Anyone know where I can find the recommended quality gems section? I think I remember seeing it somewhere in the 349 pages but can't pin point it right now...

CA and Empower are the only ones you'd prioritize.

The rest you can recipe to 1/20% and relevel.

Not one that's current, that I'm aware of.

But basically it's just "stack life, get phase acro and Arrow Dancing"

The rest stays pretty much the same, for the tree.

You may also consider doing a full gear swap to a Hidden Potential version, as Uber is not easily farmable in MF gear, so you might as well deeps-mode it. Atziri's Steps are the only mandatory swap, gear-wise. You NEED that spell dodge.

You won't be able to view the tree, since it's out of date, but Clad's 2.0 Poison Arrow guide is useful for how he sets up his gear. Just don't pay attention to gem links, those will be out of date.

What are people doing with 5L on chest? Frenzy-GMP-CoH-Vuln + ? The wider arc from LMP hasn't seemed all that useful, so thinking of trying something with utility like Mana Leech or LGoH, or possibly Blind.

I had Culling Strike on 5th link.

We can't use chain anymore - the Ascendancy bits put us at 110% pierce chance, and a projectile can only pierce OR chain. Once you hit 100% pierce, they never chain.

PSA: When telling other folks that we can't use Chain anymore, I should probably check that I haven't had one equipped in my CWDT / Artic Breath / GMP / ***CHAIN*** helmet combo for... well, pretty much the entire league. Sigh. Hmmm... wonder if I can put some life gain in there, too? That would be pretty hilarious - take 40 points damage, gain 200, rinse and repeat...

Excellent point there. I was thinking about the same thing, although I wasn't sure that Arctic Breath have a "hit". So does it work?
Edit: I think LGoH doesn't work with spells. So our only option for life gain will be Life Leech. Either that or going back to Immortal Call for some momentary defense.

Hi Serleth,

Why is Trickster better for HC compared to Champion (duelist) ?

Thanks :)

Yeah, LGoH only works off of attacks.

As for Culling Strike, unless you get a 6L to also add IIR, it runs counter to one of the goals here, which is MF.

Speaking of Frenzy, what are people running for curse immune maps? Best 2B setup I could find was bit more defensive utility from Cast when Stunned with Artic Breath getting support from GMP already in the link.

Because of the points you sacrifice at the start of the duelist tree. You can't go as deep on the normal tree as you can with shadow.

Also, Fortify's hella overrated. It's good, but it's not THAT good unless you're scaling it with things like armour and endurance charges and a cwdt-immortal call, etc.

Given that you can take Shadow, sacrifice nothing off the tree, and gain a massive multiplicative boost to evasion in addition to flat 5/5 dodge/spell dodge, Trickster's superior in every way.

The thing about Fortify is that unless you have a massive amount of armour and endurance charges, you're still going to get one-shot by the same things that will one-shot an evasion build. Fortify on its own isn't going to save you.

Therefore, it behooves you to simply avoid getting hit in the first place unless you're willing to go full-tilt on defenses, at which point you're sacrificing even more on the tree in lieu of damage and the build slowly wilts.

Trickster's defense is all intuitive. You pass right by Acro for dodge/spell dodge, you're already scaling evasion by being dex-heavy and using grace, etc. so forth.

You are correct, LGoH doesn't work with arctic breath. For the now I've moved down to using only 3 of the links, CWDT - Arctic Breath - GMP, and I'm using the last socket for Clarity.

I already have a LGoH attached to my Frenzy / Curse setup in the chest, not that it seems to make much difference, but it can't hurt AFAIK.

FINALLY the rod trinket is available... normal lab, before the first Izaro phase.
