[1.3] FROM PHYSICAL TO THE POWER OF EK ! BADASS OF THE ELEMENTS ?
|
Hello exiles, mates, dudes, bro' ! Sorry for my poor english..i'm french.
I WANT TO GET SOME JUDGMENTS, THANKS TO YOUR PERSONAL EXPERIENCE OF POE, ABOUT THIS BUILD ! THANKS !
Original idea
As a Role player but also as a "I want to be viable" player, I love the skill Ethereal Knives. I read a lot of forum/post/guide explaining how to increase EK's damage. => Physical damage from passive => Spell damage and Cast speed => Projectile speed and damage => Physical damage conversion to Elemental damage => Critical strikes I came up with an idea, build it around : => A Passive with : Phyiscal / Spell / Cast speed / Elemental and some Projectile => An ES character to get Pain Attunement and a lot of auras => A very high efficiency of auras => No crit but some chance to shock (15%) => Dual curses => A lot of damage conversion to get extra damages

Gear require

Why all theses choices ?
DPS based on ?
=> Spell / Cast speed / Pain attunement / Projectile buffs => Extra damage conversion, all buffed by elemental damage and physical damage : ... Physical to lightning : +30% lightning ... Hatred : 40% cold at least ... Added fire damage : 40% fire ... HoA : 15% fire at least => 50% of the DPS is lightning damage buffed by elemental damage => Dual curses => Auras with a very high efficiency
Auras ?
Three different types of auras DPS : Hatred - HoA - HoT TANK : Discipline Mana : Clarity Theses 5 auras gain 70% increased their bonuses effects ! https://poe.mikelat.com/#nFgQyu/FJSaMl3/xJi5Ub/1FOn0h It will reserved 96% of life and 34% + 490 of mana (800 -> 240 mana)
Why Projectile weakness / Elemental weakness
=> Projectile weakness is the best curse coupled with EK to fast clear mobs ! It will knockback/pierce enemies and increased by 30% your damage. => Elemental weakness is also the best one because you deal 50% of elemental damage +125/130% of extra elemental damages !
Against bosses ?
=> Change Projectile weakness to Conductivity => Change HoT to Ball lightning to curse them Thanks for reading, I hope I'll get some replies. Last edited by Justice_ on Feb 28, 2015, 3:30:11 AM
