No love for the pantless old man? lol.

But yeah, I dunno, I don't think I planned this character out very well beforehand, hahah. I probably could have saved a lot of points going templar instead... although I guess the 9% cast speed is nice.

Why didn't you make a templar?

I can't stand playing templar because I really don't want to play as a crazy old man in a toga. I usually just play marauder instead

To be honest, I'm not too thrilled with any of the 6 being my avatar...

Anyone know if it's possible to have 3g2r on a 5s armor chest? I've dropped like 60+ chromatics into my 5L and I can't get it.

odds are dependent on the type of armor

for example, if your armor is all AR, then you're going to see red sockets very often

if your armor is AR + EV, then you will see a mix of green and red sockets very often

Didn't answer my question at all. I specified that my chest is Armor and was asking if it's even possible for it to be 3g2r.

I can't answer your question with absolute certainty, but I would imagine the chance would be less than 1 percent if not impossible.

If you want 3 out of 5 to be green you should try to get an eva/arm piece. I rolled some colors on my 6 slots a few times (pure ES) and never had a majority of non blue.
Chance favors the prepared mind.

Any coloring is possible yes. Everything he said is correct though.

I doubt the chances are that low, but it is certainly not easy to get. I can't remember if I read the odds being 67 16.5 16.5 or 50 25 25 though or I'd do the math.

Possible, yes. Likely, no. Worth the money you're going to dump in it, no.

The point is that armor does very little against hard hits. You need about 6k base armor to be fine against the trashmobs. anything more is not really worth it.

Evasion is a better stat to mitigate hard hits since it does not scale with the physical damage like armor does. Since evasion is NOT random, but perfectly predictable it is a good option as long as you can take the hits.

The real problem comes in with the structure of the passive three. Due to the quality of the nodes at the marauder and templar area, it is almost necessarily to go there on hardcore. Elemental adaptation alone can offer a 20 percent damage reduction for elemental damage.For this reason it is currently optimal to get about 6k armor with full life.



The real problem is that dex is a terrible stat and str is a 100% superior one. Not to mention as you said, all the best nodes happen to sit in the armor side of the tree.

Templar also gives you the most GG Quest Rewards. I just don't really understand the logic behind Witch not getting Reduced Mana even once and Templar gets it like 6 times... Witch builds typically aura whore just as much imo .

Google around, I'm very sure I found the odds on the forums somewhere. iirc there were cases for hybrid armors where the chances were around 47.5/47.5/5 but also where the chances were 60/35/5. What was consistent was offcolors being unlikely, multiple ones being even more unlikely obviously.

I think it's a bit sad tbh. Whenever I try to theorycraft a witch for pretty much anything I check what it would be like as a templar... and suddenly I use less skillpoints and have better stats. Buff witch/duelist plz.

it took me over 200 chromatics to get my 6link ar/es chest to roll 3 green, and i have all 6 sockets available. if only 5 were available it may have taken me more.

yes unless it uses the word "weapon".

elemental damage node = good for all elemental
weapon elemental damage node = only good for elemental attacks (lightning arrow, infernal blow, etc)

If its a party race there's usually someone running to grab waypoints for quests while the party is farming so they don't have to waste time on that. Solo racers either get lucky with gear or are very confident with the content they can rush on bare bones gear. Not very good if you actually want to have a decent shot at not losing your HC char.

I think I'm going to screw around with a HC Arctic Breath build and combo it with Temporal Chains to slow the hell out of monsters

here's the opener I got to get to Eldritch Battery starting from Marauder

more filled out build with 21 points to spare. I'm not sure if I really want to go dual totem or to even put Arctic Breath on totem right now due to mana costs.

I think links would be LMP + Arctic Breath + Pierce + Faster Casting right now but it would depend on mana regen or I just link them with Spell Totem and find out whether the monsters or totem dies first
