Witch - [2.2 Video Guide] Beginner's Build: Dual Flame Totem, Blood Magic Chieftain [Atziri & HC/SC Viable] - Forum

I am currently using the following wand: I am now asking myself whether an apep's Rage would be better and if so, how much or if I should wait until a better rare drops. I cant find a good wand DPS calculator to identify the differences myself and I dont want to spend 50 chaos just to see that my rare wand is better than apep. How do I find out whats better?

Hello, I got a little question guys. I found a jewel http://tinyurl.com/nj8xm2v I'm kinda new to the jewel thing and i dunno if it actually makes it like i allocated the points or not. If so, what should i do with the points i didnt use in the circle of the jewel. Sorry for the dumb question i really feel like it does nothing at this point. Maybe after i go BM it will ? Thank you :D Last edited by skinnyD_D on Oct 3, 2015, 4:54:43 PM	Posted by skinnyD_D on Oct 3, 2015, 4:54:14 PM Quote this Post

I just replaced this wand with Apep's rage, so I can say that Apep is definetely better than yours IGN: Rosalind_	Posted by Jack89 on Oct 4, 2015, 5:38:38 PM Quote this Post

Thank you :D That jewel should not be used in this build. Before taking Blood Magic it takes away from life and gives mana, which is the exact opposite of what this build wants to do. After taking Blood Magic it only takes away from life since the character no longer has any mana at all. " aristona37 wrote: Why don't we use +2 fire gem staves? It looks like it would be possible to do, but the added survivability gained from a shield's defensive stats are better than the offensive stats a staff would give. Also, both scepters and wands can get +2 Fire Gem level so rare staves don't really grant anything unique in that regard. The 6 sockets a staff can have wouldn't grant much of anything over the 6 armor sockets due to how only Flame Totem really gets much benefit from it. Maybe if you're using Kaom's Heart and feel a staff is needed for the 6 socket but that case seems outside the scope of this guide.

Can someone suggest an alternative defensive CWDT setup to Imm Call/End Cry for this build? Gave Arctic Breath/GMP/Inc AOE a try and so far, meh. Actualy, this artic might be better if I left the CWDT at level 1 so it goes off more often. Still looking for other suggestions though.
