Thoughts on Yoke of Suffering? Or am I better off using a crit multi amulet?

Hey, a mate of mine switched his dual gain extra damage as lightning/cold ammy to Yoke and said it's better and a rather big hidden boost in damage. As per PoB with some of the new shaped dagger mods, my lightning damage only accounts for 7% whereas cold counts for over 70%. If I understand that correctly shock's based on the amount of lightning damage that particular hit did and that amulet should be pretty badass since we go for full conversion front loaded with cold damage.

We prolly do like ~4% to 8% atm under normal settings through crit, Yoke should allow for 30% plus. According to my mate, he actually ends up killing faster where it matters i.e Shaper, Guardians, Elder, etc. What he also said was that Yoke's benefits doesn't show up in POB as its all hidden. I'm gonna get one and test it out. This is my forums only account. My steam linked account is as ShadowGenisys. I'll keep you posted when I test this out for myself. Pity, I just crafted a pretty sick ammy lol.

Hello, I'm thinking about starting a GC miner and found this helmet, seems like a perfect fit to the build? Am I missing something? Thanks in advance for opinions!

Pretty good as a starter helm but what you'd want if you're not going to be using a 6linked chest (totally viable btw) is one with:

Socketed Gems Supported by x LVL Remote mine with the bonus mod as "Place an additional mine"
The place additional mine is a global bonus which drops 4 mines per cast instead of 3 mines, 33% overall damage boost per cast. With the Saboteur Ascendency on a 20% chance per cast, you get a chance at dropping another for a total of 5 mines, it's awesome when this happens, whole screen just melts.

and

Socketed gems Supported by x LVL Hypothermia
Since most things will be chilled/frozen, you get quite a bit of non tooltip dps here.

You don't really need inc area of effect mod on there since we get plenty of it from using an armor where most people use carcass jack and with that helm, you don't even need a 6 link, a 4link with whatever setup you want will do or even go Kaom's heart if you got the means for it.

You'd need a way to convert to 100% cold damage and by far the best one (QoL with AoE increase) is the new Glacial Cascade jewels x 2.


Gem links would vary if you manage to score the above helm.

If not, yours should be fine still for every content.
