This also, I hate how long the tab names get when you set a fixed price

Would love some ideas for how to use a spare gem socket in my full-phys flicker slayer build. Got Molten Shell + duration + lifetap in there atm. Golem+Enduring Cry in CWDT, Totems, Auras and Flicker are my other skill groups.

portal gem :v:

real answer, probably a long-range movement skill, especially since you already have lifetap in it

Hmmm, might be a good idea but I have a decent amount of move% and won't have space for faster attacks on leap slam for example...I guess just a gap-jumper is pretty nice if there are no enemies on the other side

Enduring cry won't cwdt, in case you intend it to rather than just having it slotted there. Moving that to the molten shell link for increased duration and lifetap and adding enfeeble to your cwdt is a great option if you have no other curse. Other possibly useful cwdt options include the following: temporal chains if you don't like enfeeble; vulnerability if you want an offensive curse; frost wall can be hilarious with flicker to block enemy movement; void sphere for hinder and corpse disposal; vortex for chill, or creeping frost, or cold snap maybe; withering step for elusive and phasing; purifying flame for consecrated ground; or portal because you're gonna die a lot. There's others but these are the ones that came to mind for me.

Yeah I vaguely remembered it wouldn't, but since I want to hardcast my guard skill to keep uptime high I dunno what else to use CWDT for, so I just threw Enduring Cry and an Increased Duration in there with my Golem. I guess it makes more sense to replace it with a curse and some other defensive utility and move the Cry to my non-CWDT link.

E: Actually I forgot I added a reservation efficiency + herald to my setup leaving me at 100% mana reserved so I kinda have to move Cry into lifetap so i can cast it...I had 10% unreserved previously

I'm running Kitava's Feast for leaguestart to do corpse disposal, so I might try try Withering Step or Frost Wall with Enfeeble

E2: Hmmm, Step losing all bonuses on next skill use seems a bit poo poo, and I only have 90 int in my setup so all the Int gems seem a bit rough. Might try Purifying Flame + Chains.

I really want to do an ES trickster with all the new leech stuff, using lightning conduit.

I dunno if it would be any good and this is only my third(?) league and I absolutely do not have the knowledge to do this. But I want to.

Probably should just go with some other trickster build as a starter until someone figures it out for me :v:

Cwdt and other triggers also use mana now, so you may need to lifetap that too. Withering step phasing is removed by skill use, but the elusive will decay over a short time giving you a large chunk of chance to avoid hits and movespeed. It's only the phasing which drops off. You might be better off with a low-mid level enfeeble or temp chains, though.

Ah, I see. Wonder if I should remove the golem for Lifetap then, I feel like it might just die a lot and if it does that 9% AS is just worse than the alternatives...

The gem says "Using a skill or losing the Elusive buff ends this skill's effects." If it was just the phasing I think it would specify that.

It does end the elusive, which is to its advantage for nightblade builds since it allows you keep resetting the elusive effect around halfway through its duration so you don't have to wait for it to tick down to 0 every time

I'm probably skipping the Kalandra league. I only did this to wrap things up since it seemed realistic, took 5 hours and 16 minutes to go from Depth 431 to 600 and the remaining endgame grinds requirements were fulfilled in-between doing maps for Sulphite. I wanted to finish the league with a proper nice set of 38 and have the full armor set and wrap up since due to time constraints, work etc I don't see myself going for a crazy challenge completion like this anytime soon.

If you're skipping the league and won't need to design your own build this league I'll slide you some paypal dollars to design this awful CI Flicker Strike Trickster idea I'm going to run.

I actually used this quite a bit last league and found it to be reallyyyyy helpful very early when Chaos are worth more. The filter updating to highlight what you need makes it idiot proof, and then it tells you where to click to collect your stack of chaos every few maps. I'm definitely going to use it again this league since currency prices are gonna be volatile. I'm not falling for the reddit doom-saying of 3c Exalts and 500c divines but it's going to be different for sure.

Tai posted:

I don't think there's a reasonable way to play TS as a league starter. Even the juiced builds tend to just be focused mappers and poo poo bossers which you can't really do as your first build anyway.

Eh, gently caress it, lets go for the new skill lightning package. Starting with a new skill is typically a mistake, but I am bored of existing stuff.

I think I am going to go elementalist for the easy guaranteed shock. Inquisitor might be better once you are geared, but ... starter build and all.

For those who don't know, the 15% guaranteed shock from shaper of storms can be scaled by ailment effectiveness. Meaning that you can inflict big shocks on high hp enemies even if your hit is small. I did a little testing, and if you pick up breath of lightning, static blows, the ailment effect small node near divine judgement, and increased-effect of non-damaging ailments elemental mastery, a level 1 storm brand with unbound ailments will shock for 57%. It isn't quite the 65% cap, but this is with zero gear. Getting to the cap should be very doable with only some minor gearing.
If you end up throwing together a PoB at some point I'd love to see it. No pressure though.

as an aside with this amount of generic ailment effect any elementalist build should also pick up the chill ascendancy since you're just about guaranteed to hit max chill effect which is a big defensive boost.

I don't understand why the price of exalts would change at all or that they would no longer be the default currency? The only thing that changed is divine rarity. Why would this change exalts being defacto currency along with chaos?

They changed a bunch of crafting recipes to use Divine instead of Exalts. So because Exalts leave the economy slower, their value will go down.
