If we were to truly min-max, what would be our weapon of choice? 20% block staff with +3, multi craft, strength, cast speed and bm, right?

Right. Of course to get the *truly* best in slot staff, you would then annul the multimod suffix and slam attack speed or resistance.

Could anyone explain to me why we use those stats on weapons (from the previous two posts) instead of spell damage % or minion damage %? I'm not arguing I know what's better so please don't take it that way. I really don't understand weapon choices for this build and how it scales our damage and I haven't upgraded my wands since level 45.

Hey Ghazzy.

I had enough ex and lvl 8 masters to craft a +3 Chaos staff for your ED build (which was my league starter). About 60 regals into the staff crafting process, I landed +2 fire gems and just said F*** it, I'll keep going and make an SRS staff.

So now I'm leveling another of your builds.

Thanks. :)

Spent the last two weeks running this hot mess of a build, its insanely slow and very bad, I wish I had the last two weeks of my life back...This build is complete trash, its biggest problem is not how comparatively weaker or slower it is to ANY OTHER BUILD but how you will be absolutely wasted by normal mobs if you don't move at a snails pace with every screen transition... even when you get max res and all your useless unique items you won't make it much deeper in the atlas without bosses taking eternity and dying out most your maps, save yourself the headaches & hassle and run ANYTHING other that this guys build.

Thanks for the guide, I finally took down Shaper today on my first try after farming guardians for awhile :) Onto Uber Atziri!

My current gear:

A couple of notes specific to Abyss league:

1) The abyss jewels are incredibly powerful. 40+ flat life rolls on Abyss jewels seem to give you more health than 7% life jewels, and the increased minion damage rolls are higher than what you could roll before (with the caveat that you needed to have cast a minion spell, but we're SRS so that's a moot point). In addition, you have the possibility of rolling multiple other beneficial rolls, such as extra minion damage, minion attack speed, or increased cast speed if a minion has been killed recently (quite easy to do). I've abandoned a couple of the 4% life nodes in order to get more jewel slots due to this. Here are the jewels I'm running so far:

I can probably optimize these jewels more but these are quite good as is. I can potentially squeeze in a few more jewel slots if I grind the last couple of levels.

2) Bisco's leash is great for mapping but pretty mediocre for bosses. You could just use a rare belt, but since it's very easy to get ele-weakness-capped on resistances I've decided to try something else this league:

I'm still using Bisco's for mapping, but I'll usually hotswap the Abyss belt for bosses (especially guardians) or on more dangerous maps, as it gives ~400-500hp depending on jewel, and quite a bit of minion damage. I've found that this help boss fights quite a bit, as long as I remember to belt swap.

Hope this helps anyone still looking for ideas for this league :)
