" vorkosiganhs wrote: Thx a lot for the guide. Hope you will get back your YT channel anytime soon. Just a note in the guide: the leveling up process is not as smooth as I'd expect. Looks DoT does not scale very well at the beginning. So, if somebody interested, Tytykiller did a speed run (with all skill points) that can be used for this build. He did the transition to ES+Contagion after Act5 or 6. Full run is available here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Re6CgQzCeWc. Cheers. Meh it's good enough tbh, cba to switch mid levelling. Check out ziz's "everything explained" thing where he levels from scratch with EDC, it's smooth enough	Posted by Shuggananas on Mar 12, 2020, 8:30:32 AM Quote this Post
RaizQT made a long video some time ago showing this specific guide when he lvld from scratch as ED/C as well.

Maybe you should update the blighted oil section. I think "corruption" is better than the two you listed overall. I also recommend diamond skin anoint early on. I'm making a quick and dirty notes for levelling (as ED-C) if people are interested, I'll post it when I'm done. Mostly covers what skills to get and when, and what quests to avoid to not waste time. edit: here's a first draft, I'll take suggestions if you have any :) Spoiler All acts : https://i.redd.it/du93b2ribdm41.jpg Vendor : check for chaos dot multi or +1 chaos gems wands, check regularly (refresh on level up) SILVER COINS : wait for level 35 BUY 6 ESSENCE DRAINS TO LEVEL THEM UP (6 transmutes, expensive early on) A1 Hillock kill : blight (single target help, vaal blight from side area asap) + freezing pulse Breaking some eggs : contagion (drop freezing pulse) A dirty job : SKIP The Caged brute : flame dash + void manipulation Siren's cadence : essence drain A2 Intruders in black : summon skitterbots (better than malevolence for a long time !) Through Sacred Ground : SKIP Sharp and cruel : faster casting, controlled destruction (VENDOR) Bandit : Help Alira A3 Lost in love : Despair (self cast on rares and bosses) + malevolence (don't use early, skitterbots better) A swig of hope : SKIP A fixture of fate : Swift affliction (ED), efficacy (ED), intensify (contagion) A4 Labyrinth : before kaom/daresso. Swift killer (damage++) The eternal nightmare : Increased area support (contagion) A5 The king's feast : SKIP Death to purity : spreading rot A6 CAP FIRE RESISTANCE Bestel's epic : SKIP The cloven one : do later possibly A7 The silver locket : jade flask Labyrinth : after giving fireflies to yeena. Patient reaper (damage++) A8 Doedre : RIGHT PATH A9 Fastis fortuna : SKIP A10 Map to Tsoatha : SKIP Labyrinth : before kitava. Ghost dance. Mapping Annoint : diamond skin -> corruption Labyrinth : Respec ascendancy if needed (escape artist) before uber lab trials done Bandit : respec to 2 passive points when resistances capped Last edited by Shuggananas on Mar 13, 2020, 6:40:10 AM	Posted by Shuggananas on Mar 13, 2020, 5:50:24 AM Quote this Post

I think you're mistaken, they just give chaos dot multi while corruption gives the same dot multi and 30% total chaos damage Dirty techniques just gives boosts to bleeding and poison, while hunter's gambit gives boosts to bow Wiki is displaying the old version of dirty techniques below the current one Last edited by Shuggananas on Mar 13, 2020, 2:44:50 PM	Posted by Shuggananas on Mar 13, 2020, 2:43:40 PM Quote this Post

could u make a comparrison with the occultist variants? i imagine it would be more dmg for less suvivability? preferably on the front page because thats prolly a thing alot of ppl want to know before creating the character. nice build so far and thanks alot	Posted by Tartoffel on Mar 16, 2020, 6:55:24 AM Quote this Post
