would it ever be worth wearing a second essence worm with zealotry? pros: -lots of damage -essentially 100% uptime of EO and not having to ever worry about crit chance mods -life regen cons: -less mana from clarity increasing the reserve pool -opportunity cost from useful stats (life, mana, resistances)	Posted by Yhorema on Jul 8, 2020, 3:18:20 PM Quote this Post

You'd really be boxing yourself in on resists and stats, but it might still be worth it. I am actually running Zealotry instead of Wrath right now for the consecrated ground and crit chance and prefer it to Wrath overall, but running both would be sick. I'll try it later; I think I could afford to lose this, theoretically: Anyone else have experience with this?	Posted by WorderMostFoul on Jul 8, 2020, 4:52:44 PM Quote this Post

You don't need brand while using Kitava's Thirst. Desecrate & Bone Offering will be cast automatically. Quote from guide (gear section): " With this helmet, put Desecrate, Spell Cascade and Bone Offering into the helmet, last socket can be filled with Enfeeble, Warlord's Mark or Temporal Chains depending on which colors you get. Arcane Cloak, Arcane Surge and Increased Duration need to go into weapon, losing Second Wind. so before you have - Helmet: Arcane Cloak + Arcane Surge + Increased Duration + Second Wind - Weapon: Arcanist Brand + Desecrate + Bone Offering with kitava's thirst: - Helmet: Desecrate + Spell Cascade + Bone Offering + (one of: Enfeeble, Warlord's Mark or Temporal Chains) - Weapon: Arcane Cloak + Arcane Surge + Increased Duration ---- " Krepid wrote: ... I'd personally keep your 20/20s and just try to get a vaal arc 21/20. Then from there, just keep your other gems 20/20 until you can afford to upgrade them to awakened versions. There's a part in the guide which shows how to progress your gear and what to prirotise first. As for (Vaal) Arc.. increasing quality does anything in this build? - Arc: +0.5% chance to Shock enemies (Per 1% Quality) - Vaal Arc: +1.5% increased Shock Duration on enemies (Per 1% Quality) and.. since we use Elemental Focus, we cannot apply Shock, so it's useless. Or.. maybe I miss something (quite often in this complex game :D) Last edited by Brimbirimbi on Jul 8, 2020, 5:20:01 PM	Posted by Brimbirimbi on Jul 8, 2020, 5:18:37 PM Quote this Post
Yes, gem quality is pointless for Arc in this build.	Posted by WorderMostFoul on Jul 8, 2020, 5:34:03 PM Quote this Post
I had finished the Acts and started doing maps and my build started to feel like it wasn't going to make it to higher maps. Then I put on Kitava's Thirst, swapped the gems adding Warlord's Mark, put Arcane cloak, Arcane Surge, and Increased Duration on the weapon; and just like that STUFF STARTED EXPLODING AROUND ME!!! BUAAHAHHAHA!! POWAAAAAA!!! Been excited for like the last week to go home after work and splode stuff. THANK YOU FOR THE BUILD AND THE TIME YOU SPENT PUTTING IT TOGETHER! IT TOTALLY MADE THE GAME FOR ME! COOKIES FOR YOU!	Posted by Adamon2 on Jul 8, 2020, 5:56:36 PM Quote this Post
How do you feel about Cloak of Defiance as body armour? It provide mana, 1 extra skillpoint and 10% MOM, is it as good as an offering effect chest?	Posted by Kehaaaaaan on Jul 8, 2020, 6:41:07 PM Quote this Post

I just re-read the gem section, it did not mention which skill and support to awaken first unless I'm missing something?

Yeah guide says Arc doesn't need increase in quality, just level 21. It is the support skills that do. Since I can only level 6 skill gems at once, which ones should I focus on awakening first? I'm assuming Archmage and things linked to 6-link Arc in body armor?	Posted by Caerulus0 on Jul 8, 2020, 11:30:47 PM Quote this Post
