ice spear sounds interresting, but not sure if reflect will be a problem :o


yes, if I want to use ice spear I would really want to take the long range advantage and focus on my dps. I actually borrowed a ice spear gem and ran a few high lvl maps, hiding behind my team mates basically sniping every mob with 1-2 shots. Its really fun, but once you hit a reflect mob=death lols
Aren't people typically placing ice spear on a totem?
That means you won't die from reflect.

its a good idea, but as I explained earlier, if you use dual totem you are leaving yourself vulnerable because you cannot leech ES or regen ES naturally (constant dmg by RF). Possible solution is if you get hit>run away>use flask to dispel burning, turn off RF>regen ES>turn on RF. This is actually viable is you play as a party, but its difficult if you are soloing maps.

I still need to figure out my passives and other 6pieces of gear, but I'm trying Fireball first as I already have quality lvl20 FB FirePen etc.

did a quick test

problem solved with summon zombies as the meat shields

turning RF on and off isnt a big deal when I was testing the build

the problem I had when I was soloing maps was that me+2 totems=3 targets...I get hit quite a lot

therefore I used zombies to further protect myself and it worked out pretty well.

Not sure if the RF buff continues onto the totem...need to get back on that

reflect is a big problem with EK/fireball/ice spear...high dmg spells etc

EK is just NO

fireball I have no idea, would be great to hear from you later

ice spear should be fine, but I dont really like the long cast time+higher mana cost was a bit annoying when I did a quick test with a few map runs
1) You can cast rf with +2 to fire (and +1 to all if you can get it on the same piece), then weapon swap and keep the effect.

2) Theres a life regen node 2 points away that you can get if you have trouble sustaining RF due to bad gear or stacking iiq/iir (It's next to body and soul in the templar area.)


ps. I run dual spork totems and use a ruby flask as a mini ES pot :d

also conveniently makes fire damage do almost nothing

I'm using that 1% node, I'm at like 770HP 7500ES I'd be toast with RF and Blood Rage up w/o it.
