Any reason to not take elemental equilibrium?

At the cost of 1 extra skillpoint it's extra -50% fire resist and it works even for curse immune monsters/maps (along with fire penetration, I suppose). It would be apllied by your Arc which is cast before DD anyway (to apply double curses-on-hit).

So this is how its work, since i tested it...
First, around 80% of my dmg is burning dmg and only 20% come from flat dmg..
When u curse mobs with arc they get -50% to fire and cold and +25% to lightning. Yes ur initiall Detonate dead will do more dmg, but after hit monsters getting +25% to fire and it decreasing ur burning dmg. Since burning dmg is much higher then initial on, u are getting nothing with elemental equilibrium. I did not calculated difference, i tested it and comparing time to kill atziri i can tell u 100% that with ele equil my dmg is lower.
Every time when u curse atziri u need to remove xcurse from u.
So basicly my fight with atziri is just one curse per phase. Is it worth to took ele eqilibrium for only 1-2 sec when u start fight, since after that u only spamm dd and she will get +25% to fire, to get -50% u need use arc again...so its dispel curse again..Any way i run out of flasks during uber fight, and with ele qilibrium its probbly 2-3 portals only for that fight since without dispel flask any ele dmg one shot me.

Well, I was thinking more about general endgame mapping rather than about Atziri/uber A. For general gameplay you can re-cast Arc on anything that's burning setting the -50% fire res back, right?

For Atziri you could remove curses from your Arc link or (if it's not viable because you need them to actually kill her) I guess it bearable to spend one regret orb per each Atziri to switch EE off just for the fight.

Have you considered it?

U obv did not play this build. on endgame maps u dont have time to recurse anything since u one shot all (without ele eyilibrium) So thats point. rlly dont see reason why to use it...
And game style of this build is to pop desecrate- curses and spam dd (no more cursing)
With cursing u losing time and then we are on begining, do u getting more dps with ele eqilibrium if u stop Dd to curs again... so for 50% less fire ress u losing a lot of flat dmg...i rlly dont see point in this.

And using regrets is wtf.. man when i farm atziri im runing 80-100 runs per day...so its rlly WTF

hye, can i ask where's the uber vid? my frnd want to make this build. but he wants to see the uber vid and i cant find it. thx in advance. build is great :D

So if you are running Atziri for the whole day you do not need to use regret all the time, only once for the whole day.

Well I am playing your build currently. It's just that I am only lvl 75 (just got the chance to wield one Dor.Catalyst.). My dmg is not spectacular and I feel very fragile in 72 maps or Zana 7+ dailies with 6,5k ES.

I also tried a similar build with my lvl87 witch at the beginning of this season, but it was slightly different - life based and with max block/max spell block, but with less fire/ele damage.

One more thing (sorry to bug you repeteadly). Does our leech come only from initial DD explotions (and Molten Shield) or also from burning?
