18c last I checked.

It doesn't have the strongest offensive stats on its own but the scaling on it is nuts and with flat phys on gear you turn into a goddamn monster. When I switched at 40, it was the strongest midgame build experience I'd ever had, surpassing even Facebreaker. You need to gear right for it, and reflect will seriously gently caress your poo poo up, but it's just an amazingly fun item to play with.

How well does it stack up at 70+? I'm finding that the flameblast totem elementalist can do the job ok some 80% of the time, but there are situations like highly mobile bosses or odd packs where the whole thing just falls apart. Right now about T5 maps are my character's reasonable limit, so I want to try something new.

I was looking at and probably going to do Ghazzy's Lich build cause I like Skeletons in genereal, but is there a reason not to take Minion Instability? I know it basically gives enemies culling strike, but with +++ to minion life, that 33% should be a lot of damage. Is leaving it out balancing your survivability (glass cannon)?

I was looking at that build myself, viable skeleton spam looks fun but good luck getting a +1 or +2 skeleton per cast enchant from the labyrinth, also would have some problem with bosses that vaporize your army, I also feel like with essences the ease of getting a +2-3 staff or bow for raging spirits might make it more viable.

For instability, do the skeletons have enough health for that 33% to do much? if they do the skeletons might become decent nukes.

I played that build. The enchant is a huge part of it that he kind of glosses over. Summon skeletons has a long rear end cast time and is not a lot of fun without it.

Should've gone with templar for decoy totem breaking bosses. I guess you could do it with just a single flameblast totem killing a boss, just takes a while.

Yeah I didn't realize I was gonna be using totems when i made my Witch, or even that I was gonna be using flameblast. She was originally made for firestorming, then I respecced a little to flameblast, then I burned a lot of currency and respecced a LOT to totem flameblast

An interesting experiment but I kind of regret doing it

I know it's really trivial with the power of guild stash but getting green gems on templar seems like it'd be a pain in the rear end

Short of needing some outrageous requirements (like I did back in warbands, not realizing that a harb needs 212 dex, whoops) you can usually make it up pretty easily with some select gear.

Rarer uniques are harder to chance than the more common ones, chancing the crap moonstone unique is probably a hundred times easier than chancing skyforths. don't feel bad

Imperial bow was windripper, brigadine is lightning coil, judgement staff was hegemony/pledge of hands. They've all dropped precipitously in price, so I'm sure it was just sloppy editing when removing them. They're all worth like 5c now, if that.
