and not that amazing
kinda like issth
but after that it become amazing
and some scenes/arc mae him famous
๐
really goated
it's after beseech the devil wasn't it
beseech the dvil = pursuit of the truth
pursuit of the truth is a bit more depressing
very emotional at time
very good
it's like enough that i don't feel like re reading but I love the book
but people are snowflakes
wtf
you have books even first reading you want to die
those are the depressing ones
that nobody should read
๐ I had horrible read
a few time
you should not avoid them for this reason talking about the er gen novels they aren't like that
guess I'll give it a whirl sometime
haven't gotten too much time to read lately though, I even have a lot of titles I was already reading that's been put on hold
tell me what's been put on hold
i can tell you which one to go :p
sec, maybe we should take this elsewhere
Lotm gang unite
๐ง
i was reluctant to give it a go cos u know... chinese slop
but im glad my friend forced me to watch it
the anime was really good, and more anime need to have much longer episodes like ong
as for reading it, yeah, i dont really have time for such
๐
you didn't read the book
they good
whatever prevent you from doing it quit it
jobs
no need
nah seriously the books is like way better
I hope you try it one day
just start is slower pace but after the first act
DAMN
well if u pay me 6k โฌ a month ill gladly quit my job and stay at home doing nothing but play games and read books
That's a lot of armor dang
does increase relic drop rate works on boss drop
like lagon
not on boss specific drops
Id do it for half that xd
Good deal
the issue is not for how much i would do it for, but i have my own issues to deal with ๐ซฉ
like realistically if i was not paying anything or paying rent i could stay home on as little as 200
Yea it would be a math question I think
If I didnt have a mortgage I could get by on like 1000$/month or something, but alas. Mortgage is massive and here to stay lmao
Right?!?!
What kind of GPU are you looking for?
GPU? Idk I have 6800 XT so something a fair bit better than that
In Canada?
Yep
I'm just waiting for roving bands of gamers to start raiding data centers to steal GPUs because they can't get them legit
@harsh abyss big hesitation between blood of the grasp something with the fire relic OR atrophy and a regular relic you proposed
getting damaged by 250% of spend mana when I scale the mana cost of static orb feels a bit bad
but blood of grasp and the fire disintegrate relic the synergy is insane
Oh, you mean the catalyst?
Relic means something else ๐
The "hit damage over time" effect is very good, but I dunno if the flat crit is better than the penetration from atrophy
Definitely worth testing out if you're going to use Ignivar's
lol,yeah
this for me feel like BIS
because the res like they are exactly what I lack
get so many ele res other way
no need for void
res
Yeah, and the ward you get from it is really good
Finding the right exalteds is where I always end up drifting away from the game.
Farming just isn't fun enough to want to keep going when I'm not able to make any progres
also can't find the body armour
and amulet
and still didn' t get a +4 disintegrate relic
to get disintegrate
all my items that I slammed were rune of havoc
๐
@harsh abyss
mana is so bad
I mean that's really good
Both Unstable Core and Orrians Eye are pretty rare uniques
I wonder if the fire version of disintegrate might be stronger because you can go all in on crit chance and attribute stacking, then you could use the Weaver amulet and grasp of the blood mage for a ton of base crit chance. Then stack intelligence for tons of increased crit chance and more fire damage from the disintegrate tree
With enough attributes, the weaver amulet could be like +10% crit or more without sacrificing too much else since you want to attribute stack anyway.
probably better
@harsh abyss
I wanted to allocate this
but can'"t handle the mana cost
it's good because charged ground
Yeah, it'll drain your mana real quick, even with decent mana stacking
I mostly use static orb as like entry dmg on clear
it can kills trash
often I can even do it twice
grouping mobs
if they are still alive
@harsh abyss idk why
but you said attribute stacking
with fire
yep
Too bad it's only fire damage, it would be amazing if it could pair with the Vilatria set
@harsh abyssbtw do you know other synergy with mana stacking
maybe I can consider another one than static orb
if I knew
