hello, again, sorry if i post replies too much but i just got this and tried to counter-check avg dmg and dps of fully buffed 1-stage BF (power 3/3, frenzy 3/3, onslaught) vs Death's Hand (same but with Unholy Might) and it turns out that this is stronger (+2,971.1 avg damage; +23,803.8 total DPS).

-
If it is stronger, then is there going to be some changes with my tree? or I better become a pure physical dual wield crit slayer that has an added fire damage (+herald of ash) ?

Dont get mad at me, i just want to understand.

How can the 30% Chaos Damage be further boosted when 30% Elemental Damage wouldnt. They both rely on Physical Damage, it's basically the same only that chaos faces lower resistances and pierces shield.
I'm pretty sure that we can scrath the DD part but i also got some numbers showing the different DPS sources below:

I dumped that build with all my items into PoB and picked as target The Shaper which has 40 Elemental and 25 Chaos Resistances.

Death's Hand at Stage 1 Blade Flurry, Unholy Might checked.
278.121 DPS (834k DPS on Stage 6 Release)
2921 Bleed DPS
119 Ignite DPS
917 Poison DPS

Off hand with 40% Fire and Cold Damage gain, Unholy might unchecked.
339.143 DPS (1.017m DPS on Stage 6 Release)
2921 Bleed DPS
415 Ingite DPS
780 Poison DPS


Death's Hand seems to be a good and cheap damage offhand but it seems to me that if you have some ex to spend a shaped elemental off hand has more potential DPS to offer. In addition to that you could also get more usefull stuff like Crit Multi or Accuracy on those.


If i overlook something i'd like to excuse myself, but unboosted 30% Chaos damage vs 25% Res cannot compete with 80% Elemental damage vs 40% Res.
Again i just want to understand your reasons to still prefere death's hand, i just want to be more effective :)

Thanks for taking your time

Let's give it a try, hope it wasnt wasted money :D

Yes, good luck, I hate wasting time playing half convert build with no penetration. I have 1.8m dps at stage 6 against Shaper with DH but who knows, you can't sustain these numbers all the time.

Hello,

I'm having trouble doing end game maps at the moment. I got one shot by the boss in core map, and some other maps as well. Can you check my character again and tell me what I need to do? Thanks for any help. Also what items should I upgrade at this point? Should I buy acuity now or better spent on upgrading other items first?

Hello. So I've got a 5l belly of the beast (B-G-R-R-R) that I can run but, I also have a 4l BoR (currently B-G-R-R), which one do you think would be better and what supports should I run?
