Small question, why Elemental Weakness and not Flammability ?

A Q&A Section would be very useful if someone has time to do it I think !


if im venturing a guess, i would say because flammability only pertains to fire damage while elemental weakness deals with all elemental types, and since we use shock and chill as well + hypothermia is some builds, would make sense


Three reasons:
1. Wave of Conviction does Fire & Lightning Damage.

2. Elemental Weakness has a greater total -% to resistance than Flammability when at max quality.

3. If you are in a party Elemental Weakness is better, as the other players most likely don't do exclusively Fire Damage.

Guys, I have inspiration with frenzy, is it worth use another inspiration in chest instead of hypothermia?


You need either 0 Inspiration gems, or 2. It needs to be on Frenzy / Barrage to gain the charges, and it needs to be in the VD / DD links to apply it's bonus damage to VD / DD.

If it's only in your Frenzy set up, you are not gaining the "7% more elemental damage per Inspiration Charge" on your main skill.
So I've been playing regular minion builds lately and Darkness enthroned with the "Minions deal % increased damage if you've used a minion skill recently" is super strong there.

With spiritual aid does that work with this build? With two 15% gems that's a 52% increased damage mod added on which seems significant.
It seems like it would work on a self-cast Bone Offering.

But not when it fires from "Trigger a Socketed Spell when use a Skill".

Because you are not "using the Bone Offering Skill". It is being "triggered".

So, im interested to know if anyone is using unique variations of gem setups that they found has worked for them vs what the original build calls for.

after talking with someone here on the forums, ive started using vaal DD and vaal righteous fire, and crap just melts when im able to unload both at the same time (especially on bosses)

so, who else is using funky gem combos that turned out to be killer?

How do you properly use vaal DD in this case? just manually cast it when it's up?
Yes. It is in your Spellslinger 6L.

You manually fire VDD for bosses.

I was using Vaal RF for a bit, it worked well for speeding up clear / boss kills.

yep. i have vaal DD slotted in instead of regular DD in my 6L, and just fire it off when its ready/hold it for when i need it
What medium cluster jewel do you use?
I also see an update on the yellow jewel to have imune to the bleed thing, but i don't see that on path of building .
