Scion - [2.0] Low Life Kinetic Blast Wander (for the upper middle class) - Forum

Nicebuild and guide. I definitely will mirror this wand if I ever got enough currency. I have all the other required items already thought. :)	Posted by Sheeptea#4615 on Aug 27, 2015, 7:05:48 PM Quote this Post

Pros: no need to stack spell damage on gear open head gear slot for potentially more energy shield, resistances and accuracy Cons: great DPS loss no leech on helmet However that opened up a new variation with an often overlooked unique item: Prism Guardian. Pros: you can run 3 x 50% auras on life on a single item a few more free gem slots for variations, such as a Curse on Hit setup good resistances, even better on a legacy version Cons: no spell damage on shield in combination with Crown of Eyes very low energy shield on shield I am still wondering, why you scratched Crown of Eyes. "No need to stack spell damage on gear"? I do not understand. Shouldn't spell damage just be an extra, since you are still doing your physical damage? With Crown of Eyes you could pick Pain Attunement for 30% more damage. And then you could make great use of http://pathofexile.gamepedia.com/Surgebinders. Every type of charge increases your damage. CoE also synergizes with the node Spell Damage per Power Charge. All in all, I think this would be better, even without an extra aura. I will try it someday.

CoE does not work with Pain Attunement since its a multiplicative bonus. Used to, not anymore.	Posted by pathofexiletoon#4236 on Oct 2, 2015, 7:15:26 PM Quote this Post
I still don't see why you need to scratch CoE. All you lose out on is some resistances which you can make up for with your gear. You could also simply switch the belt as well to get a nice rustic with resistances. That way if your wand has spell dmg you get a nice dps boost together with the power charges. It also reduces the strain on your accuracy rating on rings which might help with getting better ES/Crit rings. Also in the current state of the game, a CoE is much cheaper than a tri-res Hubris. Why so serious? Last edited by sidorasek#0301 on Nov 12, 2015, 12:34:46 PM	Posted by sidorasek#0301 on Nov 12, 2015, 12:33:42 PM Quote this Post
I tried to make this build, ended up with a pathetic 5k tooltip dps with auras, without charges, got any suggestions on how to salvage my build? Even having a hard time capping resists :l. I've spent 1-2ex per gear piece. Last edited by Gorathon1#1019 on Nov 15, 2015, 4:43:12 PM	Posted by Gorathon1#1019 on Nov 15, 2015, 4:40:25 PM Quote this Post

Even having a hard time capping resists :l. I've spent 1-2ex per gear piece. This sort of build requires a huge investment: 21 Level Auras 20/20 Gems (6L Setup almost required) ~10ex+ Per Ring In total you have to spend approximately 30ex without the cost of Shavs and Wand.
