This is what I use atm, took me all the way to 3k corr, and if I tried to push further I'm pretty sure it could go to 4 maybe even 5k
Take note for the recasts to be sustainable on FC you need at least T6 spellslinger, ideally t7 but T6 is enough

I’m doing a meteor build and have a 2lp Cinder Song. I’m going to try &slam cast speed but is it more important crit chance or crit multi?
obtuse pine
So is this the better variant ?
unborn hamlet
So is this the better variant ?
This is a slightly modified FC frostbite build, you use frostclaw as your main dps spell, and use it to proc elemental nova as well, U have flame ward as a panic button tho I don't really need it, usually have 30k+ ward doing monos up to 60k on boss fights, it's based on freezerate , not crit stuff
Flame rush to move around, you can also use teleport but I find flame rush better, tho that's just a preference

Try the mana strike spark charge if you like melee runemaster
pine prairie
Melee...runemaster?
twin adder
It's in the tier list for speed farming on maxroll
pine prairie
I mean I guess there's no reason why not.
It's just my first time hearing of it lol.
twin adder
Yes. Mana strike is a melee skill, and there's a node that makes it ranged. It's pretty fun.
pine prairie
That's not really melee then. 😛
twin adder
Paired with high attack speed and proccing stuff It's pretty fun
pine prairie
I have heard of using ranged mana strike for procs though.
pine prairie
Because it doesn't actually get the ranged tag, it still procs things that happen on melee hit.
twin adder
Yes that's what makes it fun
With dragorath dagger, it can proc frost claw and lightning blast
pine prairie
I've heard of people using it to spam meteors.
twin adder
And then you can use passives that give ward per hit and with high melee atack speed, ward stacks pretty well
pine prairie
You need some help with mana though, like frost claw or something.
next lance
Ill give it a try my next character around. My spellblade is my first toon so i wanna see if i can push past 500 corruption before i roll my next one. Im still stuck at 32 just because lack of time and how long it takes lol.
twin adder
I breeze through 300ish corruption with it
pine prairie
Mana strike provides mana in hit
Much less if you make it ranged though.
twin adder
Speed of finishing echos is much slower if not ranged tho
Plus you want to keep frost claw at a cost of 15 or more to keep the branding damage passive bonus active
I've done the meta frost claw builds, and even made a nova build with it being skill level 32 and it was lackluster which was disappointing. This melee spark charge build has been my favorite build, even more fun than the broken detonating arrow marksman with 2x jelkors, and the healing hands divine bolt pally
pine prairie
I had fun with spark spellblade.
Just at melee range.
Is a real mana guzzler though. XD
Constantly casting chaining lightning blasts does that.
Until I got a good sceptre I was bopping stuff on the head with a wand which was silly.
twin adder
That's the build but it was a starting point for me. It's not as optimized as it could be, but it's a good place to start.
pine prairie
I like going for feel so I tend to just build whatever feels right.
twin adder
But you really want as high crit as possible to maximize the frost claw and lightning blast procs
I find most of the LE builds on maxroll are good to start but not optimized or fleshed out the most
So use it as a skeleton and change what feels the best
pine prairie
I mean I don't even like maxroll guides to begin with. In my own very humble opinion.
Like if I do need a build idea I'd hit up a reddit thread or something.
twin adder
Yea- use it as light suggestions more than strict reqs
pine prairie
It's not even because I don't think maxroll guides are good.
It's just that I'd rather get input from what I perceive as real people.
twin adder
My mana strike build isn't there strictly speaking, and neither is the dagger detonating arrow or healing hands divine bolts build
I found them on youtube and reddit

opal mountain
With dragorath dagger, it can proc frost claw and lightning blast
Its a really fun build but defensively it gets exposed if you're trying to push.
twin adder
I meant a build of just elemental nova. With crest of unity, unstable core, TH, etc. But also, the frost claw with nova build with both crest of unity and peak of mountain/prismatic gaze variants, it was still just, not fun for me.
The randomness of the extra frost claw casts was mostly the culprit of the unfun factor. Also, the speed of the frost claw projectiles felt slow. And the ward generation wasn't as consistent as my healing hands or mana strike builds.
At the end of the day, the combat needs to feel beefy, solid, and with concrete feeling feedback to keep me engaged

