Hi, I have been playing a variant of this build as my Delirium league starter and having a lot of fun with it. Now forgive the ubernoob question, but I don't understand why crit multiplier is so crucial in this build? I mean of course crits deal more damage but... I fail to understand why it's crucial. Any light?

Pretty fun build, picked it as my league starter and clawed my way all the way to 36 challenges.

PoB of my current character, https.pastebin.com/B0sFpf1F it's pretty close to being a "completed" build and dumping anymore currency on it would be silly at this point.

Nice dude, im going to copy yours, but change something.
I use Inpulsa and Yoke of Suffering amulet, that way every elemental damage we have can shock and triggers Inpulsa, I think its going to work, what do you think?

Why do you use controlled destruction on armageddon brand if you have such high crit? Wouldn't you want ailments for additional burn damage on brand with elemental focus?

Have you used cast on crit instead of channel?


just questions :D

You've probably mixed up controlled destruction and elemental focus, elemental focus prevents ailments from being applied and ignites aren't even worth it unless you build specifically for them, in our case the brand has combustion linked to reduce enemy fire resistance. As for CoC you'd need to budget accuracy and our crit on cyclone isn't all that high with Martyr of Innocence.
