Greetings,

Petit, I'm pretty new to CI. I just recently took the plunge and converted, I'm currently running at 5.5k ES out in the field. Was wondering if you have any tips on flask utilization, like which ones I should look for. MODs? Should I keep at least one or two for minion healing, and what about the others? On of each elemental resistance? Any uniques? Etc.

I already have the Ammy that makes me unable to stun. Should I get any other uniques? Rings?

Thanks in Advance!

To me, having 5.5k with CI is not worth it. The advantage you get from doing so is you get to use more utility flasks and chaos immune. Doedre's rings are cool, but you will need massive resist somewhere else. Unless you don't really care about getting a 4th Curse.



I personally don't think that Minion flasks are that great. They aren't dying at all with Animate guardian Consec ground + bone offering (+Fortified Legion jewel) unless it's a big hit like Village Ruin Bulldog.


Flasks in general is like...

Freeze / Bleed / Granite %armor / Quicksilver
Instant Life and or Mana

Immune Curse maybe?

%Charge recovery or +Extra charge

If you're using utility, you wanna have the Bleed and Frozen on them so you're immune for the duration of the flasks. Lightning and Fire resist ones are recommended. Cold don't really hurt much in most situations. I do have a Hybrid flask that I use for No regen maps.


Uniques:
Taste of Hate works kind of like a Sapphire / Granite.
Rumi's Concoction gives you block chance and 3000 armor
*These are the very last items you would want to get along with good jewels.

Thanks for this response. I'll consider the flask mods and try to get them as soon as possible.

You mention that at 5.5k, CI may not be worth it. Do you recommend getting CI at 7k or above, or something like that? I actually even like the CI at 5.5k, because as you mentioned in your guide, it provides alot of flexibility when finding gear. I don't have to "have" chaos resist in my gear to make it a considered purchase. Without CI, it's a must to have Chaos Resist on gear when buying.

I'll try with the 5.5k some more, if I am finding that I am dying way to often, then I'll resepc. With CI I have my resists pretty much at max (due to my jewels), and I only lack some cold resists, but as you mention, cold doesn't do too much damage.

I'll try to get some more ES on my chest. Currently it's a high end 500, I'll see if I can get a 700. 700's go for 1-2 ex. and a EX hasn't dropped for me yet.
