    Autobomber has superior clear, popping whole screens in a way dom blow nor hop can. Plus, you have more control due to only 50% of your dps coming from HoT. I often feel like I'm dragging my minions around like a distracted dog on a leash. Autobomber can feel that way if HoT decides to ping...

    Well, crit VD was also my recommendation, so maybe you shouldn't listen to me ;) VD/DD vs VD/HoA is about the same in DPS. I would really like to understand why the dps sucked though. I really like the autobomber I posted a page back. Chaining pops is probably my favorite thing in this game...

    My hangup with spellslinger VD showed itself well before exalts worth of investment. I keep interrupting my barrage, leaving corpses spawned but no balls. Also, the delay between clicking and shit finally dying is just fucking maddening. Not even DOT builds are this slow. I was hoping...

    Unknown. I was hoping there was a way to harvest craft that as I imagine that's quite unreasonable otherwise.

    I can figure how to craft something like a warlord helm where I want some related rare affixes. Reforge until you land related affixes and the rest of them are targetable, finish up the item with annuls, augs, and benchcrafts. Where do I even start if I want to craft a Shaper staff like this...

    Maybe not per seed, but you do get a fair amount per map.

    No, I mean use " {Augment} an item with a new {Critical} modifier " on a magic item. I can't find anything online that confirms it needs a rare like an exalted orb would. But, I'm guessing from the way you're talking, it does require a rare item.

    Yeah, what you're describing is basically what I'm going to do. I was seeing if there was a cheap method outside of Harvest crafting. I thought there was, turns out I was reading the data wrong. Getting Envoy by itself, or even with an open prefix, is quite common. Got it many times last...

    I want to say yes considering the popularity of this site, but I'm not certain. I looked into this some more and alt-aug?regal is not basically not supported by this website for what I want. The UI, when using that method, automatically groups the affixes and considers any hit in a group a...

    What am I misinterpreting here? Craft of Exile I wanted to craft a medium cluster jewel with Self-Fulfilling Prophecy and Empowered Envoy, I don't care about the other two affixes. Craft of Exile say that should take a meager amount of alts and augments org. It did not. I blew through 100...

    Would highly recommend the autobomber build based on Storm Secret. It's a tad squishy but how cheaply you can get a walking simulator setup is quite worth it. That's ~1 ex total in gear as of yesterday. Likely more earlier in the league. HP total and defenses are respectable but definitely...

    I was planning on using Contempt essences or Jagged fossils until I get 2 physical prefixes, slam explode, remove lightning, and then 50/50 off the last bad physical prefix. I don't want an explodey chest with melee thorns on it because all the prefixes are quite valuable(explode, life, crafted...

    Why do you think "remove not X/add x" is the same as "remove X/add X"? I was going to use the latter to craft T1 resists on my explodey chest.

    Just buy them linked! I paid 4ex for 6W 30% ilvl 86 crusader astral already linked. Even with Harvest crafting, there's still enough RNG left in the crafting process to worry about how many fusings it's going to take.

    Thanks. What have you been save instead? I thought x/x would be worth saving. I'm just getting into crafting now(rerolled a bunch of times...), bought a 6L White Crusader Astral Plate and want to make an explodey chest. So, I don't know what's worth saving beyond the scope of this specific...

    What crafts do people save? Targeted annuls, targeted slams, targeted annuls+slams...anything else? Remove "not this" and slam "this" does not seems worthwhile, when would you use this?

    Popular league starter and meta slaves is my guess. I'm guess 95+ percent of those players weren't planning on investing much or just copied a certain hardcore streamer.

    Took a bit longer than I expected to make serviceable code, but here it is anyway. Wouldn't mind a second set of eyes. But, if I'm correct, Spell Cascade -> Spell Echo + Spell Cascade makes Spell Echo only a ~1.35 multiplier. This may infact still be your best 6th link since you aren't...

    Inferred multiplier for blade blast. I'll cook up some python code for bladefall, I'm willing to bet spell echo is an effective 1.5 multiplier because of the lingering blade limit. 1.35 with awakened spell cascade.

    Path of Exile

    No, that's definitely how spell echo works. It's hard to notice at cast speeds around 0.25, which is where this build should be anyway. Strip away some of your cast speed gear and do some stutter step casting, you'll see a longer delay with spell echo in because you, the player, are casting...

    Path of Exile

    I haven't looked into crit or minion survivability yet, you might be right there. The 100+ mana requirement doesn't lock you into Spell Echo just because it's a 1.4 multiplier. Before you get to level 20 Bladefall, maybe. But with a base cost of 24 and the Forethought nodes, you get there...

    You're not using Black Cane? Seems tailor made for this spell combo. Spell Echo *seems* good, but I think its benefit is marginal over another support, especially since it locks you down for two casts(why can't you animation cancel this like multistrike!?!?!). All it take is two bad rolls of...

    LL Shavs is just more dps, which you can get many other ways(CDR, crit, expensive gear, etc). Pops are much harder to get. That DW guy was right.

    3.8, it's been like this for almost a year. And Leash of Oblation has been in since 3.9. By itself, I don't think Bone Offering will get nerfed. Putting Glancing Blows on the tree might get it nerfed though. Though, it took them a year to nerf VMS...

    Bladeblast is being used 8% of players that 5+ link VD with spellslinger. Most people I'm seeing are using Wave of Conviction, a curse, and an offering. The ability to offload cursing to a ring, corrupted gloves, or CoH setup is much easier than being able to offload Unnerving, thus Bladeblast...

    Crit strikes on your HoI intead of Hypthermia is a slight boost to dps, big boost to consistency. Incursion mod on gloves for increased damage against chilled enemies. You might want to consider incorporating Glancing Blows. You're right near all the nice shield nodes.
