Hi all,

read many of you asking about ARC version, my learning as follow:

I'm sitting @35m Dps now and 7.8k ES

My PoB here: https://pastebin.com/ratrZEhg

It's important when you are using ARC to use Energy Leech and Arcane Surge.
I've no problem at all to survive just Sirus in the last phase can one shot you, the rest is fine...I mean Simulacrum, crazy 100% Delirium maps, etc..Just avoid reflection maps.

Another very important thing is to have Harmony of Purpose in the ascendency as it adds crazy amount of dps and survivability.

Any question let me know or add me in game :)

Can anyone else vouch for Harmony of Purpose? I'm curious if anyone else went that route.

Another bonus is snagging a cheap Alpha's Howl with + power charge corruption. I'm always at full charges even on boss fights.

12% phys reduction
12% more damage
12% increased cast speed
160% critical strike chance

I dropped bastion of hope

I've got a question regarding a watcher's eye for the Arc Crit version. I think OP gave us a trade/search link for EK.

What would be a budget watcher eye solution for the Arc Crit version (up to 10ex)? Anyone has a trade search link for it ?

Regarding the damage conversion: Do we profit from lightning penetration or just cold penetration ? And do we profit more from lightning damage with wrath, or cold damage from hatred aura ?

I use Phasing while Haste + a cheap damage mod (I picked up crit chance with zealotry) for a few ex. Phasing is amazing.

Anybody tried a CoC version of this? had awakened CoC drop yesterday and interested to see how it fares. I think you'd get enough accuracy & crit chance with high level precision aura, b.faith and zealotry ?

probably rubbish with no flask charges tho (hello Sirus)

I have a CoC version of this. Its a bit different since it has 4 x Large Clusters. DPS is nice (about 3,5M DPS per Arc and 0.15s cooldown with normal CoC) but ES is a bit low at 6.5k. Got a bunch of mana reserve reduction jewels so Im able to use more endbringers instead of heraldry.

POB: https://pastebin.com/DBEujUMv

DPS goes totally nuts with vaal haste+vaal arc+vaal rf popped. Dont even have any expensive flasks like bottled faith. Also getting arcane surge from the node Arcane Heroism for boss fights is nice. Switched to a rare shield tonight and had to swap an endbringer to heraldry also, but got like +500ES and lost only a bit of damage.

I assume this is a really basic question: but the cutoff for amount of heraldry is when heralds cost 0 mana right? I'm currently runnign with -5% helm, -6% amulet, all the reduced reserve nodes on the tree, and a conqueror efficiency with -1% corrupt. So thats a total of 38% (tree) + 11 (gear) + 3% (efficiency) = 52 so i need 5 heraldries?

Hey guys quick question. so i have seen people say replacing a endbringer or 2 with replenishing presence can massivly boost your ES regen per sec. well i am at 450% auras and have tried to replace them to test out and can only reach about 2k es regen. any ideas??

Ado you dont have vitality or regen boots enchant

Okay I'm pretty set up right now currently level 87, I can't run both Haste and Vitality because I don't have the helm enchant so which one would benefit me more?

Update on this: After some mapping, Haste just feels better than Vitality but I lose a lot of ES regen, if I buy a Alphas Howl with Purity of Fire/Cold/Lightning -mana reserve will that be enough to equip vitality as well?

@horrible: you should pick up champion of the cause anoint and conquerors efficiency jewel for 6% reduced mana reservation

I ran the numbers thru POB and even with Conq Efficiency + - mana reservation on a purity I won't have enough mana to cast my skills. I actually already have Champion of the Cause Anointed, I'm really not sure what else I could do at this point... how are people getting away with level 20 Precisions with an Alphas Howl?

Edit: if I stuck an Enlightened Gem somewhere in there I could possibly get it working but then I would have to get rid of my Righteous Fire until I could afford Doryani's Delusions.

Your Chayula with 24% life converted to ES will mess with your max level clarity/precision ability the most.

I guess its just a matter of getting the helm enchant and at least one of the small cluster 30% reservation of a purity to help fit vitality in. Also lvl 21 blood magic if you dont already have it.
