[3.25] Cassie's ⚡ Galvanic Arc ⚡ Inquisitor | 40M DPS | League Starter to Ubers & 40/40 | SoK-READY

Hi, Cassie. Overall build is super fun, but ran into the problem with survivability. On t16 maps I catch one hit too often and instantly die, lol.

Can you suggest what needs to be improved/replaced?

PoB: https://pobb.in/zx3T7qgsWrF0

P.S soon I will finish crafting the cluster jewel, but as I understand it, it will only increase damage, but not survivability

Hey, sorry for bothering again. But could you have a quick look at my pob?

My survivability feels good now but sometimes my damage feels lacking like i'm hitting with a wet noodle and i don't mean on bosses necessarily i don't have the dex req to use the shield tech mentioned in the guide. but bosses aside, sometimes it takes 2 casts of arc to kill a normal pack on a 2-3 mod t16.

Seems like you're missing a lot of smaller things like jewels, gem quality and levels. It really adds up, getting four budget jewels (from zero jewels before) gave me 30% more damage.

Looks like you need a bunch of smaller things, mostly levels and jewels. The whole "kill things before they reach" you aspect applies here too, since you're missing quite a bit of small damage items. However, I suspect it's mostly the map mods or mechanics you're running that are really hurting, rather than your gear. Check the map mods section of the guide.

Good day! Used most of your tips - thanks! - although it is still limited in currency, but little by little I am saving up for both a helmet and a timeless jewel; the chaos resists on the belt and boots are too expensive to upgrade yet, lol. Otherwise, I really like everything so far - but just recently I killed the red boss on the quest after t16 - and noticed that the damage is still not enough. I played his meteor charades four or five times. What would you advise in the short term to focus? And is it worth replacing the gem with crit damage or crit chance on armor for lightning damage?

Timeless jewel and amulet anoint for now, I'd say. Don't be discouraged, you have a long way to go on damage gear.

Thanks for the advice. I managed to update the equipment (thanks to the mechanics of the league).

P.S. build with anninilation light is no longer relevant? And without the mageblood belt? I was lucky to get it, for a few tens of currency to make 6l and 6s.

I've removed the non-mageblood AL setup because it wasn't really worth the hassle without MB resistances.

With mageblood, annihilating light is insanely OP. It's about double damage compared to a perfect staff.

Hi Cassie, loving the build so far. I've gotten quite far for a league start (in my standards). Survivability is great, which is a big win for me.

Anyways, I was wondering if you could give me some advice on where I should be spending my currency to do more damage. I have about 10 divs sitting in my stash, but I'm scared to spend it myself because some of the stuff I bought for 1~3 divs didn't have much impact on my DPS.

Thank you!

Whispers of doom anoint, helmet power charge charge corruption, flask improvements, maybe power charge rings after that.

Hi There ! Thanks so much for the build, it was a lot of fun during leveling and early maps !

I now have almost all the budget setup except for pc rings/helmet, and I am sort of hitting a wall now : the damage is good but I feel I am lacking in survivability, I often get on shot on t16 maps or legion bosses. Am I just bad at dodging AoEs or am I missing something ?

Here is my pob : https://pastebin.com/Bj7txS7g .

I hit the 5k es and 100% crit chance but I feel something is lacking survivability wise.

Thanks so much !

- You need more chaos res on gear so you can unspec chaos nodes, that'll boost your damage a lot.

- You also need to replace your budget ring with gifts from above, which once again requires more resistance on boots and belt, so more upgrades there. (Your belt also doesn't have defensive explicits like +ES)

- Your flasks aren't finished, so you're missing poison and bleed immunity.

- You can tempering catalyst your amulet

- Pay attention to map mods, you might be running stuff like -max res +ele damage or something. There's a map mod section in the guide. Map mods that essentially one-shot ANY build in some cases.

- It's also just general mechanics, this is not an immortal build. I usually don't run legion.