there is no stacking on lightning blast and static
which have synergy with disintegrate
If you had stacking on LB you would just create another ZHP ballista
The only other real mana stacking synergy with your skills is Focus, which you obviously can't channel while you're also channeling disintegrate.
it's sad I have to convert to lightning to get the mana stack
could be funny to stay fire/lightning
probably looks cooler
Yeah, the sort of "Plasma" look is pretty neat
I checked
i took fire convert
but my ability stay lightning
I thought if I take both I annul
too bad
xD
Yeah, usually multi-conversion effects on LE skills have one overwrite the other.
we can't mana and int stack anyway
at the same time
Unless you have Uniques to bypass that,
Not with this mentality 
Many items have both mana and int prefix
Not reasonably certainly. Getting all those affixes on your items would be real rough.
because I if I took the fire node first
then lightning
I may be able to acess the mana stack node
while staying fire
nvm
it's ligthning dmg per mana
no, it also specifies which one overwrites the other, order of choosing doesn't matter
Generally if x conversion overrides X conversion it's the same outcome no matter what point order you do
So no if lightning overrides fire , it doesn't matter how you arrive there, it will always be lighting override fire
I see
dude
i got this
the affixe on it is stronger
it's as strong as a 4x1 idol
but it's a 3x1
Yeah, you can get an omen idol that is insane if you get super lucky
Because the prefix can roll up to 40 flat mana
Yeah, they're very good
I need to check how to get unstable core
and the amulet
they are so hard to get
maybe body is on boss
I see
it's as expected
๐
what's up with those crazy unique thatt elemental nova has
TL:DR Ele Nova sucks and is REALLY hard to make work correctly. The helmet allows it to be not SO terrible. You need like 40+ levels in it to make it pretty good, and even then it'll just be worse than something like meteor
I have a built for it, but I never got it up and running the league because getting all the pieces together just took too long.
You'd probably have an easier time just running brand of deception with ele nova as the applicator
yep
My build used Gordian Prism to hyper-cast a ton of ele novas
Because every time you use RI, you cast 3 novas
there is an unique I wanted to build around one day
I saw it on the website
bane of winter
can't show it it's too big
That's a fun one
obviously it's a sentinel build
sentinel is very fun
im done farming my item drop blessings
took me 10 boss fight
now let's farm atrophy while using body armour/idols prophecy
and pray for an amulet
I've only ever run bane of winter on spellblade, imo that's its ideal use
and not sentinel ?
๐ฎ
why
You can stack dexterity with mourningfrost and benefit more from the spell damage stuff on it
I ran shatter strike bane of winter back in 1.1, it was pretty fun and should be better nowadays
maybe even as a "cold" damage flame reave, sounds kinda cursed 
how do people scale brand of deception
Using the Vilatria helmet to get a ton of shock chance
Vilatria set with Disintegrate would probably be pretty good in general.
can"'t I just use the affix
ah no you meant the base itme
item
You can use the affix but you need it to be T7 to be as good as the base item
And endgame you definitely do want to craft the items so you can make them on a good base
IDK if that helm is super good for disintegrate specifically
That or black blade or fundamental criterion
@harsh abyssyou think I should remove my helmet and took the helmet from the set ?
im not the pinnacle of tankiness
๐ญ
๐คทโโ๏ธ
If you want to scale brand of deception
But I dunno if that's super necessary
is this a good build btw
my runic invocation works so well with it like it's so smooth just I don't deal enough dmg with it
make me want to like try to build around it
one day
I never did it, but a couple of seasons ago, Brand of Deception was super popular
slammed a T7 mana roll on wand to test see if the tool tip is better dmg
and got 2 unstable core
:p
now let's find nemesis for 1 lp
Im thinking there should be a way to make an afk build
@nimble shoal
what do u think
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HPYIMj4adPk indeed there is
found a better altar setup for rampancy for bosses. my build is at the spot where im stretching for every more multiplier i can get and the 4% and ambition stacks beat out the more multiplier i get from frenzy

