Shavronne's Wrappings broke the game. New build, here's why.

I havent the Chest but i simply changed CI for PA and used Righteous fire -> Result my FP Dps was almost tripled!
To go low life you just have to reserve your hp with vitality aura and bloodmagic... with Zealoths Oath you negate the drawback of the Damage from Righteous Fire completly if you have enough ES and a lvl 20 Vitality Aura. You burn for 100% of your hp per second actually if you have Purity at lvl 20 its just 20% cause resis at 80%... and with Chayula which you need you have around 500-550 HP so the burning is almost nothing :-) In addition you can use Blood Rage too for the 3 Frenzy Charges... I was farming with those adjustments docks a bit for testing purposes, its kinda fun one shooting rare Mobs with a crit :-P |

" wtf Oo survability is low of any CI character? i guess you have no idea, seriously! with 3k es in a 70+ map maybe you are right, but with 6k + es and armor mod granite flasks which i can use almost permanently my survability as a ci cold crit witch is not less than of other builds |
|
" your survivability is good as cold crit cause u can freeze everything ... not because of CI Dogs Summoner - http://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/885199

with ghost reaver and life leech and a decent amount of damage your survability would be good with other ci builds too. you just have to work around ci to make it strong...

" Uh, if you don't have the chest, and you have zealot's oath, how exactly can you run bloodrage? You're not regenerating any HP, and since you don't have the chest, bloodrage is taking your HP. |
|
" you missunderstood what i have written^^ sorry for that i just meant that this is possible... but my dps was tripled with just PA and RF ! |

Thought about this too, should be insane DPS, but you will get a lot of drawbacks:
- your ES wont regen anymore - Chaos DoT will dmg your ES and you dont have flask to counter that effect, nor regeneration only your lifeleech from gem (because regen already counters RF). With -52% chaos res my bow duelist has problems to counter some chaos DoT with flasks and 5+% regen and 7% Lifeleech (Or am I wrong? Chaos dmg does dmg your ES with that unique, doesnt it?) -> So you will need a lot of chaos res - Without Vaal Pact and only the leech from the 1 gem, I dont think you will leech fast enough to be able to kill ele reflect mobs and perhaps even not enough to survive high chaos DoT - You will need the two ignore freeze and stun uniques or you will get perma-stunned/freezed all the time - Rare armors could have a lot more ES and resists - Low Life builds light radius penalty is pretty annoying I think I will try a melee low life build with that armor because you have easy access to unwavering stance, Vaal Pact and more leech (even without being forced to use leech support gems). But first I have to get such a thing - anyone wants to sell it^^ |

" With Zealoth Oath and Vitality Aura you will have no drawback in terms of ES reggen, with a decent amount of ES you will regenerate more than you would lose with the DoT from Map Mod or something else! And the two uniques are must have like in every CI Build Last edited by Hulio225#5985 on Mar 11, 2013, 8:17:40 AM

RF can be turned on and off (essentially) with a "cures burning" flask. This way, you can sit idle on chaos DOT maps without much worry. When you are ready to resume, just cast RF and continue. Fire Resist Flasks may also be used to lessen the degeneration burden.
You can use a Totem in conjunction with your own damage to kill Ele reflect mobs. Also, keep in mind that your own Elemental Resists are sitting around 85%, which is a large chunk of reduction. I'm going to actually need to build this character before I can really pass judgement on this, but the fact that fewer passives need to be spent on damage and more can be spent on ES means that you may still net an equal amount of ES, despite having about a 400-500 less ES potential on the armor. Those are my thoughts on your points, but you do raise valid concerns. |

It's funny that I see this thread since I am already running pretty much the same exact build on my new witch. I can give you some info on needed gear if you want since you plan on doing it.
For the people worried about survivability, don't be:) 6% ES regen from shield and also more ES regen from vitality aura make up for RF and BR easily. Can't be stunned, can't be frozen. Life leech skill gem with this high dps keeps you easily alive. lvl 73 build so far main items needed: rest of items something like this: Last edited by shirusen#2754 on Mar 11, 2013, 1:16:49 PM
