Ice Shot Lightning Mage DEADEYE - Explaining the finer details

[@-kurai-]

I see Rising Tempest and Close Combat as popular supports for Lightning Rod, but these both seem like they would each represent only a potential 25% dmg bonus each. Combat dummies would sure be nice for A:B testing support gems.

[@TouchesGrassOfficial]

yeah a lot can be different depending on gear and skill tree choices, target dummy when ?! xD

[@-kurai-]

A couple of general questions. How do your resists look for the t15 maps? Are you fitting in rarity besides what is coming from Thief's Torment? I'd also point out that during the campaign, Splinterheart and Death's Harp unique bows can both be decent, and not difficult to purchase for a few exalts.

t15 res is 75/75/75/ 30 chaos res, rarity on self is 154% edit : planning to switch my gear to hybrid evasion / energy shield once i farm a few more divines cause ES is stupid good right now

[@-kurai-]

@@TouchesGrassOfficial If you end up switching your gear, could you either do another video update, or use the maxroll build planner and share that? My level 30 gear coupled with your build carried me through the campaign, with only Blackjaw and Doryani giving me any real grief. (because of their high movement). Working to revise my gear for maps, but I'm planning around the eventual Thief's Torment. Getting enough elemental and chaos resistance seems challenging, so having a peek at each piece of your gear to see how you are balancing it, would be immensely helpful.

@@TouchesGrassOfficial i have the same build and switched to hybrid. DPS went down a lot, no space for stun/elemental avoidance and even with "1,5k hp + 7k ES + 80% evasion and max rez"... i still get 1 shot once in a while. Its like its not even worth it, to have all that ES...

Parece boa, mas com esses itens acho que qualquer escolha seria boa, estou jogando a varios dias, até agora não me caiu sequer um orbe que dá mais slot para habilidades que já possuem 3 slots de gemas, estou usando orbe de vaal para corromper para obter 4 slots nas habilidades mais usadas, só isso na sua build torna ela praticamente inviável para jogadores casuais

kzbin.info/www/bejne/m6vFhYZrpZpnhq8 in this video i run maps with only 2 supports per skill which you get by default

[@stephantimmers9843]

I got 2 of them for sale. I think for 39ex ea.

[@johnsp3cterofp195]

I'm trying to get that ring but the people on trade are swarming and I can't get one lmao. Need that and the emeralds and I should be set

[@-kurai-]

Getting any of those unique rings for under 1 divine is a fools errand. It would be one thing if the purchase attempt was automated, but on top of an army of resellers constantly scanning for good deals, when someone selling gear gets hit by 20-30 purchase requests as soon as they put an item up, they will mark it up themselves. I managed to get a Polcirken ring for my monk for 30 ex, and I feel like that was a steal, but it took a soul-crushingly long time and hundreds of purchase attempts.

[@johnsp3cterofp195]

@-kurai- i did get it for 1 divine 😬 patience was key. Now the build smacks and mana is no issue at all.

[@tszydd]

What is your evasion rating? No acrobatics?

[@TouchesGrassOfficial]

for now no acrobatics, evasion is only at 13k i want to get it up above 20k before taking acro, maybe even 25k since the 70% less is such a huge downside to that keystone
