Show what you have !

I have actually shared it somewhere on github, and few ppl tried. But its not ready for public yet, bugs, documentation, plus I tried to replace some code with lambda and change the UI to java fx, u know. Still running it out of eclipse)

 

An update on my stats. Been two months since my last one, and my DPS has grown to over twice what it was

@18667.8 DPS


Should easily go over 20K when I finish getting all my items to atleast 3/4, but that will take some time as I'm currently taking it very slow again. Playing so much in the first month back kind of made me sick of the game again xD

 

Nice DPS but it's not the only important thing for a mage

I'd surely use the mana talent as it'll give you the ability to use more ice spheres or lightning strikes... I wouldn't be able to play with 100 mana XD

Your dmg, crit and critdmg are pretty well balanced

 

I don't do any bossing (only reason I would do it is to get leg items for crafting, but I'm not there yet), so extra mana isn't really necessary. If the mobs are clumped up enough, which they almost always are if I use my guardian/have a tank, the mana regen from FS is enough 90% of the time to spam it non stop, maybe having to use a few magic missiles every now and then.

Anyway, I will most likely pick up that talent eventually, but currently I am only level 42 wisdom so I would have to trade some damage for it

 

jeez you gotta teach me how to craft lol i cant get the hang of it and what u said is confusing to me :$

 

Those critical hit stats are incredible. Finally having acquired the dark armor set (helmet, pauldrons, gloves and even armor as I can't find anything better as of yet for armor), using the dunes of desolation set (+1500 critcal hit bonus), karabossa boots and cape, I still cannot push further than 40% critical hit chance. I'm curious where you guys get the double critical hit chance seeing how everyone seems to keep their left side on critical damage and the weapon on full damage. Maybe some of you can share which items they increase their critical hit chance significantly from.
Thanks!

 

Just thinking of one of many examples off the top of my head: 2x Bloodtooth, a 4% crit gem from last year's Christmas event, and the 4/5 Darkness and you are already sitting at +119% crit hit rate. That means that you could get to the 80% crit mark with only 4053 crit. One gold crit line on a 2H can easily be worth 2000-2100 at LVL 55, and a crit belt or amulet or weapon adornment could easily get you 1000-1100 each at 55. And if you don't care about speed and are going for a FS build, you can use crit gems on you weapon adornment (250 each for flawless). So, a gold crit line on the weapon (2000), a belt with 1000 crit, the 640 (or more) crit from the darkness armor, and 1x250 onyxes, and you'd hit 3890 crit*2.19= 8519 crit= 76.78% crit rate while leaving your amulet and weapon adornment available to be full crit damage at 50%-64% each. Alternatively, if you don't want any crit on your weapon, and you've upgraded your darkness armor to 54, you get 760 crit from there, you get belt/weapon adornment with 1000 each, and 5x250 onyxes, and you've got 4010*2.19=8782=79.14%.

TLR,
At end game, it is easy enough to come up with combinations that can get you to near 80% crit rate, but you still need to consider balancing DPS overall. Lots of crit with no crit damage means that you will miss out on DPS. Lots of crit, but low damage means you lose DPS... Balance.

 

Crafted this a few days ago.Im pretty happy with it xD

 

At first I was like "meh"... then I realized it's a 1H . Nice!

 

Yeah. Assuming I did the math right, about 960 dps on the weapon with 5 royal rubies, and about 858 dps on the weapon with 5 sacreds. Maybe 1100 or more if leveled up to 55?

 

Pew pew pew... Nice!

 

VERY nice! Congrats!

 

as I crafted new torso, had to completely change my setup to finally reach 30k DPS in glass canon mode.

Spoiler: 30269.4 dpi

Green ess, 30min buff +6dmg, wisdom tree: dmg (25points), 50% weapon dmg (10 points), mana (10 points), attack speed (2 points), hp (3 points)

Spoiler: 34192.5 dpi

Green ess, 30min buff + 6dmg, 3min buff + 50dmg, 25 wisdom points into attack speed.

Spoiler: 37059.4 dpi

Same as above + karabosa bonus 25x

Still working on a couple of items, specifically weapon will give high boost. Joker gem would help too, but its so boring so Im not going to open the present

 

Thanks for all the great tips guys.
While this is nothing super impressive it's my current result and I am super happy with it. Still need to work on my critical hit rate and damage of course.
Right now I am using four Darkness pieces, Karabossa cloak and boots, Dunes of Desolation set, two hands staff (only level 51...) and two legendary rings with mostly critical damage.
Time to hoard on glyphs to make my weapon level 55 and slowly start crafting to replace the dunes set.
Any further suggestions are more than welcome.

 

Sebastian_fl. May I ask what kind of weapon you have?

 

Sure. dont have an image right now, but the stats are about 79%, 78.5%, 69% weapon dmg, 113dmg at lvl55. 2 golden lines. I have had 3 more with 3 golden lines, and tried to craft yesterday, but no luck.

If I manage to craft 79%,79%,79%,112, that would be insane

I only need 2 items. weapon and amulet. everything else close to perfect, can only marginally improve it. and also need few more rubies)

Up until November last year, the best weapon was 3x dmg%, and 1x crit. with the new pet 400 crit, my simulator has shown for the first time that the 3x dmg%, 1xdmg is better now, assuming all perfect items in a right combination.

It could be easily 8.2k max dmg, 80%crit, +300% crit dmg(*4), 1.49% attack speed or something like that.

 

And which set do you think should be associated with a 3%+1 dmg 2h weapon? New Karabossa maybe?

 

White karabossa, yes. at least cloak and boots. there are another options with adornment.

The goal is anyway to get 80% crit no matter what. so 4x crit% helmet, crit% gems, crit pet.

I also plan to use 2x royal onyxes in adornment.

 

There haven't been any major changes... Slightly improved a few items (def is a little bit lower because I don't have as many gem slots in my items as before)

Slightly improved damage because of different set up. I have lost a bit of speed, however. (I don't need it anyway)

Build is meant for efficient Frost Sphere spam and can surely be improved... But I haven't played a lot in the past 4-5 months and I don't feel like playing a lot in the future, either. The game isn't the same without my old friends.

But yeah this is how it looks like.




I want my set up to be a bit of a mystery, so I won't show it.

 

lemme guess...
old dragan, old/new grimmag torso, mechanical gloves, white kara boots, sigi adornment, 3xwdmg+1xdmg leg weapon, crit/crit dmg rings and amulet
solstice gems and jewels of rage, 5xrubies 5xonyxes
25pt dmg, 10pt dmg talent, 10pt mana talent
