My damage feels really bad, clear is great but bosses in high reds take forever, i feel kind off like a glass cannon too. anyone cares to take a look at my character?

Honestly im fine with not doing much damage, but dying all the time is really frustrating

Defense

1. Evasion Issues

You basically have 0% Evasion.

That could be the reason why you are dying all the time.

I see that you swapped Grace for Haste, and your gear don't have much Evasion based ones e.g. Gloves are ES base, Boots are Armour based.

Which means your only evasion source is practically just Frostferno(Which is very little) and that single blind on hit Abyss jewel which only gives 50% evasion after the enemy is blinded. Before the enemy is blinded, you are basically eating 100% of the enemy shots.

After you get hit, Wind Dancer's Keystone's

"20% more Evasion Rating if you've been Hit Recently"

can only boost that Frostferno's meager 579 Evasion which basically does nothing.


My suggestion would definitely be using back the Grace Aura and to convert to some Evasion Based Gear when you can(I see your gear is pretty good so might be hard to find an evasion based replacement easily), after which, Wind Dancer and Blind on Hit can be a more effective and better layer of Defense.


2. Setting up Enlighten for Auras and getting 2x -Mana Source

The next thing will be going for 2 x -mana craft. I see both your rings happen to be able to craft Prefix on them so you can go for 2x "Non-Channelling Skills have (-7) to Total Mana Cost" bench craft on them. This will ensure you always have mana to cast your Level 1 Immortal Call when it's triggered which is 25% Less Damage, very very important.

After that is done, work on getting Level 3 Enlighten and linking it to Grace + Skitterbot + Precision so they will reserve less mana.

The final step will be leveling your Cast When Damage Taken to level 10 and Immortal Call to Level 12. This will provide another additional 5-6% Less Physical and Elemental Damage.

All this Damage reduction is calculated Multiplicatively so they really help a lot.


DPS

Your gear is pretty good now, the biggest DPS upgrade you are missing is a +2/+4 Frostferno.

Besides that, you can go for a corrupted Quill Rain with 14-18% Increased Critical Strike Implicit, this is a smaller DPS boost compared to Frostferno's but much cheaper also.

Also, I think you might have used the wrong Catalyst on your Rings. I saw Intrinsic(Attribute) Catalyst on your Rings, should have been Turbulent(Elemental) Catalyst.


I hope the above helps.

Regards

hi, i am sorry cant find info in guide probably u answered this before, but i dont getm sometimes my blood rage buff refresh when my ballistas kill somebody but most of the time no, same with onslaught on kill while affected by haste watcher, i dont get how it works, sorry for bad eng i hope u can understand :D

Hi,

The reason for everything you say is because when the enemy dies from Ignite Damage, it is counted as our kill, so our Blood Rage buff will refresh, etc.

Totem kills doesn't count as our kill so they won't refresh Blood Rage.

Hope that explains.

Regards

And I have a tip for you to add to your big DPS since you are not using Ancestral Bond. Wave of Conviction for Exposure if you don't mind the additional button

Im at 100% hit chance without precision so i can just skip that, right? enlighten i can buy but only got 2 ex atm and i think best move is to spare for a +2 frostferno, seems like a big dps boost ( i hope )

Raider gets -20% elemental exposure already from ascendency so I don't think that will work

Elesshar posted a new veiled crafting video and the helmet is actually easier to make than it was last league.

Once you isolate 30% more elemental damage + Hypothermia, all you need to do is
1. Craft 3 modifiers
2. Craft suffixes cannot be changed
3. Aisling bench (removes suffixes cannot be changed)
4. Unveil and pray
5. Craft the other two +1 stats



The reason you couldn't do this last league as you could not use Aisling bench while there was a crafted modifier on the item. This league you are able to do that.
