Pros of AFD over ICD:
+ tooltip dps + split damage more evenly between physical and elemental, making you less vulnerable to phys reflect. + a red slot give some versatility. It can be changed to LgoH, WED, IIQ, etc. depending on skill used or situtation. Cons: - elemental damage is easier to resist than physical so the bonus on tooltip doesn't mean much - less leech I'd say definitely go for icd on your single target but be careful with phys reflect mobs. On AOE, ymmv. Also consider increase crit chance instead of crit damage. Chances are it will give you the same dps bonus, but you will get more consistent crits.

If the witches watching watches watch the same watch while you watch which witch watches which watch, they switch watches; then, the watch switching witches watch which watch you watch. Watching witches watch watches is not for the faint of heart... Last edited by Panini_aux_olives#1967 on Oct 15, 2015, 6:29:22 AM

" On Frenzy only. " ICD usually gives less DPS tooltip than ICS. But that doesnt mean it provides worse clear speed for AoE skill - usually, it's quite opposite. i'd used neither for 5-link SA or TS, though. My choice is SP.

Hi all
Feeling like a beginner but having fun with this spec. Got a few exalts but unsure of what to upgrade, or if i'm doing anything terrible wrong :), any advice would be greatly appreciated. My current gear:

Things to change respectively(my private ranking):
1. Quvier- you should drop something twice better in 1h, or buy it for 5c or so. 2. Belt- get some rustic with hp 3. Bow- it has really low base dps plus bows have got cheaper lately. 4. Chest- mayby even most urgent but most expensive as well. From what u craft on benches I guess you feel you don't do enough damage, so take care of it first. I'm also kinda sure that flat phys would do better job than that lighting one. Burn all the orbs! Last edited by skuadak#1891 on Oct 15, 2015, 11:44:02 AM

" You have several unnecsary gem links. -If you use assassin's mark, link it with coh, and either herald of ice/thunder -Do not use enhance on your herald of ash, it increases the mana multiplier, taking more out of your mana. -Vendor your lvl 20 increased duration along with GCP for a lvl 1, 20 quality gem. -You don't need support gems linked to your golem, it's just there to help you boost dmg -You have faster attack and ppad linked with herald of ash, not sure why since it does nothing. -Get a lvl 3 enlighten gem for 2ex or something. Link it with herald + hatred. -Since you are using TS, use your 5l set up for single target, like frenzy/puncture. -You don't need temporal chain on your unset ring. You don't need unset ring at all actually for TS. I might have missed some other points. Maybe someone will correct me. IRL stuff Last edited by Ayvi#3869 on Oct 15, 2015, 1:14:21 PM

" Sorry, i actually meant the opposite. ICS usually gives less DPS tooltip than ICD. But ICS also gives more reliable damage (which is great VS packs), more frequent freezes/knockbacks and refills flasks quicker. If ICS gives more (or even equal to) DPS tooltip than ICD, then ICS is no-brainer choice. IGN: MortalKombat

UG. This guide makes it sound so easy. Finding evasion + life + resists on my gear is not easy (mind you I am in 1M league so I assume its much easier in Standard?)
Regardless, I just bought myself a 5L harbingers and my dmg is starting to get respectable (imo) but damn Ive got like 2500 life and Im level 77. Its rough staying alive and even rougher when beyond is active :p |
