[3.5] The Blinding Blizzard - Whispering Ice CI Elequisitor - Viable For Everything
" Yeah, tried to look at kelvyn's character in the POB, and with all those corruption on jewellery, he already have over 2k int, and effective dps with conc effect is more than 45k... Damn, it's also with the fact that he is wearing astramentis. If you add those "godly messiah" shaper amulets with dmage per 15 int, and increased attributes, then his dps will be about 55k. There were never such crazy numbers in history, so yeah. P.S. By the way, is it normal that exalt already worth 120c, and still keep growing? I can't say that i'm playing in every league, but situation right now seems to me quite unusual to say the least. |

" I have a reasonable PC and it doesn't like spell cascade either. Any time it interacts with ground effects, you are down to 2 fps. I don't think you should use it in high level incursions anyway though. Better to have higher damage over a smaller area, because now you just have to wait for it to cast rather than for it to kill things. Mostly they're in relatively small clumps anyway. I don't bother with incursions where the mods are too against me though. Ele resists isn't a problem as I am running a fire pen gem instead of lifeleech, but obviously temp chains or defensive combinations of mods are out. Double beyond is also out. |

" My level 96 Scion from Standard stacked with legacy gear (ES legacy gear + Legacy Pyre + Legacy Perandus + Emperor's Mastery + Emperor's Wit jewels + Shaper amulet with % increase damage per 15 intelligence) stand on a whooping 2370 Intelligence and the PoB Shaper DPS tooltip is 31K / 46.5K trash DPS on top of 12.2k ES. Probably the ES value will be hard to beat due to no longer ES legacy gear being available but the tooltip DPS is easy to be surpassed this league with some investments in corrupted rings/belt/Astramentis with % increase intelligence Yeah the numbers seem to go insane this time.....

" Btw, Silence is a curse. Treat it like any other curse: Warding flask. " The power creep is real. I hit 2k Int so easily in this league! I've only had 2k Int in Standard before. Running Flammability instead of Enfeeble full time now, only switching for the top bosses. And with Combustion providing another resist debuff everything dies faster than ever. Uber Elder is no longer something crazy. The guy who killed him with this build 1 week ago for the first time is now running a service :) | |

How much ES should i have when i make the change to Chaos Inoculation?
I currently have 2400, and kind of "maxed" gear atm, everything is crazy expensive. Not sure how i will reach 5-6k ES :/ | |
" You REALLY don't have maxed gear. Sin Trek has 10% more move speed, 75 more ES, and up to 5 more int than your current boots. It costs 1 jeweller. You can get 3x your chest piece' ES while retaining the int for 1 alch. At the moment, there're some 156 ES gloves with 42 int for 1c. There's a 160 ES, 39 int helmet for 1 alch. |
|
" Not the same guy, but I'm kind of in the same boat as him. Yeah you can find those individual items pretty cheap, but they have nowhere near the right sockets. How do you recommend the best way to go about that? Just buy them and then try to get them right yourself? |
|

Well, 4 sockets is 10 jewellers, 4 links is 5 fuses from master crafting. Your EV is better than either of those if you manually roll, particularly if you have a 20% quality item (that guy does not, but it's what your blacksmith whetstones & armourer scraps are for).
One 6s item vendors for 7 jewellers, and they're really not that uncommon once you're in low level maps. If you're not able to 4L your stuff by level 69, 9 times out of 10 something has gone really wrong with your loot filter. I had 6s whispering ice via ~200 jeweller attempts by the time I was 75. Getting the right colours is harder, but not much. The below took me about 500 jewellers, which is SUPER under EV. If we expect it to cost 13 jewellers per 4th socket attempt, and if we say it's 1/6 to roll a red socket, our EV is under 100 jewellers. Even at 500 jewellers, it's pretty easy to get this. There's a guide for how to roll 4 off-colour items in the first couple of posts in this thread. One benefit to this build is that we don't need jewellers or fuses very much (less so now that we're talking about 6-link chest, but no need to worry about that until the 90s). We can sell fuses, chroms, jewellers via bulk exchange trading on the POE site, and we can afford more stuff than most builds doing the same maps at the same rate as us.

Gz to 100 !!!
As every leage this thread is really useful and i like that kel and other help new people. As for the sockets and colors. its a pain and you must life with some restrictions. Normaly i have at this state a 18 % 6 s staff and 5 link chest. this time i used over 500 jeweler and have no staff nor chest. and for the last red socket in my gloves i used til now 130 jew to 3 sock 4 sock ... and so on and had only green and blue sockets. so rng is a bitch. this league is crazy as fuck. the loot also with temple and corruption and incursions exploded but in the end i had NOT one good drop, nor corruption. no ex drop no good item drop. on the other side the equip is really cheap for this stage of league but rng is fucking bad. so make things who work and wait to get better gear or good drops to craft it by yourself |

I should note that it is generally cheaper to just buy 6s WI staves or 6s chests than to try to socket them yourselves. Note that 210 jewelers is about 30 chaos.
@ichi -- sometimes it's worth just paying 120 chrom up front for 3r sockets and focus the jewelers on getting the 4th color (which I can typically do within ~200 jewelers at the worst.) Last edited by Graiaule on Jun 16, 2018, 1:18:57 AM
