[2.6] The Curse Whisperer - Tri-Curse CI Whispering Ice Elementalist - Viable for Everything
" orb of storms primary purpose is to trigger EO, yes. applying the curses by blasphemy and/or some form of cwdt setup has the advantage that you dont have to stop and cast orb of storms in the heat of a bossfigth; and you dont have to stop and cast it during ordinary mapping while you dont need the extra damage. so for specific boss fights, it can make sense, but for most boss fights and for generic mapping, applying the curses via orb of storms is inferior. |

" you are using inc aoe while the damage numbers we post are usually with conc effect. multiply your 3k damage with 1.7 and you end up around the 5k mark, which is where most builds with your gear level are. when you fill out the gaps (40 int missing on chest, damage multiplier gems at 16/0 instead of 20/20 and so on), you will reach the same damage as those who post their almost perfect gear in here. |

" You have to pay attention. They are not hard to notice now, since they are pink. And your resists are not maxed, are they? Bearers do about 3k damage of their element in high tier maps. It's not an instant rip with max resists, unless you just stand there and eat all explosions. " You are lv 70, that's 22(!) levels below me. That's a whole of a lot of Int. Your gems are lv 16 too. You also took the Pendulum before Paragon. Do Merc Lab and get Paragon. You are completely fine for lv 70. Just keep going and finish the build.

" Yeah my resists are only around 150-160 in hideout, so i try to avoid any ele weakness map. Also while is true that they may do like 3k damage, when you have a nice pack size on the map, you can sometimes end with like 10 or more mines that are pretty much over each other. But anyway thanks for the hint about they being the pink ones, guess i will have to keep a eye on what color is the things i'm killing and try to long range those instead. |

for people saying there is no damage - you're right, the scaling is horrific imo.
for people doubting the leech or stun immunity of berserker - writhing jar, just for those special occasions. - since you have leech on ascendancy you don't need to face tank mobs with warlords; that, coupled with flask nodes and an easy +5.8% regen, makes VP not that mandatory. (you could even use blood rage to generate frenzy charges) for templar i'd do a hierophant - 3 totems, life+mom, ZO, +1 duration cluster, with selfcast firestorm + leech on bosses/harder mobs. note: i had this idea with EE: imo, the falling pattern on those shards for icestorm is identical to the one on firestorm so you might be able to abuse EE somehow by alternating between those 2.

Hey, i was wondering if elemental damage increases DPS. I've used a belt that had 10% ele damage but it didn't increase on the tooltip, i know the tooltip is really bad for actual DPS on the skills but was unsure if it actually affected it in anyway.

" bonus to "elemental damage" applies to icestorm. what you had on your belt, however, was "weapon elemental damage", which only applies to attacks, not spells. thats why the "weapon elemental damage" on you belt didnt affect icestorm tooltip. |
|
" Ok, thanks. Also, do you think Elemental Equilibrium is dertimental to the build? It seems to get nullified when ever you have cast an ice storm after using, say an orb of lightning. |
