[2.5] CI Witch Scorching Ray CWC Whispering Ice - Version 2.0 Released - Now with more damage!
|
I must be doing something wrong then. i run life leech gem but it's just so slow to fill up the globe.. it's due to missing vaal pact? i mean as far as i know one can only leech 20% at a time, so how does vaal pact help if either way i'm only getting 20% leech? i'm very confused.

" Rather than restoring an amount of health over time, Vaal Pact makes the leech instant. http://pathofexile.gamepedia.com/Vaal_Pact This will regain your life much faster. |

" Vaal pact helps a lot, but so does having a lot of ES, dmg is your last priority, I'd say. or if your gear isn't quite good dmg can be a problem. be sure to have some int on gear and to put brute force jewel in the socket near strength nodes on the tree. EDIT: you'll have to invest if you wanna kill all end game bosses. As it was said before, this build is budget 'cause required uniques are cheap, but as every other build it needs to have some investment end game. we are talking 77+ lvl.

Hello there,
First of all, thanks Mathoddie for your detailled guide, very well made, and really nice to see that you're still trying to help everyone around coming on the thread :) Thanks also to falagar112 to pointing out interesting suggestion ! My elementalist is my 2nd char this league, and my first real CI character (always prefered life char) that is aiming seriously for end game content. I must say that I'm loving especially having a big ES pool with huge leech, in order to facetank everything I can ... I decided to focus on ES on my items, so that was kind of hard (and expensive) to get where I am at the moment (13k ES). I had to sacrifice my old helmet with the 150% fire golem enchant, to get a nice upgrade, so now I will have to manually enchant it from the lab, and I'm almost sure it will be long and painfull ... I had only 1 concern with the build, my 2nd curse seemed useless as it was almost never up (the curse on hit one, as I was not hit very often). So my flammability debuff was never really there and I was thinking it was a lot of missing damage because of that. But that was BEFORE the 2.0 version ! :D With orb of storms I'm now sure that I have my curse when I want it. Also the swap from shapper of desolation to mastermind of discord seems more consistent and beneficial. At the end I'm still waiting a few more levels (to get Celestial Judgement) before facing the real content : Uber Atziri, Guardians and my final goal ... Shapper :) My gear that is probably going to be hard to upgrade now ... Good luck fellow Whisperers ! :) Last edited by Alio#2925 on Dec 22, 2016, 7:57:31 PM

" What's your dps with only golems up on your hideout? Mine is 5.4k - 6k (pendulum of destruction). And I managed to take down t15 collesium Daresso while I was level 80. But I feel like my DPS is low and still can improve even though I don't know how. Last edited by Archybild#0971 on Dec 23, 2016, 3:44:49 AM

Hey uh...I haven't visited this thread in like a week, but...I can't seem to find what's changed since 2.0? Like I'm scanning through the front page and I don't see any mention of any changes. I have a guy that followed this build and he's level 85 now, but that was before 2.0
I wanna know what changed for 2.0 and how to adapt. Thanks Edit: some additional questions...do we know for sure now whether or not shaper of desolation vs. mastermind of discord is a settled thing? or is it still preference? We use 1 flame and 1 ice golem, correct? What about the flame golem helm enchant? What if we have a level 3 enlighten? Could we do something funny like blasphemy-flammability-tempchains-discipline-enlighten in our 5l chest? Would we still be able to then run arctic armor?

" Here are the 2.0 update: " Flame golem helm enchant is still BiS, as written in the enchant section, and yes we are running 1 flame and 1 ice golem. Running 2x blasphemy and disc with a level 3 enlighten gives us 96 % mana reserve (we currently have 95%) running AA in this would be impossible (+ would remove out current chest setup, where we can get an extra curse with a 6 link and +1 curse amulet). Edit: Added an update section to the guide. Anyway, I am off to another christmas dinner, and I wont be back untill the 25th, I will respond to everyone with questions soon enough. Thanks for your patience! Last edited by Mathoddie#7620 on Dec 23, 2016, 8:00:28 AM

I don't really get how the chest links work. Cast when Damage Taken + Ball lightning + Curse on Hit + Flammability(SC) + Orb of Storms on 5 link. So when you take damage does it cast both ball and orb? Do both ball and orb curse on hit?
