What do you think about converting physical damage to elemental (I noticed some nodes do that for very cheap, 40% for a single point), a rare chest, or the brass dome?

Convert does nothing for this build since EA only does fire damage. Any added flat cold or lightning damage to attacks is helpful for EE, but increasing the EA fire damage (+ EA levels) is the goal because of flammability, fire exposure, and fire DoT multi on gear.

I'm bad at the game and don't want to flask piano to react to freezes, and ailment dodge chance is only 35%~ or so. I could get shoes with immunity to freeze, and just deal with getting shocked/ignited which isn't too bad I think.

Getting ailment immunity from gear, passives and jewels is a lot of investment. Sure you can get the freeze or chill from the boots, but shocks, ignites, saps, scorch, etc can be really annoying/deadly. The thing you need to weigh is what you will gain by dropping purity of elements; is getting grace or wrath or whatever you were thinking of slotting in instead worth the cost.

Hey exiles, I need your help! I crafted everything in the build. I've spent around 35 divs on average. However, the build is very fragile, and unfortunately, it pales in comparison to the new league mechanics. What updates do you think I can make? I think i need more damage.

And this is the my pob: https://pobb.in/SrwXbtirmPcW

Your spell suppression is at 66%. Make it 100. You're at 4/4 evasion so +15 from evasion mastery for starters. I would tell you to go for hyrri's ire which also grants more damage, but that puts you very low in the hp department... you wanna tweak the build for more hp imho.
But i insist on the spell suppr at 100 : right now, 3 spells on you, one of them will hit you for full damage instead of half, kinda. That's the difference between living and dying.

I see you ar 110/123 although you're level 92 so there are some skill points available or you didn't do all campaign quests. In case there's no point check with the ingame command, or just look at the quests in game.

---

Remove exposure from gloves (useless), add proliferation implicit instead. Especially considering you have NO prolif at all right now !! How do you want to clear packs efficiently ? :D
Really basic upgrade to help a lot

There are 2 jewel sockets available for 3 points (on top of sentinel and between vigor and savagery. That second one would usually be a lethal pride, but right now may be too early : your fuse count (i count 10 out of 22 max !!!) is too low for relevant results for later. Ok there is a value you really didn't "value", see below*

Is mortifying aspect on ? It isn't on the PoB. Probably do the swap between 4L and 6L to put all auras in a 6L (so get rid of culling strike and advanced traps) and :

*ADD PRECISION. You're at 52% hit chance, half the arrows from ballistas don't hit right now, that explains the low fuse count. If you get a charm for no banner reservation, precision could be level 20 (80% hit chance. Or if you get enlighten 4 precision could be level 17/18 (77%/78% hit chance then)
Would still have to work towards more accuracy on gear. For now as a temporary fix 4 points to get weathered hunter nodes, you'd be around 90% hit chance doing this along with precision. Another point you can even get accuracy mastery.

The 2 points on widespread destruction would be better allocated somewhere else, if you're looking for tree points


With enough hit chance, lethal pride becomes relevant again. Look for 12824 one and put in on duelist area.

Get a better ring instead of flammability one. Get real flammability, attached to arcanist brand.

You've got a nice covered in ashes (+totem taunt) charm, so you can replace polaric devastation for something better too.

Probably change your dot mastery for more duration.

Again on gear, several items are "half good" right now. There's definitely a lot of improvement to get from rings and gloves.

Edit : omg, 2 people posted whils i was writing this. Guys, take a look at the last few pages at least, there's a lot of things that we keep repeating, lot of advice to get. Personally won't have time right now to take a look.

I notice earlier some people in this thread were talking about enduring cry, but when I look at people's PoB or gem slots, nobody here uses it. Is it just too much to fit in?

So I've hit 27 million ignite dps, and I'm wondering what I can do to get to DOT cap. I have more than enough fuses (24.91), so I'm thinking maybe swap my attack speed quiver for an elemental damage quiver, but unsure of what else I can do. This is my 2nd league, and by far my strongest build I've made. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
