Wow, really well done!

I'm skippimg this league, just spending some time in standard when i have free time.

I'm feeling a little bit tankier with Elemntalist, but I'm wondering....is it possible to set up gems links like the Inquisitor build ( so skipping the curse link with Hextouch and Flammability)?

In terms of the curse, yes. If you are running just a single curse, you can replace the hextouch and flammability gems with a ring like this (I added this yesterday to my 3.18 build). Get what ever mods best fit your build. I need the max fire res to help me support righteous fire but if you don't use that get a better mod.



This gives you curse on hit which allows you to use the freed up sockets for something else. I personally love frenzy charges so I use the two open sockets for CWDT-Cold Snap (low level so that it procs constantly)

How could you afford those nice items already?
Being new here I admit I dont know any tricks but I have like 3 ex combined in the 2-3 weeks we have played in Sentinel league and I see items selling for like 50 ex already.

Alos: Is point Blank worth having on a Lord skin? (and how come none of the projective support gems have made it as incinirate support?)

hello!

* I just press the Sentinel button 3 times every map and the currency adds up. The only expensive item I have is the shield and that took a long while to get.

* Hover your mouse over the Incinerate skill gem. You will see the following key words at the top. "Spell, Fire, Channeling, AOE"

The key words indicate what the skill will benefit from in terms of support and scaling. You will see the key word "projectile" is not listed with Incinerate since it does not produce any projectiles as part of the skill.

As such, Point Blank, nor any projectile support gems, will work with Incinerate.

Ok, sry, they youtube vidios I was learning from musta been too old, my bad :)

EDIT: Btw: Is the best to just hold down incident, or should I release it after it hits stage 8 for the waves?

back in the day incinerate used have proj, could shotgun with it and it was glorious, shaper, elder, eater searing all down with this build, once you get the pieces in place build is very nice, however lining everything up is a real pita.

It takes a little practice but you will start to get a feel for it. In the beginning it is best to hold it down until you see about 80% of the health gone and then you can release and it will act almost as a culling strike bursting the rest of the health down.

Just keep practicing, it will become second nature.

Also, make sure you get the full use out of Infernal Cry. If you time things well, you can infernal cry in the middle of pack and then the moment you start incinerating, you can blow up the entire pack.

Check out my ele resists! Probably more work than it was worth but for the first time I think ever, I finally get full defensive use of the Wise Oak.

how to increase damage? Please tell me

1) Get a higher level Empower (even just a level 3 will give you a large boost but your goal is level 4 Empower)

2) Upgrade your Skin of the Loyal to a Skin of the Lords (note that you will need all corrupted gems to use Skin of the Lords). That will give you another large DPS boost

3) Get the helmet enchantment for Incinerate: +2 to Maximum stages. This will give you a very large DPS boost.

4) Your resistances are incorrect when using Wise Oak. You need to have your uncapped Fire res as the highest but right now your lightning is your highest, making the Wise Oak flask useless. When you fix this, you will get a large DPS boost when using the flask.

5) After you fix your fire res in step 3, upgrade your Wise Oak to get the best roll possible for the offensive side (they are dirt cheap). This will give you a small DPS boost

6) Your curse set up is incorrect. You want the following: Reckoning - Flammability - Hextouch This will get you a medium size DPS boost.

7) You appear to be following some very old gem set ups. We no longer use the Blade Blast set up as it does not provide anything to our build any more. Make sure you look at the POB's at the very top of the thread, those are the most up to date. The detailed text below them is very old now and some of it is out dated and not relevant to the build any more.

8) This one is not DPS related but you have a small mistake in your tree that is effecting your block. In the wheel that has Sanctuary, remove the node that is giving you Spell Block, and change it to the other side that gives Attack block. This will allow both Spell and Attack block to be maximized.

9) Cast Speed is very important to the build. Upgrade your weapon to get the best cast speed and spell damage you can afford. These are very cheap with even excellent rolls. This will get you a medium size DPS boost


When you get a chance to work on these items, come back again and I will take a deeper look for you.

Thanks for the detailed answer. I did everything as you said.
I don't understand why the block chance is 50% (76%)?
