EA 3.9 Ignite -- Cap Your Damage

Been looking for a zoomy build that can kill bosses, does this build also work with HH,shackles, and solstice for max HH effect or is that giving up too much dmg?

HH will accelerate APS which will scale damage, but auras will fuck EE and ruin dps. Poison BV might be where you wanna go with that with explody chest and prolif.

Default Setup:

6 totem

2.27s

12,891 dps
923 dps totem

6.18 aps
3.24 aps totem

7 arrows
13 arrows totem

(12,891 * 6.18 * 7 * 2.27 + 923 * 3.24 * 13 * 6 * 2.27) * (6.18 * 2.27 * 7 + 3.24 * 13 * 6 * 2.27) * 0.03

(1,265,898 + 529,501) * (98 + 573) * 0.03

20.13 * 1,795,399 = 36,141,381

With 45% dura, 2.27 -> 2.73.

(1,522,424 + 636,801) * (118 + 689) * 0.03

24.21 * 2,159,225 = 52,274,845

52,274,845 / 36,141,381 = 1.446 times more damage for 45% duration. 1% more per duration.


With a good rare quiver instead of Skirmish: (Rage Stinger used)

5 totem

2.27s dura

16,074 dps
1,164 dps totem

3.51 aps totem
6.69 aps

6 arrows
12 arrows totem

(16,074 * 6.69 * 6 * 2.27 + 1,164 * 3.51 * 12 * 5 * 2.27) * (6.69 * 6 * 2.27 + 3.51 * 12 * 5 * 2.27) * 0.03

(1,464,627 + 556,464) * (91 + 478) * 0.03

17.07 * 2,021,091 = 34,500,023


Rare quiver with duration estimation: 50 million.

Here are some interesting calcs that show how important duration is and things such as rare quivers vs skirmish.



And this should also show just how much of a pain in the ass it is to calculate damage for this skill...

What is this calculation for if may I ask? Ignite only takes into account the biggest hit right? totem dmg shouldn't matter. I was gonna ask why you lvled the explosive arrow gem in your boots because of that.

Nope, EA fuses ignore this rule because the explosion is a singular hit which is the sum of all fuses. This is part of how the skill works.



Second sentence decides this.

I guess the boss rotation is something like

Precast Totems
wait till boss is active
focus
EA till explosion

right?

If so, how do you make sure, that it is one of your fuses that explodes first and not one of your totems?

It doesn't matter which fuse explodes first. All the damage from all the fuses is summed and multiplied by the number of fuses * 3% more per fuse.

The rest of your order is correct, but also flask for Dying Sun projectiles as soon as boss becomes active.

Thank you! I guess I should just read the skill gem description ;).

What is 5l EA setup for single and clear? I can't afford 6l right now.

Elemental Damage With Attacks is the cut according to POB, but I haven't tested with less than a 6L myself, so I can't speak to how the build will go.
