But what is "% Effect of shock"? I see no difference in PoB...[/quote]

While a monster is shocked you deal to the enemy x times more damage.
With inpulsa's Y increaced effect of shock, the X will be increased by Y percent.[/quote]

I dont mean "increased Damage if you have Shocked an Enemy Recently"
I mean "increased Effect of Shock"

Maybe its the shockdurration but in PoB i see only ignite duration/stun duration.
And the stun duration is always the same no matter wich inpulsa i virtually equip
(one with "25% increased Effect of Shock" and one with "35% increased effect of shock")
Id like to understand what iam equipping - but this i dont get ^^

PoB assumes that your shock always increases the damage taken by 50%, which is the maximum possible. This is highly misleading and inflates the shown DPS massively. It's the reason why Beacon of Ruin is so good: Our shocks always increase damage taken by at least 20% and this can be scaled with shock effect for even more damage.

Ok, have to read this several times ^^
Sounds like this is the answer iam looking for.

edit:
checked the dmg in PoB - also no difference... :([/quote]

Just read closely what I've just said...

Hi, newbee here and im currently following your build. What unique weapons would you recommend for this until i get shaper weapons? Or are rares with good rolls are better than unique weapons? Or should i focus on getting those unique armors first?

This is what I have so far, (Snagged mace for 130c) Thinking of picking up a dagger and a brightbeak so I can have a switch for bosses. (brightbeak + shield for maps)

This by far has been the best build I've done so far!

Any input on where I should focus my next upgrade or is the Brightbeak (tied with shield) and a dagger (to go with mace) the best choice atm?

So I have a couple quick questions I still have after reading all the FAQ and a couple pages of the guide... (I skimmed through a few with ctrl+F to no avail)

-How can you part ways with your mana flask? After switching all my pots to the recommended ones, I hopped into a quick Torture Chamber T12 map just to test the waters (even tho I know I can easily clear T15/16) and once the boss did his laser attack I realised that I simply had nothing against that kind of constant DOT effect. Should I just keep one in my inventory for maps like these?

-I feel like my DPS is not so close as to what it should be, taking me up to a few minutes to beat Hydra / Chimera. Should I start thinking about putting my currency in a stat stick? Here's the gear I roll with atm:



(I kept a quicksilver equipped because my brain is hard wired to press 3 to go faster, it will take a while to break that habit and use another flask lol)

Anyway, if y'all got a couple more tips I could put to use, I would gladly appreciate it. Very fun build to play, I'll probably get this one to be my first lvl 100!

Holy moley! I love this build but for the love of god, please put your pob link somewhere easier to access, not within a spoiler within a spoiler :'D

Love this build and trying it out right now :)

I have around 4ex to spend but I have a hard time deciding what to upgrade first. If I should get my 6L or get x2 daggers for bosses, (I run brightbeak+shield for mapping and bosses atm). Or if I should upgrade my jewels which are pretty bad.

Also I dont know what I should go for next in the talent tree, I was thinking of going for Exceptional Performance nodes.

Any help would be appreciated.

Yo bois.
I'm started this build recently,only leveling now(lvl 50),but from lvl 46-47 i started lacking damage a lot,some blue/yellow mobs takes a 10 seconds to kill with 10x blades on.
Im watched all guides sections,but not saw a solution for low dps during some leveling areas.
Can someone check my character HairOfTheDog_BV and tell what i missing.
2x axioms are on,skill tree like in the leveling guide.

Where are we getting the lightning conversion from?

in places like underground sea + sextants it gets way out of hand.


Charge into a large pack and the game just freezes up for 2-3 seconds because it cant handle the calculations of stuff like beacon of ruin.

just died at 95% into lvl 96 cus my game froze up after killing a huge pack nem mobs+ hunted traitors with ice bearers everywhere.
