[3.13] Power Siphon/Kinetic Blast Poison Assassin - Very fast and tanky poison wander

We've got ourselves a 7-link.



We have encountered first world problems, though: so much attack speed your enduring mana flask can't keep up. :s

just killed 3rd watch stone hunter and he dropped awakened vicious projectiles, i'm a bit new and it looked really good so i replaced my deadly toxin in my 6 link power siphon for it, good move?

Hmm not really, you can replace like unbound ailments with it or something (or vile toxins). Deadly Ailments is stronger. I dont *love* vicious because of less attack speed tho.

Hey!

I've played this character whole day today (after switching from other build) and I must say I really enjoy it! Still a little lost and I'm making stupid mistakes, but it's really good.

Could you guys have a look what could be good upgrades for me? I have around 15exalts still that could be used somewhere. Trying to craft a better wand but unclucky so far.

And yeah, I'm playing with Devouring Diadem and I think it's been really good so far.

For 15ex I would probably go with explody chest, such a huge clear speed upgrade (alternatively good tailwind boots). Also I would recommend trying to grab diadem with ailment duration focus mod, its so good.

Lol, those look great. Well at least for single target like +4 mana gained on hit makes PS sustain itself but when mapping I am running constantly out of mana as well with so much AS, but eh.

Also, added new gameplay vid:

Shore Lvl 90 (Zerphi's Heart + Poison Sextant)

I decided to record this because its absolutely *hillarious* :d

PS is not an issue. I've got enough mana leech to sustain PS on single targets.

It's the almost 6 kinetic bolts / second. :)

I have to drop one life/ev node and thrill seeker for arcane chemistry, so that i get more mana from the flask. sigh.

YOu can also always go for - flat mana cost of skills on your rings, that should be more effective than arcane chemistry.

It is not cheap though to find all the mods I'd need together with that, whereas I can sustain everything now with my enduring mana flask.

And we finally got it, boys:

To be honest I just don't feel like I need explosions that much because clear is amazing anyway, and extra survivability from Belly is really useful for bosses. But I'll experiment soon, I'm still new with this char:)

What mod are you talking about exactly? I can't google any enchants that give any bonuses for ailments.

Lost 30% exp today. Now I remember why I despise evasion builds with no MoM/EB.

Ah, then you can go for like frenzy on hit chest instead, or some other nice conqueror mod, there is a lot of fancy stuff to get on chest :d (even attack crit is really nice).

And for the ailment mod, I mena this:

Divine Flesh or Wind Dancer, both work really well with this setup.

Wait, you can actually use Divine Flesh with Antivenom and The Golden Rule? To take basically 50% less elemental damage? It sounds like an ultimate elemental damage reduction.
