Re: Path of Exile

Yea, I just had not played either my templar or my duelist since March 6th when they shot that patch out.

So here is my plan:

Quill Rain
Elemental Hit
Elemental Equilbrium
Elemental Damage nodes+Gear (NO ELEMENTAL DAMAGE ON EQUIPMENT!!)

Thoughts?

Elemental Hit is random not a fixed rotation.
Which makes Elemental Equilibrium + Elemental Hit a RNG build to the max.

I don't understand NO ELEMENTAL DAMAGE ON EQUIPMENT? ?

Correct, it is not a fixed rotation, but with 3+ attacks per second, I dont think it will be that bad.

No elemental damage on equipment meaning no +4-5 cold damage or whatever, because every attack will deal cold damage, giving the monster +25% resistance to cold, making elemental hit feel badsies.

I think your scaling might not be what you want. The flat elemental dmg scales really really well. As does Hatred, Wrath, and Anger. And you would basically be running an elemental build without the things that scale the best.

Though there are enough variables here that a test case is a better study than theory crafting.

My elemental hit gem is extremely under leveled for my templar. It was doing moderate-decent damage in cruel act 3, but I think with a level appropriate elementa hit I would be ok?
