Hey guys, currently im level 45 and turning to 46 in a bit, and idk where to get any aether crystals, really need them for crafting a relic. please tell me any locations that has good drops for my level. Thanks alot mates.
On the road to and near Homestead I found a lot. The area is for mid level such as 40-50 so it still drops a lot like in Conflagration & above Blood Grove.

Here is the reasoning behind each point:
Taking points from Temper WILL reduce your damage output, but only slightly. If you focus on fire / chaos damage, you will probably end up with 1000%+ damage modifier with a complete build on those stats (or at least one of them). A little extra pierce and physical won’t contribute anywhere near that.
Taking points from Stun Jacks - this skill is not all that good for CC. See Flashbang.
Taking 3 points from Consecrated blade - you could keeps these in, I guess the base physical on your weapon is probably small, and so 0.15x that will be very small indeed. Perhaps it’s something to put points in late game, but IMO they can be spent in better places.
Ulzuin’s Wrath point is just borrowed, but I’d only ever put 1 point in.
Flashbang debuffs the enemy DA by a huge 250 - this effectively increases YOUR OA by 250. This will increase your hit chance and so crit chance massively, increasing your DPS nicely.
Vulnerability debuffs their elemental resist, and so increases your DPS.
Static Strike 1 pointer just because.
The thing to understand is that it is not all about sheet DPS, if you decrease their elemental resist by 45%, you will deal 45% increased damage ON TOP OF everything, whereas 45% fire damage (for example) on top of 1000% you will have by the endgame is minimal. Also, enemies have high resistances, so debuffing it is necessary.
Essentially, just throw flashbang and curse onto every mob / pack of mobs you encounter. It will slow them, confuse them, and debuff them, making them less dangerous to you whilst allowing you to tear into them.
Hope that helps.
Thank you for the fast reply sir Potato.
Does flash bang and other cc work on every bosses? or the debuffs only?
For skills such as Blade Trap (from Nightblade) and Olexandra’s Flash Freeze (from Arcanist), the debuff only applies whilst the enemy is CC’ed (so trapped/frozen in these cases). Since CC lasts for less on bosses, these skills become near useless for their debuffs in boss encounters.
Both Curse and Flashbang work differently. They apply their debuff for the full duration listed, and the slow / CC comes afterwards. This means that you will always debuff their DA by Flashbang and their resists by Curse. The slow might not be as potent, and you certainly won’t confuse them, but at least the debuffs definitely work (and I’m certain the slows do too, just to less effect).
Hope this helps
