(3.2) [Lighty] 2H RT Cyclone: Dope for Beast League & Lab™
" I'm not an expert, trying to understand how CWDT and CoH work myself for planning gemming. But CWDT Level 1, which is what is in the boots you posted, only supports gems requiring up and below level 38. Enfeeble lvl9 requires level 48, and Molten Shell lvl18 requires level 64. You'd either need a higher level of CWDT, or lower levels of Enfeeble/MS. I believe the ordering is just order in which skills are cast when you reach certain damage thresholds to trigger CWDT. So when you've reached the 528 damage CWDT lvl1 costs, it will trigger Enfeeble. Then the next 528 damage will trigger MS. Again, not sure if that's right. Also still trying to understand the triggering concept of CWDT at different levels. Last edited by crux47#2260 on Jul 28, 2015, 2:26:01 PM

" That makes perfect sense then. I wasnt paying attention to the level of supported gem. I'll switch it out for a lower level and test. Thanks for your input |

I'm using these items as a softcore mace cycloner following your build. Do you think I should go for Iron Reflexes? Also, I'm in the process of getting more optimal gem placement, ignore the shit gem placement ;) Just noticed that someone else posted something similar. I think I'll try it.

do you need a 6L to do atziri or is a 5L kaom's primary sufficient? currently doing 18k dps with 5800 health

" Thanks. 5k life should be easy to get. I'm at 4623 at level 74 and 2 more life nodes to potentially get. 25k dps....well...with what buffs up? Sitting with just my auras on I have 13.8k, but with blood rage and 3 frenzy charges up it's 17.5k and Onslaught makes it even higher. I still have Executioner and Wrecking Ball to fill out so I could approach 25k buffed. Unbuffed, doubtful. Last edited by InBobWeTrust#4837 on Jul 28, 2015, 8:17:36 PM

" May I ask what your gear and tree is? My weapon is better than a Kaom's Primacy, and yet I do significantly less damage than you. |
|
" 18k is with 3 frenzy charges, hatred, HoA, blood rage, and fire golem. I'm using a kaom's heart that is 30% increased fire damage, and in my tree I only got the nodes up to Cleaving for dps. Though I am using a nice gem I crafted :) edit: never mind my question, I found Lighty's answer Last edited by LadyLoriana#6426 on Jul 28, 2015, 10:07:49 PM

Ah alright, thanks. I'm using Hatred and Haste instead of HoA and I'm not bothering with a golem. Too much of a pain to try to keep it always alive. If you're also using Added Fire, Kaom's Heart will add a nice boost to damage on that as well. That is quite a nice gem as well. All of my nice gems are staff related, but my good weapon is an axe. Go figure. Thanks for the info though!

Thanks for this guide Lighty! Wanted to share my good fortune because I have had nothing but poor luck in the past when it comes to sockets and links;
Bought this for about 30c and then spent around 200 jewelers and 80 fuse. Dropped a divine orb into it to move it from a 342 added phys into its current form. Time to start saving for that Kaom's Heart now. Anyway, for my gem plan I think Vengeance is kind of a waste. My three 4 link gem setup will be; Blood Magic - Blood Rage - Phase Run - Inc Dur CWDT(1) - Warlord's Mark - Haste - Hatred CWDT - Inc Dur - Molten Shell - Immortal Call If I can get socketed rings later I will pull Haste and Hatred to switch in Vaal Haste with an Increased Duration gem where Haste and Hatred currently reside. Using a 6 socket, 4 link Daresso's right now, so have plenty of room for Vaal Haste plus a Vengeance setup. Endurance charges are sporadic but I find the high level molten shell + IC are nice and defensive for the heavy hitting physical bosses. Just putting in my 2 cents but the above gem setup I think is nice and would serve most of the player base. |