If you're okay using a skill that moves you instead of clicking to move, you could run something like that with mana guide, the frost claw stuff is not really reliable though. It would be another you'd probably need to scale brand of deception to get any damage on.
finally
omg
so tough to get those
but weaver tree is busted
nvm I can't kill jura T4
@hybrid girder why core of the mountain over wings of argentus?
Why traitors tongue over firestarters?
stats mainly but i'm going back to wings and when i get a better scissor
I was calculating maybe 5% DMG per 10 vit and even less for strength in my build, not sure how yours maths
160% fire melee DMG +2 skill points was better for me.
yeah it maths out for sure. the damage immunity is pretty useful. getting a +level or all attributes corruption would be great. been stashing tons of them for a run. kinda want to do a +24 vita (run scissor for another +2 to flame reave) in stead of +4 flame reave affix
spellblade=fangs of the beserker, sorc/runemaster you take one of the penetration/leech in the sorc tree
firestarter is about the same as traitor tongue for damage and gives +4 to flame reave
shit, I'm doing a spell-based spellblade so melee leech is kinda ๐ and the sorc tree is so deep
then youd run siphon on anguish ring, immortal vise hands or leech on body armor (null portent)
theres avarice and blood mage hands for leech, tome of elements and valdyrs for relic also
is there supposed to be a debuff icon for spark charges?
I don't seem to see anything on my targets
I have the "lightning blast procs spark charges explosion immediately" node unspecced too
fuuuuk, I didn't realize that the Inferno node on firebrand doesn't convert to lightning
rip build
Question - is this enchantment on the 2v2 adorned mage idol from weaver faction?
I'm just coming back, didn't do a lot of weaver stuff before - You have idols, and then the "only" form of enchantment is via the weavers, which you can re-enchant over and over for a fee, and then on top of enchanting you can corrupt idols, yes?
But the omen corrupted idols only drop from the omen activities? The ones with really high values like 28% increased cast speed w/ lightning aegis?
I need to figure out how to effectively complete my weaver faction tree (get all the skill points and faction reputation), and then also need to figure out how to farm enough amber to play around so I can fix my idols which I feel are lacking pretty hard.
Stats
LE is all about stat stacking which is kinda lame but it is what it is
if it's enchantment then it's from the weaver maps, yeah
the omen idols are from the omen activities, correct
they're basically 3 size idols with the affix of 4 size idols
you can still find the same affix/values on a 4 size equivalent regular idols
also keep in mind you can't enchant corrupted idols, including omen ones
wtf
I didn't expected that
I'm trying to look for rune of havoc
oh if I was 12 cof i would get 28 but im not yet 11
Also it doesn't exist
There is an รฉvolution that reward you with havocs
let's go then
im gonna get some beast rift there
yes my build is so bad im staying at 100 corruption
don't judge
๐ซ
I also failed doing jura T4
so I can't slam unstable core
๐
no orian eye
Ah, yeah that's a rare one
@wanton zinc Have you thought of using this ring?
im curious are there build that focus on stun ?
should be strong as a defensive layer
๐
That seems like how the Flame Reave build I'm playing works. I can stunlock all bosses I've tried.
Haven't gotten to Uber Aberroth because haven't farmed corruption high enough on that alt.
Yes and no ๐
Stun chance is not a very good stat
The stuns come from dumping so much damage + stun chance blessing.
More dmg = more stun
Because your chance to stun directly scale with your dmg, you would have rather take dmg than sacrifice dmg for stun chance
So any HIT based build that have enough dmg will end up stunning most of the game
I think there is but it's a really rare stat
And also not that useful
But weren't you playing Disintegrate?
Lol, yeah no worries
i have lot of time to be curious while channeling
I just didn't want to see you invest a ton of stun chance in your build and ask why you aren't stunning anything with Disintegrate
tons of stuff I want to try out
one day maybe I can play a full on maelstorom build
As a mage?
I'm shooting for this build on my primalist: https://www.lastepochtools.com/profile/Pang_E/character/totem
I still don't exactly understand why it pops so hard when I start rampaging, but it deletes the screen when I do.
The one thing I can't wear yet is that necklace.
๐
funny the i don't understand how im so strong and handsome
but I am
lol, it's not my character I sent.
I know part of the mechanic is 200%+ More damage when rampaging, but can't find why the lightning bolts all activate at the same time.
got two 2 lp mana guide from nemesis
Gonna play t-pose build now?
no there was one mana guide in it and one egg
i thought I might as well throw a second one for the lolz
you get 1 flat per str while in form, as well as the more multipliers from relentless thunder and unending storm, the increased from apex predator and shapeshifter buff, the pen from primordial resonance, the additional bolts from crackling assault, and likely a much higher multi on excited bolts in gathering storm.
I missed that extra 300% multiplier :D, but still it goes from meh damage to screen explodes
He's also shooting for a crazy amount of mana regen, which after playing the build I can see why.
Looks to be stacking cast speed as well, which I guess is to dump as many Tornados as possible while in human form.
Solid
Some that hit frequently enough, is melee and doesnt rely on attack speed at all
So usually Shield Bash in Sentinel
LOL
๐ก
I know i know
The unique affixes are maxed
now that is good
i'll corrupt it after
because i have a back up
@robust juncoadded freeze multi
lame
looks awesome, how is it for bossing though?
5k corr 
it's fine, just selfcast flame reave. needs good gear though
reduce surge cd with these and make it proc flame weave
wow
im not impressed though my build that is dying at 100 corruption is stronger
๐ญ
i wish
@robust junco do you think anyone ever built around flame ward as dmg
this could be fun you proc it and run around
for clear sunwreath+red ring is better. bossing ocearon/siphon beats it. 22 vita = 10% more multi. ocearon+siphon = 36%
ran it for a while but teleport gives you cooldown recovery + 50% ele increased for 8 seconds and can jump through walls and is so great for positioning on uber
great for mapping. at high corruption though being in melee range where stuff melees 10k+ it tapers off but would be great upto 1000c
kinda need firebrand for uabby, missing dps otherwise
and idk i feel immortal at 5k corr
or idk if u ment instead of surge just for uabby
Its awful
I find it SOOOOOO satisfying when a BIG pack of mobs arrives you flame ward and thousands of dmg ticks pop up
5000c? plz link the build

