Why do you take the two minion damage/life nodes in the witch area? Does minion life increase the damage of VD?

You must be looking at the wrong tree? :o

lol i was, my fault!

Thanks for the guide it's been very smooth lvling through the campaign should be at maps this evening, haven't had much time to play this league yet. One thing I wanted to double check it looks like the power charge on crit is the only way to generate power charges? Or is there another way and that's only for long sustained boss fights, but power charges are generated somewhere else?

Hey i’ve just started doing your bild and it seems to be fine to play. I’ve got one question- when i choose a poe tree it sends me to an old version. Are there any changes in a new one? nd i see that you pickED up elemental overload In elementalist skill but NOT in inqisitor - WAS THAT ON PURPOS?

Yeah, I'm about to fix that as when I updated the guide the 3.2 tree was unavailable from the poe website :)

Yes, it has been designed that way cause the Inquisitor is a crit version scaling the crit dmg whilst the Elementalist is penetration non-crit based.

Hey,

My pleasure bro!
Oskarm gloves generates Assassin's Mark on hit which gives power charges on kill. You could use Orb of Storms with PCOC or even include it to your Cremation link if you wish for boss fight Power Charge generation :)

yo ghazzy great build.

I just wonder

im currently lvl 82 and i have 4750 hp (kinda low missing some gear) but still decently geared
i imagine i will hit like 5,5-6 tops, Ive decided not to use the chest that gives me 10% increase MoM. im currenly 2k mana and 700es without the grand spectrums and according to your MoM calculator i dont need that much more even if i bump my hp up to 5,5k. so my question is do i really need the 3 grand spectrums or will it just be overcapping my mana and getting wasted?

Playing HC.

What is the defence layer for this kind of build? Just straight MoM and resist is enough for all the content?

Aye it is, I plan on looking into a Trickster version for VD at some point myself. Currently I'm in bed responding to this so can't go through your PoB atm. You basically want 85ish+ % effective crit with charges & crit flask up then as much dmg as possible with enough eHP. I would probably tweak the tree a bit from this one vs a Trickster version.

Cool, I think I'll leave this one to you. I played around with the build a bit more but still can't get into an optimal position. I guess trying to create a build after 1 league into the game isn't that easy.

Hey,

Cheers bro!

Overcapping mana only makes it easier to sustain but doesn't actually benefit you directly tbh.

Hey,

Creating builds is generally very hard as it requires a lot of knowledge of not just the ability you want to use for the build. Though, don't let that scare you away, I'd still say that you should try and see what you end up with then tweak it from there till you end in a comfortable position :)

PoB is a great tool for this!

Hey bud, sorry if this question has been answered already but have you managed to take this for a spin in Uber Elder and if so how did it go?

Hey,

Sorry I have not. Currently focusing on a Skelly build towards Uber Elder, also, I'm in hardcore so it has taken some time!

Hey,

The inquisitor version is not suppose to use Doryani's Catalyst, you'd much rather want a crit spell dmg dagger to get your crit up! This is stated in the guide as the video is showing the Elementalist version that I ran.

The shield is ruining your Assassin's Mark curse which should come from a pair of Oskarm gloves, not the Rampage gloves you're currently wearing. With these things sorted you should be killing most things before they get to you.

Regarding actual defence:
have you doublechecked the MoM calculator so that you have enough unreserved mana compared to your life pool to fully sustain the eHP granted by your current 40% MoM (thanks to CoD)? The guide tells you to pick up the mana nodes behind MoM keystone as it helps you reach the desired unreserved mana number.

Ok thx for answer:)! i know i need oskram but i dont have curency to buying it. I do that first and i buy a dagger :) if i have oskram thit it still sens to uss chernobog's pillas i cant have 2 cur's an enemy so maybe uss lioneye's remorse? or serch for some rar shield with elem/ spell dmg? And in new tree you take mind over matter it will cumulate with armor and take 60% dmg from mana or its only to pick up inspiration? sorry for my anglish:D

Haha, no worries bro!

I'd rather go for a rare one with spell dmg and preferably more crit.
MoM doesn't scale from armour, it's just mitigating through your mana pool :)
