i have a spare green socket on my 2nd reduced mana 4L, and I could easily put Haste in there, recolor the Alpha's and be done with it.

On a sidenote, what would you do as a next step on my gear:

6L-ing the Coil costs A LOT, getting ALL 20 quality gems isn't a huge boost i'm noticing... i'm puzzled.


6L the coil :/ Apart from that, the shield could be a lot better.

Your flasks are weird as hell as well, I can't live without instants :D


I have an instant! I like the 2nd one to be a "slow" flask for single target on bosses that don't do much DPS on me where I can't really leech completely and i need it as a buffer, it works wonderfully...

Mostly maps end-bosses, that is, or maps where I have to use LGoH cause of 50% slower rec or +mob resistances ;)

You're saying that the shield could be a lot better, but... in what terms? I mean, i'm currently navigating PoE and the BEST i can get has 120 evasion more than mine (they all have crap hp and resistances) and there is exactly NONE for sale that improves both life, resistances and evasion (in Ambush league that is)

Ok, SO i'm a little new to PoE, but how essential do you see all those HP nodes? Is it worth the tradeoff to drop some of them and go for Iron Grip, picking up the last remaining mama node along the way like this?

Or is this just too much of a glass cannon?


Iron Grip isn't a DPS boost for us, we don't have phys damage.


Am I misreading the skill? It seems to add the attack damage boost from Strength which is always applied to Physical damage, to Projectile damage. Does Spectral Throw not benefit from this?


Physical damage makes up a very, very small portion of this build sadly. The bonus will be +1% increased Projectile Physical Damage for every five points of strength.

As an example, I'm currently sitting at 325 strength. After all auras my physical dmg adds up to 45 damage. After Iron Grip it would add an addition 65% phys dmg making it 74.25. Elemental damage on the other hand ads up to 2,247, adding more elemental damage with weapons would turn out to be more DPS overall.


(NOTE:: math is pretty rude and based off tooltip but gives an idea)

600 eva is on the low side, this was my shield in Nemesis when I played this build -

Just looked into the new dev manifest for the next patch:

Vaal Haste

Thoughts?

OPOP, if it's anything like Vaal Discipline, I think we can expect a temporary ~20-30% AS boost.

Would this new Uber Atziris mask be a good update for the Alpha?

Mana Reservation doesn't work with auras so no - Alpha's is superior.

What that helmet specialises in is for CI builds who struggle with the mana costs of skills and can use an Empower gem for their skill.

With 5L, 11k is all your going to get. I really don't know why you quality your Blood Magic though... :/
