I've been trying out Blasphemy with Temporal Chains as i find myself only really dieing to melee... thoughts?

Also have a corrupted Summon Skeleton for bosses, surrounds it with 30 other mobs and i just stand there while it dies attacking the skeletons. Thoughts?

I corrupted 6 lighting traps and cant get one that leaves the shocking ground, is it pretty rare?

If you're comfortable with the lack of AoE, sure.

The daily mission gives 250% of the Reputation and Favour of a normal mission, if the Master is triggered in your own Hideout.

if the Master is triggered in your own Hideout.

Assuming a level 72 mission on average, this means you're gaining:

Total = (Your mission * 250% xp) + [(Other Missions * 100%xp) * 5 missions (assumes identical xp per mission)]
= (8064 * 2.5) + * (8064 * 1 * 5)
= 20,160 + 40,320
= 60,480

/6 = 10,080 per mission (averaged).

Can you explain using chain to frenzy? I 5linked my armor yesterday and see no difference. Well, I thought it gives 1 frenzy per chain, so you don't have to spam it on boss fights, but that was my mistake. So why bother 5l for it then?

So the 30% or so Chaos Damage from a Talisman isn't worth it vs the IIR from a good Gold amulet? Good to know.

I may have missed it, but why the change from Mana Flows to Primal Spirit? I find that lately I'm having mana issues, wondering if its to do with the 20% mana regen lost when switching.

This build isn't about damage. It's about balancing MF with survivability and reasonable damage.

The increased DPS you'd get form a chaos talisman wouldn't be a significant enough boost in clear speed to warrant sacrificing the IIR.


As for the switch to Primal Spirit itself, because in 2.0 we went up to Corruption (which was then in the top right), we got more intelligence from the tree, so we needed another place to grab some int. Conveniently, it also added strength which is a minor life boost.

Also with 2.1 we got more mana per level, which was basically like adding free regen. The regen is actually BETTER in 2.1 with Primal Spirit than it was in 2.0 with Mana Flows precisely because of that mana per level.

I'm having no mana issues at all. I can't see your character so I can't pinpoint the problem. Your profile is set to private, but it will definitely be one or more of these things:

* You don't have Soul Siphon
* Your clarity is underlevelled
* You aren't using Goldwyrm yet.
