Started leveling this build, and so far it`s going great... i`m lvl 48 now.

have bought all the needed gear, now just making my way to lvl68-70 to equip it all.

but i`m having a HUGE problem, asked a few people on global chat, but noone could give me an answer.

i looked at pastebin link, it has firestorm + CWDT + poison + ball lightning
as far as i understood, this was to generate virulance stacks for agony herald.
so, i started leveling as ball lightning + lmp/gmp + lesser poison. worked great. at around lvl 40 i switched to incinerate + CWC + firestorm in a 4-link...
here`s where the problem happened with 4th link!!!

poison support gem doesn`t generate virulance stacks AT ALL!!! while lesser poison support generates them just fine! WHY?!?!?! the only difference between those two gems is that lesser poison also has - adds x-x flat chaos dmg... is that what actually generates the stacks or what? if so, why not just use an added chaos dmg support instead?!

Hi there, first of all, happy new year :D

You are right, any elemental damage requires a phys or chaos component (flat), combined with "chance to poison" to be able to generate virulence. That's why in my main build, I mentioned you need a source of flat chaos/phys to spell.

Similarly, if you don't use Ngamahu's Sign (with flat fire to spell), your ball lightning won't be able to ignite.

So ball lightning in this build is not limited to poison, but also provide ignite and blind.

just almost 3pm here now, so, still have time to new years, but yeah, happy new year.

yeah, now i understood, thanks, i guess i missed that part when i read it a few days ago.
not using sign rings yet, won`t till i get my level up to when i can equip all my gear. and ball lightning, personally felt terrible while i`m leveling. it was good for packs, but lacked keeping up max stacks vs bosses.
right now i`m using:
4-link: incinerate + cast while channeling + firestorm + lesser poison
5-link: herald of agony + minion damage + pierce + DMG on full life + vicious projectiles.
leveling feels very good, especially, since we`re not taking any dmg nodes on passive tree. and gear i`m using is also just random trash i had laying around. used tabula until lvl 46, with added cold damage as 6th link, now using 5-link belly of the beast for extra life, resists and such.
also, a great leveling unique is karui ward, gives us all we need, dex, projectile speed and damage and move speed.

Thanks for the recommendation. The leveling section in this build guide really need some work, I think I can build on your suggestions and eventually update that part.

btw I don't think the projectile damage and proj speed in Karui Ward affects crawlers (if that's what you mean).
