There's really a post just above you that includes a link to a search etc for body armors...

Also, get Awakened Burning Damage gem. It's 5 chaos.

I went to buff health reg so i could use rf permanantly to boost dmg instead of the self curse.

I invested a lot in RF when I was 92. It skyrocketed my damage, but the cost was not worth it. By the cost I mean ~ 2000 ES. That's 1/3 of our entire EHP.

This build has tons of ways to get "more damage", but limited ways to get more EHP. I would suggest you forget abour RF (unless you want to use the socket just for the vaal).

Running rf cost me only about 600 es with the current gear.
I considered it to be much more of an ehp loss to get rid of the golems and glancing blows, cause thats what most of the cowards build do.

I tried to simulate in pob just going for reduced spellslinger enchant and -mana reserved shield to get malevolence going. (That was without a +skills +effect wand as i found them to be very cost heavy)
And that was really not that big of an dps increase as i thought it might be. And therefor loosing the golem boni seemed to be not really worth it. (didnt safe but i think it was like 1 million more dps) Also had to get rid of glancing blows to specc some -mana reserved.

only other way i could think of was getting more gem lvlz on chest. Though mine has +2 already...

>Is it worth 100ex and dps loss

I do not know, it is good ehp boost considering that any corpse using effects including those nasty sonics the hedgehogs that shoot quills on death are simply gone now

it is also the only way to reduce lag in fractured maps, instead of 500000items and 10000monster corpses you need to render just the items now

But to be honest i could handle it before just fine, purely because i let the resolution to go to poop minecraft level and my cpu is godly.

I can not tell monster from wall at that resolution, but our build allows us to not need to.
At harbingers or after clicking ALT i would have solid game freeze for x seconds tho. It got better now.

i just got a cheap one, i have it in my inv and equip it when those spiky beasts appear in a map. Progressing to lvl above 94 i find somewhat impossible if u dont have a way to deal with those....
and just swap back to dps wand for the boss....

Hi, been using this build recently, found it really excellent for clearing maps. But boss dps is pretty bad for me. My FW dps is about 1m, is there anything I am missing on? https://pastebin.com/XVJMXfvf

Just started playing this build on my first SSF character. And I got to say this build is disgusting that it should be banned

Consider upgrading your gloves to something with higher ES and life. This could be relatively cheap upgrade for quite a chunky survivability upgrade.

Consider getting rings with more life. Flat life or %life as implicit.
Based on your current corrupted ring, I found this for about 15-30c with a bit more life. Assuming the strength and cold res on that ring is a must keep.

And other ring can get a bit more life too, assuming the resistance and strength are must haves on those ring

For overall survivability, I've been using various mods like "X% of physical damage taken as fire/cold/lightning".

These are very easy to craft on helmets or body armour, by either the crafting bench. Or if you have a empty prefix on your helmet/body armour, and they have the Hunter/Warlord/Redeemer influence, you can use harvest crafting to force these mods on.

You could get some more block chance if you're not block capped by slotting a Tempest Shield gem into your wand to auto cast or into your CWDT set up.

I see your Immortal Call in your CDWT is over leveled, not sure if that's intentional?

Has anybody done this as Chieftain? Do you think it's better than Aramageddon Brand or Holy Flame Totem for a Spellcaster Marauder to get started?

It is definitely doable as chieftain. I made both chieftain & trickster version during flashback event of last league.

However, at this moment, I think elementalist just brings so much to the table compared to other ascendancies.
