I need to improve the glove and boot, but your do not have mana regen. I can kill monster 1 hit, but the mana drain is high and regen mana is low Check the updated Play Style session and the gem link session for more information. General advice is that: DO NO SPAM flameblast; and do not use CE for mapping. You can use Reduced Mana Cost for the 6th link if you don't get use to the "Hit once, hit hard" playstyle yet. :D Ok, will swap Controled destrucion for reduced mana. if i cannt use FB to kill all mobs, then clear is slow. i want find the balance for this. loonger, please, u can make some videos with u playstile? i need see Recording video may not be viable on the PC lol. May try later. :) A tip about mana management: do not spam flameblast. You don't need to spam it anyway, either in mapping or in boss fights. And use at least one elreon ring.

" IchiMorghulis wrote: Started playing around with a sixth link and was wondering what other people's preference is. For me, faster casting - inc burning damage - empower - inc AoE. I have a lvl 4 empower and it doesn't "feel" much stronger than a 5 link. Faster casting allows me to move a fraction sooner on bosses and normal mapping it just feels smoother. To the OP, I'm thinking about getting Hex Master and Holy Fire instead of Alchemist and the socket next to it. What's your thought? Hi. Holy Fire does not worth it coz it only scale the burn. Fire/elemental dmg which are double-dipped are the way to go. Hex Mater used to be good. However in Atlas the curse effectiveness got a heavy nerf on bosses. So might not worth it now. One jew slot can easily provides more than 25% d-dipped dmg (fire, area, generic dmg) which is huge. In addition you can get some reduced mana/str/dex/cast speed. Jew slots are pretty powerful. In short, the damage of the current tree is already high enough really. No need to worry about it. :) Last edited by loonger#5545 on Oct 4, 2016, 9:10:16 PM	Posted by loonger#5545 on Oct 4, 2016, 4:33:24 PM Quote this Post
Oct. 5, 2016. Updated three versions (Base/Agility/DPS) of skill tree. Added a question regarding DPS in the Q&A session. Added tips for the Phoenix fight. Last edited by loonger#5545 on Oct 5, 2016, 12:34:07 AM	Posted by loonger#5545 on Oct 4, 2016, 11:19:57 PM Quote this Post
Hey.

Double golem is highly preferred. It effectively gives +60% d-dip damage. The final dps will be close the 25% fire pen. Be noticed that "penetration" and "reducing resistance" are DIFFERENT. Penetration only works on the initial hit. It does NOT double dip. In addition to the DPS boost, double golem gives additional +18% cast speed and grant golems immunity to elemental damage. It's a no-brainer for this build.	Posted by loonger#5545 on Oct 5, 2016, 1:11:29 AM Quote this Post
Hi i try to made a flameblast since i like that spell and so converted my Flicker Oro to Flameblast. My fb is low level for now but the problem is in survivabilty I can see that you don't take Ghost Reaver or Eldritch battery......so how you defend beside Enfeblee? I feel too squishy My equip Spoiler My Tree Spoiler https://www.pathofexile.com/passive-skill-tree/AAAABAMCAA18ES8RUBXXFecYXRhqGyUc3B1PHdkfGCGwIvQo-ilPKo0rCiy_LpQy0TT3Nbk22DwFPO89X0NURUdFfEZSSRtJsUuuTLNQQlH7UlNTNVRHVkhWY1fJWAdd8mZUaPJremwLbRlzs3gvfEt85X_Gga-Cm4V7hq6IQow2jHaPGo9GkPqTJ5Z0l4WXlZeXl_SYrZo7m6GePJ7En9-hL6a-pwinK6yYrfGxBbQMtUi4k7jQvorAZsHFyL_K080W0B_UB9fP2CTZW9o63I3fbd-K6QLquutj6-7sGOw47FXvfO-I7-vwa_Fs9HH31_k3_Ew= Last edited by Redvex#6842 on Oct 5, 2016, 1:56:59 AM	Posted by Redvex#6842 on Oct 5, 2016, 1:56:21 AM Quote this Post

You can check the survivability discussion in the Q&A session. In short: 1. use TC instead of Enfeeble. As a CI who has over 10k ehp you dont get one shot easily. TC is a HUGE survivability boost. 2. Take the golem ascendancy node to have two golems that are immune to elemental dmg. 3. Use Decoy totem for tough situation. The play style requires some skills. But don't worry. Just give it sometime. After you get use to it and level gems to high level, everything runs smoothly. :D Last edited by loonger#5545 on Oct 5, 2016, 2:03:58 AM	Posted by loonger#5545 on Oct 5, 2016, 2:00:27 AM Quote this Post
