Over´s EA Ignite build # EA/Ignite/Prolif/BM (Said good bye since 3.0)
 Hi. My english is terrible but who care : ). Since i got much requests i want create short guide to my build. I play this build since 1.1.0 and tried most variations out. The main idea of the build: some sort of unique ignite build that could do PvP and PvE. My personal goal ist to get highest ignite damage. "Burn in hell!" Why EA? It´s high damage skill that scales fine in endgame.
Offence
Molten shell
Explosive Arrow
To see some real damage numbers go to math section. 
Deffence
Pros & Cons PvE
+offscreen clear +very tanky (you cann´t die if play carriful) +high regen +high damage +can do any mod/map (atziri will be complicated but doible) +old school +can be budget +very safe and easy Labyrinth runs -expensive to get more result (hello chorms) -reflect can kill you -corpse explosion boxes will kill you -medicore movement / ats
Pros & Cons PvP
+ high ignite damage (in most cases 1 fuse is more then enough) + strong curses + 2-3 curses + can be very tanky + high proj speed + unique (since Slathemkids never see another EA based ignite build) - Slow ats/movement - frostwall and ignite immunity counters this build hard - no-very low chance ws fast la users (hi Fanon)
My Gear
+3 bow to get higer lvl of EA for more hitdamage movement-/attack speed Dextery are very important since i use much unique items i use my quiver to cap resistances. You can use alternative Rearguard. Legacy kaom would bring more life and more dmg (since i will drop some life passives) Both rings are used to cap resistances and get some life. In perfect ring would be coral/amethyst leocrafted one with firedmg/all res/chaos res/life Rashkalador caping dextery and give 1 second ignite duration which is huge. Nothing to say here projdmg/speed. If get +1 curse rashkalador will change Winds of change to corrupted one with vuln on hit Damage / resistances / cheap corrupted one with area effect would be better resistances life but must important to get 25%+ movement speed
skills setup & budget
There are to possible main setups: RRRBBG Provide most damage but coloring can be expensive. Used 14k chromes on my bow to get that colors. RRGGBB Budget but RRRBBG setup will do 1.29 times of RRBBGG damage.
Budget
Head 10c-1ex Amu 3c armor 2-3 ex ring 20-30 c each Gloves can be 1-3 ex boot 5-10 ex belt 5-10 chaos quiver 6 ex
What can i dot vs Ignite imunity?
Things like Counter very effective this build. Not much but you can do some little tricks: Swap to Use Searing Touch with . (Firetrap do already without links huge damage). Since i drop most proj damage notes +3 bow with PA became garbage.

Ascendancy
Marauder -> Cheeftane best allrounder my personal choise Maradeur -> Berserk Most damage but nothing else witch -> Elemenalist Very nice for PvE (you can swap to Results in 53% more PvE Ignite damage but lesser surviability.
Math
Offence screen says nothing i will do some damage calculations. Since i donn´t get empower lvl 4 i will do two descriptions to EA lvl 27 and EA lvl 28. Let´s start with some math nerd analything. Edit : following calculations missing 30% fire dmg from ascendacy.
EA lvl 27
Elemental Proliferation -> (0.8-0.79 multiplier) single Arrow damagenumbers 8301-12633 per fuse. -> 14341 / sec ignite I use double curse + elemental EQ -> 174 reduced target resistance. + 54% Fire penetration If the target got 75 % fire resistance total damage per fuse will be 419.133 in 6 sec or 1 shot => 100.897 dps => 504.484 dps with 5 stacks. I use conc effect only on hard bosses or in pvp. -> (1.6-1.61 multiplier) Single Arrow damagenumbers 16945-25424 per fuse -> 29027 / sec ignite Same example here target with 75% fire resistance total damage per fuse will be 856.796 in 6 sec or 1 shot => 208.058 dps => 1.040.291 dps with 5 stacks.
EA LVL 27 PvP Damage
Calculated with https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/50319054/PoE_PvP_DPS.html
Target got 100 overcap fire resistance
initial damage  Ignite DPS  Imagine what happens if you target doesnt overcap fire resistance.
EA Lvl 28
To do. If i get lvl 4 empower.
It´s not the number one build but it stil can do something
 Slaythemkids inspired me to do this build, Ahfack and Marcusz help me with some details and test. Thank you guys.

