Best wand for a physi wander?
Best possible wand is imbued as most of damage will be elemental anyways. Also shock stacks
169% phys 25-45 phys 15-115 lightning (not sure of value though) Crit chance Crit multi Attack speed/accuracy That wand is much better than max phys mods in every way |

" While Luneras numbers talk for themselves. I think too an Imbued wand is the "best possible" in the way of the damage aspect. However you just seem to forget that the the more elemental damage you deal the less physical damage leech you will have. Making a wander without that life leech gem I find quite a fun task, and I want to optimize it. Also, you can gain more than enough lightning damage from Wrath+Thunderfists for shocking purposes. You will also get more lightning damage if you have the 10% added as lightning at the top (I know it does not make for 15-115 at all, but its still a bit). Rounded up I think the physical damage instead of lightning can make up for the loss in other ways. |

Imo maligaros beat thunderfist by far. When you have enough crit you oneshot all anyways i have in default a ci witch with 23k dps lmp and chain and most of my dmg is elemental(no wakes) ofc even with all phys passives and phys wand(+lightning) and im on "cap" in both mana leech and life leech (11% life leech blood rage and just 2% mana leech with mind drinker). Although i would prefer a tornado with attack speed (1.45 or so) due to mana cost (136 mana per attack, ~3 aps with 1600mana (850free) isnt to free cast
Both have pros and cons but im pretty sure of phys+lighting being superior by far on average(also you have 30% increased lightning between nullification nodes) People often overvalue phys dmg for bypassing armour enemies when it isnt that good. Before patch i was doing more elemental damage vs a 75% all res mob than phys (being this 1.2k phys dmg on crit which ignores ~90% of armour against most mobs) E: without ele weakness ofc Last edited by sanleon#0371 on Jun 17, 2013, 5:04:05 PM

I recently chaosed this.
My ele wander was sat idle with the free respec (and also a bit stuck with -10 dex) so I had a play. While the wand could still do with a couple of lucky rolls, I compared it with this old wand of his (i.e. both no crit) as an ele. Took nearly all the phys and phys/as nodes above witch, took all the conversion nodes and was ofc one power charge down and some crit. It sucked balls compared to the full ele. I'd say, while looking good, a high phys + lightning, really needs to be a full phys wand to come close to the ele. Casually casual. Last edited by TheAnuhart#4741 on Jun 17, 2013, 5:04:09 PM

" The fact that they nerfed chain so that crits dont spread evenly, but now only all crit, or none crit makes it very inconsistant compared to what it used to be. Still good, but not nearly as good. So what is this über hype about elemental damage anyway? I know its good, but guys try to come up with some new builds instead. Also I seem to totally destroy myself on reflects on full ele build + even hybrid. Its VERY dangerous. You need life leech gem + Vaal pact to survive. Also notice, I am making a build going all the way to Unwavering stance so I am not that maxed out on crit - I want to create something that works for all leagues. |
