Hi! Sorry if this was touched on earlier, but I didn't see anything directly speaking to this...

I'm new to using PA but it says that X amount of physical damage is converted to chaos damage. Why then does the skill tree spec in to projectile damage as opposed to physical damage? Is it a scaling thing? Does the projectile damage help with the cloud produced from the PA?

Just curious, thanks a ton!

"

is there any difference between cobalt/veridian/the other one?

I read the wiki but it was impossible to understand lol, thanks!

1st recommendation is grab a cheap 5 link bow and Alt spam it to get +2 bow gems. This will result in some of the best damage increase just by improving the PA level immediately.

As for single target damage, grab a Flame Totem and link that to whatever gems you like/have available (e.g. faster projectiles, fire penetration, etc).

Now during game play throw your totem, curse your single target with Vulnerability and then PA them to an early grave. Vulnerability is key here as it increases by one third our damage over time (DOT) damage which in this case would be the PA degen, plus the burn from the Flame Totem.

The other key factor here is your Flame Totem is likely to stop your enemy in his tracks as he deals with that threat, which means he's sitting in your chaos cloud the whole time. Perfect :)

EDIT - Oops, just noticed you're comment about being lvl 46. That's pretty low for PA but I was also using it around then. You won't be able to craft +2 on a bow unless it is an ilevel 64 but you can probably pick up an already crafted one from poetrade for a few chaos that is both ilevel 64 and a low required level so you can equip it sooner. That's what I did and from memory there were a few required level 51 bows that had the +2 bow gems mod.

Everything else about the Flame Totem still holds true at your current level.

Also, team up in a party for some quick leveling. Let the grunts take care of the single targets while you assist or help with crowd control. One great advantage of PA is the ability to rip into enemy health immediately without have to erode the energy shield first. This can be a big help in parties!

I'm getting really frustrated.

2k or so fusings.

No six-link.

I was hoping to have the bow 6L'd before doing a video update. I think I might just go ahead and Vorici it so I can get the new video up before the middle of next week.
