Randomly playing around with Chief tonight. No ascendancies are selected. I actually am only using two Ascendancy points (or my interpretation of them) through the config box. I guess I would use Hinekora, but then honestly dont even have another option. When someone figures out ngamahu better I might sub it in. It seems like new Chieftan might go well with Annihilating Light. You get a bunch of res from Tasalio. The extra res to get 90% all res isn't that bad since you are probably taking Purify of Fire as it is. This is just so

If EC was a well designed skill then the interesting aspect (flask usage) would be extremely beneficial to the skill. As it is, this is not the case. &x200B; This isn't going to be a math heavy post, but long story short, you can only regenerate so many flask charges, and that number is way lower than what you need to constantly use sapphire/topaz flasks outside pure mapping. The new sapphire/topaz flasks are quite good, but really only modestly better than just slapping on a diamond flask and require massive investment to sustain. The recent 3.21 change to EC which makes you use massive am
Explosive Concoction is both the worst designed skill in PoE and my probable league starter

When Frostferno was in the game, EC had a 5.5 link with +8 gems that was highly possible to use. You would take Avatar of Fire, get a double corrupted Frostferno and now you had a cool non traditional setup. It was reasonable to use sapphire at least due to cold to fire on Frostferno. Frostferno is gone now though. After a lot of PoB work, I am of the strong opinion that EC is better off without Sapphire/Topaz flasks. This, imho, basically makes it a broken gem. 1) It takes solid investment to get the flasks to be useable over a longer period. If you go pathfinder, you have very little sy
Explosive Concoction is a goofy skill that minimally rewards topaz/sapphire flask usage
