" Mike798POE wrote: Love the build. Unfortunately I rip'd from Hardcore Proph to an effing delayed corpse explosion Strongbox(sad times), but I love it so much ima just mess around on Standard until the next league probably. I switched a few things...went further south into the ranger tree for the large projectile dmg node there, and got a few more ES nodes instead of life. I'm at 4.8k Life, 2k ES, and my non-buffed/frenzy charge DPS is sitting at 11.6k. It gets up around 15-16k with full charges and pretty much decimates LARGE packs of mobs with lightning fast speed. There is nothing more satisfying than casting 1 ED/Contagion and whirling blading through a map as it chains through almost 50% of it. Oh and I forgot to add the fact that being able to do literally ANY map mod is amazing. Phys/Ele Reflect, Enfeeble, Temp Chains, Vuln...all of them at once with Nemesis/Beyond on it...so nice. --- Question Ghaz.....could you make a tree that would be like full glass cannon mode for this build? Glad you like it bro! :D Well, if I were to make a glasscannon with this I'd make it low life with an Occultist multi-cursing heretics veil approach but it would still be rather tanky due to ZO regen hitting ES :P " Raging_Sloth11 wrote: Opted to switch to this build, shortly after hitting lvl35, I was using a reaver build and got quite bored. I unfortunately have a ways to go with respecing, but in the end I believe it will be quite worth it. So far I'm really liking this build. Looking forward to pushing through to end game with it! Highly recommended build! I loved playing it, I still do, even if I have budget for "more costy builds" I usually prefer to go back to this one due to how effecient it is :) " Wicirelllis wrote: How is good ed/contagion as leveling skills? I mean how is it fast? Can feel a bit clunky till you get used to it, once you do, it is stupidly fast. " Wicirelllis wrote: Ah, i miss something. Want to make ed pathfinder in 2 day flashback. So no tabula (till merc, will farm aqueduct), no 20q, no elreon jewellery. Also maybe there is any other way to level? I see this possible ways: Until 12 lvl dual-wield cleave/caustic arrow/spark/freezing pulse + fire trap + flame totem. After 12 level - continue cleave/bow and lightning arrow/blade vortex/firestorm) + fire trap / flame totem (optional). I see no reason as to why you would want to go Pathfinder with the build? :S Literally no gains for the build to be a Pathfinder compared to Occultist and/or Trickster. " Tenembre wrote: sorry, probably asked before, but what are the gems best to 20% quality? I'm pretty sure Contagion is #1 choice, but i was looking for additional gem choices as well. Contagion is by far the nr1 choice. After this it really doesn't matter what you chose, what ever gem that provides the most damage increase for you. If you don't need dmg, putting quality on Faster Attacks for the WB is going to speed up the clear speed etc etc. " Tenembre wrote: Ahh on the support gems for ED, what are the ones that will give the best bang for the buck?

You guys are great with the speedy replies. We gotta great community on this thread.	Posted by Tenembre on Aug 7, 2016, 3:44:37 PM Quote this Post
Great build. Using it to great effect. Got lvl 80 so far and clearing T5 maps with ease. Clears very fast (6k unbuffed ED dmg) and relatively tanky (4100 hp, 400 ES). Haven't even added vaal haste to the build yet which will only increase the clear speed. Had difficulties with bosses like Malachai and also had difficulties with the labyrinth however. Overall, very good value in terms of currency spent. Thanks.	Posted by frozenmelon on Aug 7, 2016, 4:39:13 PM Quote this Post
Wither Totem is the key @Malachai. Use it to make the "bombs" on the floor detonate, so you have more room to move safely and avoid all the bad things he throws at you, especially in the extra chaotic phase 2.	Posted by djnat on Aug 7, 2016, 6:08:03 PM Quote this Post
Loving the build so far! What are the best enchants for helm, gloves and boots from Lab? Went to look at the list of available and there are a ton and some were confusing as to what it actually did. Just wanted to know the key ones to look for. Again, great work on the build and I am having a blast! Safe hunting all	Posted by Swerv on Aug 7, 2016, 8:39:54 PM Quote this Post

Safe hunting all Cheers! :D Anything that either ups your clear speed or damage output really :P Helmet Enchants: Essence Drain Damage = Great enchant for damage increase :) Wither Duration Decent for extra damage buff vs bosses. Contagion Duration = It's something I guess... Not even close to needed. I think those are pretty alright for helmets. Boot Enchants: Increased ATK/CAST from a recent kill Great clear speed increaser! The other boot enchants are kind of "mjeh". Glove Enchants: Chilled Ground = Extra layer of defence. Consecrated Ground Extra layer of healing defence. All glove enchants but those are based of your phys and/or spell dmg and/or minion damage. So they are not that effecient but the glove enchants are really w/e for this build tbh. I think I would pick the chilled ground effect since we get life drain from the Essence Drain already.

Ghazzy, if you had the currency are their any BiS pieces to grab? Not mirror type currency, but 10-20ex or so.	Posted by Mike798POE on Aug 9, 2016, 11:36:47 AM Quote this Post

I like this Build very much! But has someone an Idea how to solve mana Problems? With Grace Aura i don´t have any Options with Regeneration? Edit: Problem nearly solved: First travel to Weave the Arcane Ascendancy Last edited by Kesch on Aug 11, 2016, 4:00:44 PM	Posted by Kesch on Aug 11, 2016, 1:09:30 PM Quote this Post
