[2.1] Voltaxic LA by ad1ce (Talisman Rank 3)

BTW, from what i read from GGG, GMP/Chain should apply their penalty to poison too... Is posion still impressive despite of that for AoE?

Poison is based on the damage of the hit, it doesn't interact with gmp/chain directly.

Support gems affect ALL effects of the skill. Poison is one of them.
Chain provides "less damage" modifier. IT will be applied to all skill's effects, including poison.

Projectile damage is "general" damage and is applied to ALL damage made by projectile (attack, spell, DoT, etc). GMP provides "less projectile damage" penalty. Since Projectile damage is "general" damage type, its modifier will be applied to ALL effects made by projectile, including DoTs like Bleed or Poison (or Caustic Arrow's cloud, or Exlosive Arrow's explosion).

So, you're wrong, Chain/GMP DO interact with poison directly (GMP - only for projectiles, though).

I think, yes. At least, worth a try.
After all, Snakebite has HP, unlike many other unique gloves.

Any updates on the guide? i've a 5L voltaxic and the dmg is lacklauster compared to my previous chars (swt,ED) and survability is meh without kaoms and decent evasion. Hows your dmg, can u clear t12s at decent speed?

For blast rain, which links do you guys think is the most optimal for 6l if you have the option to? For 5l it seems like the consensus is BR - FA - WED - CONC - POISON.

Slower Projectiles is much better gem than FA. It has no downsides for BR.

Added Lightning Damage is a great gem too, depends on your gear though.

Void Manipulation is even better than Slower Projectiles, unless you have lots of non-lightning damage from gear.

If you get Snakebite, you can free up 1 gem slot (are there ARE good gems you can put there).


So, no way you'll ever use FA for Blast Rain. There're so many better gems....
And if you use BR for AoE, dont put conc. effect there.
Personally, i found BR being THE BEST bow skill ever, both for AoE and single target. Its base damage is just OP.

So I just hit 90 yesterday (in SC Tali) and I love this build.
Doing some pretty risky maps I finally hit 90.

Gear:
Spoiler


Tree

I experiemented alot with the tree and for SC I hate going for the scion lifewheel..its so far away and I think I'm fine with 5k HP and LC.
It takes some skill, but so far I did up to tier 13 maps with relative ease, I died a couple times to my driver failing (AMD -.-) and ONE oneshot from a beyond mob that I still don't understand since I died in under 0,5sec.
Aside from that, pretty much everything is doable, my gear is not super good, alot of improvement can be made.
I think its possible to hit 5,5K HP without the scion wheel.
Sitting @17K LA DPS with 7frenzy and 3power.
I really want the acendency calss trees now... Voltaxic with higher basecrit will be insane.
AH and I did Atziri like 4 times, 3 of them deathless pretty easy on this char.

cheers


do you run 3 Auras? without bloodmagic gem?
im sorry to ask a very retarded question but how are you running arctic armour, 2 heralds and wrath?

am i missing out something here becuz even with the jewel that has 2% reduced mana reserve:

arctic armour (22% mana reserved)
double heralds ( 44% mana reserved)
wrath ( 43% mana reserved )

thats a total of 109% mana reserved :/


EDIT: i forgot to use alpha's howl when testing
