Sooooooo VP goodbye
" were talking about ele reflect rares not map mods. " nah, theres ele spell builds that will just total themselves on reflect almost instantly without vp if they have enough damage to confidently clear high maps and kill bosses. Out of 20+ builds I currently have on the go 1 needs instant leech to survive a reflect rare, its the only ele spell build I currently have on the go and it has about 1/3 of the damage "extreme dps pusher" type builds have with ele spells, it has 10k life, its far a from lel I specced a ton of damage lel I rek myself type setup. |

Unless you are running a reflect map, who exactly cares about reflect? Its a complete non issue.

Discussions about balance, VP and reflect are meaningless without a baseline.
People who stop at dried lake and never even notice reflect on their 70 chars should not speak about end game reflect or damage scaling or mob spike damage. If reflect is not a major consideration in your build (that happens to not be a totem or something) then you clearly have never reached anywhere near end game damage with your build.

" Well, I always solo, so it is not an issue to deal with reflect rare as crit EK for example. Now if I do reflect map as crit EK, yea there is no salvation that not even VP is given mercy.

" crit ek is physical, I dont have any issues with my crit ek build either, and when I say physical I mean 50% phys and 50% ele as phys builds tend to be, which is why they dont care about any reflect monsters but cant do either of the reflect maps. Try the same dps on a self cast crit arc and see how long u last against reflect mobs. |

" I just do self cast arc because of and thanks to the staff, I can deal with ele reflect rares. I will probably still not do ele reflect map just to avoid any potential death.

+5 max res, life leech gem, added chaos damage gem, so in reflect terms a 4 link non crit arc with +5 max res and your a lvl85 elementalist with a passive that gives you 50% less reflected damage taken + 8% reduced reflect damage taken after the first hit.
You survive reflect because your probably taking 1/10 of the damage a fully geared up non elementalist crit arc character is taking. |
