Is Eye of Malice a good unique helmet for us? I saw an occultist hexblast build using it, claiming that the "Nearby Enemies have 50% increased Fire Resistance" also scales the negative resistance thus providing more damage.

my logic was this:
We are using hexblast + flamm to blow up the ignite, which means the flamm goes away, and hence you lose the actual -res that it gives as the mobs are burning. so you need to somehow reapply it.

If you're super lazy that's fine, but you're missing out on damage from shock and survivability from chill. You're gonna recast flam on bosses anyway, which then builds doom for your next blast. Just seems wasteful to me, but to each their own. Skitterbots will def help your boss damage though.

I noticed your Hexblast character has no gear anymore. Did you give up on the build and move on?

Reached yellow maps, still feeling pretty good with minimal investment. Does this build fall off hard in late red maps/guardians?

This one is fine, better than most other igniters for red maps. DPS still taking down red map bosses easily.

So I've been trying out some things with modest investment (2.5-3 ex or so), I think I have a good curse setup worked out.
1. Flammability with blasphemy
2. elemental weakness from a curse on hit ring
3. Casted despair.

I've gone up to 13's so far (wtb more map drops pls) and clear is a breeze outside some hexproof mobs. Don't even need to cast Despair most packs, just run next to them and slap a hexblast on them, it will pop the Flam off (then back on thru aura), pop your ele weakness on hit, and they burn easily. What made my boss damage MUCH better, though still not great, is Fenumus Weave gloves, the damage really ramps up when you have 3 webs on a boss.

I probably wouldn't league start again with this build, but with some investment I can see the damage actual scale well, and I am finding it pretty fun. I think I will likely work toward a crit build with Perfect Agony at some point, though that will require some serious gear.

It's not fine though. I'd like to see some t16 guardian or sirus kills, because it's totally miserable to kill them.
