You said due to d3planner Zeis outperforms Trapped at 24 Yards.
Also Zeis is 80% max, right?
Every 10 yards 16% so 1,6 % / Yard.
Bonusdmg to Elites from Powerful is 35%. And therfore Zeis should outperform Powerful at 22 yards.
Or wait a minute. I guess the 20% extradmg is additive to the other %extradmg from Trapped and the 15% gives a seperate 1,15 Multiplier at the end of it if you dont have elitedmg stacked elsewhere.
This would then explain why Zeis needs 24 instead of 22 yards to outperform Poweful
BTW serration outperforms overwhelming essence @15y, so itās safe to say, especially using zeiās, that itās a must have. If you drop OE you can keep rigor mortis.
Yeah but i dont play like those skilled players. I dont use briggs to pixel, and i face-tank stuff. And if i port somewhere it is just to use Occulus-ring which is pretty often darn close to the mobs.
On the other handā¦15 yards is really no big distance. And i completly dropped Zeis atm and running Powerful + Stricken + Trapped for the RG.
Still have to find my setup but i migh give Serration another try
Zei is very poor for pushing, IMHO. Until we know how good shadow clones will be in helping out with RG (so we need or not stricken), Iāll stick with esoteric and trapped and save 3rd gem for stricken. If somehow shadow clones are reliable RG killers / helpers and you plan ahead to have one out for RG, then 3rd gem can be anything you need to fill the gap (melee dmg reduction for more toughness, bane of powerful for more overall dmg and DR vs elites, invigorating for CC immunity and increased healing etc).
Personally am considering Reilenaās in 4th cube slot, so overwhelming essence will be my passive, itās something that is always on and I donāt need to focus only on poison skills (so I can run decrepify with 100% root which is amazing vs packs of highly mobile enemies to keep them in place for whole CoE cycle). Bone prison does count for Krisb 3x dmg but it is random, you can get it when your CoE cycle is over, or when youāre feared etc, still BA dislocation is most reliable way to proc it every 2nd CoE rotation (since we wonāt have a lot of CDR).
I really think some gems need to have their primary or secondary powers revised and updated, so nothing is useless, and open up more build diversity.
My sims were including reilena in 4th slot, itās the best synergy with the set.
Nice catch on invigorating, didnāt think of it. Coming from DH which is immune by default, having to worry about CC is a pain, really.
Donāt ask me, Iām only saying what d3planner tells on bone spear damageā¦ Swap passives, compare, find the distance at which they are almost the same, thatās it.
Unless D3P is wrong of courseā¦ it usually isnāt though.
Yeah I was just saying +40 essence is not that much in resulting damage.
Donāt forget to think about how much 40 essence (or 80 if simulacrum counts) is relative to your entire pool. Itās like DIBS.
Technically itās the same as max discipline on DH with UE. Itās huge at the start, the more you have, the lesser you get from it.
Yeah, woulve been lost without you. You are the light at the end of the tunnel, the gem of my life, the reason to stand up every morningā¦ahh, just cant embrace you enough
