    The benefit over storm brand is that you have a base shock value (15%). Which means it's not tied in how hard your shock applier hits which is why it would work on uber pinnacle bosses with classes other than elementalist which might have trouble getting to 65%. I'm kind of confused by what you...

    Possible 1 button L. conduit set up, that works in game as far as i can tell: Malachai loop (self shock) + ralakesh impatience (to trigger the malachai loop) + shock prolif (to spread shock) + inpulsa (to be unnaffected by the shock yourself) This way i think (if ralakesh impatience work...

    Granted i only finished act 5 but wanted to try to level with lightning skills again because it's been alot of arma brand lately. Gotta say the lightning masteries are crazy, and you can get them so fast...Makes for a comfy run so far with oos and SB mines and hopefully conduit will only be better

    Now i'm worried. They buffed the new lightning skills by a crazy amount compared to what they'd shown before. Lightning conduit went from -> to 1842 top end -> 2359 10% more / 5% shock -> 15% more/5 shock 5% crit -> 6% crit 26 mana -> 16 mana...

    They updated sunblast again lol Updated the Sunblast Unique Belt note (again): Old: The Sunblast Unique Belt no longer has 30-40% increased Trap Damage, or 20% increased Mana Regeneration Rate. Instead, it now has "Skills which Throw Traps throw up to 1-3 additional Traps", "Throw Traps...

    I don't know if this is new or just new to me but apparently there's a 3 of (insert unique here) into a rerolled one vendor recipe. Don't think it works on corrupted ones and you get the lowest ilvl back and maybe there's some other rule i don't know. So it's pretty worthwhile if for example...

    You can probably go non-sunblast for maps and then just equip it for pinnacle bosses and melt everything. Also might be super expensive. I think i might go L. conduit too. Should have the damage for bosses (and 40% chill) but might be annoying for mapping, just no way to know. But the mapping...

    3 points from the patch notes that are relevant...TLDR: I believe sunblast is the only thing that can reduce duration but buffed to 75% at best. The Set and Forget Cluster Jewel Notable Passive Skill no longer has 25% reduced Trap Duration, 12% increased Area of Effect. Instead, it now has...

    Like you say these uniques have a lot of potential for sure. My pickle is the new lowered unique droprates makes it a bit hard to decide on starters. If it's much lower then you need a starter that works with rares. But if you can still get uniques easily, and you don't make a build with some...

    So the twitch streams ive watched seem to think it's not what you think...There was an actual bug where it could hit thrice and thats what threy fixed but 1 melee from extra strike +1 proj from you should still work...but prob no way to know for sure

    Melee is so dumb. It only works if you can kill in seconds because otherwise you get like 1/10 of your pob dps while a ranged class might have 1/2 because of avoiding mechanics.

    I'd say shield charge is very meh for this..It's noticable breakpoints are 24 and 34...24 you could get already pretty easily and 34 will probably never be worth the investment

    There's a ruetoo vortex ignite POB around that uses frostferno. The budget version has around 1.1 million ignite dps. A 5 link frostblink in this chest would do 1.8. This might be crazy for league start but i just don't know exactly how it would feel to play

    So i don't see this being good in any real sense but for leveling twinks it seems op to me. Level 15 added cold is level 55 and you can start using this at 32 (same as triad grips) and use permanent minions like spectres, zombies and holy relic and not really care about mana costs while using...

    None of the nerfs really bothers me. There's been so much power creep since the big nerf patch it's kind of expected. The criticism that it's a downer of a read is deserved though. They really have to work on their communication skills and the "buffs" to underused skills look like a joke.

    Currently you only need an offering, don't have to do any trial For a while though you had to find 1 trial, and with that patch they also changed it to only start spawning in yellow maps.

    There are a lot of "noobs" with 2k hours in this game so it's going to take a while to stop being overwhelmed. I think people like this season because the previous league's big end game expansion + atlas passives really hit the nail on the head (and people skipped/quit last league for lost...

    I went with the triple dmg staff with my MB because it's easy resists. Paired with winter orb.

    How does Singular focus perform in your oppinion? And don't you like Wrath of the cosmos? And 2% strongbox reopenable vs 0.5% chance for map dupli is up for debate.

    I'm guessing the arcane surge roll has a caster tag? If so you could try to gamble, cause it could remove fire dot but caster tags would be safe, and craft "cannot roll caster modifiers" to annul the mana whitout risking the +1 gems.

    I think the Sentinel part of this patch is actually great. It's not intrusive and you get to target farm a lot of loot and the crafting is interesting and also whitout being intrusive (like harvest).
