[3.11]QUEEN OF NECROMANCY - STRONGEST ZOMBIES EVER? 55M+ DPS 7K+ LIFE MAX BLOCK 90% CHAOS RES
" You trade +1 to all socketed gems on mace for +2 to spell skill gems. Both give +2 levels to zombies with empower socketed, but none of the support gems will benefit in the staff whereas they do in the mace. The benefit to the staff has golems, spectres, AG, Flesh Offering, etc getting +2 levels. I actually think this makes the staff better, just not necessarily worth the added cost. For physical builds, definitely go mace due to maim vs fortify. Last edited by Aldonés#1294 on Sep 12, 2019, 4:58:50 PM

" Any reason you don't use the chaos gloves? |
|
How do Grips of the Council compare to our other glove options?

" I think we are getting to the point where you are already instant phasing Shaper and Eldar so what is the need for more DPS? At this point my build will be running level 27 Skitterbots (26% Chill and Shock) and Sand Stance (15% damage reduction) yet still torch everything I come across (Pre Stack 19 Stormblight Grenades with 33% Aura buff between phases for 76% increased damage taken).

Maim is useless if we use full chaos conversion, right?
|

Hmm fortify on the staff should be superior to maim on mace if you're doing chaos conversion with 4 white sockets on driad gloves. Not by a lot but yeah, I guess you have to factor in that the staff is harder to craft as well as getting 4 white sockets on driad gloves.

" Maim as a buff is a slow. Maim from the support gem grants a more multiplier (used) and enemies take increased physical damage (not used). Same deal if maimed from flesh and stone. |
|
" Not sure, cuz maim gives 30% incresed physcial dmg (before convert) So if i understand right it gives profit even with full chaos/magic conver builds. |
|
This is correct. The 30% more physical damage will apply, however the "enemies maimed by supported skills take 14% increased physical damage" will not, since it is not physical damage.
|
|
This would mean that Maim gives 30% and Fortify gives 34%, though we can get perma Fortify by Kingmaker (and free up a socket because we don't need to link it to leap slam).
So in my opinion even with full chaos conversion the Maim weapon is still the weapon to go, though there might be a slightly better alternative. |
