Does anyone know realistically how many blades should we put in PoB to calculate the effective damage? With awakened spell cascade. Is it 10 or 40 blades?	Posted by kingyang16 on Feb 4, 2021, 12:56:01 AM Quote this Post
Quick question to whoever has experience with it: Is awakened spell cascade worth it/noticable? If my post contains typos, blame my phone and my fat fingers.	Posted by medder666 on Feb 4, 2021, 1:20:40 AM Quote this Post
Its absolutely worth it, I would get it asap. Also from what I read online, 1 bladefall cast is 6 blades. With regular spell cascade thats 18 blades. With awake dd spell cascade thats 6x5=30 blades, this is without unleash. So with even 1 unleash seal its at least 50 blades? Unless I calculated this wrong I'm reading on some reddit threads that its only 5 blades per volley? I'm honestly not too sure either way but I check 40 blades in pob anyway Last edited by Shadafaka on Feb 4, 2021, 4:59:54 AM	Posted by Shadafaka on Feb 4, 2021, 4:15:53 AM Quote this Post

Instantly makes the build feel so much better Just checked the op and with awakened its 25 blades per cast so sounds like its 5 blades for regular bladefall with no supports. So I guess if you wait for 1 unleash seal before you cast again its 50 blades Last edited by Shadafaka on Feb 4, 2021, 5:03:41 AM	Posted by Shadafaka on Feb 4, 2021, 5:01:28 AM Quote this Post

My average hit on POB seems kind of low. What can I upgrade to up that?	Posted by Liquinova on Feb 4, 2021, 8:46:02 AM Quote this Post

I have been struggling with single-target damage like some of the others on here and was stuck on level 91 for a week and now 92 for a couple of days. It seems that every time I make a little progress forward I hit a mob pack that kills me several times and I lose 20-30% and have to start the climb again. Appreciate any leveling advice you can share. Thanks. There are many ways to get to 100 really fast. It just depends on what your goal is... Certain league content like Pure Breach stones, Simulacrum, Legion 5 Way event are all ways to boost your xp really fast. For just "plain mapping", there are also specific methods to really increase your XP per hour... Delirious Maps with Single/Double/Triple beyond with the extra XP bonuses from atlas passive tree points and specific watch stone mods. Using scarabs that add a lot of enemies like Elder scarab, Legion scarab etc... Sextants that also add enemy packs are a big boost as well. It all adds up to significant different in xp between a "plain" t16 map and a "juiced up" t16 map. Mapping fast and not dying are of course obvious important aspects in general. Really appreciate the feedback! I went ahead and focused on getting my avoid ailments up to 100% and already see a huge difference in survivability. Next I will try and add a little more physical to fire damage conversion on some of my items to boost the dps. Hopefully, I will continue the level progressing. I would like to hit at least level 95 for this build to be considered a success in my eyes. Thanks again.	Posted by Ordman on Feb 4, 2021, 9:05:45 AM Quote this Post

I do see a fair amount of people complaining about poor single target DPS initially. I just rerolled this and have 14 ex to gear up with. What should I prioritize the most? I already bought a helmet with enchant. Wasn't sure if I should buy a nice sceptre, or explody chest as first big chunk?	Posted by Ubermonster on Feb 4, 2021, 6:20:25 PM Quote this Post
