Never ever lost so many divines in a single craft as in this damn sceptre right now. 4 times in a row removed the "caster mod" after having to buy so many damn fossilstuff which was really annoying. Lost 3 times at the hortistation, always slammed full suffixes. No idea how much I burned. I will just take a damn chaos rolled szepter and say "f it".

Aye, I had a bad one that I lost the 75% success 3 times in a row. I feel ya there. I ended up finishing it, but spent around 54 div in the process.

The cluster jewel that increased chaos dmg % seems useless as you're doing ele damage and converting it to chaos. The % increased is increasing nothing and you don't do any chaos damage until it's converted which the increase chaos % isn't affecting.

Wouldn't it be better to use a fire damage/elemental damage cluster to boost as that would increase it BEFORE it converts it to chaos?

My POB: hopefully I set it up right

I think I can remove some damage from this and get extra ES as it's low

Turns out, when you convert damage into chaos damage, increases to chaos damage do, in fact, increase your damage.

Chaos damage also boosts poison damage.

They are basically 1:1 in effectiveness.

In my mind the increase to chaos was nill as all the damage we are doing is elemental then its converted. I assumed, without checking, that the increase happens then the convert happens. So no chaos damage before convert meant no increase to chaos damage. But it seems if it does work then the % increase damage is like an aura and it affects the final outcome regardless of the order of operations?

Or am I still thinking like a dummy?

it makes no difference because you're already DOT capped in POB, so it won't reflect your damage increase. It will increase your ramp rate though.
