How can I know if I will be able to craft the trigger mod on a wand when looking in poe.trade?

Don't use poe trade - the official trade site is so much better and up to date these days.

On official trade state that you want the item to have 1 open suffix and then you know you can craft in it.

So Al-Hezmin dropped this on me today. Is this usable for this build or is there better things than that ?

That isn't that good. The malev thing isn't that useful as it might first seem.

Right. Figured it wouldn't amount to anything but was worth a try. Thanks ! :)

I have seen several different thoughts on what can be on your trigger wand in order to NOT screw up EE. For sure you can't have "adds x to x cold to spells" It seems that some folks have "adds x to x lightning to spells" on their wands. Is having either of the "adds" (lightning or fire) to spell damage bad for EE? Only thing I could possibly see is that having those might/would overwrite the cold exposure (-25% cold res) from Frost Bomb when it auto casts on the trigger...thanks in advance

Im having a problem with my build
I seem to be easily 1 shotted and DPS seems lacking.
I cannot work out why..
I crafted and upgraded some gear recently and it feels like I have lost some DPS.

What am I missing??

Suggestions Thoughts please

Are you sure that that is the correct profile? You character doesnt show for me.

edit: i can just click on your profile in here, it seems you had the wrong link posted. Most of your gear looks pretty good, but are you resistance capped? There should not be any issues, but just to make sure, you are not trying to facetank stuff, right? You want to run through with your phasing and drop your vortex. Nothing should really be hitting you.

My Vortex was able to tank a "die beam" on aw6 Sirus, and it basically never dies ever, during mapping or delve. Although PoB only shows me 600k Sirus DPS.

Thanks for the reply
No not facetanking and doing as you say run through and dropping Vort.

Sirus I die to the beam one shot even on A5
Will have to look at my damage mitigation I suppose?

Perhaps get the deflection nodes on the right first.

Nope, added Lightning or Fire damage doesn't hurt EE for us.
Whatever elemental damage hits our enemy provides increased resistance to that element. Any element the enemy is not hit by then lowers the enemy resistance. So getting hit by lightning and fire is irrelevant as we're only interested in Cold damage.

In the case of Frost Bomb, upon casting it starts pulsing and that applies the debuff for cold resistance. The pulses do not hit so it doesn't impact EE. The final explosion does hit so will deal both cold and say lightning damage, but if you're wand is triggering one of your lightning skills then the EE is overwritten quickly and we get our cold reduction again.

The only slight downside those affixes have for us on a wand, is that they take up the space of something that might have otherwise been useful for us.

First things first: thanks for the awesome build, I am following it for a while now.

The question that urges me since Delirium: using a 4 passives medium Cluster with Brush with Death and Vile Reinvigoration, what is best for the small cluster: Energy from Naught, another Vile Reinvigoration or another Brush with Death, when it comes to the defensive part of those notables?

I wasnt quite honest. I had a corrupted blood jewel. That makes worlds of difference.
