Jaamon's Notes

>>> Prepared by Jaamon (Don't forget to join my discord.That's where i chat with people / https://discord.gg/GaVvd7znTH) <<< ********** This is a Witch-Necromancer build.You can easily level with this at a new league with Zero Budget. ********** ********** Build starts as life version then transitions into energy shield at a higher budget for maximum damage. ********** ********** There are lots of different talent trees and gear sets in this POB. ********** ********** Check the equipment and talent trees depending on the progress you are at. ********** !!!! NOTE:You cannot start leveling as "Spellslinger" because it is a level 24 gem.Follow the steps below until you have it. !!!! > Detailed gem links are in "Skills" section < Have "Mana Reserve" issues? Spellslinger's mana reserve gets lower once you level the gem itself.If your spellslinger is lower level,simply play as 5-linked Volatile Dead,don't use Precision OR use a lower level Precision, annoint your amulet with Charisma. DO NOT use any auras other than Precision(Anger,Zealotry,Discipline and also Herald of Ash) until you're playing as Low Life Energy Shield version. ??? Why does my DPS seem 500k,1Mil,2Mil etc. ??? POB cannot calculate the DPS for lots of balls.Don't worry,you probably have millions of DPS <3 ***** VERY IMPORTANT INFORMATION BEFORE YOU START LEVELING ***** Not sure if it is still possible to level as spellslinger. I can't say anthing before testing it. I highly suggest you to play this build once you level the character and buy Low life gear. Also we are using mana flask with enduring mod to counter the mana cost issues after 3.15 patch. Build is still good at farming maps and killing AL9 Conquerers , Guardians. Video is already in my channel. Leveling Section (Tested in 3.14 , not sure about 3.15 after the nerfs, feel free to try it if you have spare time) If you want to craft your own wands(at a league start or maybe you're playing SSF),make sure your filter shows white items. You'll need x2 Carved Wands(magic, because they are fast), x2 Ruby rings( rare rings ,use alchemy or essence if necessary) Make sure you collect these before lvl 24 so you can craft your wands when time's come. Vendor recipe: x1 Orb of Alteration, x1 Wand(magic), x1 Ruby ring(rare) = Wand with "Fire damage to spells" Use Orb of Augmentation(for a suffix) then once you find/buy Regal orb,also use that so the wand becomes rare.Craft something at bench.(Spell damage is good) *************************************************************************************************** --- ACT 1 --- **** You need to decide how to level until spellslinger is active(after lvl 24). *** **** If you have First Snow unique jewel (probably not at league start) then Freezing Pulse+Frost Bomb is a very good option. *** **** If you don't have that jewel, play as Arc or Stormblast Miner. *** Kill Hillock.Talk to npcs in town.Get Freezing Pulse or Stormblast Mine. Get Arcane Surge Support after you do Mercy Mission quest.(Do NOT level this,lock at lvl 1 by right clicking + button) Link this to your main skill,later on link it to Flame Dash. Get Frost bomb at lvl 4.You can also take x2 Spell Cascade Support (Needed for spellslinger later on) Just use Frost bomb at big packs then Frostblink(Lvl 4) / Flame Dash(Lvl 10) through them.Use Freezing Pulse for beefy targets. Get Blastchain Mine Support at lvl 8.Only take this if you want to level as Arc miner(after lvl 12) until spellslinger. Get Added Lightning Damage at lvl 8.This is needed if you're playing as Arc Miner or Stormblast Miner. Get Added Cold Damage at lvl 8.This is needed if you're playing as Freezing Pulse. Get Lesser Multiple Projectiles Support and Combustion Support at lvl 8.(You can buy these later,these are needed for spellslinger) Get Smoke Mine at lvl 10.This is a mobility skill which really helps if you bother using it. Get Arc at lvl 12.Only take this if you want to play as Arc miner until spellslinger. !!! Time to decide now -> After lvl 12,you either start playing as Arc miner(recommended) or Stormblast Miner. If you have First Snow unique jewel (probably not at a league start) you can keep playing as Freezing Pulse until spellslinger. Without the jewel, Freezing Pulse has bad clear speed so you should play as Arc miner or Stormblast miner. Get Volatile Dead at lvl 12 for later use.Level this at 2nd weapon slot. --- ACT 2 --- Bandit choice: Help Alira for "All resists,Crit multiplier and Mana regen" Get Desecrate at lvl 16. (Needed for spellslinger) Get herald of your choice at level 16. (Herald of Ice for Freezing Pulse , Herald of Thunder for Arc/Stormblast miner.) Get Wave of Conviction at lvl 16. Get Controlled Destruction Support(For Freezing Pulse) & Elemental Focus Support(for Arc/Stormblast Miner) at lvl 18. --- ACT 3 --- Get x2 Spellslinger at lvl 24.Go get Power Siphon from Act 1 Nessa.Use this until you get Frenzy from library.(NPC in Act3-Library sells all gems) If you crafted or bought wands,now you are ready to play as spellslinger.Make sure you unlocked Sovereignty notable on talent tree. Gem links are already in "Skills" section. Get Flammability at lvl 24. --- ACT 4 --- Get Hextouch Support at lvl 38. --- ACT 5-10 --- Gem rewards stop at Act 4.Just play through campaign until you are done.Good luck!