Well that's the thing. Min maxing takes hundreds, perhaps thousands of hours to reach the higher end. I shouldn't have to farm for 3 months to ha e a build finally feel good. That's poor design. The RNG for getting the best setups is way too high.
Like I can farm for 3 months for a particular rolled item, only for me to go back to square one and farm another 3 months because the legendary craft failed. It's demoralizing.
It's the epitome of the joke where you go "ok, now I can finally play the game" after you farm a thousand hours for a +4 frost claw relic

Yea I get it. The rarest stuff shouldn't just drop freely constantly. But a build shouldn't feel, mechanically, 100% more fun because of one specific item roll. That means you have to 'endure' less than ideal fun levels, for hundreds or thousands of hours, to have a chance at getting an item rolled a certain way.
Like for example, a frost claw build feels completely different if you don't have a +3 or +4 frost claw twisted heart. Just having a 0lp twisted heart is something 99% of players won't experience.

Thats really only luck, if you got that unlucky i feel you since I can’t get a decent drop or slam for any other build lol

Yeah at the end of the day that's how most ARPGs function- luck.

At low corruption honestly anything works, I’m happy with that
Almost everything
But you can have fun with that
Hopefully they start to fix the drop rates next cycle
Tbh the most underwhelming thing for me are prophecies
Completely worthless besides the 2 red rings i got from them
twin adder
I'd like legendary crafting to take on some aspects of crafting affixes from division 2.

Like that feeling you get when you get a really rare drop in an ARPG is unparalleled from most games. Then for that feeling to deflate almost completely because your craft failed, just, sucks.

No its perfect. If you put your time in you get rewarded. That's the whole point.

Missing a slam after another is demoralising and frustrating, the devs are aware of that and really want to improve it, so he is not entirely wrong

You are using a lot of low level uniques.
Like someone tell me is it normal to still be using Avarice at level 77?
Like I don't mean to be mean. I'm actually making sure I'm not in the wrong here.
Like Avarice will definitely last you for a bit if you capitalize on it but you will inevitably notice those affix slots you're missing out on.
Same with other uniques.
next lance
yea, i know it's urking me something ferice but every glove i've been getting has been crap and i've been getting really unlucky with forgeing
so its been better then anything new i've gotten so far
pine prairie
I think you are either undervaluing what you get or using too strict of a filter.
I'm not even sure what it means to get unlucky with forging.
Like sure, I brick items a lot, that's the name of the game, but I always manage to craft some good items as well.
next lance
like using a blue glyph and still using most or all of my FP in one shot lol
last 30 in a row i get 1 or 2 crafts even with hope glyphs lol

I mean even if you run out of FP why throw away a perfectly decent item?
Your skill trees I don't have much to say about.

I really feel like a bad guy for saying this, but I doubt that's the only glove you ever dropped in 77 levels.

As for getting eaten a lot, well I suppose. None of those uniques have int on them.

and maybe not but none of the ones i've been eyeballing looked great. all fire skills or worthless otherwise. then again i'm not running a filter and may have missed them?

I mean running a good filter would help a metric poop ton.
Doesn't have to be anything fancy. Just pick like 30 affixes or so that benefit you and hide everything that doesn't have at least 3 of those with a combined tier of 8 or so.

i've tried that a few times and it doesn't seem to help. keep seeing the hide ones pop up anyway?
unborn hamlet
the thing about drops and slams being RNG is not really the main issue , with MG you just solve this problem with enough gold, the issue with MG is that it was ruined by RMT and gold duping
the problem with CoF is simply that you have no support from perks for boss specific drops
and some of the perks are completly useless
mainly rank 9

