EPTAnd here I thought I had enough Lightning Res, that Arc caster pack wrecked me.
Should've checked the ladder and go a bit slower, had a 2 minutes lead.

I'm not seeing too many skill diverse discharge builds. Seems most of them just have a charge-farming skill and discharge. Also, what about Pohx's maxed everything melee ranger? lol, in the process of browsing the forums, I came across an "invasion-viable" wings of entropy build. Either there's something big I'm overlooking here, or invasion-viable doesn't mean what he thinks it means. | ||

For other builds I agree on what vara said. If you play in a party, a support culler with conduit might be to your likings, too. | ||

I guess the "invasion viable" puts some harsh requiredments on playstyle for melee, regardless of defences. | ||

I guess the "invasion viable" puts some harsh requiredments on playstyle for melee, regardless of defences. Keeping in mind the recent nerfs (less one-shots) and the fact that I'll be adopting a "skip or rip" stratagem, what kind of things will my build need to be able to handle? | ||

Like always, my Act1 was rather fast (28 min Merveil), but then I needed a long time for Act2. Killed Vaal at 1:10, so like 15-20 min later than the best guys. That demi is pretty legit O_o 29 IIR and 24 all res on a belt. | ||

Just stood up and played completly brain-afk. Had mutiple city stops with 1+ minute staying around figuring out why I wanted to go to the city. Then in act 2 I forgot to get transmutations resulting in enormous time-loss because of city stops and late crafting. Got to lvl 24. But gz on your demi!  I don't deserve one yet anyways.^^ | ||

 Was really surprised that I won, usually there are some Maras reaching like level 28 or 29.Lol, I just checked the 85 min records, and Boof is in the top3 for 4 different classes. | ||

bought an alpha's howl really thinking it would boost my dps cuz i run anger/wrath/haste crit build turns out my dps actually went down a tiny bit compared to my rat's nest oops. | ||

However, alpha howl should save you mana also if ur aura's aren't level 20 then as they level each successive level should add more damage. (aka 18->20 isn't as impactful as 20->22 afaik) Cant be frozen kicks ass btw | ||

lets say i do an attack, heavy strike, and the only elemental damage i have is 10 fire damage on a ring i have elemental equilibrium will it take effect if i follow up that attack with a frost nova? i am asking because i am wondering if it could be used in a cyclone CoC discharge build where you proc elemental equilibrium with frost damage on your cyclone and crit out a discharge of power/endurance charges. | ||

Yes. EE proc from any source of elemental dmg that is a hit. | ||

Yes, but EE is annoying as hell if you don't use it to proliferate one crazy-high burning DoT to other monsters. In your case you will more often proc a double-EE from your discharge(cold+light) because the AoE is bigger than what you will hit with your cyclone to proc the single EE with fire. Sure this can be optimized by throwing fire traps constantly, conc effect on discharge etc. but you should be aware of this problem | ||

So my EA pierces a ton of resist from fire pene, EE and flammability. EE is probably one of my favorite keystone passives, but it's hard to use effectively. It also works well with Summoners and trappers | ||
