Sorry for the newB question, but why use "Master of Fear" (unnerve)? 10% inc spell damage doesn't seem too much. Or does it have the same effect as a 10% more modifier?

Everything that has MORE in it is far more superiour to "increased". Thats why Vaal RF, pain attument and unnerve are very strong effects. If you can stack them up you can double or even in some cases triple your total damage output

Increased is only stacking on your base value ( if your spell deals 100 dmg 100% increase is 200 damage , 200% increase is 300 damage etc ) while if you have 100% more damage it would be 200 damage and then 400 damage with 200% more spell damage. And the best thing is that MORE is applied last.

So if you have 300 damage from 200% increased damage and get 200% MORE damage that would be 1200 damage total ( calculations are a bit off , but i hope you get the point would be even more than 1200 ). Unnerve would give us in that case a damage boost from 300 to 330 thats why it is so strong

do we use vaal arc in 3.14 since it got bufed ?

No, because Vaal Arc dont uses Mana, its using souls. And so you dont get any Damage from Arcmage support and with EO we dont shock. So, no.

I'm mainly wondering is there a downside to having a Vaal arc over a normal one?
There's still the lucky buff it provides.
This is the first time Enki mentioned explicitly not using it.

@MC_Grinda A shorter answer: Yes it's effectively a more multiplier, because it affects the enemy and therefore doesn't get calculated on our damage, but rather on what they take.

Only at level 71 and just started mapping but so far the build feels good. Didn't buy any gear and went through acts without the full compliment of gems and it still worked. The added defensive layers feel good.

I might give a try to a Rumi's instead of a Jade and no Glancing Blows later to see how that feels.

This is another solid beginner build and should take anyone into maps if they take the time to follow it.

Hey, I have a question. I have a problem with lack of dps while levelling. I use 4l arc with unleash, controlled destro and archmage but I lack dps to do league content.

Are they simply out of tune or am I doing something wrong? I invest all my points in life, mana and just a tiny bit of spell crit, as per pob

I struggle immensely and I don't understand what am I doing wrong.

League content is hard, there is so many mobs that overwhelm you in a small area and you can almost never stand still to cast

I struggle a lot with it in low tier maps as well

A trivial question:

Just thought I'd give this league a go after a long layoff.

Is this still a "witch" build, ie choosing starting character Witch.

I was reading the levelling & was seeing ascendancies I'm not used to - I thought this was based on a Nec accendancy?

Its Elemantlist now, but starting class is still witch

Why is this using Mind Drinker annointment? Doesn't that only provide mana leech on attack damage, making it useless for this build?

Hello, I'm following your guide and i'm block about the strenght based item like the "increased duration" gem and "stone golem" they both need approximately 55 strenght and i don't know where you get it from. i finished the act 3 already and can't add the "increased duration" gem and i'm not even near to be able to. i only have 29 strenght.
i'm in the new league ultimatum maybe there were some kind of change ? but i don't really know i'm kinda new.
