My sceptre has some legacy mods, beginning with the multi-mod.



* If you play in Standard, you can find similar pieces by searching Sceptre, with increased cast spell and elem dmg as extra chaos dmg :

You're talking about 8ex bare minimum, and more probably around 15ex.

* Here is another research with Wands :
Cast speed, elem as extra chaos, lightning dmg to spells, inc spell dmg :

* More expensive, adding "non-chaos dmg as extra chaos dmg" :

so yeah it doesnt excist anymore :) I saw the prices. Thought lets craft one but I was away for several months...this is what you get in return removed items hahahaha.

Mwahahah, LT is buffed like crazy in 3.17 !

Give Flameblast, Lightning Tendrils and Ice Spear some improvements to make them great skills for dealing high damage against a single target.

At last we will have our revenge !

"

Lightning Tendrils: Now deals 1 to 4 Lightning Damage at gem level 1 (unchanged), up to 55 to 1052 at gem level 20 (previously 37 to 703). Stronger Pulses now deal 200% more Damage with Hits and Ailments (previously 100%). Now has 100% Effectiveness of Added Damage at all gem levels (previously 65%).

So that's 49% more flat dmg at level 20, then triple dmg for the Stronger Pulse (instead of double) and 53% more added effectiveness (100/65).
All in all, that will feel GREAT !



On the other hand, Cast While Channeling is nerfed, but Crackling Lance receives a huge buff, comparable to LT, so I think that LT CwC CL will still feel good for farming :)

Any chance we can get PoB for 3.17 or some tips?

Man, I've been waiting for days to get the PoB update.
Can't wait to see the new numbers !
I expect smth like 70% more dmg for LT.

So yes, there will be updates and improvements for 3.17, don't worry.
(There won't be much changes to the skill tree compared to 3.16.)



The dark side will destroy the Atlas... Navali has foreseen it !

Hi Exiles,

here is the
3.17 update

PoB : https://pastebin.com/nW8TbrSD

The DPS has doubled !



In 3.16, my Stronger Pulse had 4.3M DPS.
In 3.17, 9.3 !!

116% more, or *2.16 !

After all these years, self-casting LT feels good at last !
It's really amazing, you can FEEL that you channel the power of the dark side !

But you might say that I deal huge dmg thx to my legacy sceptre :


All right, I agree.
But to prove my point, in the PoB, I have included the very cheap Singularity unique sceptre and the stronger pulse still deal 6.6M DPS.



New features in 3.17

1) Purity of Elements replaces Wrath.
You're now immune to all elemental ailments, on top of being curse immune. And it's a child's play to cap your res.
Considering you have +20% all res on the helmet for instance :


In the PoB, you'll see that my elem res are now way overcapped. I'll try to lower some of them and get more chaos res instead.

2) Removed Arcanist Brand, now that Assassin's Mark is permanent. One manual cast per boss fight. The Mark even stays on phased bosses like the Elder Guardians.

3) Wrath is now linked with Divine Blessing. So you get it for 10sec each time you cast it, with an increased effect.

/!\ PoB does not correctly apply Divine Blessing, so Wrath is still treated as reserving mana.

And here is a first demo video with these new features :

#1 : Divine Wrath



Now that the build feels strong, I have decided to start Archnemesis league with it. Some act 1 gameplay is shown at the end of the video.

Hope you like it, good luck and have fun :)

the POB does not work for some reason. (NVM , POB just had an update . Sorry)

PoB in league :

https://pastebin.com/pnaBj0Lu

Level 39, farming Dried Lake act 4

Mind Over Matter, Eldritch Battery.
Frost Shield, Assassin's Mark
Wrath + Divine Blessing
(still not correctly calculated in PoB, Wrath is counted as reserved on mana).

Good luck and have fun :)

PoB level 60 in league :
https://pastebin.com/D2gFYJ6p

Beginning act 8.
Cruel Lab done.

* 4L Orb of Storms : Innervate + Faster Casting + Chain.

Purity of Elements, Frost Shield, Discipline.

I want to specify that all stuff so far is solo self-found.
My only lucky drop is the sceptre with +1 lightning spell, that I've found farming the Docks in act 3 :
