[3.4] Teleports Behind You - Poet's Pen Lightning Warp & Arc, MF / Facetank t16 / Shaper / U. Elder

" The helm like ch3cksum mentioned But also, your gems are all messed up. By level 93 you should at least have the barrage setup correctly - the life gain on hit setup is critical. Are you also running Clarity? If so, check that you have the correct ratio of life/mana in order for MoM to work correctly. Last edited by YT_HB#0097 on Jul 3, 2018, 4:13:09 PM

is it worth investing in this build ? would i be able to make U elder ?
|

" I think so, yeah. As long as you have IC setup and the gems (especially barrage and LGoH) setup as the build states then yes. You should be able to do almost anything except the map mods that it can't handle (ele reflect). |

I really like this build - I finally found something i like.
Quick question - What is the idea behind Shock Nova, when should you use it and with what? :) |

First at all, thank you for the guide. I am playing this guide now for over 2 weeks and invested about 20ex into it. One thing I still can't get managed: Kill high bosses. T15/16/Atziri etc.
I was watching your boss kill videos and I did not see, your mana went down. Why not? You say to use "Mind over Matter", then the mana should went down to zero once you get hit my a boss, shouldn't it? And how important is this life mana relation? I have over 5k hp and less than 2k hp. Is this the problem? But still, why your mana not even went down a bit? Thank you for advice. Last edited by the_s0urce#7434 on Jul 4, 2018, 3:16:29 AM

So I played a poet's pen build before, the typical VD/Bodyswap thing. And I hated bodyswap. Just like I hate LW. I dislike that flicker strike playstyle. What can I use instead of LW?
|
|
" So i brought your char in PoB and the first I think noticed was that you have have 5k life with 1.6k mana, which is quite low. You need approx. 2.3k mana for optimal MoM usage. Also your arcane surge is lvl 20, which requires 400 mana usage to proc. Next, you don't need levels on barrage, frenzy,swift affliction or flame dash (increases mana cost) they are only for utility. |

I understand you disliking flicker, I do too, but mainly because of the lack of control. Lightning warp feels very good, it's super super fast and you can control exactly where you land.
There isn't much alternative for movement skill, at least that you can socket in one of the wands. Since you are dual wielding wand, the only other movement skill you can use is flame dash (which really really sucks). |
|
" I do not care about having LW or a movement skill at all in my pens. I wanna replace it all together in my mapping pens, with something more suitable for mapping than ball lightning. I just can't deal with jumping around, it pisses me off. |
