get you quite a bit of survivability.
