Enki's Arc Witch Memorial Page & POE 2 Arc Summary
" Wow. You are a PoB warrior!! Thank you so much for crunching the numbers, it's kind of hard to argue with any of that. I'll start poking around for a ring with t1 mana regen when I'm home later; I used one last league (when it was easy to craft a great ring around mana mods), and it did make a tangible difference. About the frenzy charges--do you have some way of generating them in the Sirus fight? Regular Blood Rage wouldn't, though this expensive variant should supposedly let us get frenzy charges against bosses: As you can see from the video I posted, it works somewhat, but not completely, reliably against Sirus. I might take a page out of your book and unlink it from my cwdt setup. I like it in there for mapping, but it does seem to somewhat compromise frenzy charge generation against Sirus.

" Off-hand this and switch to cast arc 3 times from time to time :) (I never tried that so don't take it too seriously) |

" LOL omg that's great. That would legit be a sick corruption for an actual weapon, though. |

OK, I created a pastebin account and PoB started exporting correctly. Yay!

" Another food for thought: I'm currently trying this shield modifier: Not the best shield, but so far quite interesting, because it tells me how often my character blocks. |

Hey love the guide! Was able to kill my first A8 Sirus this league after returning to the game since Harbinger
Was just wondering, how valuable is recover % mana on block? Have crafted a pretty decent shield, but lose ~1mill dps if I replace my current shield with it. Shields are: My pob is: https://pastebin.com/cKKqkw7z I was also wondering if pob calculates curse on hit rings into dps? Or do I need to add conductivity as a spell for example. Thanks! |

Greetings to everyone!
I have just implemented "conductivity - unnerve - culling strike" and it is really the great damage boost! Right now I am strugling to get 96 level and it seems like my survivability is not as perfect as damage. Dying on T16 Cassia missions, on some >80 Heists and sometimes just randomly. Meanwhile I can beat Elder/Shaper guards mostly deathless! Is it my lack of attention or is there something I missed in my gear/gems/passives? If someone could have a look, I would be very much helpful. |

" Personally, I've never found the recover mana on block mod necessary, because if I die, it's usually to a ridiculous 1- or 2-hit and not to a bunch of hits draining my mana. But a lot of people here swear by it, so it obviously is useful. If your survivability isn't an issue, I would probably stick with the higher-damage shield, but try them both out in a really juiced map and see if you notice a difference. PoB does calculate the Conductivity on hit penalty as long as it's checked in the "skills" tab, which it was in your PoB link. Your link was calculating regular DPS and not Sirus DPS, so I tweaked it a little. https://pastebin.com/7vHeVLdu -- that's assuming you're running regular RF. https://pastebin.com/WEJPT6Z7 -- that's if you're only using the gem for Vaal RF. I won't ever count Vaal RF in PoB because it obviously does nothing for sustained damage output; same with flasks, unless you have a reliable method of generating flask charges in a single-target situation.

" Honestly, your stuff looks pretty good...I don't see any glaring deficiencies. Are you careful with your flask usage? That can make a big difference if you're getting mobbed, which it sounds like most of your deaths are coming from. Also, I'd ditch one of those life flasks for a quicksilver; those help a ton in heists. Other questions: what's your unreserved mana, are you running regular RF, and if so, are you able to sustain your mana with it on while at a standstill in your hideout with only auras and no other buffs active? Also, are you paying close attention to map mods? One extra shitty mod on a map can result in a day's worth of xp lost. That just fucking happened to me an hour ago. Not angry about it at all. Nope. Someone else can probably give better insight! Zuletzt bearbeitet von WorderMostFoul#7154 um 22.10.2020, 02:56:16

" Thanks for your answer! Yes, you are right, the most death situation can be descriped as "getting mobbed". Probably, my not-very-fresh laptop doesnt like such situations as well thus lagging and playing on mob's side (( That is why it seems like I need to shift somehow to more defencies even if loosing some part of damage. What should I do first when being mobbed to have better chance to avoid death? Press Concoction and Silver Flask? Or mana flask? Or focus on Flame Dash and getting out from these annoying creatures? If the first choice is not correct, there could be no chance for the second one... As to stats, I have 4.400 HP and 9.200 unreserved mana. Seems like it should be enough... Not running regular RF (though I can sustain it well in hideout) as 1) I feel the damage to be OK without RF; 2) it remarkably decreased the survivability. So just using Vaal RF from time to time. And yes, I am attentive to reflect mods, mana regen mods, elemental weakness and temporal chains (hate this one). |
