Enki's Arc Witch Memorial Page & POE 2 Arc Summary
" Cheers! For some reason I had no idea about anointing, so that was an easy improvement. I also modded my cluster jewel into an improved version and got a Watcher's Eye with life/mana recovery rates. Haven't gotten around to DE or Wrath ring yet, the readjustment of resistances is a drag. Decent abyssal jewels are fairly expensive as well. A few follow-up questions that occurred to me: - Would Malachai's artifice + golem skill gem function well as a ring, perhaps instead of Essence Worm? In theory it's a +50% damage modifier (as well as some extra resistances, and an extra skill gem slot elsewhere). Not sure how consistent it is, but I could see it working against bosses. - Is there any reason why the passive tree uses the two big agility/strength nodes instead of investing two points in "Practical Application" which provides 5 more str/ag as well as protection against stuns while casting? Of course only applicable when you need the nodes in the first place to qualify for gems. It seems a straight up upgrade. |

" If you want an extra golem, I can recommend fitting an Anima stone in a jewel slot. We have 1 free socket in our build anyways. For ring slots, I'd recommend just following Enki. There's nothing that gives as much damage as a wrath for us. a 20/21% more damage multiplier is huge, we just can't have it reserve any mana, or it guts the build. Hence the essence wurm. Those nodes are indeed to fix attributes. If you don't need them, you can cut them out. I think most of us have been able to drop the strength node. but personally, I still need the dex node. |

Hi Enki,
It's a great guide! Filled with lots of detailed explanations. I'll play it in upcoming League =) I'm playing on PS4. The only problem actually is (same to all guides I checked recently): I can't have a look on the passive trees after Act 2! The sight on my available devices is focused on the Witch-start. There is no option to follow ur skills, they just run out of the window :S If there is any possibility to link a Screenshot or sth like a picture it would be great. In this way the picture can be selected and zoomed in. Maybe there will be a few questions when league started. On the first sight it's pretty easy to follow your explanation. Thanks to YOU and ur Helpers for investing your time to write down this guide! |

Thanks for your answer.
Please imagine: I don't have a PC, that's why I'm asking =) |

Under the first spoiler you have the level 90 tree without cluster jewels:

![]() Btw, A8 Sirus cleared for the second time in a row (without any GG gear by any means). The first time at the very last portal, this time I had 2 left because the last phase can be quite hectic without some sort of slowdown immunity. Time to sell the Awekener's Orb I guess. PS.: to those who have Culling Strike gloves... I hate you. A8 Sirus Gear and Flasks:

My problem with the Sirus fight and why I don't bother to do it unless I'm being carried is the ridiculous lag I get from all the crap on the screen. I can't even see what I'm shooting at most of the time and the meteor maze blinks in and out of existence for some reason.
I play on a laptop that's a fairly good machine and POE used to run like butter. I have no idea what the've done to make it run so lousy in the last few months. |

Hello, new player here. Been using this build and so far it has carried me trough the game no problem. I do have a question tho - is there an alternative to the Elemental Focus support gem in case I would like to shock for any reason?

" You may be able to run an empower (lvl4) and try to get your arc to lvl 26, or a chain support. But it's probably a lot easier to get 'shock nearby enemies for 2-4 seconds when you focus' as a crafted modifier on a ring. To fully benefit from shock that hits apply, you kinda need to invest a lot in crit to apply more than just the minimum shock value. |

Morning Arc users! I've been running with Bastion of Elements ascendancy which allows me to take zero reflected elemental damage. Regular Atziri is an absolute breeze so I'm wondering what my chances are with Uber Atziri?
