 . It's a fun build, so I'm not sure if it will ever work in HCCurrent Main single dps 4-link: Glacial Hammer + Cold to Fire level 6 + WED + Fire Penetration Main AOE 4-link: Infernal Blow + Melee Splash + Added fire damage + Melee physical damage ( this should be another WED but unfortunately I only have 1, so it would have to do for now ) Build at level 52 currently, running with Hatred & Purity. Flammability as curse. Staff Crit Templar with Avatar of Fire Finished build: Click me yay Main single dps: Glacial Hammer + WED + Cold to Fire + fire penetration + (faster attack) + (culling strike/added fire damage) Main AOE: IF + Melee Splash + Added Fire damage/WED + Multistrike + (Blood magic + Life leech) *Note: 1) Why no RT ? Well personal preference. I like crit, and my accuracy is not that low, and crit burn melts stuff  2) Staff sucks. Why not mace. I like staff. It has higher base crit, and with only 3 point investment I got 25% block, which is equal to a 6 endurance charges 2-handed build in ave phy reduction, and + Show Spoiler + I has an awesome mid level staff from EchelonTee shout-out to him for being awesome 3) Why the increase elemental damage nodes near the Templar start ? They suck. Yes their values are quite low. However there are 2 big bonus. They not only increase the main fire IF and Glacial Hammer damage, but also the cold damage for hatred & glacial hammer. Second, they increase the explosion damage of IF, which is again awesome. I definitely could use Endurance Charges, but I'm too lazy/bad to keep them up. Need to work on that though. In addition that since IF force me to go all-in or go home whenever I encounter a strong mob due to short range, so either I start the chain-explosions and kill them all, or they kill me first. In other words I still feel quite squishy going into melee range. Any solution on this ? | ||

In other words I still feel quite squishy going into melee range. Any solution on this ? 1. How are you getting accuracy exactly? If your chance to hit goes under 85% or so then crit becomes pretty much worthless as a damage increase even if it looks cool when it happens. All your crit points could also be better invested into something else as well maybe. If you're going to use crit then your decision to use staves over mace was smart, but getting the accuracy for it to be worthwhile is very demanding gear wise. Staves don't really have many accuracy nodes either. 2. The idea that 25% block is roughly equal to 24% physical reduction from endurance charges is just flat out wrong, but I don't have a problem with you using a staff instead of a mace. The real benefit would come from using both of them, but you'll get a cast when damaged gem eventually I imagine. 3. The nodes aren't bad; it is simply a matter of there being other nodes on the tree that will give you better gains so there is no point in taking them. You're a few points away from dual curse which should be wonders for your damage output with flammability/elemental weakness. This also opens options to play super defensive with temp/enfeeble on hard mobs as well. You're a point or two away from endurance charges. With the new cast when damaged gem there is no reason to not have these in your build. You don't even lose damage frames casting them anymore ^_^ I'm also questioning taking Unwavering Stance, but I'm still debating how much I value stun immunity. Losing evasion is a huge loss of damage mitigation. On November 01 2013 23:27 Sn0_Man wrote: Well I think dominus's damage is heavily elemental.

PS: Finally sold off a bunch of stuff so its nice to have some "currency" instead of all those abstractly valuable items. The bleed applied when he hits you is what does most of the damage and that is physical damage as far as I know. Unless you mean the first part, which should be mostly lightning damage (although I'm guessing the heaven smash is physical/lightning split) | ||

It was shorter than expected and the last fight was less exciting than when I fought Vaal Oversoul or Piety for first time (and much easier). Can't really judge difficulty on normal. Pretty much all of the content is doable with terrible resists as long as you have some tactics and a lightning flask to tp abuse in the piety fights. The only way It would be easier would be that you chose to facetank everything without any tactics, so I'm assuming you died to vaal smash and frost form piety?? Considering there's still plenty of easy currency being made due to people not being able to get past him on cruel I'd say he's still the hardest boss pre-map | ||

Anyone feel like giving me an idiots guide to making a not-awful Templar? I heard something about getting a Searing Touch for some builds but apparently they're kinda expensive and I've never been great at making money in MMO's or whatever. | ||

As a templar, you start off with kinda 2 options: Some "melee physical" nodes that lead to life, and some "elemental damage" nodes that lead to stuff like increased AoE. Decide if you wanna run with weapons or with spells (at least for now) and sink your points into that part of the tree (at least until level 10ish it should be pretty straight forward). Either whack people and grab HP, or zap (figuratively) people and grab like mana (and still hp when possible). Ice Nova is a very useful levelling skill TBH. Run into the middle of a large pack and press it 2 or 3 times and they all die PoE is very deep with some extremely complicated lategame builds. While it is possible to "follow a guide" and end up OK with your first character, I just recommend playing abit, getting a feel for the game, then plan out a real build and start that up. Lots of people in the TL guild are on their 3rd or so character since Launch (mostly due to them playing hardcore characters lol). PS Most skill gems you might want at low levels can be mooched off of guild members for free (post ur char name for an invite to the guild) and we can probably provide you with not-awful gear to get you rolling for a bit. I'm guessing you are in domination league since that is the default right now? | ||
