[2.5]Life based Elemental Inquisitor, Blade Flurry

That's a big help - appreciated. You wouldn't search for "adds elemental damage to attacks" with it too?

no, since it doesn't affect mainhand (the "adds x-x element" on weapons is local, not global; if the wording is "adds x-x element to attacks" its global, for example hand of wisdom and action).

ahoie matey... i'm playing this build of yours at breeeeech league and just finished cruel and all i can say is, so far so good.
cruel itzaro, malachai, etc. melts like butter



idk if this one was asked already, but my question is, does a glove w/ Curse Elem Weakness On Hit boosts the overall DPS?

*an example of my item on standard

depends. when u have over 90% crit chance, then elemental curses and penetration gems won't do anything, since on crit you ignore the resistances. Best curse for this build would be assassin's mark, 2nd best would be a defensive one, for example enfeeble or temporal chains.

It's actually global. I'm using it. The damage and scaling is ridicolous.

That's what I'm saying.

i saw you're using belly... is carcass an "okay" option or just depends on how you play the build?

follow up question... if i already save enough currencies, what should i buy first, Doryani's Catalyst or 5L chest armour (carcass/belly)?

Carcass jack is very squishy, you need extra life nodes, otherwise if you aren't careful you get oneshot. I would recommend a belly.

To the next question: i would buy the one what's cheaper for you, in the end you want to have both, so the order doesn't really matter.