What's a good ratio for defense vs offense? Does 50/50 work?
full bluff
The strongest build have the same scaling stats for defense and offense, like cast speed and intelligence. Both give offense and defense.
Or for frostbite builds, freeze rate gives more damage, more ward and more crowd control
Weaker builds often have seperate stats for def and off. Making it harder to get really strong 🙂

thats correct

I did mention in my video that low life was likely a viable option for this build
I just don't have the setup ready to go
Last steps not trivial to get for CoF
I need to stack some life also
With how much ward ret we have I think 30k+ ward stable in echos is possible

I was hoping to acquire the knowledge as to how Ignite chance, granted to thine’s fire skills and fire skills alone, affects Disintegrate’s node in the far east region of its node constellation, known as “Dragon Tongue”. I was pondering on whether I should invest one of my precious “skill” “points” into this node, prior to spending “passive” “points” into passives that grant such a stat, “Ignite Chance” for “Fire Skills”. I do hope this letter finds you swell.

No. Ailment effect is not converted, just chance to apply.
and that's specifically from the gloves, the half conversion in fireball's spec doesn't affect your ailments
vapid lion
So it was still apply lowering fire resistance even though its shock damage now?
Feels kinda wrong tbh
nimble shoal
Yeah, if you spec into that node anyway
vapid lion
Would have been nice to lower shock resistance with that node
I mean you can spec into shock pen anyway it seems
With fire ball
But making my other shock skills do more damage would be nice
I wonder what would do more damage fireball with lighting or static orb.
With the build I’m thinking
nimble shoal
But making my other shock skills do more damage would be nice
Shock on its own reduces enemy lightning resistance, so any shocks you apply do that anyway
forest summit
What’s the maximum level I can make my fireball? Does it go up to 100?
nimble shoal
What’s the maximum level I can make my fireball? Does it go up to 100?
Skills naturally level to 20 and can only be raised beyond that by items. There's no hard cap on the max level, but there's a functional limit just based on what items are available to add points to that particular skill. It's pretty easy to raise the level to 22-24 or so if you need to.
forest summit
oh, so five total skills makes it 100
nimble shoal
Some skills like ele nova have a lot of stuff to give them level and can go over 30
forest summit
and the max player level is 100?

Right

when the helmet turns all elemental novas into tri elemental novas no matter what does that mean i can go down multiple trees and it triggers all of them?
nimble shoal
Yeah, most of the stuff in each tree works regardless of the specific nova you cast, all except like 1 node I think
vapid lion
really
it didnt seem like it
if it was a shock one it didnt feel like freeze cascade triggered
and it says all elemental novas have an equal chance to be cast when enabled
nimble shoal
The cascade should work fine, it'll still be a cold cascade though
vapid lion
thats fine it just visually didnt make sense
does the main damage change or is it then frost and shock? or just the main source of damage has a chance to changwe
nimble shoal
The tri-ele nova's base damage is all three elements, equally split
the cold cascade is just cold
vapid lion
i meant without that thingy sorry
nimble shoal
Oh, yeah whichever nova is cast is the type of damage that nova deals
nimble shoal

@woven lark oh it's you. Glad to meet you! At least I know this excellent wand from you.
I figured out which build should I use after listened your opinions and it's inspiring although...lightning sorcerer don't need crazy mana to support crazy damage
sharp monolith
You can also check LE Tools, it has all the invocation and the scaling tags
Yeah but the scaling tag of Hydra (for example) says "spell", "fire"... yet I've been told neither my fire damage nor my cast speed influence Hydra's damage so what does ? Hence the confusion on my part.
nimble shoal
Your damage modiers apply to it just like normal. Cast speed doesn't affect damage, it lets you cast the hydra faster. Doesn't make the thing shoot faster, though.
solemn viper
^ that, cast speed affect YOUR cast, not the speed of hydra missiles, there is a relic for that
nimble shoal
And just to be clear, the hydrahedron uses all your stats; it's not a minion or anything. Cast speed just inherently only affects the speed for you to create the spell effect, not the rate that the spell does anything it does.
sharp monolith
OK thank you everyone for the explanations

Can I post my build here tomorrow and ask for help with my passives? I'm struggling with early empowered monos even at corruption 100. My build is off-meta (sorcerer disintegrate) but I feel like it should be able to work, but I just don't have the stats. I think my passives are where the problem lies, and I redid them recently and it helped a bunch, but it's still tough going. If someone else could take a look that would super duper help. (If that's okay, please @ me).

