I think GGG will refund you on mtx within a time frame. The celestial chain is really faint, you don't notice it but it's just a barely noticeable celestial ground effect with no ring that still propagates like the contagion effect.

If you buy a ED mtx, like project ED, it shows a small green effect on the mob as it dies.

Wow! Great customer service, I asked and 15m later they responded. Appreciate the tip.

So what makes the purple rings is that the mobs dying from ED? If that's the case, I wonder why the celestial contagion mtx makes the purple rings vanish.

Yeah, the rings is the contagion spreading to all the mobs after the initial ED kills the first mob. Personally I think the celestial one is nice, I prefer the subtle effect.

Has anyone tried the arcane pack or arcane ED + Contagion? How are the rings on that?

Arcane contagion is just like the purple default contagion, except it's blue.

Can anyone tell me some ways I can transition better to clearing all content? I feel like my single target is lacking, and survivability at times I get chunked. I have 4ex for upgrades and just got into low red maps.

You're still playing with 5 link cane. Grab a 3b-2g-1r crafted bow like https://www.pathofexile.com/trade/search/Heist/lyKJadnSV and slot the ED setup to it and get an empower support gem for the red slot. It'll boost your damage up so much (the ED gem level will skyrocket compared to your current setup) for clear that none of the red maps is going to give you any issues.

If that's too much of an investment (closer to 6ex), consider 6 linked cane for now.

I don't get this instruction:

"As soon as you aquire spreading rot, socket it near pain attenument to let your blight apply wither."

Looking through the various trees at no point ever is there enough Intelligence assigned in the zone around the gem slots to activate the wither function of Spreading Rot (needing 40 int nearby), in the suggested slot only 20 int are assigned.
Am I missing something?

Build went smooth as butter once I got my bow finished. Easily cleared A8 sirius deathless. No issues. Its not fast at bossing and you actually have to do mechanics but the clear way makes up for it. Dont think Ill do any more upgrades to the build as I am ready to reroll but easily farmed over 30ex in 2 weeks in addition to this gear.

People who are struggling learn boss mechanics. you can just hit the boss with ed once every 10 seconds and then run around if you cant find a window for blight.

Also for 2 sockets and 17 mana reserved you can get anomouls vitality + enhance for a free 48% increased damage. I had to pick up a mana res node but if I had enlighten 4 it would have been free. Thanks again for the guide

Really enjoying this build but I still have trouble with A8 Sirus. Not sure what I'm doing wrong (maybe it's just player error). Any tips would be appreciated.

I think your build is good enough to kill Sirus, you just need some practice on how to avoid most of the damage during the fight. Since I play this build I never lose any fight against him


Oh shiet, I just kill him deathless and he drops...

It doesn't require the int to be assigned. The wording on the jewel is "with at least 40 int in radius", and it means quite literally anything on the tree. On that slot there is more than 40 int available even if not allocated.
