Snapshoting RF - (whats the best way?)

Hey Guys!

Right now im snapshoting RF with 2x Redbeak and a Jack. After testing a bit it seems to be the Setup that does the biggest damage.

Here are my questions:

-Does RF damage Count from the actual life Status or from the Status it have been startet on?


-Does the 40% fire damage affect RF in any way if I start it with the Jack? (I guess it doesnt;) )


-Is it better to use 2x Redbeaks or 2ex 100%+ increased spell damage?




So what is the best way to start RF?

-Is it better to use 2x Redbeaks or 2ex 100%+ increased spell damage? Spell damage does not affect RF




So what is the best way to start RF?


See in bold, this info is actually available with a simple google/forum search :)

Everybody is saying a different thing. I would like to have an anwser from a developer here!

Cheers!
Uh? If you'll only be satisfied with a dev answer I don't see the point in making this thread.

Everything you asked is either in a dozen other threads in the forums or it can be found in the patch notes. What cannot be found can be tested by yourself. If you want dev response I guess it would be better to contact them directly.

GL!

spell damage doesn't affect RF

2x Redbeaks on life life is more DPS than Searing Touch (low life is a pain on life builds)

Searing Touch is 6L if you really want to...

RF - Conc - iAoE - Burning Damage - IIQ - IIR

Can swap on a Carcass Jack and get the iAoE off that if you really want.




Personally I just use a 3L in Redeaks so I don't have to swap armors

RF - Conc - iAoE

I'm also low life ES.

Why is low life a pain with life? You snapshot RF with it, you don't stay low life.

So? any 40% aura with blood magic will get you to low life, you can easily snap shot in at the start of most zones, and in a map you can clear an area before leaving so you can do it again when you come back.
