[3.8 BUFFED] Demi's TWO MILLION+ DPS SAFESTLEMON Low Life Righteous Fire/Scorching Ray Guardian

Can someone clear something up for me?

Why take more than 20-25% increased aura effectiveness? Aside from adding a tad more resists / ES via discipline - It doesn't help increase max resists past 20-25% ( 25% for 4% base / 20% for 5% base)

You could save 4-5 points easily by removing one of the clusters... Am I missing something? Do you really need that 4% extra reduced mana? Would it be better to skip the 4% reduced mana nodes and just shoot over to the dex side and grab the charisma skill tree?

So for example, Taking the above skill tree it would look like this:

As an added bonus you get some needed dex along the way & 4% more reduced mana.

Is it just that the extra 4% reduced mana is overkill and the extra node effectiveness means more resists and ES?

The extra aura effectiveness helps the max resists also.so a level 20 purity of fire(5% base max fire resist increase) with let's say 80% aura effectiveness will give 7 or 8% max fire resist.dont know the exact numbers,but it's along those lines

Thanks for the reply Yusukeirinel12. Yea, after playing around with the numbers a bit I realize that it's not a static 20-25%. It's based off your aura's max Resist. Don't know how I missed that earlier...

So Here's the math I sorted out:
Lvl 11 POF @ 2% - 50% gives you 1%
Lvl 17 POF @ 3% - 34% gives you 1%
Lvl 20 POF @ 4% - 25% gives you 1% / 50% gives you 2%
Lvl 23 POF @ 5% - 20% gives you 1% / 40% gives you 2% / 60% gives you 3%

Also the Guardian tree gives you 10% increased aura effectiveness. Which is definatley something to keep in mind when running your calculations.

All the aura effectiveness nodes in the tree are required to give you 60% increased Aura effectiveness. Although you can get rid of all those skill points to path to devotion and use the new unique jewel that gives you 4% increased effectiveness / & 2% reduced mana reserved to hit 60%.

Can you change the PoB past bin to actually reflect 3.0 changes (as that is how this is titled)? By this I mean like changing the Energy From Within, removing the 20% ring enchants, and the Shield enchant from 20% to 5% ect.

Good one, but could do alot more than that both es and damage wise.

Sharing my approach in hopes that it might help someone hitting healthy numbers for ES. This is my 3.0 tree and I am hitting around 22000 ES (down from 24500). I have a slightly different approach to achieve this by using these:

The idea behind this build is to leverage the strength convertion to ES%. Since I get that I can get more out of gear like this to achieve higher values of ES:

I also went for a larger mana pool (by picking mom) this is only since I gained more ES in the end since MoM doesn't do anything else for this build.

My profile is open if you want to check the gear (popadoodle). I hope this help, any ideas on how to push this even higher would be appricated :-).

I started Demi's build a day or two ago, and was also interested in going MoM for the additional ES+RF damage to mana.

Biggest thing I was worried about is the mana regen, though. How is it for you?

Edit-
So apparently MoM doesn't mitigate damage to Energy Shield, so mana regen should be a (mostly) non issue I think. Not totally sure I want to grab it now.

With the nerf to Leo's DoT reduction (5% now), is RF still sustainable with a rare shield? Or am I better off just using Rise of the Phoenix?

Hey, I have a doubt, how leveling the char? It's using Sorching ray?
