@Zeratul_PL
LS Traps damage shown is average damage per hit, not DPS, that's why the number looks really low compared to what it actually deals. Can't think of any skill that would be better to use in this case, you may still get the 10% Trap Throwing Speed the support gems gives, if not then either reroll, sell or just ignore it for now.
@ArisFuser
The real cost of that belt is getting two proper jewels, and the opportunity cost of losing another resistance slot, unless you have some on said jewels.
@exxxydawg
In addition to what the others said, i'd just like to go more into detail about this a little bit.In general, each jewel type has their pros and cons.
Regular jewels have more mobility-related affixes and increased damage% modifiers, of which all except for Spell Damage% also buff our Inpulsa explosions. This is great to take out rares/bosses right with the pack they spawned in, most notably in Delves or Beyond maps. The downside is that increased damage% (=additive) modifiers get less effective the more total increased damage% you have, which for example is also the reason why Wand/Sceptre implicits aren't as impactful for us as they seem. Abyss jewels mainly have flat damage modifiers, which are added directly to base damage before all multipliers, but are also affected by damage effectiveness. This means in our case, you only get 80% of the value added to Arc and 70% to LS Trap. In a normal setup for this build, a T3 added flat damage mod is about equal to an increased damage% modifier on regular jewels, which have no affix tiers. Another pro for Abyss jewels is that they can roll Shock Effect, which is a 2% more damage multiplier (=multiplicative) for us until we reach 150% total. The jewel you've linked is really good for this build, i'd just try to divine until both attack speed modifiers are at max value, if you can afford to do so.
@fichi
Might be time to invest into a 6L rare or Shroud of the Lightless, can't see anything else wrong with your char. If you check out my SSF Synthesis char, i've done both red Elder and Mastermind with it so it should be possible with yours too. Maybe try out some different Pantheons for those fights.
@LysergicDiethylamide
Gear is overall fairly good, Inpulsa would be a good upgrade now. Besides that, try to roll the right flask affixes and farm a boot enchant, also upgrade Pantheon if you haven't yet. Also get towards Written in Blood asap, the 0.4% Es leech you took in Ethereal Feast is also not needed.
@JulianSlink
Only ilvl84 and Shaped is needed for the affixes we want. Sorcerer Gloves are significantly cheaper (30c vs. 10ex) and give a bit more ES.
@menides
It's a good idea, the issues I have with it are that it takes away what i'm intended with the "How to look for & buy Gear" Miniguide, which is learning how to look for specific things, and that some scummy people would eventually take advantage and just buy up all cheap stuff to resell it for more.
@yakoob
Congrats! Yeah i'd annul the second dagger despite that T2 Ele as Chaos, could possibly open up a different suffix choice than 5% double damage chance on the other dagger or at the very least sell the craftable base.

The Eternity Shroud could be a good gear for our build I think. Does anyone agree?

" unless its a great inpulsa or you dont have anything else to upgrade (take a look at enki's what to upgrade tips), sure. a more budget-friendly option, however is to get a cheap inpulsa and use https://pathofexile.gamepedia.com/The_Jeweller%27s_Touch (You will create a fully-linked five-socket item with a single Jeweller's Orb) you will spend less than 1exal for a 5link inpulsa, and lets you upgrade other things until it is time to get that 6L | |
"Oh damn, I didn't know about this prophecy! I will most likely end up doing this then when I get off work if I can get a low socket Inpulsa, and I'm assuming this prophecy is somewhat expensive. Still probably a lot cheaper than an already 5 or 6L one though. Do I just need to buy the prophecy then add it to one of my 6 prophecy slots and then the first jewlers I use with it active it will work?

" The prophecy is like, 10c atm. Yes, you need to do just that. |

Hi all , do we need 20% quality on Lv21 Arc, Lv21 Lightning Spire Trap and Lv21 Discipline?

" ok thanks for your reply, so i should also keep flame dash ? but i'm kinda running out of sockets and spells (you can only have 8 spells in your spell book at the same time right ?) i found it troublesome to get a 3 linked red socket item in my stuff and a 2 green 1 red linked item for whirlwind / immortall call setup also when should i replace herald of thunder with wrath / zealotry for now i'm running the curse aura and discipline + herald of thunder. also i took mind over matter quite earlier than the guide said (30% of damage taken goes to energy shield) is it a problem or is ok ?) i'm pretty ahead in levels since i did some memory nexus and other stuff during the early acts Last edited by pachathelazyone on Apr 5, 2019, 8:35:05 PM

" You replace Herald of Thunder with Wrath/Zealotry when you have taken all the "Reduced Mana Reserved" nodes. There's a cluster of it just below Zealot's Oath to the left, and one node near the right of Eldritch Battery. Mind Over Matter is usually taken after Act 10 and you need decent energy shield for it to work, people says to have energy shield equal or more than 43% of your life. Also, you'll want to take Zealot's Oath so that when your energy shield runs empty from getting hit you're not a sitting duck and be able to use Whirling Blades away. 2 green 1 socket in daggers is possible with a few chromatic orbs. For 3 red sockets best way is to use the socket recipe that you can get from delving. It costs 120 chromatic orbs for 3 sockets of the same color. | |

Are the videos in the guide before the major nerf to arc?
