This cast on damage taken ... is BADASS!

Who would say that suck "useless" and "controversial"(who is lazy to push one button??)skill/gem will become so incredibly useful introducing all those fabulous options in game.

I've been using it on my phys. melee cleaver in standard setup m.shell-end. cry-decoy totem and results are staggering, my char is maybe even 100% tougher now then it was before. Really, no exaggeration.

What i want to ask you is combination for my discharger which has RRBB helm and I'm afraid thats best combo I can get. 3R or even 4R would be ideal but my our ES helm thinks otherwise. Because I can think of many useful red gems from l.leech to totems, blue? Not sure.

so RRBB helm, M.shell and cast on damage taken are pretty much set in stone. What to put in 2 more blue sockets?

For now I'm experimenting with cold snap, it's ... promising but not spectacular. What else comes to your mind? Ice nove perhaps??

Maybe Ice nove + Life leech + whatever increases its damage ;)

Level 1 Cast when Damage Taken triggers at 440 damage.


Using Arc Chain and Life Gain on Hit heals you 220 damage.


...Actually...how about...

-Cast When Damage Taken
-Life Gain on Hit
-Firestorm(Or increased AoE if firestorm casts on top of you)
-Frost Nova

Life gain on hit doesn't work with spells AFAIK...

...

That 440 damage figure got me curious.
Looking at Death Oath, the 450 Chaos damage and some self healing ability attached to Cast on Damage Taken.
Not quite sure how and what gem(s) to link there.
If you're leaving PoE, chances are I'll rezz you as my minion! MWHAHAHAH
Does this gem come from a quest or is it a random drop only? I really really want one

My god... i can't belive i didn't think of this.

For all you melee guys, id try adding Smoke Mine (if you didn't take unwavering stance) to the combination, it should provide more survival but less procs.

Edit:

Every class gets it at merciless library quest afaik.
However... so are the gems Multistrike and Chain present at that quest reward, at least according to Wiki so...

Death oath is a 450 point degen, and would not count.
A scion may be born of the rich, and as such hold more opportunity...
but a scion will never be able to appreciate the finer beauty of those less fortunate.
Hmm but it clearly says "Dealst 450 damage", the wording should be changed in that case.
