Even if you could do that, you lose out on disintegrate’s dot

@nery: fire aar has 290k sheet dps (about 18% higher than this build, but doesnt perform as well. 6min 30)

I tried it too. But didn’t reach even that. But wait, MH or Sorc?

sorc. i went with spellshock tome, and 24% WD conduit to squeeze in adcth and to fix res.

then did everything i could to stack flat + %damage (e.g. reckless power)

Conduit is nice, damage is insane :clap:

Does the QoL without seal is better?

Uh, just as annoying because you need to spam thermite mines and BWC.

I’ll link you the build.

DA in game is obviously higher with items because of physique bonus.

I was about to ask you about that DA :ok_hand:

27

about 2.72k. Nice thing about this is that weapon, offhand, amulet, pants - all craftable. About 80 - 100 more DA with physique

My guess is that it’s a combination of a lack of deadly aim for more consistent crit + fire damage being weaker than lightning.

Was hoping the raw damage could compensate for it, but no…not really

HI There

Is there any other rings that you can recommend if I don’t have the current ones you are using ?

Btw… how do I search fir rings with conversion ?

  1. Make sure the box below is checked on GT, then type “X damage converted to Y damage”

  2. Time-flux rings, allagast rings, or invoker rings can be used as a poorman’s substitute, though your damage would drop significantly.

Thought you might like this nery - Naked clear on your lightning AAR.

Tweaked it a little more and managed 4x naked clears in a row (~9min average) <— this is a lot less safe though, wouldn’t recommend it to newer players.

I’m sure it can be polished further, but I’m kinda okay with its current state

Also wouldn’t recommend playing naked if you’re living with your parents.

Dumb question. Are AAR the big hit atm? Do they deal ton of damage endgame or?

40

Almost nothing deals more damage end game than AAR. AAR alone can carry a monstrous build.

Just how important is the mainhand MI for this build? I’ve been using Mythical Temporal Tempest for the conversion just so I can use a +1 to arcanist in the belt slot.

Using the dagger leaves me with only 25/16 AAR so I’m missing some flat damage from the MI and the last AAR skill point. In return, I get more points invested in all the sweet arcanist passives.
