Goddamnit, had a soj drop for my CA DH, rolls poison damage T_T doesnt even look worthwhile to reroll it to fire. are there even any classes that use poison damage heavily? I might just reroll the dex and use it for another character

I was so sad, that's the first piece of gear that i actually need and it rolls poison

haven't gotten a cindercoat or RRoG yet

You could poison spec for DoT/Jade Harvest WD but even that's suboptimal. You're better off running cold because Haunt is a better DPS skill than Locust.

whats the max roll for element damage and vs elites damage? 20/30? i dont even think this soj is a good roll at 18/27. problem is, it has some less-than-ideal secondary rolls, so even if I reroll it to fire it's sub-par. really sad about this but I'm prolly gonna DE it

Should I bother rerolling this to fire damage?

i would DE it. LOH is bad, and it will be incredibly expensive to reroll poison skills to something better. rings requires gems.

don't salvage it. it's 1 slot in stash for a potential good ring when they decide to change elemental types next patch.

poison dmg for DH is pretty much the worst element right now. so i think they might buff it along with caltrops and stuff that do poison currently

18/27 is a slightly slightly above avg roll. range is 15-20 and 25-30

yeah, I suppose I might as well keep it in case they buff Poison. What should I reroll the LOH to if I end up using it? CC/CD?

depends on your current CD to CC ratio. if you are like 60% crit chance with 400 crit dmg go for the crit dmg, if high crit dmg low crit chance get the crit chance. for a non-dual wield build, because you have crit chance from quiver, should get crit dmg.

I wouldn't worry about the elemental damage. If you can get the LoH/Psn to roll into 50% cd or 6% cc, the dps change due to elite damage already makes it better than any perfect roll rare you can get. I'm not quite sure about the math of 50% cd or 6% cc vs Elemental damage, but I know it's a pretty big dps drop if you don't have CC or CD on SoJ.

well if you do reroll it, you should reroll the LoH anyway. rerolling the poison would result in a substandard ring in all possible situations, while if you reroll the loh it'll at least be decent in the case of a poison buff.

but yea don't do anything with it now only takes up 1 space.

prety good for a lightning monk with the resi on it, you should never salvage a soj imho, elemental/elite dmg makes it so much better than a yellow trifecta

guys I'm having some doubts on my Witch Doctor.
Fire or Poison, with pets.
Wich one should I choose?

Fire has: Super OP Gargantuan / Fire dogs / Fire fetishes
Fire fails: DPS Spell

Poison has: Weak Gargantuan / Poison Dogs / Poison Fetishes / A lot of spells
Poison fails: ?

Any chance to mixture these two?
Or maybe maximize in one?

P.S: Is physical any good?

If you're gunna go full pet build, physical is what you spec into. Key gear you should be keeping your eyes out for. Zuni set, Mask of Jeram, StarMetal Khukri (GL finding this, has less than 2% drop rate out of leg 1h's for WD, that means you'll get like 1 every 90 or so leg 1h drop). Theo & Tasker gloves.

If you're gunna do DoT build, I believe you need Jade Harvester set, and Quentcoatl Hat. I believe Cold is best to spec for, due to Haunt DPS (not 100% sure, but pretty sure). Fire Witch Doctor can work decently in early torments due to firebats.

If the published table was correct, it actually means you will get 1 for every 61 legendary "Ceremonial Knife" drops, which basically means never =(

Instead of shooting for that, try get a doombringer.

Still waiting for my 3rd Zuni piece but ironically a Doombringer did drop last night.
