What types of Jewel mods you would recommend?



List sorted from best ( and max possible values ) :

1. 7% increased maximum Life
2. 16% increased totem damage
3. 8% increased attack speed with bows
4. 12% increased projectile damage
5. 10% increased damage
6. 5% increased attack speed
7. 8% projectile speed

#1 rule is you need every jewel with "increased maximum Life"

If you want good and CHEAP jewel buy 2 stats ( above ) blue one and use regal orb on it. If you get lucky you will rise jewel value about 30X

How do you think this build would be for MF? It doesn't seem to get a ton of damage from gear, so would it be possible to run a little squisher and focus on MF pieces? The leisurely pace of play seems like it would be really nice for MF, and I'd like a change from CA builds.

This is totem build with huge range, that kind of build can do almost everything if map allows to make things off-screen. On maps like Arid Lake, Springs, Gorge, Plateau you will be fine even without res cap using very crap gear. But if you want make hard stuff like Atziri MF it's propably not build for that.

But honestly I'm not sure, you must test it personally because going MF it was never my priority. Maybe you can manage somewhat harder maps. Anyway if you plan check it, plz write about your experiences here.

Got merciless lab done just now, was easy with the build.

I now have decent resists and 20k ballista damage with a tabula, i aim to replace it now with something better.

What are some good uniques to fit the build? Rat's nest or starkonja head, any other options?

What about chest slot, i could aim to replace tabula with another unique if i can keep up my resistances(hesitant to change the tabula for now though, its a big drop in damage to go from 6link to 5link)

Somebody tested Reach of the Council?
Do you see it as must-have item, and should i start collecting currency for it? :)

btw :o

Queen of the Forest http://pathofexile.gamepedia.com/Queen_of_the_Forest is good very high eva robe at affordable price.

I mostly trying avoid too much unique items use because that gimps your hp and resistances. Starkonja's is good option having 100hp and some dmg. Rat nest is bit higher dmg and movement, but sadly no offers hp.

That new bow is good, but I believe Lioneye's Glare is still real king.

What's the reason for going Pierce gem when siege ballista already provides 100% pierce? From my knowledge that should alreayd give 100% increased damage via Drillneck no?

yes pierce is capped at 100% only by Siege Ballista gem itself but that is reason:

Gotcha, huh, are you saying the increased damage from Pierce is still better than any other possible support gem for Siege Ballista?