is there any build for Mage that uses Static Orb where its orbiting you ?
sweet build. your EHP is crazy in that setup nice job
are you playing offline or softcore?
softcore mg but this was just an offline test before i start making it on online
Is your build mainly using static orb to Deal damage
No its disintegrate but I use static orb to help me clear
I evade it proc it
Clear trash mobs
You should able to stack mana and build around it
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zQFb9KYPKfo this might be up your alley
(from 1:10 onwards)
You are basically looking for Fire Aura. Flame Ward even has nodes in the tree that specifically work for Fire Aura. And pushing Flame Ward will give your Fire Aura a big damage boost depending on setup.
if I ever get a 4 lp im gonna try to make it work again
I failed on a spellblade before (but I suck at LE)
maybe primalist would be better
not really
im sure you can find on youtube
@errant dragon do you know if i need madness like a 100 % or is itj ust a nice bonus?
it sadly doesnt function like it used to be any other good mage builds that are fun ?
like fireball sorc?

scared of what ๐ฎ
rerolling abilities in campaign is annoying/horrible

don't wanna corrupt ๐ already bricked the backup ladle
You know the rule
Both of you





claw/nova elemental RM feels crazy with 200 madness
you can't see anything
could jump straight to 1k corr with lvl 90 though, didn't expect that
40 flat spell from this + legends entwined is a great synergy
How do you sustain the mana?
I keep nova at 0 mana cost for the mana regen for every 3 hits
and for frost claw full mana idols with prefix altar
where is your crest of unity 
actually , can u give me your planner for this
sure but take it a with a grain of salt @unborn hamlet

i have my old FC + nova gear but with freezrate set up, if madness does a lot more dmg im willing to try it
any reason for the brewmaster buckle?
wouldnt Orian belt just be straight up dmg
yep, as I said
just threw some stuff together
with orian, better helmet
also better relic and catalyst
actually I was wondering about scales of eterra
as is i can pretty much use most of my LB gear
interaction with nova?
yea but ur probably getting a lot of dmg with this set up thanks to the spark charge from enigma
and thats probably why it works to begin with
actually not
i swapped points from arcana elementorum to spark charges
and doesn't make much of a difference
nova is 132k
spark charge 113k
I compared at dummy also
seemed very similar
yea so
ur nova hits 130k
applies spark charge
that deals another 100+k when it pops
so ur gonna nerf ur dmg by half if u remove enigma
probably doesnt matter for trash mobs, but u gonna see big diff on bosses
basically i just need to find good bloodmage and exulis and i could make this
too bad i threw away all the exulis i had ๐
๐ฎ why
luckily i have like 1000 prisons so it doesnt matter much
im tryna keep one of each conversion type
i dont even pick up nihilis off the ground if its not 2LP
dont really pick up any unique off the ground unless its high LP ๐
i have pretty big 4LP collection
you are not playing seasonal then I suppose?
no its legacy
i have no reason to pick up seasonal cos i dont like other classes
will see what the paid ones gonna look like

prepare to see nothing on your screen

i played claw nova before
I mean
just freeze rate set up
i already had screenwide nova even without madness, how big its gonna be with madness doesnt matter ๐
idols with area effect exist

