Hey my dudes, how does this build fair against Uber Elder?

And any tips for what I should focus on getting next?

Cheers

How are you leeching mana?

There's a single mana leech node that is taken early on the tree.

Looking for some help for my next upgrades. I have some currency to work with but I'm unsure what would be the best bang for buck at this point. I was considering upgrading my belt to an abyssal with life + resists so I could trade out my chest for a Shroud of the Lightless. Tips/suggestions?

Hi, I'm not the expert here but when I was using a similar setup to yours I got a big damage boost by changing to signal fire.

from there I slowly upgraded to the Abyss Gear which is a bit more pricey. which gave me more survivability.

then I started upgrading all my jewels - more damage + Survivability.

Also, start getting the flasks once you have the currency. It's another big damage boost.

Thanks for the response and suggestions. I'm not sure I understand the math behind the Signal Fire. How does it work in conjunction with the 50% phys -> cold from Hrimsorrow and the 40% phys -> cold from Winter Spirit?

So the way elemental conversion works is a bit like below (from my understanding):

let's say if we have 100 physical damage, we have 50% conversion to fire, and then 40% conversion to cold and 10% converted the lightning (for shits and giggles)

This means now you have 50 fire dmg and 40 cold dmg and 10 lightning dmg but will now deal 0 physical (nice for physical reflect maps)

Here's where the fun begins.

if we now look at Gain 35% of Physical Damage as Extra Fire Damage from signal fire. This takes the original 100 phy dmg, and take 35% of this and add on to the fire dmg.

now you have 50+35 fire dmg, 40 cold and 10 lightning. (that's where the boost is)

with winter spirit node on our tree taken - now we are doing 50+35 fire, 40+20 cold and 10 lightning

Throw in Atziri promise flask effect - thats 20% more converted to Chaos dmg AND you have 15% on your total elemental dmg.

Sounds op right? Imagine now we have an item that adds physical dmg like a Jewel.

lastly.

In terms of physical to elemental conversion (not gain), you can have parts that adds up to more than 100% conversion. The game will trim it so that they all "scale" into 100% total.

If we have 90% conv from phys to ele (Signal Fire + 40% from tree) are phys reflect maps safe to do?

If we get 100% conversion from signal fire and phys to lightning gem, what nodes should i aim for?

at 90% conversion, I don't really think so, because the map still reflects 15% of Every hit and your TS scatters far and wide.

if I'm using my voidflechter setup I have 90% conversion and if the mob density is high enough it straight up kills me.

So I guess the answer is probably no.

If you are running physical to lightning on both skills - Barrage and TS. I guess you can potentially free up the winter spirit node (three passive points) for something else.

I personally like the nodes because extra 30% cold dmg but if you really want you can take some of the Global physical damage increase nodes like will of the blades or projectile dmg like sniper.
