[outdated] Caustic Arrow Solo Map MFer (20/300+)

As usual, the plethora of questions arrive while I'm sleeping and Hank/Chrono do an amazing job covering off the answers.

I should probably pay you guys.

Thanks again.

Did my first endgame lab yesterday and got this enchant. You can imagine my reaction :D

How much does it affect your total damage? I imagine this would be additive, like having +40% proj damage instead. But if it is multiplicative with other bonuses, it would be huge!

Just like hank replied, it's the same as 4x 10% projectile nodes, a huge boost considering it is "free". About that helm, do you CA pros have an idea of how much it costs? Because I was looking earlier and find out that there are 361 possible helm enchantments per tier so it's a 0.277% chance, it must worth a lot I believe.

Serleth, I will gladly accept any feathers you do not want.

@tgodoy85

I regularly see ilvl84 helms with the 40% CA enchant going for 40-50c. When you start getting into helms which are partially to fully crafted the prices start to climb pretty dramatically. One example of a partially crafted hem is this Athlete's Lion Pelt of Haast (Amazing for Hidden Potential). I can only imagine what a fully crafted rare would fetch on the player market.

Yeah, just like I thought. I was talking to a friend yesterday and we get to a 10ex consensus, guess we were not too far away from the actual value.

I had a nice Goldrim with the increased CA damage last league, listed it for about that - mostly because I didn't really want to *sell* it. Yours is likely worth that due to it being end game gear instead of leveling gear if nothing else.

I'm hitting just over 13k DPS with 7 frenzy charges, with a somewhat squishy 3.5k life or so. I do have another level 75 Scion I could respec for Occultist/Deadeye, but considering this char (which hasn't Ascended yet) how might I go about getting more overall benefit out of the build? In maps with less lightning damage I replace Pandemonium Whorl with an Andy which leaves me with 70 lightres

What the rest of the crew said, and I'll add my +1 for seething flasks. The things are amazing - they are always full, they heal instantly - I keep one for bleeding, one for poison, and one for freezing. If you're low on health, spam the 123 keys and you're instantly back to normal with most nasty effects cured.

Also: Ascend. You can easily take the lab / Izaro in normal and cruel by now, you'll get some free enchantments, some extra passive points, and you can finish off either deadeye or occultist, either of which will improve your survival rate by a lot.

Not unless you've figured out some way to monetize the thread first! ;)

Uhhh

The next person who posts owes me a cake.

There.

=D

sure, i make a mean apple pie...

currently upgrading my gear.. was saving a bit for the +3 bow at first but then i read the thread and some posts again and upgraded to andvarius and some jewels.. got some sweet deals on them :)

now to fit the second one in and max out resists :D that will be a nice puzzle.

btw do we benefit from Elemental Damage on Weapons??
