Enki's Arc Witch Memorial Page

i gave up at lvl 60, i was dieing 10times to every single boss

Any thoughts of using Coward's Legacy and Atziri's Reflection combined with Pain Attunement? It would require our belt as well as swap a dagger for a shield, but would allow us to pick up 30% more damage for 1 passive. Both are ES based.

Edit: Probably not. On further contemplation, you would reflect Vulnerability back to the enemy, and I'm not sure if it would override Blasphemy. It almost certainly would override any other source of curse.

I've switched to occultist and I'm using power charges, not curses. My dps is way higher than the elementalist build

Hmm, I'll look into it. As Enki said, Profane Bloom could replace Arc explosions. I'd probably look into low life though (I really, really want to finally find a viable Arc low life build, lol). Basically it would take a 50% reservation aura + Blood magic + Shavronne's Wrapings (body armour) and allow you to pick up Pain Attunement.

You're missing lots of mobility from going with sceptres and only having Flame Dash as movement skill, and one of the big survivability factors of this build is its mobility. You also need Zealot's Oath to make things smooth until you have another source of ES Regen, and your flasks need some work. The dualcurse setup you currently have also doesn't work as base curse limit is 1, so only 1 of them will ever be active. Last but not least, try out the CwDt + IC setup i've added today.

Thank you very much for all these responses. I for one really appreciate it.

I see your point about having only flame dash and appreciate it. I slotted the whirling blades/fortify setup last league but rarely used it as I don't really like the mechanic and tried to stay away from the mobs. I understand your point here though.

Yes, on Zealot's Oath. I saw that in an earlier post and also you saying so in your Twitch stream. I'll grab it. I started on day 1 with your initial build and had to use respecs to go into the new one without the reduced mana reserve nodes so a bit of playing around there. I'll grab this once I have a point.

Dualcurse. Yeah, I was afraid of this and I originally had IC in there but the colors with the Goldrim didn't work out. I'll add back in thought. When I had it before I still had issues but I'll keep working at it. :)

IC-Adding back in. Also trying to craft some better weaps.

Thanks again for this awesome guide. It's challenging this league but what's life without a challenge? Learning along the way.

I don't know if that is common knowledge, but I couldn't use all of my three auras when I put one of them in a Dagger with a mod "Socketed gems are supported by level 18 Faster Casting". That increased the mana reservation. So, there's that.

In the Flask section, you say not to use Sorrow of the Divine. Does this still apply now that zealot's oath is part of the build? Is there another reason it shouldn't be used that I'm missing? Thank you!

can someone put out why the old version is not playable anymore?

Which Jewel Slot is best for placing the Transcendent Mind ? I just placed it in the Jewel Slot next to Instability to get 2,4% ES Regeneration. Any better alternatives or do i forfeit to much intelligence?

Hi all,

I managed to get lucky enough to roll this shadowstich playing SSF, with +2 to duration gems (thus affecting arc as long as its vaal'd). I'm playing a slight variation of this build (flame dash only movement skill, using a shield instead of dual wield).

2 questions:
- How does that chest compare to inpulsa's and is it worth still chasing it with chance orbs?
- What recommended gem setup to run with 3B/2G/1R? Haven't got spare vaal orbs to keep rerolling it just yet. I have empower (level 2) available for the red slot but just unsure which 2 blue support gems and 2 green supports are best to run.

Awesome build as always Enki and blasting through with it. Went level 66 to 84 yesterday without a single death!

Edit: nevermind - got it to roll 4b/1g/1r so running it now w/ unleash, echo, leech, hypo, and empower.

Still curious if it'll be worth me burning chances to chase an inpulsa's though.

Out of curiosity, is Tiger Hook a better choice than a dagger given the loss of the 20% extra elem as chaos? Just seems like a really significant amount of "more" dmg to lose. But i don't know that much, and was just wondering if someone could explain the benefits a bit further. ty

Did you find Unleashed better than Controlled so far Enki? And why if so?(:
