Sorry to bother again, but: Actual i use Doedre's Scorn (with 100% increased buff by your fire elemental).

Have 1299 Int, 7061 ES, 2417 scorhing ray damage and 1348-4045 icestorm.

So as requested i just bought a black sun crest with 13% increased int. After i weared it instead of doedre's scorn, my intelligence is 1404, but ES dropped to 6442, my scorching ray damage dropt to 2302 and my icestorm damage moved up to 1410-4229 ...

So is this as it is meant? For me it seems my doedre's scorn is better instead of the new black sun crest?

Any ideas/hints?

Thx Mydgard

SR damage isnt important at all.

Maybe, but around 600 ES less isn't unimportant ... i think i will stick with doedres until i find a good belt with more intelligence

@Baldrick: how much coins he wanted for the shavronnes? I found candiro who wants to sell headhunter belt ... but ... for 21.000 coins :D no way, have had about 1500 ;)

It cost I think around 8700. I only had about 1k, but spent 40c on the rest. If you have the chaos, do it, since those things are worth tons.

Hi guys ! Currently lvl 63 witch in dried lake merc :) I have few questions:

- I just spend 350+ Jeweller's orb on my staff( was 5sockets 2L before that) and spend all the Alts orbs i have to buy them from pnj. what's the best way to buy them ? Is there just my bad rng or wrong way to 6sockets ?

- I have really bad Belt/Rings/Gloves that i want to change. I have 40chaos budget. I suck at searching on poe trade, I found nothing yet, and didn't drop good stuff ( tried the craft section of the leveling guide, but didn't find anything)

-When should I changed the boots ( 70) and the chest ( drop 400+ ES chest ? ) ?

- Do you have other advices on my character ?

Thank for the answers and sorry for my bad english, Belgian here :D

First of all, i finally 6s my staff :D

I on the guide saw that Auxium Crystal belt is the 2nd best choice ( before the essence crafting )but don't understand why.

What's the budget i should put into gloves/belt ?

I really need to change gear 'cause even dried lake merc is hard to run with the stuff i have atm :s

And about vigilant strike, i put a fortify support on the leap slam gem, i think i got the same result, and my move skill il also use to tank dammage. Did i miss something about Vigilant Strike who could be essential for survival?

Leap Slam takes 0.8 sec to cast, has about 60% chance to hit a single target in high tiers and gives you a 5 sec Fortify.

Vigilant Strike takes 0.45 sec to cast, always has 100% chance to hit and gives you a 12 sec Fortify.

VS was hard to target until one of the recent patches. Now it's easy to use and far superior to the Fortify support added to Leap Slam. It's nice to auto-fortify when you leap into a pack (with multiple targets it always hits something because Leap Slam is AoE), but it's not really needed for clearing. And against the bosses getting a 12 sec Fortify quickly and reliably can be a life saver.

Thanks for this advice, i dind't realise that vigilant Strike is effective for 12 sec, obviously better tran a leap slam + fortify, who force me to jump again and again, when i have to fight a very strong boss ^^ I will change that asap!

A last question, when the ball lighting activate from Cwdt, is it consider like "using a lighting spell" from the ascendensy node "Mastermind of Discord"? Because sometimes i forget to cast the orb of storm, not a realy big deal, regarding the large amount of dammage this build can inflict, but i wonder?

For 15-20 chaos, you can have realy nice boots or gloves, with Int, Es and some rez if you miss some. For your boots, you can use Rainbowtride ( but you will need to change later) Not bad ES, some rez, mouvement speed which is always nice to have. You can add me IG, i can trade you for very chipe price my oldest gloves, they have a decent ES(137) int, cold rez and +11 all attributes.

Hey everyone, and sorry if this has already been discussed, but 300 pages are quite a lot to read everything.

Is Flammability an option as the second or third curse ?

Is it better to go Elemental Focus and pass on the ignites, or rather keep the Concentrated Effect, to keep the occasionnal ignite ?

Right now at level 50 I don't really see the drawback of Concentrated, because the Icestorm is cast so much while channeling it easily covers my screen when fighting huge packs of monsters.

Auxium is the 2nd best because it is cheap, has lots of ES, and makes you much less susceptible to being frozen. End-game you want an INT crystal belt (preferably with ES and resists), but that's quite expensive.