Sigh. This is my first ever build and I was super proud of it lol. I thought I could make it work.
barren pawn
are you atleast using ingvars and gamblers?
astral moss
I don't want to copy-paste other people's stuff either - I was hoping for some advice but not to just take someone else's build completely and follow it. What's a skill I can use?
astral moss
are you atleast using ingvars and gamblers?
I'm sorry for being very stupid but I do not know what these are.
looks them up If they are items, I am Circle of Fortune and don't think I have seen them.
I'm lightning-based, so former won't help me. Haven't seen it anyway.
I do not think I have seen the Gambler's Fallacy either.
So is the advice to just quit the build completely, then? I'll accept a suitable alternate skill for Sorcerer if you have one and it's really not possible to get it up to 300 corruption in any reasonable fashion. Preferably one that works with lightning damage primarily, so I don't have to throw out every damn piece of gear I have. (Lightning Blast?)
barren pawn
I'm lightning-based, so former won't help me. Haven't seen it anyway.
You dont seem to grasp what the reason we use ingvars with gamblers is
Ingvars converts spell crit to damage for disintegrate
using gamblers, this can get to ridiculous multipliers
i have like a 20x multi worth of spell crit
and thats multiplicative WITH other multis
Gamblers can be farmed from one of the dungeons, i forget which
soulfire
and ingvars i dont really remember. I bought mine in cof.
You really need to use the MG to properly gear disintegrate
astral moss
I'd sooner just not use the build than use MG. Having to put items on the market sounds awful to me. I want to filter out 99% of stuff and only see good items, not have to sift through everything to find decent things and then price them against whatever.
Do you have other skill suggestions then?

I dont hav eother skill suggestions, no. I dont play sorc so i cant really comment on sorc builds

In that case I might just be done for the cycle then.
See you in July I suppose. I'll be making a Paladin then, though I haven't decided what the build will be. I want to play it by ear once more - hopefully without screwing myself over this time. The main lesson I've learned is to stay far away from channeled skills, since they apparently are god awful since mobility is so important.

No point. Still don't want to use MG.
What's weird is that people told me you have huge freedom to make your characters how you want without getting screwed over, but apparently there are still some very strong archetypes around which you can't be flexible - ex, Disintegrate will not work for other mage specializations apparently.
I don't really want to just blindly follow the meta, but if there's really no other choice...

The information Kyo says (here and elsewhere) is that I basically have to use this build, or else I'm 100% screwed.

Okay. I'll resepc into Frost Claw with the lightning spec. I'll need to go for crit stuff instead of DoT stuff, presumably, but the rest of my setup should work fine.

Yes, but not until tomorrow. On the wrong computer and past my bedtime as it is. Thanks.

i dont think your current progression stump is due to being sorc, its probably due to just gear at this point
astral moss
If I had, like, 30% more damage and 50% more ward, I'd be golden.
robust gorge
the ignivar + fallacy setup is OP on disintegrate, that should be your first farm priority
it makes you do 10-20x your damage

If I don't want to use MG, am I screwed? If a third person says yes, I'm switching to frost claw right away.

personally i feel like i could farm the level of gear in that linked build without issue
as CoF
you don't need lp3/4s for a build to function
or even lp2s, its luxury after lp1

gee its almost like the build ws a work in progress.
totally isnt like i did 800 corr with it
robust gorge
im just saying, i think a balanced character can go pretty far without needing any luxury items
barren pawn
you arent getting to any higher than about 4-500 on dis even with capped res if you dont have the other gear and the stats on it
astral moss
What if I only want 300? What then?
robust gorge
i think most builds with proper t20 gear can break 300
that is like the baseline according to the devs
barren pawn
the fk is t20 gear?
astral moss
Aight. 300 is considered successful, so that's what I am hoping for.

