" it was probably answered long ago but idk how to check all the pages in this post efficiently... so yes molten shell is useless, if i have no armor it can store very little, the stored damage for me is like 150.. :)) now im trying steelskin and its looking better.. it can take about 2500 damage for me, which is kinda nice (no place for more gems so only cwdt+steelskin) im able to have level 17 steelskin gem and level 20 cwdt (for level 18 steelskin i dont have enough STR) |

Hiya!
I've got pretty good gear and gems already, but I'm still looking to improve. Damage or defense wise, it doesn't really matter. I've got 980k DoT on PoB at the moment, if that matters. My gear:
Spoiler
I know the setup in my 6L chest is a little... unorthodox. But I just needed spots to put all my gems. And I wanted the blasphemy-despair aura badly, because I also use the Despair Impresence. So yeah, what could I do to improve even more? Open to suggestions! |

" Get the -chaos res mod on an ED helmet (preferably ES base), and craft these elder fingerless silk gloves. Also get a Mark of the Shaper with a good corruption, because that implicit is useless. Also, using Eldritch Knowledge is not a good use of a jewel socket in my opinion. Look at my tree for how to path around there without using that jewel, and put a 4 mod rare jewel in there instead. There's a jewel slot near Melding you can put a 4 mod rare jewel in when you refund the int nodes you are using for that jewel. edit: you also probably want faster casting over efficacy on the gloves, because the point of the totems is to reach max debuff cap. You can always put portal gem on the weapon swap if you need an extra gem socket. ~ twitch.tv/animeprincess ~ everything was beautiful and nothing hurt ~ Last edited by xsnowingx#1952 on Aug 6, 2019, 10:50:15 AM

" Do you know the bench tactic? Set 2 red sockets from bench on the boots, set to 3 sockets, if you don't have three red sockets now, set back to 2 sockets and then back to 3 sockets, repeat until you have three red sockets. Then set it to 4 sockets (retains the colors on the first three sockets as red). This tactic uses cheaper jewelers less than expensive chromes (using the chrome tactic). |

" Thank you for the advice. I redid some of my tree, leveled up to 93, got a new helmet and different amulet. Biggest thing I noticed was that my chaos resistance was way too low. Just going to +50% chaos resistance solved alot of my issues. Something I totally missed going full ES with this build. |

I notice sometimes my contagion spreads to multiple packs across another screen/room (chaining to different packs), but sometimes it only affects one pack. How does this occur ?
