" You should buy new blade blast gem lvl 1, we need only unnerve effect form it and 20lvl can hurt you in Physical dmg reflect in map mods. Resist cap its quite easy even on 3-4 items only. look at my gear its not perfect but i focused on resit mainly on Belt and ring. got some resist on legendary boots and some on glove but mainly on ring and belt you can add some jewels with % all resist too :) Buy any Cloak of defiance i mean cheapest one, do some devine rolls, and try to six link by yourself, i did that with only 317 fusings, i know thats RNG but in this league there is alot of 6gem items droped and fusing hunting its quite easy. with Atziri amulet you should not have stat req. problems. And Crown should be quite cheap between 10-30 chaos in console. Last edited by WrednyPigeon on Feb 6, 2021, 8:03:37 PM

" You should probably try to do a bit more with quality on your gems. Check Enki's guide on what gems you should try to have quality on. I'm honestly not sure if the pathing to phase acrobatics is worth it, since you have to invest 21 points to get there. Those could be put in cluster jewels. But I don't know the math here, if it works for you, good for you. :P You might want to look for a belt with mana recovery and the helmet enchant after fixing the quality on gems next. |

" Good one. I bought yesterday 21 lvl gems 0% first because were cheap and there was no gems 21lvl with 20-23%. If they were, the price was to high. I have around 13ex atm to spend. Thx, Good idea im gonna look In trade market tommorow. Still waiting for other ideas! Last edited by WrednyPigeon on Feb 6, 2021, 9:11:26 PM

Hi Enki,
This is the third season I have played Arc Witch., I love it! I always get to about level 75-80 and end up stuck from either low dps or too squishy. I also struggle with my full rotation/skill use as I'm still a novice gamer. Any tips for me? Thanks, Rafflesiaa |

" The gems you have at lvl20 0% you can use in a vendor recipe: the lvl20 0% + a gemcutter prism will give you a lvl1 20% of the same gem. They will level up pretty quick towards 20 again. Highly recommend this. |

I'm looking for some advice. I've played this build for the past few seasons, but always end up hitting a wall where I don't feel like going further. I'm still a fairly novice player, this is my first league getting into red maps and learning how to progress quicker into the Atlas. So still fairly inexperienced.
I'm wondering what I should be focusing on to progress. I'm starting to die more in red maps and bosses are taking too long to die, so my DPS is starting to lag behind. I know my gear is still fairly basic starter gear, but my resistances are so tight (I'm even at 72 of one of my resistances). So I feel like I'd have to completely redo my gear if I want to upgrade even one item. Also I have a 5L Cloak of Defiance, but I'm already low on DPS, is it worth swapping my 6L chest for a 5L Cloak? | |
" Swapping to a Cloak of Defiance will increase your defences, but you will do less dps if it's just a 5-link. You're missing quite a lot of mana on your wands and other items. Mana will increase your dps and your defence through Mind over Matter. When I'm gearing up I generally try to look at the end result, and what room I have for resistances. Once I've mapped that out, I try to buy my gear one by one with that end result in mind. If I see that I can only have T1 or T2 resistances on my end gear, I try to buy gear that already has that (but is still cheap). The other mods I fix over time, when I have the currency for it, but resistances are basic. Open your browser and set up a few tabs on the trade site with a filter per item slot you need, and check once every hour to see if something cheap has popped up. Once I have those items, I can freely swap to Cloak of Defiance, Crown, Omeyocan, ... without having to redo my entire setup. Last edited by Reechaani on Feb 7, 2021, 4:54:21 AM

I really don't know how to survive physical damage bosses. I kept getting one shotted by tier 15+ bosses.
|

" We only have a few baked in defences against physical damage: - Chaos golem (max up to 30% physical damage reduction with 5 golems and anomalous lvl 21 gem boosted by +2 spell skill gem mods on wands) - Granite Flask of Iron Skin - 15% attack block from dual wielding You can further boost your survivability by getting: - Omeyocan (20% attack and spell dodge) - Quartz Flask (10% attack and spell dodge) - Lunaris/solaris Pantheon But for melee physical damage the best defence is flame dashing away from the boss or projected attacks. |