but sure ig
@astral moss need to prioritize t6/t7 spell crit affixes on pretty much any slot that can have it
dual julras is massive for the build too.
They arent needed
but they damn sure make it more potent
exsang + steps of the living enables easy as hell surv
robust gorge
you want to get shackles too probablyh
barren pawn
otherwise, you run foot of the mountain + an exalted chest
robust gorge
why not
barren pawn
You need the ll exper on gloves.....
robust gorge
yes, get lp1
spam experimental ward until it hits
since you're doing BFD for last step / exsang you will eventually get them too
barren pawn
you also lose out on health, which direct affects you as ll, you lose out on int, you lose out on crit.
shackles are not the play.
they are literally a waste unless you miraculously get a 3 or 4lp.
the extra ward retention is not worth the loss of a 5 stat exalted.
robust gorge
for shackles: going from 45% of current health as ward to 60% with t5 ll mod (or more with over t6+) is 33% more base ward per sec by itself. at 100 int you have about 400% ward retention + whatever else you have on the tree (assume 600 retention). most ll builds i play get at least 200% cold res, bringing that to another 33% extra ward.
for t22 gloves: 64% ward retention from t7 16 int is like 7% more ward. T5 hybrid health on your current setup is also only about 8% more base ward per second.
barren pawn
You literally lose out on a res stat, and 2 different offensive stats if you dont have a 3lp or 4lp./
It is not worth it in the slightest.
and it adds in another damn unique you need to farm
robust gorge
alright, lets talk about the offensive stat diminishing returns... on your current setup, that implicit crit + the t6 crit is only contributing 7% more damage
and even a t7 crit wouldn't contribute more than 8% either
i personally think that its unfair to say that shackles aren't worth it given how much effectiveness you get from it
barren pawn
they fkin arent. As someone thats used the damn things in the spec, the exalted gloves are just better
t6 crit + max roll implicit gives you an extra 100% crit. Which then goes into gamblers bucket to give you more spell crit.
The more crit you have the better.
The difference between 1600% and 2000% spell crit is gigantic
covert moon
Just say no to CRIT kids, it's a gateway drug

and even further amplified by the fact that other multis are applied after spell crit is
robust gorge
i factored in the damage buckets with those calculations
barren pawn
mmhmm. I really could care less. In practice there is a significant difference with 100% more crit factored in.
I literally spent the majority of a 1000 hour playtime theorycrafting the hell out of dis.
Shackles aint it.
robust gorge
thats fine, im mostly posting so other people reading this can understand the concept of "effective value per affix"
barren pawn
I lose out on nearly 200% spell crit not using the exalts.
reinstalled and logged in just to check.
the gloves on that link also arent the ones i have / use
silk pewterBOT
barren pawn
those are
ignore the unspent points
was in the process of releveling after trying out a different setup for dis
robust gorge
with the gloves off you have 1426% crit, with them on its 1537%. (1-(1426/1537)) = 0.07% more damage
barren pawn
where are you getting your numbers?
i literally ahve 1708 spell crit with them on
and 1528 with them off
so yes, in literal practice, its nearly 200% more.
even the letools i JUST linked shows 1678 with the gloves on
I go from 1678, to 1426.
thats 252% loss to spell crit.
thats absolutely fkn massive.
robust gorge
you didn't link it with actual mode saved in the config, but average
1-(1426/1678) = 15% more damage anyways
i would still personally sacrifice 15% more damage and 15% more ward (from int/health) for anywhere from 40% more ward to the 75%+ you can get with modifications by wearing shackles
astral moss
@robust gorge https://www.lastepochtools.com/planner/Avd58YWB Here is my character build at the moment. I'm lacking the uniques that will really help, apparently. Is going to non-empowered monoliths to target farm for them and/or using lots of prophecies a good way to get them?

🤔 Thought for a while and i see why sorcerer isn't a good choice.
This is a mage who good at fire damage or cold damage more than lightning damage because none of lightning skills cost pretty much mana and all builds of sorcerer is based on spell cost mana.

