[1.3.x] Zma_PWned Strike [1.3 Uber available]

2 litesabr: projectile damage is not included in the tooltip lightning strike. my tooltip dps (near 485k in ho) show only melee hit dps, if one of the light. projectoles hits the target, it deals damage = (485k - 30%)=340k
and about PCoC, with my new tree, as you can see in the screenshot, I have almost 95% crit chance, on this basis PCoC in this variation useless

Yes, you're right that it is not included in the tooltip. That is what i said already. However, your calculation of projectile damage is incorrect.

"

An initial melee hit with the keywords: Lightning, Attack, Melee
A projectile attack with the keywords: Lightning, Attack, Projectile

Increasing the melee portion of the hit through melee-exclusive means such as Melee Physical Damage will not actually increase the projectile damage; the projectile damage is not "converted melee damage", a common misconception. Do not be deceived by the tooltip DPS of this skill which will change if you apply a melee-exclusive modifier; the tooltip DPS only shows the DPS of the melee portion of the attack and things that modify that, but not the projectile part of the attack.

The melee damage gem does NOT help your projectiles. This means you are using 6L for melee and 5L for projectiles.

you're right, but I mean that the main damage comes from melee attacks (atziri/map bosses/rare mobs) and projectile attacks only help with fast clean map/location, as melee splash (+deal bonus damage for single target)
You are also right about calculation of projectile damage without melee phys gem (it's my fault)

327k tooltip, then 1 projectile deal near 229k

You're getting closer. :) Between Multistrike and strength giving Melee Only bonuses, the damage is roughly 6/7 of 229k = 196k

Really nice build, curious if you never feel the lack of some defence? Perhaps with less optimal gear (like 99% of us have)?

For example:
http://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/503727/

That build has block + spell block + more evasion + blind (if you use BoR).
This build is focused on the fast cleaning map/location
It is not a tank build, in this build main defense is a high damage (150k+ dps enough for it)
the faster you kill an enemy, the less damage he can cause you. Just need to get 4k+ life to avoid one shots, then acrobatics / evade / block / Life Leech will help you survive a few punches

I'm going to make life based crit build after tree reset and your seems to be perfect for me - currently I'm playing something similar just non crit. Do you have any troubles with Palace boss and mods like dual boss, -max, gmp? It's the only boss I can't kill using my build :<

hello, difficulties can be only with -max resists + ele reflect. Dual boss is not terrible, I tested this mod, bosses are frozen all time
