Hi
The tooltip gives weird numbers when I use Wrath aura.
Toolitp arc dps number seems lower than the one without.
Is it a bug, or am I missing something ? (sorry I'm quite new to the game)

I apologize if this was answered or if it’s a dumb question, I’m returning to the game after a couple years lol. In the leveling section under Act1 it says after killing Brutus to get Clarity, Vitality, and FlameDash but I can only select one reward and I picked Clarity not sure if you meant for us to buy the other two or something. Also want to say thank you so much for this guide, it’s very organized and extremely well thought out which I appreciate greatly :).

Wrath gives us 21% more spell damage (At lvl 20), which is a pretty large amount. But we can only run it in an essence wurm ring, because it will otherwise reserve too much mana. In general that trumps any other ring.

You want to use Wrath only in an essence wurm. Otherwise it will reserve too much mana and work against the archmage support gem.

Yes, buy the rest from one of the vendors, I believe Nessa.

mark of shaper gives a flat 25% increased elemental damage and then another +~80% increased spell damage. Is wrath really better? sorry if I'm misunderstanding the numbers.

Wrath gives a more damage spell multiplier, that's automatically better than an increased spell multiplier. You already should have a good amount of increased spell dmg on your wands, so having a more multi is overall better.
"More" is multiplicative while "Increased" is addictive. Even if you get +100% increased spell damage, I don't believe that would beat a 21% more multiplier.

The new elevated Shaper mod on body armour can roll up to 15% MoM. If you can get it with the elevated %mana mod it seems pretty strong.
Regarding the increased/more: if you have 476% increased damage from tree/equipments/skills, then the 100% increased and 21% more are equal. Once you're above 476% the latter is always better. You probably already have more than that value at level 80 with budget gears. Even if you don't, when you want to upgrade in the future, the increased effects are diminishing, meaning every point you get on gears/tree will become less and less effective, while the more multipliers are compounding, like how your credit card balance grows when you forgot to pay the bank.

Thanks for doing the math.

How does Praxis work with Mind over Matter? Just got one while leveling, Level 58 now.

Looking at it in PoB compared to the rare rings I'm using.... I'd lose a hefty chunk of my resistances (cos rings are one of the places we stack resists) for a very small gain in DPS. Not worth it. We want to be at 75% resists as much as possible.
Edit: I'm lvl 67.
