I want to make a RF caster - need help
Hi all,
So i never ever done an RF build. I've seen many around over the years but I havent got around to makeing one, until now. Long story short I've made a burning arrow prolif marauder, even tho i like him and all, he is slow, like literally slow due to armor penalties. Also the clear speed could be better. So i want to reuse the char to do a caster. My questions are: What would be a good skill to pair with RF ? RF will not be my main source of damage - this is meant to be a support for main spell as well as defensive aura if mobs come to close to me. So thought about it and there are few skills: Firestormis quite an obvious choice flameblast - i know it could work but i hate the skill incinerate - seems logical as well fireball - eeee..... yeah i know, but i love the good old fireball in the face lastly flame surge - although its more of a single target spell the deeps it can do its insane (possible boss killer?) What do u guys think?? oh btw here are the less important bits, like the tree, some gear i want to use ect:

tree i have planned: gear i would like to use (ignore gems):

possible gem setup (I though about):

firestorm + fire pen + echo/increase aoe - slotted in mace so it gets iron will lvl 30 incinerate + lmp + echo/fire pen - slotted in the mace so it gets iron will lvl 30 fireball - lmp/gmp - echo/fire pen - slotted in the mace so it gets iron will lvl 30 flame surge - fire pen + echo/conc/increase aoe - slotted in the mace so it gets iron will lvl 30 purity of fire and vitality or anger or determination (maybe) - in 2 essence worms rings RF - aoe - increase burning dmg - elemental focus (maybe, idk :/) would really appriciate some feedback if I even going in the right direction, what could be changed YES I support the game, NO I don't agree with many GGG decisions Lab still sucks balls. I miss Zana already. Last edited by Miazga on Jul 21, 2016, 7:20:29 AM Last bumped on Jul 22, 2016, 9:58:05 AM

I prefer to go pure righteous fire just because if u focus on both u gonna cripple both your spell damage as well as RF damage. If u intend to use kaoms heart + those uniques u mention is gonna be tough to overcap your resists. Incinerate doenst work with spell echo and on fire resistance maps u gonna spent half an hour to kill certain rares. Jewels are extremly good and u didnt pick em . Take elemental overload u dont crit anyway . Take elemental equilibrium if u wanna focus on RF damage or u gonna use flameblast. A solid RF build is gonna be much more better that a hibrid. Anyway best of luck.

" thank for the feedback. Although you are most likely right and RF on its own would be supreme, I do want to make a caster that uses the massive boost RF gives. YES I support the game, NO I don't agree with many GGG decisions

The synergy comes from increased overdamage with Doon ceyubiari & Iron Will (330% increased damage from gem & weapon) that applies to RF & your spell. Current links are : RF - Elemental Focus - Incr AoE - Conc Effect FireStorm - Iron Will - Faster Casting - Fire Pen - Controlled Destruction You can also watch zenocide think fire video, he goes through the whole thing from scratch to build.
