Man, you got what I wanted. I will go for Nova charge and Living flame. I can probably get Hive via items and if not, I can live without it. I will check what is the best course of action for -x resistance and see where I go in term of Skill plan.
Thanks a lot for your help.

SoR proc deals 3/2 weapon damage , so with a weird craft that has high +max damage it outshines Balefire at every chapter . More damage , enemy debuffing , 3/2 WD for more leech .

balefire was actualy quite great for early game when debuffing was not required for crowd controll/stay alive longer, but he needs now to advance to the next chapter and do the needed upgrades - he said it himself , he got a bit stuck and he finds it hard to farm in places more dangerous than k3kba . those abbandoned crafted armors are also very needed , in order to reach a higher block chance (+more physical damage/attack rating) . the abbandoned crafts and all those specified procs are there for a good reason



@dominikake are you using a mercenary also ?


Yes i have a merc. I have the shapeshifter.

Belt: Wormtongue
Gloves: Rare craft with 7% ctc Stormblast on attack
Boots : Serpent's tail chain boots
Helm : Haareis
Armor: Jitan's Kamon
Shield: Banner of Duncraig
Weapon: rare craft with 16% ctc SoR after kill
Rings: 2x rares with ctc Unseelie Curse
Amulet: rare with ctc Hymn (never ever got it to have Lightning Arena *despair)
Sockets: none
go at the top of the compilation and open the spoiler about gameplay tips . You need to upgrade your gear according to that, so at this moment you are on the right track . What you need to do now is FARM for better gear . If k3kba is the spot you can do it , it's fine , as long as you get good results . you can find there some shrines and runes up to ON so it is fine . upgrade your gear to abbandoned crafts/set items/level 100 RW's as the miniguide recommends , upgrade your weapon to a Weird Craft with SoR proc as the miniguide recommends .
dominikake wrote:just settled with cataclysm on weapon.
don't settle . that 16% SoR proc is a "must have" , don't replace it with crap . your build focuses on weapon damage , not elemental procs


you got all your info about gear upgrading there . For the amulet , use re-rolls to get Lightning Arena , be it from oils re-rolls or dragon re-rolls . I also hope you get a Khany RW on switch attack as soon as you can to acces T-slam . Use the T-slam + Lightning Arena stuns for crowd controll , they will make your life easyer .

i also noticed you said "sockets : none" . for the moment you may put some perfect amethysts in your sockets to get more dexterity


Just gotten a Amulet: rare with Lightning Arena oskill (no hymn)
Weapon: craft with 16% ctc SoR after kill
Back to farming. Thanks for the help. Will just come back if i hit a road block again.

you already tank enough by youreself + you got some extra tanks along (summons) . you don't need an extra tank . i would replace the shapeshifter with an act 3 Bloodmage . It does great elemental damage + it casts Gift of inner fire to heal all the party (him + you + the summons) , and that will help you more than an extra tank + some minor damage boost from bloodlust (shapeshifter).

I'm doing the traprat build and I'm trying to prepare a sacred blade for the adramelech RW, and I'm trying to get the luck trail (double MO) thing to work to get the highest ED possible before making it. I want to know if downgrading it to low quality with the catalyst of destruction + rune recipe, then upgrading to superior w/ two oils of enhancement would work or if the game permanently locks it from working after that first try somehow.

every time you use the catalyst+ rune for affix burn , the weapon is re-rolled as a new weapon , so you may re-roll it untill you succeed , even if it's going to take a while to do it . Last time i did that , it was for a bow , and took me almost 2 hours of re-rolls :)) . It's also about luck , so ... Good Luck ! ;)

You can just reroll with oil of renewal after cubing with 2 oils of enhancement, no need to affix burn it then 2 oils of enhancement every time you fail the luck trial, or make a superior with not max sockets (either max or none at all is good)

Thanks to the replies and a PM I got, I rolled what I wanted in 10 minutes of trying it with the oils of renewal. TYVM, now trying to farm Mid/Endgame gear and charms, trying Quov Tsin ATM and I still need more res for that :P
