Hey, is this wand something? I think its better to ask, before I buy it for like 80c.

It is strong and will carry you far, only missing attack speed. The high crit rating is very important and helps a bunch.

If you'd want to get a wand better than this you are looking at 7ex + imo. Buy it

80C is a good deal considering the same wand with 12 attack speed would be 4 exalts + initial cost of wand. cold damage is really useful for proccing Herald of ice shatters even if fire has more dps.

@d3sden0va can u post ur items or open profil?

is Piscator enough for comfortable Shaper and Guardians?

Tryed crafting a wand but used a lot of alterations, regals and nothing. Also wands are pretty expensive, ppl putting wands with two T1 prefix for like 5 EX and still u need to scour it and multimod.

Currently at 45 EX and need boots, rings, belt. Im a Raider atm but still i don't know if i should go for Skyforths or stay Raider with Chayula and buy GG rings, belt and ES boots like Philo recommended

Videos looks nice but philo gear allows him to delete content, i don't know how the fight look on that 60~ Ex budget.

Sux that Worst_Luck couldn't post some Shaper and other guradians videos.

Hoping to empower my auras soon, just gotta finish leveling em and hope I get lucky lol.

My rings cost maybe <2ex and I got lucky with the crafts (20 and 15% on first tries. Gonna divine the 15 when I can waste the money)

I haven't tried much of hard content on this char yet, just mapping up to t15. I tried one chimera and got completely destroyed, but that's easily my worst guardian, so could just be that I suck. I'm gonna eventually try the others but I'm close to 50% to 92 so I don't feel like ripping right now.

IMO multimodded wands are overrated, to a point. The difference between a perfect Piscator's and a t2 spell t1 lightning wand multi'd for crit attack speed and WED is only like a 7% DPS gain on my current setup, and that drops to a 5% gain on all 21/empowered auras. I'm actually pretty sure there's a point where piscator's overperforms a multimodded wand, in the same way that hybrid spell damage overtakes flat lightning after a certain point of flat ele from aruas/gear. The real breakpoint in a rare wand is when you get one that doesn't require multimod, as the 3rd suffix of crit multi is completely insane DPS gain. Not to say that multimodded wands are bad, but compared to the other upgrades you can make with 20ex, I'm not sold on dropping that much on a double t1 prefix wand while I have other upgrades to make.

There should never be a point where a perfect piscator's outperforms a T1 light T1 fire multi mod wand or better but I have not only examined 2 or 3 LL setups. The only time would if the target is guardian on an elemental equilibrium or elemental resistance map and the 5% penetration barely manages to push piscatorial to a multi mod wand.

I do not think at any threshold will spell/fire/light lose to spell/hybrid/WED or spell/hybrid/light. Even the co author here with the most amount of added damage from auras possible still has more dps with the first combination. Spell/fire/light produces the most raw damage on the most high scaled low life builds.

If someone can link a profile where this is true I would be more than happy to validate.

T1 fire t1 lite multimodded maybe. The wand I was looking it was spell/lite with crafted WED or lite/wed with crafted spell.

In any case, it's not more than 8% on my current setup, for a very steep investment. I'd like a very good wand for this build eventually, but certainly not 20ex for a temp at best.

More power to you then. Piscator's is a very cost effective item.

What concerns me is why you are not deleting guardians in 2 minutes or less with this much gear investment which I would estimate around 60-80 exalts based on however much that barrage CoE cost you. I can not see your profile but I would rather not ask since I'm sure you have your reasons.

For the record, on a T1 lite T1 fire wand, as I get more and more flat damage from auras etc, the %DPS increase goes lower and curves out, so piscator's never outperforms it, but the better my everything else is, the less of an upgrade it is.

I have only tried 1 guardian once, and died almost instantly on the runup to the boss, as my namelocked barrage either missed on accuracy or missed on aim, and got 2shot. I haven't tried the others but I'm sure they'll be easier. My gear's been posted in here, my tree is the same as salty's ele one. I'm just trying to level for now, I've got other characters to boss when I need to.

e: build cost about 65ex. Traded my first Skyforths (bought for 17ex+a disfavour) for the CoE, then bought another pair (for 25ex+acuities).

I took more ES nodes over Throatseeker/Heartseeker since I needed survivability.

The next upgrades I was thinking would be 2x +4 Enlighten, +4 Empower, and switching to ES gloves to increase survivability.

Any tips on my gear or tree? Do you agree with the next upgrades I was planning on getting? With 2x +4 Enlighten, I will be able to run 7 aura and add Haste.

Any input?

Seems like reasonable upgrades. Were I you, I'd try to get some res on your gloves so you can get some flask mods on your belt (I fuckin love flask mods on belts) or even a hysteria belt (tons of damage).

Tree-wise, unless you sorely need the 10 strength, I'd path through Coldhearted Calculation over the 10 str node into Assassination. I don't like Elemental Focus at all, and I like Crackling Speed much less than heart/throatseeker (crit multi is our 2nd best damage stat after attack speed).

Everything else looks fine. Those rings are dope. Maybe swap your vinktar for penetration.

Ya I need the strength because my gear doesnt have str. I'm thinking of exalting my belt hoping for some flasks​ or WED.

Light pen is better than + light attack for vinkt?

I'm hoping to find a good set of ES gloves with dual res and possibly accuracy even though I'm at 87% hit chance.

I'll look into the tree suggestions, hopefully I can move some nodes around.