I've never looked into Frost Claw so far myself, tho I'm aware it is very strong in the current meta. Was just looking a bit on that topic, what brings me to a question:
What is the reason for really all FC players too choose Runemaster over Sorc, is is the passive RM bonus, which is obviously kinda nice, or the Invocation?

But this is what sorcerer good at on its passive bonus lol
A lot of mastery passives are just small bonuses that adds a little flavor to the class, sorc's is one like that. It's by no means game-changing nor worth building around.
night spruce
Runebolt gains 1 spell damage/strength, is there potential for a cleaver solution (Int = str) build. Put strength on your armour, ignore Int on the passive tree.
You gain a bunch of spell damage to compensate for having none on your weapon, and a bunch of armor to boot.
rapid hinge
you'll lose a bunch of flat spell dam implicit for not using staff/wand
with cleaver solution you're basically going around the world to the same destination
instead of going a straight way
and you dont have cast speed prefix on axe
astral moss
Uhhh no.... no its not. Fireball sorc benefits pretty well from what I've seen
It's a bit hard to tell whether Father Toast meant in general, or for disintegration. It's not useful for Dis at all by my estimation, simply because Dis doesn't require enough mana for it to kick in so it's effectively wasted points. If I was using, say, Glacier, then I bet it'd be very powerful.
astral moss
Glacier was just an example - the point was some spell that costs a lot to cast.
Anyway, it sounds like the general reason Runemaster is better than Sorcerer ultimately comes down to "it's a lot newer and the devs increased class power level overall and/or got better at designing classes over time". Is that pretty much it?
rapid hinge
well glacier doesnt cost alot to cast tho
or at least its mana cost doesnt scale off your own mana
rapid hinge
Glacier was just an example - the point was some spell that costs a lot to cast....
yeah i think it is
you can clearly tell how outdated the Sorc's passive tree is by looking at the number of nodes with a breakpoint
its the same for falconer comparing to bladedancer/marksman

your first priority is definitely going to be getting t20 rares (or exalts if you're lucky) for your build, and stashing any key t7s you find along the way. cap your crit avoid too
agressively start farming catalysts for ignivars and doing soulfire bastion for soul gambler's fallacy
swap out your idols for resistance idols and get health/int/crit on all your gear until you can fix resists elsewhere
then you can decide whether you want to go for endurance setup or low life
maybe twisted heart is a good option too but im not sure how that interacts with channeling skills
you can probably do all of that while working on your blessings
getting grand resolve of humanity or survival of might asap will ease a lot of gearing

im not sure what you're going for but i can probably help you brainstorm
a lot of what i said to kesseleth applies here, figure out the most important stats you need in every slot and work towards getting at least t20 / 4x t5 rares with them, or exalts if you're lucky
as for specific gear to aim for im not sure for self cast lightning blast. spark charge scaling is always a good option, but i haven't tried pushing pure LB dmg, i would look at various guides and see what people are doing
convergence, divergence and closed circuit are always worth looking at. self cast gets extra utility from closed circuit with overcharge/hypercharge too

Hi guys, this is my build https://www.lastepochtools.com/planner/QqPmgDPA. It's a working progress still (lot of gear fixing needed) and I am trying to build around Dusk Shroud of Cinders and Lament of the Lost Refuge, basically an "autocast style" where you cast lots of spells while hit in melee. My main issue is on generating Fire Aura which comes basically from Burning Hands, any tips that can help? I thinking on testing Flame Reave instead of Mana Strike for the extra chance of generating Fire Aura, but not sure if my mana will hold.

the ward per second on disintegrate meant to be this weak?
it feels a little underwhelming

Disintegrate is a tough skill to build for. I'm running into some similar issues. Your best bet is to get ward from Last Steps of the Living and/or Exsanguinous.
forest summit

it just sucks at 5 ward per second lol
i took the points out of it lol
astral moss
Question: I got Ignivar's Head (LP 0 though), but it plus a good wand I found actually makes my damage go way down compared to my staff (88K vs 140K). That isn't surprising to me since very little of my gear gets me crit stuff. I edited my loot filter a bit and used the Julra ring, which is useful, and I seem a bit stronger now, but still using the staff.
About how much added crit do I need to really see a good effect from it?

