Ah, that's my bad; I didn't look closely enough at the mods. That is exceptional, though It That Fled's increased spell damage/non-chaos as extra chaos hybrid mod is preferable to just pure increased spell damage.

Not sure what you mean by 2% more than you can craft. I'm not aware that you can benchcraft that mod (global lighting/elemental penetration) at all. You're not thinking of attacks with this weapon penetrate x% elemental resistances, are you? Because that mod wouldn't work with a caster build. When it comes to swords, we're stuck with 10% cap via fossil-crafting, unless we're lucky enough to find Topotante's on the right base like you did. ;)

A Shaper dagger will definitely edge out a tiger hook for DPS, if you only care about damage. The dodge chance is the only reason why tiger hooks are desirable. But if you're going to go for pure DPS, you might as well fossil-craft another rapier like this one, from what I understand. You've probably seen it, but if you haven't, take a look at Enki's crafting miniguide at the bottom of the OP.

Yea my bad the craft on swords is the attacks pen, so 10% is the max.
If i can find a tiger hook with topotante's ill grab it, but the best base ive seen is the lower version (4% dodge not 6%). If im going to the trouble of crafting might as well hold out for the 6%

I only had (and still have) rank 2 of the spell damage + non-chaos and it completely skipped my mind to just leave the craft till later when i had rank 3. 2x rapiers or 2 shaper daggers are both worse than dual wielding 1 of each, so if i cant get a tiger hook dagger is def the way to go.

Definitely agreed on holding out for the 6% base. Pointless to invest a lot of currency into an inferior base.

Yeah, I'm still trying to get rank 3 for that mod, too. All the waiting for unveiled mods really kills momentum in the league. If you want a crafting service, I can vouch for Josh's craft and carry (just Google it).

That's a really interesting point on mixing the dagger with the rapier. I did not consider that the combination might result in more powerful multipliers; good on you for checking me there. I should not have assumed!

Would Elegant Hubris' Supreme Ego be worth it for 6 points?

You can only have one Aura on you from your Skills
Your Aura Skills do not affect Allies
50% more Effect of Auras from your Skills on you
50% more Mana Reserved

Also has the possibility of getting some nice notables for 1 point each, such as:

+40% to Critical Strike Multiplier
80% increased Critical Strike Chance
15% chance to gain a Power Charge on Critical Strike
30% increased Effect of Shock

Well, 50% more effect of wrath is
31% more lightning damage as apposed to 21%, so its only 10% more damage.
It depends totally on what your losing, which keystone ur taking to get supreme ego, and whether thats worth what you gain. Best way to tell, would be to take a screen shot of ur tree, and highlight which nodes are getting changed and to what, and then link us that to have a look

Hi, Love this build! I found an HH earlier this league which has led me to buy the best i could find, or atleast i think i have done so. Currently about 20 ex worth of gear on this toon and just about to enter red maps.

What are the best ways to improve the dps on the character right now?

PoB: https://pastebin.com/jnmHgG8A

I appreciate any response alot!

Cheers!

Edit: Ill get a new prismatic with lightning pen and mana leech, thatll increase it by around 10% according to POB, im looking for other options aswell. Currency is not an issue, currently around 90 ex banked.

I'd be lying if I said I weren't pretty jealous. I'd start here:

1. Buy lvl 21 Vaal Arc.
2. Fix flasks:
2a. Buy Cinderswallow with increased critical strike chance mod, change craft on ring to added cold + added fire damage. Replace silver flask with it.
2b. Buy or craft an experimenter's diamond flask of heat and replace your quicksilver flask with it.
2c. Buy or craft eternal life flask of staunching and replace your divine life flask with it. (I admit this is not related to DPS but you should do it anyway.)
2d. Get all flasks up to 20% quality!!
3. May as well buy two premade multimodded weapons. I know there are a bunch of Shaper's profane wands on the market right now at 5-10 ex each that have good mods for this build; you could buy two for a huge immediate damage and movement speed boost and use them until you've optimized the rest of your setup and are ready to make your own weapons with other base types.

4. Buy Wrath or Zealotry Aul's Uprising and replace Clarity with the second aura (buy a lvl 21 Zealotry).
5. Replace Damnation Curio with a well-rolled Clear Mind.
6. Unspec Crackling Speed and get 2 jewel sockets on either side of starting point. Fill with best Hypnotic Eye Jewels you can find.

7. Get two more levels and take jewel slot underneath Mind Drinker. Fill with a jewel like the last two.
8. Buy 21/20 gems for all skills that don't need to be capped at a certain gem level (e.g. Arcane Surge). Buy 1/20 gems for those other skills and level them up to the appropriate place.

All of these combined should at least double your effective DPS immediately, and all can later be resold at minimal or no loss.

Hello,

thanks a lot for your guide/build. I'm currently level 70 and never been to Act 10 before.

I'm sure my question is already answered but I had trouble searching for topcis within the thread, sorry!

1) Currently I have 4 skill points open and don't know where to put them, skill tree ended in Act 9 or 10.

2) I bought Tabula Rasa, Mind of the Council, Oskarm and Essence Worm and put Wrath in it. Now I have trouble capping the resistances. Does anyone have a tip how to achieve that? Probably I have to grind a bit for currency before affording satisfying gear, is there a recommended way of maxing the resistances fast? I probably need weapons, boots, belt, and one ring for resistances

E: In case somebody wants to take a look at my character go ahead, I'm sure I missed some stuff like putting quality on flasks. I'm thankful for those tips aswell, maybe you see unused potential and I have free gem slots, too

thanks

Can someone tell me how this arc build does with legion content? I would think it would better than any other build due to it's chaining. Have people found this to be true? Are you able to clear almost all the legion monsters due to the chaining?

Its good, vaal arc is better as it can unlock 70% + of a legion instantly. Its far from the best though, but its pretty damn good

Is it necessary to farm for the tabula or can i just skip to the 5l inpulsa?