@proven haven hmm, to restore mana via potion, isn't the meteor belt needed?
bullied by the mod
I did it
stop teasing me XD
I wasn't available before

yooooo........
ouch

you can't go around showing this to people
it's fin tbh
4 LP
4 lp peak is pretty common
I never seen a 4 lp in my life
also I don't play lot of LE
I mean you are happier than me anyway
you play a good build
im stuck 100 corrupt
well this build is just fun
i corrupted it
slapped uberroth with judgement pally
and farmed all uber echos
since then chilling
I play disintegrate lightning
and back to testing
corrupt everything, no mercy
with glyph of dominion

I farmed tons of them
1 lp
I tried to make them 2 lp
all failed
then I put them all in nemesis
they all became crappy except one became back a 1 lp
but it has to be one with shitty roll
also I can't kill jura T4
so I can't even slam them
POG Corruption
for more corruption got ele res
so I finally succedded at doing jura T4
then learned I had no mana T7 that work
one has 3 affix with sealed affix and no forging potential
other one is acolyte
I thought it would work
I just wasted all my havoc earlier
so I end up wih T6 mana
ffs
150% ele res = 30 ward per second
definitely not bad
@robust junco
another gg corrupt
I earned 250+ mana
upgrading from my shitty unstable core
to the good one

two red rings drop
HOLY SHIT
๐
build a storm totem shaman, i guess? they scale with shock chance
yeah so many things I can build around
but I just want my relic 1 lp
I did 24 lagoon I got only one relic
Yeah, because you've converted it to lightning with the Flame Ward tree (it also converts your fire aura)
Evolutions End used to be a really good amulet because it gave +2 to all skills, but they removed that this season and now it's basically a trash amulet for non-minion builds
so I got to get some crit
im going to invest in lightnig aura then
it's freeeeeee
Ignivar's does already give you a bit of flat crit, and you're probably getting the 3% increased crit per intelligence, so you can always stack intelligence wheever you can get it
Yeah, that converts to lightning resistance scaling with the conversion
I had no idea
And you're already getting a lot of resist from glyph and other stuff
Yeah
388 lightning
It's a good combo