I think the drop you see is likely due to losing out base damage from staff, which is usually 2x more than wands and sometimes more.
astral moss
Probably. But also my staff is just really good in general. Equipping the catalyst and a decent wand, the drop is insane. Unless the tool tips are lying, it's not worth it.
I do think I'm a bit stronger now, or I've just gotten better at the game. I think I can start pushing corruption. Still, I need better exas that give me more damage I think.
astral moss
Honestly I am starting to get fed up enough with farming that I might just call the build here and take a break till next cycle. Staying still to use disintegrate just isn't any good and it's too annoying to gear just for 300 if I'm struggling so much with just plain empowered.
astral moss
Yeah, I gave it some thought and decided to shelve this one. I apparently chose one of the worst skills of one of the worst classes and while it apparently can still work I have so much else to do that I don't want to spend all my time farming the necessary gear to stumble through to success. I'll take a bit off and return at the next cycle. Paladin, I think. I learned a lot from this, thankfully. See you next cycle!
forest summit
Yeah, I gave it some thought and decided to shelve this one. I apparently chose ...
disintegrate has a lot of bad skills from what I felt using it lol. i had to take out points from the ward per second one because it suuuuucked
astral moss
Disintegrate is apparently one of the worst skills in the entire game. Its main issue at the end of the day is that to do serious damage it locks you in place, and that's awful for survivability. Also sorcerer is an old passive tree in need of revision. The combination of these is that a disintegration sorcerer requires a ton of hard to get gear to work - which is fine, but not conducive to my lifestyle. I was stubborn and tried to stick with it but I guess I found my limits.
forest summit
i also did sorcerer for my guy and run disintegrate
it does good damage, but not more than frost wall (fire) i feel
but its good consistent damage after meteor buff and fire wall setup
good single target damage since fireball is better for aoe
astral moss
Actually, I decided I would try one last thing. Looks like the way I put my points into Disintegrate is meaningfully different from what Kyo did, and I'm also going to try and drop Lightning Blast. Maybe that'll get me a huge performance boost. (At the very least I'll stop running out of mana all the damn time since the vast majority of my mana use is Lightning Blast and not Disintegrate).

I would go for it to see, but to be honest having screwed myself over with sorc and knowing the build is meh anyway kinda ruined the motivation for me. It's a risk of my attempting to flat out ignore the meta - turns out listening to the people smarter than me had its perks.

Did you ever play Path of Exile? There's this staff called Wandering Ice that gives a skill called Ice Storm. It is commonly paired with a cast on skill and a flame beam attack - flame beam being basically disintegrate, but in this case you build it to do basically 0 damage cuz it isn't useful. Ice storm made giant ice crystals fall from the sky and obliterate all the enemies. I called it a targeted missile launcher build - you point the targeting laser (flame beam) at the enemy, half a second later they got blown up by a giant missile attack. So much fun.

I redid all my skill points on Disintegrate. That alone massively boosted my damage (about 1.7 times or so). I no longer cast Lightning Blast too, which I thought would massively save on mana, butfiring two rank three disintegration blasts ended up sucking away any of those gains. Ah well - the damage boost is worth it. I also swapped out Flame Rush for teleport (and put it as a major skill since I no longer needed Lightning Blast), but I might go back.
I'm trying to get Soul Gambler's Fallacy now, but even on tier 2 I died to the boss twice. It's a player skill issue mostly - I'm just not good at the game and didn't know what attacks to avoid. I did a bit of looking up his various attacks and so now hopefully I know what I have to get out of the way of. I did it at tier 1 but the gambler only had one amulet and it didn't end up being SGF.
On that note: Is SGF more likely at higher dungeon tiers? If not, I might just keep doing tier 1.
