Spellslinger cast order and some tips

I think equilibrium would be quite messy also, particularly with Discharge in the mix. Since there's no cast order, what matters is which spell actually hits a mob first. There may be some window of opportunity for your spells to hit in sequence, but it's going to be an awfully small one.

It looks like you're running 2 Discharges, and that's likely to be problematic. At least where the second Discharge in the Poet's is concerned. It's likely always facing +25 to fire res, and if your first Discharge was the last thing to hit mobs it would be hit with +25 light res as well.

On the other side of that, if your Spellslinger Discharge frequently hits mobs before Snap or Bodyswap do (which is entirely possible)--it's going to be faced with +25 to both fire and light res due to the Poet's Discharge always being cast last.

I'd suggest replacing that 2nd Discharge with something else. Probably a cold spell, just to increase the odds of your primary Discharge not running into res problems.


Thanks for your advice!

I have made some tests and it seems that with my current setup ice nova hits after first discharge because if I remove discharge from Poet's any hit ends up with 2 power charges. Without nova it becomes 1 power charge which comes from discharge.

Removing second discharge would significantly lower damage output and almost halve amount of health gained for each hit. Maybe if EE doesn't work with spellslinger spells I should remove EE and add elemental vulnerability somewhere.

Yeah, removing EE is likely the best overall solution if you're dependent on having 2 Discharges. With the way SS works and with your setup, I can't imagine EE being reliable. It's more than likely doing more harm than good at least some of the time if not all of the time. Having that Bodyswap in there doing fire damage is also probably screwing with your Discharge cycle in some way. Definitely worth testing without EE, at least.
I have a pretty good sense of humor. I'm not German.
