[3.4] Teleports Behind You - Poet's Pen Lightning Warp & Arc, MF / Facetank t16 / Shaper / U. Elder

.

Just a quick question guys, how do we manage to survive the Atziri ( 4 guys) scenario? I mean, its super easy untill I reach Atziri´s room, once the 4 guys appear, I´m instantly down when BL hits one. I put out Herald but didnt solved it, I guess its Arc which makes trouble as well, which skill gem should I swap in?

Up to what tier the MF version is viable? And wich maps you guys recommend for?

And what about Vall Arc in this build?

How do you stand still in that Facetank Minotaur video?

If I hold swift I still Warp like crazy, lol

Update, nevermind... two weapon sets :)

So is Alira really the best choice, over 2 passives? Mana regen and resist just seem like they could be had elsewhere.

Hello!

Just a quick question. Why is it better Frenzy than Power Siphon? Both have the same attack speed, both can be linked to Faster Attacks... am I missing something?

Thanks!

Frenzy gives frenzy charges on hit ;)

I also have a question for the more knowledgeable here. What is the reasoning behind choir of the storm? Seems like a rare amulet with 35 crit multi, crit chance, 80 hp, maybe a mana roll and spell damage seems better defensively and offensively and they should be about the same price, maybe the rare amulet will even be cheaper. Please enlighten me :)

Shock Nova, sounds like reflect is killing you. I never had trouble with ball lightning shock Nova

Works up to t16 if you're careful. But if you want to MF AND level up, probably should stick to about t11 bc it gets squishy with full MF.

Haven't tried vaal arc

15 critical multi is worth one skillpoint.
The real question is how high do you value resist? Is it worth one skillpoint?


The finished build requires a ton of uniques. Even with mirror worthy resists gear on boots, ring, and gloves, you would still probably need resist on a few jewels. 15 all resist is worth almost as much as 2 jewel affixes. Considering a jewel in this build can cost up to 3 skillpoints, this makes the 15 allres worth 1-1.5 skillpoints (assuming all your jewels have 4 affixes). If you are poor and jewels only have 2-3 affixes, then the relative value of 15 all resist is even higher.

Basically the Akira bonus is worth it, all the way until the extreme endgame where you start minmaxing every single affix on your 4-prop jewels.

Im not at a computer right now so I can't double check in path of building ATM. But I did try doing something like that in path of building before - I believe that you lose about 10% damage by switching to a multi+critchance amulet. If you have 3 dmg mods then maybe you won't lose so much dps..... But I think 3 dmg mod amulets are way more expensive than choir? Especially if you expect them to have 80 life and Mana. Iirc choir usually gets down to like 40c in price midleague.

Choir also gives ANOTHER 5-10% more single target dps thanks to lightning strike.

Finally, 20% inc Mana gives a very competitive amount of effective hp compared to a life +Mana amulet. Remember that you want your Mana pool to be something like 43% of your life pool.

Basically choir is pretty dang cost effective for endgame shaper capable damage and ehp. If you wanted to surpass it you'd probably need a shaped amulet, actually.
