#ED CONTAGION TRICKSTER UPDATE#

the next 50 felt okay and dying was me not paying attention. The first 10 fights felt like utter bullshit, the next 50 felt sometimes unfair due to the lineup of skills. While it took a while, i feel comfortable in the sirus fight no matter the dps. This subreddit is not for price checking as that does not correlate with builds.

I was under the impression I was getting a cast speed of ~5.3, which should translate directly to ~5.3 Wither stacks per second - could you elaborate on how you got to the values you did? With Increased Duration (which I'll post the updated tree with), I'm also getting a Wither duration of 4.7s, which means hitting max stacks and keeping it there should be fairly reasonable in most boss fights. Can't believe how much time I've spent tweaking this tree over the past league or two and I never noticed that.

Thanks for pointing out the pathing error! I'll update the PoB to reflect that. Once you get above the 8k EHP mark I can't say I noticed much of an issue, but before that it can be a bit shifty.

Arrow Dancing + Flesh & Stone makes up for it in some ways, but it's still a bit more glassy in some situations. Thanks! Dodge is definitely missed a little bit. Honestly, you can replace this with about anything - add another link to a CWDT setup if you like, whatever, but I use it for Portal No need for Faster Casting after the blink changes.įuck scrolls. Keep CWDT at level 1 and Temporal Chains at level 5. Provides both offensive and defensive utility. Simple, dumb method of applying Temp Chains. This lets us absorb fairly colossal amounts of damage (provided it's not a one-shot), and is especially good at nullifying porcupines. The defensive skill doesn't matter too much, although I personally find Flesh and Stone to be more generally useful. Malevolence - Flesh and Stone/ Arctic Armour

Plus we've actually got slots to spare overall. You don't strictly need Faster Casting, but you'll definitely notice its absence. Empower kinda straddles the two, but poorly.Ĭontagion - Intensity - Increased Area of Effect - Faster Casting Alternatively, Increased Duration keeps the effects of Blight/ Vaal Blight around longer, which tends to be more generally useful in my opinion. If you can channel Blight a lot, Swift Affliction is your best outright DPS gem. Just drop gems off the end for a 5 or even 4 slot. Vaal Blight - Infused Channeling - Efficacy - Controlled Destruction - Void Manipulation - Swift Affliction/ Increased Duration/ Empower

Essence Drain - Efficacy - Controlled Destruction - Empower - Void Manipulation - Swift Afflication
