Depending on the league I just may dick around in Standard if I can get all the gear for a toon now. Looking at an Uber Atziri build (granted, my ice trapper could have done it I just never did)



Best uber build is probably fakener or a TS phys build.

That is, unless you have 500+ ex to do something not viable without legacy op stuff.

Push comes to shove, you can run Dried Lake and sell chaos sets and pick up every staff and bow for the dream +3. You can easily make 30 or 40 chaos an hour doing nothing but running to Voll and picking up enough to sell unid'd sets.

Ha, well that's good! You in the guild?


And, ofc, exalt prices are crashing! It can't be a league without exalt prices dropping like mad after a month or two.

Post your character name and someone can add you. If you want, that is.

And, these micro transactions really want me to make a blast rain build.

So this Scion Spark is ridiculous. Stuff just melts even at level 42. :eek:
Also Victario's Acuity is amazing, got this one, with a very good roll for 40c iLvl 80. :cool:

I forgot to mention... that the DPS this necklace adds is unbelievable.
I will go from around 930 dps without fighting and when stuff starts proccing, Elemental Overload + Frenzy + Power charges and Lightning golem running I am 1600-1700 dps. :)

Frenzy charges in general are op. The more multiplier per charge is insane. My CA char had 8!

Sheesh... I think I might need to invest in some more Frenzy charges, considering how often this necklace will be up. Right now it gives me 3 Frenzy and 3 Power charges fully maxed.

If you can grab extra without going out of your way and have a mechanism for sustaining them, it's worth it for the damage. If you can't keep them at max, it's likely not worth running more than 3. Also, Kraityn gives and additional frenzy in Merciless if you help him.

Yeah I know about the bandit reward and I do get one more in the build already so would be 5... but having 8 sounds.... Awesome hehe.

The real question is... why mention the ilvl? It's a non-linkable unique, ilvl does literally nothing :p

Seriously though nice amulet.

Shrug felt like it lol.... as for the Amulet... yeah its pretty amazing.
Keeping up the 3 stacks for both is very easy if I move quickly and kill a lot.

If anyone wants to do some maps tonight, I'll be on. Likely going to start with some t3 and go from there until I'm like 85 ish then buy a bunch of t9s and find a culler.

Finally leveled to be able to use Voltaxic + Drillneck for the Scion Spark.
Stuff is melting... :D , its comical how quickly it kills mobs.
When I get Berserker , the 1.5% life leech from dmg is going to make running maps an absolute blast.
Now just need to save up for a 5L Lightning Coil. :cool:

Building a sparky myself, unfortunately a little late to the game-the stuff is so expensive now! Every other char I've had has been essentially self found stuff. So far I've bought a Drillneck and am using a Quill Rain I found (low 50s character).

Yesterday I spent a couple hours running sac fragments over and over again with a level 85 flame totem chieftain (my favorite character to date), looking for Vaal Haste and Vaal Grace. It look 3-4 hours and a half dozen frags but I ended up with both Vaal Haste and Vaal Grace.

A quick question-when pricing both the Vaal Haste and Vaal Grace on poe.trade every single one up for trade was corrupted. What is the advantage of doing this and should I do it to mine?

So trying to decide whether to use Add Chaos dmg, Innervate or Faster projectiles for a 6L slot (if I can find an affordable one) :\
This is for Spark/Chaos of course.
Currently running Spark+Spell Echo+Poison+Controlled destruction+Pierce in my 5L chest.
