Hi Ceryneian!
Great guide--I'm loving the build. I'm thinking about my first big ticket purchase and considering going for the 2 abyssal socket tombfist with high life/added lightning roll abyss jewels. I have maybe 2 exa in currency not counting fusings right now. What do you think? Thanks! |

" Hi bud, nice kit! Yes Tombfist and good jewels are worth the currency for sure as they will give both high dps and defense increase. Be sure to get the right jewel so you can get Intimidate, and jewels should have some life on them as priority if you can, then damage mods. Otherwise rest of your kit looks good, only other thing to upgrade would be your amulet - to get one with more damage if you can but otherwise it's fine. |

" Hi! I'm particularly interested in your theory using Marauder using a 1H sword. Any tips using a LS build with a Jugg using a Grelwood Shank? I'm running this league a Molten Strike Jugg and trying to figure out how to make it work efficiently using Lightning Strike, with the tankyness it offers, if viable at all. Thanks!

" Hi thanks for checking out the guide. Since you are looking for efficiency unfortunately it is hard to justify playing melee / point-blank LS when there are other skills that you can swap in like MS give much higher damage in melee range. LS projectiles cannot shotgun like Molten Strike, so you will see a DPS loss if you try to use LS point-blank vs. Molten Strike (this why sometimes you see people run LS for the ranged AOE clear and keep a MS set up for the single target for bosses). So your setup right now is already efficient. Even if you socket Ancestral Call with LS and manage to do "double hits" with LS projectile + melee hit -> I don't think your DPS will surpass a Molten Strike build. I may be wrong but that's my guess. To me the strength of LS is that you can play range with high APS (multistrike) and whirling blades, so despite my DPS being lower than meta builds, being ranged helps and cuts down on A LOT of risk allowing me to do hard bosses - as you can see most of the bosses I am killing at edge of screen. So if you really want to do Grelwood Jugg with LS - yes we can make it work! but it's not going to be terribly efficient. Editado por útlima vez por Ceryneian#3541 en 5 jul. 2018 4:15:33

I can't find a single decent Dagger for this build on poe.trade. Think Claws are a good option too? If so, should I look for the same stats on the Claw as the ones recommended for daggers?
Edit1 : how much of the tree would you say is going to change? Just swapping from the dagger nodes to Soul Raker? Edit2 : I cant find a good claw either, what the hell. ps: sorry if the questions have already been answered Editado por útlima vez por dotlegend5#7536 en 7 jul. 2018 6:02:41

" Hi bud, yes you can use dagger/claw/sword - just swap the nodes and look for same stats. For nodes you want to focus more on nodes giving you crit and APS, and not on nodes giving phys damage. |

Ive been curious as to how much currency this build needs in it to start i.e being able to clear low yellow tiers up to around t 11. I imagine choir of storms is almost necessary and so is lycon. So around 1.5 ex for other gear besides those two?
|
|
So I want to play a build very similar to this, and I was testing out items in Path of Building, and when I equiped a Choir of the Storm, my DPS didn't go up at all.
Did this happen to you aswell? I imagine 50% lightning damage should have shown up as a massive boost to my dps. |

" That's weird, post your link and I can take a look |
