spell echo support is good right now or useless?


I play with spell echo. why it should be useless? very fast buff stacking



This build is fun, but I'm hitting a point where I am just too squishy and I'm not really sure the best places to get more survivability. I'm currently level 87 and sitting at just over 4500 life (163% from the tree), with ~800 unreserved mana for MoM. Also at around 1m dps according to PoB, and I'm only running up to T10 maps right now, so I can probably afford to drop a bit. So, probably replace my amulet with a rare with life, res, and ??. I'm not sure where to go from there though...try to get %life jewels for my tree? And maybe upgrade a ring?

I only have about 1.5ex to play with, so any advice in that budget range would be appreciated.

Edit: Also just to note, I still don't have Beacon of Ruin either. Stupid Trial of Stinging Doubt hasn't spawned in 100-150 maps. I hate this game some times :/

WHY Beacon of Ruin over Paragon of Calamity??????


Beacon of Ruin is what makes Elementalist insane right now........the shock proliferation is what actually makes the clear speed of this build good........The moment I picked up Beacon of Ruin after uber lab I realized how insane it was. Your clear speed is night and day with it.


Wow. I just logged in to comment on how great the clear speed is so far. I'm at level 82 and haven't done Uber lab yet. Tbh, I didn't think that it made such a great difference. Looking forward to it now.

Red Elder down: average gear - lv.86 - 5-link
(Died just once accidentally by one single mob when phase 2 started because I was too excited :P)

Got this nice little one :)



Thanks for the build guide and the detailed leveling process :)

Hey there everyone!

I'm still doing very fine in full MF gear, chaining shaped T11 easily. Been farming up currency for late game gear the last week and a few questions about late game setups came up for me:

Inc Crit Strikes gem: I see many setups going with this. My planned POB DPS (+70% effective crit chance) is about 10% lower than having Efficacy when I slot it. What is your reason for running it? Higher freeze chance? Only as a swap for Conc Effect? Is +70% crit too low and I should go for 80% and higher?

Taste of Hate: Would give me less DPS than a Wise Oak, even unbalanced. Are the defensive parts of those flasks comparable? Is Taste of hate clearly better?


Inc Crit works best in most scenarios, but if you already have tons of crit on your gear and tree then another support can be more beneficial, whatever PoB says. 50% unbuffed crit should be enough.

Taste of hate is more desirable because it is pretty much the only form of physical damage mitigation we've got.

Always loved BV and I'm glad it has made a comeback. Really enjoying the build.
Question: I'm wonder if lvl 21BV or lvl20vBV is better. I'm leaning towards lvl21 BV but I have a 20%q vBV and I can always spin that up (lel) if you think it's better


we don't need any extra damage against trash, and against bosses burst damage is more important, so in my opinion vaal blade vortex is unquestionably better.

you need 1k more life to get comfortable. get jewels with life, take the Devotion life cluster and consider switching to a shield with 100+ life and some spell crit for mapping.
Has anyone run this with Elemental Overload?

I know some of the HCSFF streamers were but not sure of which way to go. Seems that it would be easier to hit a good DPS with EO as the gear would be cheaper, however the top end would be lower. Trying to figure out which way to go, during FB I followed this and am kinda leaning towards a variant.

I went crit on ssf and im over 7k life with 900 mana unreserved MoM and my dmg is way higher than EO.


only reason to go EO is for budget/ssf.

I found a crit chance watcher's eye and was wondering what you guys think about using HoT/HoI/Hatred with the crit chance watcher's eye? Right now I'm using HoT/HoI/HoA/Artic Armor, no MoM since I didn't really like it and I have 6k hp. I'd lose the defenses of Arctic Armor but I'd gain a lot of damage, not sure if it's worth the tradeoff though. I also could sell the watcher's eye for better 1handers, but right now I'm leaning towards using it once i get an enlighten gem.
