Crusader plate gives me 40k armour unique plate gives me 48k Whats better no crit damage or 6% reduction?

They seem very close. I wonder if the never take criticals is better than the 6% reduction and loss of other stats.

After finishing my first build and wracking my brain trying to figure out what to play next I re-read the patch notes looking for anything that popped out. The ignite changes are what prompted my first build, but the changes to Scorching Ray and Searing bond really caught my eye. Yes EE is effectively dead for these skills, and EO is literally dead (they can't hit therefore can't crit whatsoever), but their base damages were raised so enormously (exactly 58% more for both) that it doesn't even matter. In addition, no longer needing a 4l to proc both EE and EO and just straight getting almo

One of my all-time favorite builds is back baby! At face value SR totems seem like an absolute meme, but I've been playing the build every other league or so since 3.15, and have a mildly successful build series about it on my YT channel from 3.16. It caught a solid nerf in subsequent leagues due to various changes, but with the latest change to Hierophant's Arcane Blessing ascendancy notable, and the curse changes from last league, it's absolutely back. The general idea is to get 4 Scorching Ray totems and 9 Searing Bond totems through the use of Phantasmal Searing Bond, which grants an ad

The Build The endgame setup should look like this: You max out on your Scorching Ray totems and then add as much Searing bond bois as you can alongside them without replacing the Scorching ray totems. The reason for this is because every additional totem active adds 5% mroe damage to everything and since searing bond comes with +3 to additional totems and we can add multiple totems on top of it they are the perfect choice in a build that relies on DoT damage which simultaneously buffs them. You need to hit an enemy with Flame dash or cast it twice to apply Arcane Surge. Additionall