Yeah, for amulet you could go for the new weaver one until you get an Orrian's or other good mana amulet
Abandonned Eyes of the Weaver
It would be pretty good, you need more Int though
Yeah, that version of the build focuses more on Int than mana stacking
Would this work ?
Nah, non-channeled
The general wisdom is to go for an int-stacking spellblade if you're going to go Ignivar's
But that removes all your RM synergies
yes
But the spellblade version gets 1% flat crit per int, 1% flat crit per 40 stats, 3% increased crit per int, and 8% increased crit per dex. Which is a LOT of crit.
Yeah, I feel like Ignivar requires too much to be good here
it's better than a normal exalted relic
even with minimal investment in crit
I think
Yeah, definitely is.
@robust junco@robust junco what about trying to get the most without investing too much
I got 70 int
it's not that bad
I can get more
And you are at 36%
wow
Yeah, with Blood Mage and the int node and just as much as you can get is pretty good
It's a pretty good More multiplier, BUT you might be better off with a well rolled staff.
Because you'd get so much more flat spell damage, it would be like 100% more damage (effectively)
Yeah
53% with weaver amulet and crit blessing
Im just worried about removing runemaster (defense and dmg) also I checked all the passive spellblade past 30 are a bit meh
melee hit
It means you could get Ele Dot and Spell Crit on your 2lp Wand
isn't penetration better than ele dot
?
I got to find 10 pts to remove
at least
Would have to make the math, idk
Ele Dot rolls pretty high
hmm
I'd get rid of these:
160 ward per second
yep
or 80
@robust junco@harsh abyss spellblade may not be so bad
do you think it's the superior option ?
im gonna check respec cost
Its definitely the best dps option I think
I NEVER thought I would end up spellblade
I want to stay alive im worried the more I tinker the more ward I lose
932 000k gold
okay
im too poor
these are nice things RM gives me
If you do that, you probably want to use Legends Entwined + Vilatria helmet, because of the int stacking benefits.
if I go spellblade
?
Yeah
Since you'll be stacking like 200 intelligence, that'll net you like 100 flat spell damage, which is huge
On top of all the crit chance for Ignivar
I will go do that
once I get enough gold
I get so much dmg multi as rm
but I would get even more as spellblade
so
Yeah and you just swap your priority: int > mana instead of mana > int.
Mana still good, but int is best.
Well,arent you playing Lightning ?
So More fire Dmg is not that useful ^^
Are you still RM ?
๐
that's good
Yup that too
no way for me to get 2 fire rune
even if I let flame rush ligthning
if I remove runic invocation the runes disappear
flame ward has to be lightning
The reason you'd go Spellblade is for the flat crit from int stacking on top of everything else.
Not for the actual int stacking node in disintegrate
im gonna stay rune master, vlad found me nice interaction
That would give you like... 13%+ flat crit which means your base crit at 200 int (with grasp of the blood mage) is something like 25%, meaning your real crit is at least 175%, which converts to 175% More damage via Ignivars. And that' assuming you don't get the dex crit node or anything else.
will be cool to try to make it work
but it's tough to decide on how to scale it
as I can't all in on spellblade/int
There are lots of options
Very nice
how do you pair health with ward ?
why do so many points giving ward give also health
Low health items like Exsanguinous directly benefit from more health
should I run those ?
Also Arcane Warden:
Spellblade passive
And Wall of Nothing converts Endurance threshold (which you get from having more health) to ward decay threshold
im staying rune master
because I love the thing that I have going on
flame rush glyph of dominion
It's kind of a specific build that you build around. If you were going spellblade it might be good, but as RM, not doing it is probably better.
fire aura
also it cast the only runic invocation have lightning dot
funnily enough I won't complain about extra clear
which invocation is it casting?
fire lightning lightning
interesting
what changes of unique do I need to make
if I stay rm
helmet I can probably find better
even though +2 to buff and more ward is nice
im curious if I should keep going for mana stacking
while getting int
whenever I can
Yeah, where you can it will still be BIS damage. Every 8 mana is 1% more damage
The value is definitely there
Your amulet probably could be upgraded. It's gonna be tough to stack both int and mana
what's nice is not every item has ele dmg/int/mana available
so I feel like it's not so bad
Yeah, like if you get Orrian's Eye you aren't giving up any int, but can get like 300 flat mana
Yeah
for some reason
Chestpiece gives more int than other items
Also, you don't have a primordial right now. Replacing a ring with Legends Entwined and then the helm with a good Vilatria reforged is probably a really solid DPS increase especially since you're focusing on int stacking.
Alternatively, Reliquary Next is BIS relic for mana stacking
I tthink I prefer keeping lagoon relic
so it helps fire aura also
๐
Yeah, Lagon relic is very good
Vilatria set will probably double your DPS
idk why but sometimes I have lightning storm
hitting ennemies
it's like im playing a shaman
That's from the Lagon relic
oh lol
It summons a storm totem, which is a shaman ability
