[3.4] Fire Nova Mine - Perfect League Starter - Low Budget - FAST - HC Viable

For anyone who is in doubt for what items to look for or just curious to see gear of "higher" level FNM here's my character sheet, currently lvl 88

6k HP 1.5k ES 18% phys red. 2.1k avg. dmg tooltip with crit (still saboteur tho)

done all bosses up to T10 so far with no major trouble (be weary for canyon + quarry + underground river boss though)

+good clearspeed (quicksilver spam + vaal clarity 100% uptime - constant life/ES regen while spamming)
+decent survivability
-phys hurts
-bit slow movespeed without quicksilver charge



im gonna test out assassin tomorrow maybe, and post back my results, tried out assassins mark instead of temp chains, felt really good with more frequent crits however the slow from temp chains felt MVP for just fast clear maps

Don't use it mate. Ignite chance does nothing for us since we use elemental focus support gem and 25% fire damage is probably worth it for 1 point but not for 2 or 3 which you have to sacrifice in order to get a jewel slot - and then I would probably just use a good yellow jewel.

why ele focus gem? if you are going crit the ignites might be useful.

So I snagged this

for cheap and wanted to know if Galvanic Hammer would be worth trying. It says +25% Elemental damage with maces, but it doesn't specify "with weapons" or "with spells" like other nodes do.

Galvanic Hammer won't work for us. It doesn't provide any crit for spells. You have to really make use by attacking with the weapon in order to receive the crit. Also, I am sorry but your weapon is really not good.

The most important stat for us is "elemental damage to spells"

Like 5-110 lightning damage to spells , or 38 - 49 fire damage to spells, 20 - 50 cold damage to spells

So you have to make sure that the "to spells" stands behind the elemental damage. Your fire damage on your weapon will only work with attacks like molten strike for example - so when you really swing your weapon in order to deal damage.

actually the %increased fire damage should work fine for the mines.

Yes, sorry I didn't mean the % fire dmg , ofc that will work for the mines. I meant the 19-33 Fire Damage. My bad.

Definitely one of the most comprehensive guides I've seen on here. Will update on results when I get this build to end game. Keep up the good work!