Nice one, I just find it strange that you don't use +1 curse amulet and vulnerability on hit gloves if your main goal is DoT burn. Also no penetration enchantment on boots ? You already have plenty of regen.

i have no idea why you are not using pierce in your 6l.
i think your build requires very high attack speed to work as intended. why dont you run double curse as blasphemy and use cwdt + flame dash to focus fire your opponent? "You have great power. You're right to be proud. It's unfortunate you have to die now, but I will honor you with 45% of my strength."

" right... for non-wallspam EA pierce is essential.  Last edited by EFBBBF#6521 on May 13, 2016, 12:09:29 AM

Thanks for feedback!
" Both are on my to do list. Need some currency for vulnerability. " Do over 400 runs and not get this : ) " Even not. I will not get much ats to catch some "Flash" bulds like yours. Even if i drop much damage notes. In most cases 1 arrow + curses kill the target. " Becourse i use bm. Single EA use cost 197 mana. At first if i drop bm it burns my mana imideatly. And second after ea fuses it gives 50 fireresit to the target and i correct with multishot. " Just no room for it. Why i not drop molten shell will come later if i upgrade this guide. " Since the only thing i can drop for pearce is Less duration that already gives 30% ore dmg its not e big deal : ) My EA Ignite Build view-thread/1661184 My shop view-thread/1078495 Last edited by begrenzen#4494 on May 13, 2016, 12:39:34 AM

without pierce, this build is only good in your mind as a theory. pierce is a must. and your amulet just for 20% damage increase, i find it useless tbh. you always move slow, attack slow and you can get outmicro'ed easily due to lack of pierce and lack of movespeed.
Warped timepiece and pierce instead of less duration is the answer imho "You have great power. You're right to be proud. It's unfortunate you have to die now, but I will honor you with 45% of my strength."

Nice char! I actually thought you were using burning arrow with a phys bow when I first saw you :D
Anyhow, some random notions to maybe help you improve it: If you really want to be a marauder you should go juggernaut and get stun immunity + enducharge things (this way you can even use blind against crit attack users and you dont need unwawering stance from the tree). Your current ascendancy doesnt really give you anything else except some ignite chance and pen.. Your tree needs a lot of fixing I feel. First of all it has way too much life regen (which is a very useless stat to have in the current poe pvp world). You only need a few (4 maybe?) % max to sustain your skills. Instead of all the regen you've taken you should get more life. 7,4k is very very low even for a non-legacy kaom noncrit EA char. I would probably ditch the whole duelist area since there are so many useless travel points. Profane chemistry node is also a bit too good to not take on a 9k+ life char. Also, try alching 10 i75+ random amulets and you probably get yourself a better amulet :< Pierce gem is a bad idea indeed. gl! Last edited by lapiz#7973 on May 13, 2016, 4:27:36 AM

" not sure if trolling... EA doesn't leave fuse on pierced target. how is pierce fit in ignite build? using pierce is equivalent to 'miss 50% of times' Last edited by EFBBBF#6521 on May 13, 2016, 5:14:16 AM

how can you say pierce is useless? when i put my frost wall on, the WHOLE build gets countered. whole idea, whole effort goes into garbage.
2 mins later: oh, i didnt know EA fuses cant breach frost wall. then, yeah, pierce is useless "You have great power. You're right to be proud. It's unfortunate you have to die now, but I will honor you with 45% of my strength." Last edited by Rupenus#5905 on May 13, 2016, 5:16:02 AM