yeah, because you can't specialize in it it won't be very good
tbh it's worth 1K style point
if I show this to my brother he would want to play start to play this game
he is fan of lightning mage
haha
what do you think is the best wand
now that static orb has been retired.
Once you get Vilatria set going, Mad Alchemist's Ladle
You need flat spell damage, which triboelectra has a good bit of
OH wait
Instead of Legends entwined, you could use the intelligence primordial wand
Horn of the Bone Wisp
It has pretty low flat damage though, maybe LE + Vilatria is better
it barely sounds better than tri
+4 to intelligence skills is a lot
yeah
Well
the 15 int is good if you have vilatria, which... you can't combo with it ๐
Which is why no one uses it
Triboelectra is probably best still, even without static orb
Disintegrate is very point-hungry to get all the More multipliers.
im so smart I was always having this masterplan going
I miss one pts for the last shock one
and I have everything mandatory
my dmg skyrocketed like crazy
in the last 2 hours
But think about this: If you stack intelligence, Vilatria gives 1 flat damage per 2 int. Right now, you have a TOTAL of 77 flat damage. Which means that you only need 154 intelligence to have vilatria double your damage.
Yeah
goated movie btw
It'll be a big upgrade
will smith
so I find set item
i shatter
then I craft it
rune of havoc to get t7
then I slam into a good helmet
for me
No
You can't slam set items
Shatter set item
Find a good exalted helm
Clear a prefix
Craft set bonus
Seal set bonus
Craft affix you want
Level it up
Havok/Chaos/Envy to get the right T7s, rolls, and subtype
You COULD havok set bonus to level 7 instead of sealing it, but the more important part of the set is the set bonus usually. Since you've got brand of deception active all the time, you could Havok to 7 for good value.
If you're scaling brand of deception, the important part is the helm affix itself, so you probably would want to havoc it to T7 (or seal it at T8 if you're feeling spicy)
So I cant use a unique helmet
Thanks
The build is so much better now
Way more dmg
Way more clear that is extra comfy
Easy on the hands
Its a real build now
Disintegrate lightning aura int and mana stack rune master
So no need for shock chance
I use the brand but I doubt its gonna scale great
Dont care about it
Well...
If you have 200 int, that's 1200% more damage. And you're also already scaling ele dot, which is the other scaling vector it has
Ill see if I can invest in it
Without losing
Tbh I dont even know if it proc on dor
Dot
In Poe it wouldnt
Your Glyph when it explodes will proc it
Seems not consistent
So maybe good maybe not
Ill see
Glyph give some shock chance
80%
Worth losing an affixe on helmet
Idk
Mana or int
I prefer int. It works for everything including dรฉfense
Yeah, most builds always come back to int stacking for mage
Another method I've seen people use is make Lightning Blast cost enough mana to proc Brand of Deception
Can you force lightning blast to bring you to negative mana then use the zero mana cost node to proc https://www.lastepochtools.com/db/items/UAwRhBZ2I
interesting idea, no clue
It it can proc blue feather could that proc the unsealed mana node in rune master?
Could get 30ish mana back everytime you go empty
I do dex stacking sometimes just for something different 
Which is stronger? Lightning blast or black hole?
Lightning blast by a mile,black hole has a nice one shot build uber but gameplay style cant be compared
Ty
Frozen has a video about it black hole in YouTube if you are interested seing that
Yes frozen sentinel right? I go search
Yes
Tyvm
do you have a aspirational build for your disintegrate RM?
@unborn hamlet can even sustain mana with only 2 claw idols
How does fireball conflagration work? If i take it once to get +30% ignite chance, do i get 52% or 70%?
you get +30% chance to ignite on hit
if it was a multiplier it would state "increased chance"
when I use throne of ambition for "tri elemental" elemental nova does it apply ~26.8% more damage at max stacks?
Thats what i got too
No I was doing it as I go
bruv gimme that cast speed corruption
is it possible ?
i mean, yes but, i want it on my gloves ๐ bloodmages useless for me
doesnt matter
if i converted all the gazes i have across all timelines im probably gonna go well over 100k corruption 
im having fun doing stupid stuff
I have lot of plans
๐
lot of boss drop into nemesis tower
mage cache
one reroll weaver echo, one more weaver amber to surrounding stuff and many others
@robust junco big hesitation between slamming Mana, ele dmg over time, lightning pen on my amulet. Edit : i decided to slam mana for more ward aswell
mana is good work for defense but not fire aura
I need defense I guess
on a 2 lp it's easy it would be mana + one of the other
@harsh abyss๐ฅ
I wanted to brag about having droppped it also
๐
What build are you playing?
rune master lightning disintegrate with fire aura
im stacking int and mana
I slammed mana
Very nice, now you just need 7 or 8 more so you can reroll the mana value ๐
What is the int stacking getting you? Does it fit into the build somehow?
and int give % dmg, flat spell dmg for fire aura. Ward retention and a few node probably scale with int
without synergy int is still very good for all mages
Yeah, it's alright
also I never wanted to imply my build was super good or competitive
