I you dismantle low level Epics or Legendaries, not only you get Scraps but some rare Mats.
Aether Crystal you know where to farm I suppose.
Dismantling just Greens // Yellows for Scraps can be fine too I guess but might a a waste of dynamite if you have lots of low lev purples and blues.

87

yes :slight_smile: thank you
im out of iron bits so time to farm a bit

88

I personally never filter out any greens but sell them all.

89

also I tested a bit on testing dummy
maul proc 4 times and counts as usual atack and can crit (even if first hit was not crit) so it could proc crit procs from items\ (atlest it proc ice spike) so maul underrated for crit builds if it true
for sure its not frostburn i remove frostburn dmg

90

I don’t think Maul can proc other things, you probably had other attacks working.
Even if it did it’s not a biggie because you usually have many and faster attacks that can proc item procs.

91

I mean with crit chance around 10%on bosses it could work(also maul works on every boss), if you dont think that maul can proc ice spike I could video tomorrow, ok?

92

Sure.

becouse i have not iron bits for reseting star pact for today) already sold ingredients for testing

94

Not sure what Star Pact has to do with it but if you’d like more OA to crit Dummies you can always hit the ones in Normal, they have less DA

95

without nem I have around 7% chance on normal dummy pretty sure they are scale with player’lvl. becouse on bosses on absolute (already did hidden path) i have 10% and fighting spirit enabled. it spikes from 0 to 10% depends on fighting spirit and nems atacks (and debuffs)

also I start collect usefull green,blue,purple items for next builds

becouse its my first build and didnt know about game

96

starpact did frostburn damage. its is only resourse for frostburn for me. so I want to see only maul’s ticks dmg on testing dummy

97

You can proc Maul with a skill that doesn’t have Weapon Damage, for example Panetti.
Panetti won’t have your Frostburn damage from Startpact or any other damage source.

98

but maul still proc ice spike. ok will see tomorrow. I show my current build, remove starpact and buy item from fort icon xD) and show it on video

99

I told you, you don’t have to remove Start Pact if you use Panetti to proc Maul because Panetti doesn’t have Weapon damage so it won’t apply your Frostburn from Start Pact.

100

I use forcwave… why should I use panetti? i dont understand (((
ok now I understand you offer to remove only 1 skill for panetti

101

The way this game works is all your flat damage sources such like Frostburn from Starpact are only added to skills that have Weapon Damage such as Forcewave and scale withh this Weapon Damage

so for example if you have 150% weapon damage on your Forcewave you get well 150% benefit of your Startpact’s flat Frostburn
but Panetti has 0% Weapon damage and it doesn’t benefit from it.

102

ok lets try

103

yeah, only 1p into Panetti and try to proc Maul with it

104

first and last atack with ice spike from maul dmg. is it ok if russian language, i can video on english?

better watch on 0.25)))
bettter to test still witout star pact and soulrend. but I already tested ( w/o video)
will test later again without items im tired a bit
