Can any of these +2 skin of the loyals be used or is the dps loss too high I should stick with my current +1 1b,3r,2g?

1r,5g
Or
2g,4r

This build is too popular, the one I was eyeing with 1r,1b,4g got taken, maybe I should have stayed awake so I could buy it when the seller came online, that was the only one with a ok price tag, everything now is like 10+ex which is too high for me

haha

I'm pretty sure I was the guy who took that +1 4g,1r,1b :) this night Sirus dropped me 12 ex gem.

Not only I've improved my dps but also made it possible to respec 3 reservation points from bottom-right and use it to grab 3 mana nodes next to it (ik we suppose to use it but mine 3 points are in minion dmg next to EE) and when I have 40 ex I'll swap to jewel node to put watcher's without resigning from my rare which gives me 52% res...

Skin +1 market is really dry atm, its either insane 80ex+ chest(150 in some cases) or some combination of 3b.
Also Shaper's Touch +1 went from 7 up to 10/11.

I'm not even close to 5m dps, i'm only 1.5 on my setup. Running +2 and 5g will net me 1.3m dps on maps and 2m with 10 stacks on boss. I'm not sure if lowering my dps by 200k on maps is worth it?

just imported your profile and a +2 chest with 5g and 1r is about 2.75m boss dps. clearing trash without vile toxins (so technically a 5l) is 1.84m

your current setup is 2m flat. so you are 200k down on trash - kind of but not really because you will still have poison stacks sometimes - but 750k more dps on bosses. tradeoff sounds worth it to me but then again it depends how much you are spending on the chest because it's not the best endgame option for sure.

one thing i will say about going 5g is that you can drop the 3 point mana reservation node if you get one more jewel with a 1% corruption. the golden rule is pretty cheap. depending where you spend it that's like 800ES or you can drop conquerer's efficiency for a better jewel for a bunch of ES

So I dropped a cortex map earlier today and since I just hit lvl 97 \o/ I decided to try and run it (never ran it before)

I'm a happy camper, funny enough just bought mine a few days ago, switched them around since it has better duration.

Hey to all,

I managed to get a skin of the lords with mortal conviction but with 3R/2G/1B,
My problem now is to be able to reserve as more mana possible to increase my energy shield,

I can use all auras without any problem,
Only dread banner will reserve some man but not enough,
I think better to go back to my old chest skin of the loyal,

Any thoughts, help?


Ty in advance,

Just uncheck some mana reservation passives. The bottom 3 is great to save. Dread Banner is also great. Play around in POB and see how many points you can save.

It is a great chest until ultra luxury upgrades.

It didn't happen to be 6ex? if so, that was indeed the one I was eyeing desperately to get haha. Since your so rich now maybe you can donate your hand me downs to me :)

Maybe my maths is wrong but from my PoB LI fork

pumping my gems to 20/20:
Turning off shaper dps I do indeed get 2m (trash mobs)
Turning on shaper for bosses I get 1.56m (shaper boss)

For a +2, with 5 greens (HoAg, pierce, vicious, vile, hypothermia at all 20/20):
No shaper dps, 0 vile I get 1.73m (trash mobs)
With shaper dps for bosses, and 10 vile, I get 2m (shaper boss)

so -270k difference on trash, and like +440k for bosses

It's barely noticeable. Unless my PoB things aren't ticked right, or metamorphs and map bosses are "standard bosses" and thats what you are using in your calculations?

You may want to sell or divine, if you run it in PoB 10% damage is by far better than the high crit. Duration is a bonus.

Hi All, would someone mind checking my character out and letting me know if I am on the right path or doing something incorrectly tree/gear wise?

I ran through PoB to compare with author (lvl 92 Tree). I added some nodes he had to make it more comparable but couldn't reach the same DPS as he has even with all the config/calcs correct. I did also make some gem adjustments which would be mostly negligible.

Mainly I feel like my DPS sort of isn't there when running T12+ maps. Not that its bad per-say. Killing metamorphs can feel sluggish to me at times, and I don't expect to 1 shot them.

Anyway, if it seems I am doing everything properly then great. I plan to anoint ammy with Diamond Skin, grab a cyclopian and then add a +1 shapers touch or lvl 4 enlighten tonight when I get home.

Bottle faith will have to wait since the price keeps fluctuating and I didnt feel the DPS boost was big enough over other upgrades.

Thanks.

maybe you don't have chilled ticked for hypothermia? or you didn't corrupt the chest for 2 more levels?

theres the pob i'm looking at with your character imported, switched to a +2 chest with 5g1r

Hey Crazy, thanks for providing so much feedback to everyone.

Does the +2 Aura gems count for HoAg levels? Or only the +1 all skills gems corruption?

Edit: Never-mind, I realized your empower is getting to lvl 5 with the +1 corrupt on skin which gives you the lvl 31 HoAG. I'll leave the question up in case anyone else wonders the same thing I was (which was basically how is he getting to lvl 31 without a +2 ammy).
