[2.6] The Curse Whisperer - Tri-Curse CI Whispering Ice Elementalist - Viable for Everything

Has anyone had any luck rolling the RRRG using the 3 red socket craft at a bench? (on gloves not helm)

I've burnt through a lot of chromes at 120 a pop but only got blue as the alt. Maybe you can't get green or im just unlucky :D

"At least 1 green socket", that's the best way and cheaper

Ya i gave up on that +1 lvl on discipline since it isn't that amazing anyway (is what i will keep telling myself). You can google Vorici gem calculator. It can estimate which method is best to roll the sockets you want depending on the attribute requirement of your gear. Which should be 2r 1g for 100 chromes.

Also hex proof sucks so much. I think i will always reroll it from now on - in red maps at least.

You can def get RRRG using vorici 3R from bench

Okay - am I missing the mana leech part? I'm sure there's something about it but I can't find it. Just hit a map with no regen =/

*edit* I'm using warlords mark for now (forgot I had one) is there another way to leech mana through spells without the gem?

the downside of elementalist is that two of his 4 notable ascendancy points, paragon and pendulum, are worthless against bosses.

Huh? Pendulum gives extra damage, that's always useful. Paragon is elemental defense + retalliation:

For each Element you've been hit by Damage of Recently, 8% reduced Damage taken of that Element
For each Element you've been hit by Damage of Recently, 40% increased Damage of that Element

This is amazing against the endgame bosses. Uber Atziri/statues hit you with fire and get owned for it. Phoenix hits you with fire and gets owned for it. Hydra hits you with cold and gets owned for it. Shaper hits you with cold+fire and gets his face melted for it. :)

pendulum gives extra damage AND extra aoe. for icestorm, extra aoe means less single target dps. so the two effects of pendulum roughly cancel each other out against bosses.

the damage buff from paragon is nice, but no biggie either. this build reaches a combined value of sources of %increased damage of around 800. adding another 40 on top of that is really no dealbreaker. if there was a notable ascendancy passives that reads "gain 40% increased damage", would you take it? no, because the ascendencies usually have something more powerful to offer. but those 40% are all that paragon gives you for bossfights. I'll admit that my wording was too strict, paragon doesnt provide "nothing" for bossfights. but it certainly doesnt help that much either. its mainly a mapping node...

Thanks for this and the other comment.

Vorici RRG is best according to the calc at around 875chromes on average, so will keep going with that.

This is my first char playing magic and ES so I'm kind of noob and have few questions. Hop you guys can help me with them:

_How much ES should I look for on armor, gloves and boots for end-game contents. I'm kind of squishy atm, even T1 boss could 1h me sometime.

_Apparently I can't outleech income damage. What is the main problem of that.

_I have no idea what is wrong with my skill tree, can you guys take a look at it and tell me what should I fix.
