Tatiantel2's Notes

Build made by Tatiantel2 If you have any questions/suggestions - feel free to ask in chat on https://www.twitch.tv/tatiantel2 ----IMPORTANT---- When equiping Three Dragons Helmet it's important to have an Abyssal Jewel with "Adds X to X Cold Damage to Spells" Three dragons Helmet makes it so that your fire damage Shocks instead of Ignite. So in order to proc Ignite for Combustion Support and Immolate Support, our spells need to do at least 1 Cold Damage. So 1 modifier at Abyssal Jewel that gives Cold Damage to Spells is enough. Switching to Flameblast totems at level 38 - because at this point we can have enough AoE and Cast Speed from tree for skill to feel good Conqueror's Longevity Viridian Jewel - quest reward from The Wings of Vastiri quest in Act 8 In Configuration -> Custom modifiers I have this line: 90% less cast speed We have to have it because otherwise PoB (Version 2.13.0) calculates Full DPS for Flameblast totems in a wrong way (it multiplies Average Hit by Cast Rate, and it's 10x more than actual DPS).
