[1.2.4] 11 Aura Low Life Support Culler - Steroids Edition Revamp

Hi,


What is your DPS on incinerate? Im lvl 72 and have 11.9, so the gems like faster casting are useless-maybe item quantity instead of one DPS support gem?

Also, what do you think about take the highest (pain attunement etc.) spell dmg points at higher lvls ?(Auras are spells now)

For Standard league, you can replace whatever you want with item quantity. I play in domination so it's not included in the guide.

As far as I know auras are not affected by Pain Attunement.. is anyone able to confirm/deny this? If you could boost auras for everyone by 30% it would be 2 points well spent!

I'll definatelly try to go with 6L Reapers Pursuit. Might be be 1 less aura, but it's about 40 IIR more and its cheaper for me than unique shield and dagger.... :/ Who knows, I might get lukcy culling... hehe.....

Rav239, dont see whats ur dps, see how many casts there are per sec.... o,2 is like 5 casts per sec, I'm at 0,12 so its like 8-9 casts per sec. The more u do the more chances you have to cull something faster. Also PLS mentions that if you play on standard and can place IIQ gem, you can remove 1 of the dps supports.



You need that Faster casting speed..... And if you can, get a quality incinerate and leave it low lvl for more projectile speed (bigger range).... And also a Quality BloodMAgic Gem gives attack + cast speed when you are on low life. So since the build is based on low life + allways uses BM gem, its 100% win to get a quality BM gem. :D

Thanks for the fast answers. Came to think of another question... Which gem would you sacrifice from incinerate, using a 5L instead of a 6L? GMP, faster casting or faster projectiles?

I run Haste for two reasons, one becaus Grace is pretty common aura to be ran by duelists/rangers/ other people who run IR, where as haste is less common. Two because it's a huge dps boost for the group, and my party members don't die very often as is with the utility I bring.

I only have a few QL20 aura gems, because your right, quality on auras is horrible.. like, reallllly bad. I hope in the future GG improves the quality bonuses for auras, till then many of mine will sit at 0/20.

First of all: the EK version of this build was so-so, but the Incinerate version is really magic. I cant solo anymore, but that is what other toons are for. And the partying is amazing.

I currently run Grace instead of Anger. Yeah, it cuts down significantly on DPS, but it does wonders for my own defense (especially when you include the Shadow ES cluster). Additionally, when you add too much damage to a group, they start overriding your culls too often.

Other small improvements:
- I am looking greedily at the 4% movement speed node to the left of the ES Shadow cluster. In my experience, movement is life and 4% movement is better than 6% ES.
- On the same note, I have swapped my curse with a Whirling Blades (Heartbreaker is a dagger) to get me out of these tight spots when multiple mobs converge on me (maybe when my Lightning Warp has quality it will also be fast enough).
- In your level 100 build you can swap out a 6% ES node for the +30 Int node between Zealot's Oath and Elemental Adaptation, which also gives you 6% ES but 15 mana as well. (or take both, the flask nodes and the movement speed node and forget about double cursing)

Thanks for answers, about that auras i was thought it can increase damage of wrath and anger, but i tried and nothing. Pain attunement gives 30% of spell damage, and auras have "spell" property
"aura, SPELL, aoe"
but it dont work. Sorry :p

I tried now q20 lvl1 incinerate without faster casting, if some1 other in my party have culling and very big DPS it can be problematic, but usually im still killing (0.18 cast time with haste).

GL&HF, very nice build , great MF :)

Yea if pain attunement worked with auras.. would be insanely OP.. andddd I would not complain one bit :P Glad your having fun take it easy.

In your passive tree you dont take "Resolute Technique". It's only 1 node away. Doesnt it make more sure that you will be able to Cull 100% with totems?
RT does work on totems, right? -.-
And you dont need critical chance anyway in this build. :)
P.S.

Spoiler

HAppy new year! :D

spell never miss

Doesn't the Cast peed from QBM only apply to the skills linked to it?
So it would only work if you link a BM gem to your Incinerate?
Which you don't want to do as you dont have enough room:
- Incinerate+Spell Totem are mandatory
- GMP is 99% mandatory
- IIR and (on Standard) IIQ are 98% mandatory
- Faster Casting would provide more cast speed than QBM
- Faster Projectiles provides increased range (more important than a bit of extra casting speed)


Another tip is to buy the Blue Incinerate Flames Microtransaction. This makes your Incinerates much easier to see. Though (speaking from experience), you really should turn this off on the Cells map.
