Skeleton Mages (granted by Dead Reckoning gem, you summon up to 5 mages instead of your skeleton warriors per gem) are fun as heck. They're like flame totems except you can get up to 8-10 of them, and they're affected by auras, and can gain frenzy/power charges, and are affected by offering. Right now I have Skeletons linked to Pierce, GMP, Spell Echo - so my summoning of the mage echoes, and the mages echo while attacking. With the Skeleton in a +1 helm, they 2-3 shot white mobs and cast really fast. You also use the shield that grants power/frenzy to the things around you on kill, with the Aegis keystone so that your minions are the ones granting charges to their buddies. Pop Flesh Offering and they all turn into buzz saws. The jewels each ran me 10-15C a few days ago, but I'm happy with my investment

Duck and Cover posted:I'd argue newer players have an advantage in that they actually take their time and pickup and upgrade their gear. I on the other hand force my way through under equipped because I'm a lazy player who doesn't feel like picking up gear just for it to be obsolete in ten levels. I realize it's faster to pay attention to drops, but but but gotta keep going. Go go go go go gogogogogogogo. I wonder why I keep dying. I guess I should swap off this Ondars Clasp now. -Me in Act 7

So I just found a Kaom's, but I used it all last season and am having too much fun with gem links this season to want to put it on. Should I use it on an alt or sell it to fund even more alts?

Is there some super secret OP build including Gifts from Above or why has the price for this ring exploded? I found a really nice one and apparently they're above 200c as compared to maybe 5c last league.

An alchemy orb got me a ring with 12% chaos resist and all elemental resists in the 22%-35% range which seems pretty good, how far can I use this thing before I have to start using specialized rings that I buy from other people or whatever?

Dumb question about the linked sockets: I'm hoping to put together a combination of Chance to Bleed, Blade Flurry, Curse on Hit Support and Vulnerability. (Trying out a Crimson Dance based Bleeding build, hope to swap Chance to Bleed with Maim/Ruthless or something later on.) Do the sockets have to be linked (Red - Green - Blue - Blue) or would (Green - Blue - Red - Blue) still work? I haven't seen anything stating supports had to be directly adjacent to the items they are linked to, but I wanted to make sure.

As long as they're linked that's what counts. Also when you link a support to a usable skill a tiny marker will show up on the skill's icon in the toolbar. That's how you can check to make sure its working.

It's not a good idea to link your curses to your main skill. Because you could be dealing damage instead with those two links. You can do thinks like curse with orb of storms, or counterattack gems, or with a blasphemy aura instead.

Should I bother maxing my resists if I frequently have Endurance Charges up? I suppose I should, because I only get them when I kill things so bosses might be a problem but this is my first time playing any strength-based character / use Endurance Charges.

NofrikinfuN posted:Alright, thanks. I hoped it would work that way. The only time the actual order of sockets matters is if you're using triggered skills (Cast when Damage Taken, for example). But what Phobo said is true. AggressivelyStupid posted:You can make totems throw traps right?? Nope, you'll throw a trap which spawns a totem when triggered. And before you ask: drop a mine which lays a trap which spawns a totem. Sab669 posted:Should I bother maxing my resists if I frequently have Endurance Charges up? I suppose I should, because I only get them when I kill things so bosses might be a problem but this is my first time playing any strength-based character / use Endurance Charges. It's always a good idea to be resist capped but you can maybe get away with it depending on how you get said charges. Warlord's Mark? You'll run into problems with Hexproof maps. Spamming Enduring Cry is safer, but that's time spent not-killing things.

I saw the Blasphemy gem, but don't know enough about auras and curses yet. To put it in Diablo 2 terms, would a Blasphemy linked curse just act like Conviction? Does it reserve mana to stay active? But yeah, I see your point. I could throw Maim and Ruthless on there instead if the curse were applied some other way.

Does it reserve mana to stay active? a blasphemy-linked curse becomes an aura that applies the curse to everything in it and reserves 35% of your mana

Big downside of blasphemy is making the blood magic node a much harder choice since you reserve life and not mana. Imho.

This game intimidated me a bit, but all I really needed to get into it was my husband going 'its hard to respec fully and you can gently caress yourself over easily, finding a guide helps' and I got into it pretty quickly after that. I'm to the point now where I know I don't know lots of things, but its fun to learn them, and I have a build that can do yellow maps just fine and probably higher (once they actually drop). I'm still getting scammed at trading but I'm sure I'll figure out which things I'm underselling sooner or later.
