Why shouldn't i use added fire dmg to spells?
If you do that, your Ball Lightning will trigger Elemental Equilibrium for fire damage on your enemies.

This means that instead of them getting -50% to fire resistance, they'll get +25%.

Your Scorching Ray does not hit, so it can't trigger Elemental Equilibrium, but it wouldn't even get the fire damage for the same reason (You can only add damage to hits).

Quick update:

I'll completely revamp this into a Mind over Matter build tomorrow, Atziri's Foible makes a budget version really easy and is probably the best for endgame aswell.

Respec shouldn't cost too much, the skill tree will be very similiar to the one seen in the MoM section.

Edit:

Done. :)

I removed it temporarily because my character currently isn't a great example gear-wise.

I'll try to find some items that I can link, maybe from across the forum.

Meanwhile you can check the Path of Building link for gear.

Really nice leveling ring, but if you use it with the Abyssal Jewel later it will convert your cold to fire damage, which means you'll buff the enemies' fire resistance with Elemental Equilibrium.

Which is not a good idea.


PS: gear is up

a fellow explosion addict, i love it!

*ahems* Megumin picture aside, good use of dyadus and inpulsa's. Might i also share with you my explosion satisfaction build from this league? Hot Flashes

Also, added to the listing.

Cheers

i really want to look into making this an auto build
My first idea was esh mirror with vinktar to make us of the shock reflect, and maybe use abberath's hooves. with added lightning gem and the flat added abyss jewels and the ramping added lightning you could prob have enough damage to start the chains by just walking.Heralds are also a thing to consider since we are a elementalist. Ball lightning could still be used to start the chain. This build made so many ideas pop into my head and its 10/10 in the looks category. Will be leveling it and trying the stuff i listed above

Afaik the only thing that can cause the explosions to cause a true chain is something like Herald of Ice to spread shock.

There's a couple of other builds in the forum using Inpulsa's aswell, some even fully automised with Heralds.

I don't know if you could fit all of that into a Scorching Ray build though, seems like that would make it rather clunky.
