Time for a life lesson I lesson lol


Not much of a lesson... crit multi is giving more DPS than crit chance since I am not using crit multi jewel. If I finally roll 4 blues I can craft chance on to the wand.
Question:

When using Path of Building to check how much DPS an item is gonna give me, which fields should I be checking? I mean:

What's my DPS increase gonna be? I assume 24.1%, but also it says average damage is gonna increase by 9.4% so it makes sense too. Will getting that item increase my DPS by 24% or by 9%? If it is 24%, how come my average damage is 10% higher but my DPS would be 24% higher? I don't get it.
Are you guys prioritising WED or crit multi? Trying to figure out what I should be looking for on a new amulet
This is my current one
Can someone take a look at my character (DarkStarQueen) and tell me how I can improve it? I'm just doing Tier 10-11 maps and I just don't feel like it's smooth enough, especially for the amount of currency invested so far.

Life: 4.2k - this has been ok so far due to nice evasion/flask/dodge values but will probably RIP soon enough

Barrage Damage (with auras only): 20k - i don't have the helm enchant, is there another way to get an additional projectile outside of Dying Sun?

KB Damage (with auras only): 27k - this feels decent so far but nothing special

I realize my gear isn't great, but just need to know what direction to go next

ok so your chest needs 1 red for WED gem, which is huge.
have you tried just using piscator instead of your wand? might be a dps boost
get a diamond flask, should help a lot with dps
after that, get a +2 barrage devotos

your tree looks good.

The least you could do is read the original post... I took one glance at your gear and already knew the problem. You're missing the most important link on your barrage, your boot enchant is terrible (i think thats the normal or cruel lab enchant??) get the uber one. Your gems aren't fully level'd or have quality. Your wand has the wrong base. Please go back and read the actual guide for at least 30 seconds before you post
So I've made some adjustments to the build and I still don't understand why my damage is 20k for KB and 23k for Barrage. This is with auras only in hideout.

I do need better jewels and level up gems more, but I don't understand how OP has 50k damage on both Barrage and KB. That's more than double.
By the way, how good is this compared to a Piscator's? http://puu.sh/xrT9O/fca8934315.png

They're going for like 25ex, worth paying? HSC.

By the way, what's the best enchant for Kinetic Blast?

Pretty sure it's either 40% extra damage or the 75% extra explosion. I'm inclined to say it is the extra damage since it adds 40% straight damage, while the other even if it was a guaranteed extra explosion it would mean it just gives 25% extra damage since the basic spell creates 4 explosions?

Hey guys,

Here's my passive tree, I'm level 75. I had to spec over from another build that I didn't really like as much. I pretty much have the bottom filled out but the top working on. Is there anything I should respec to help? I am having a little trouble with some of the tier 2-4 bosses (could be gear related)
Thanks!

I've been tinkering with PoB for quite a while now, and I noticed that without really good opal rings, it's very hard for a wand to replace Piscator's. It's just way better to invest that ex into +2 rat's nest. Judging by your question about KB enchant, I assume you don't have it yet.

I wouldn't even bother with enchants for KB, just go for 40% barrage damage if you're poor.. they go for ~60c most of the time - and it's a decent upgrade til you hit that 2 proj barrage on your second Rat's nest - or until you can afford one.
