Well Taste of Hate adds a ton of damage. It's basically a second Hatred temporarily. There's a flask that gives charges for some builds and hmm the flask that increases IIQ so you get better loots, Atziri is like chaos Taste of Hate, I think that's it mostly?
When you take physical damage as elemental you mitigate 75% of that elemental damage you otherwise would have taken as physical (if your res capped).
I leveled a Wild Strike shadow as my first real toon and I highly do not recommend it. But for the love of god at least look up how to get a good blue +physical weapon via vendor recipes.
This was a good idea, but trying it a while, it seemed to only have partial uptime on trash. After trying a few other (bad) ideas of my own, I ended up just switching out lightning arrow for blast rain, which is best used close up anyway, and going back to blasphemy -> assassins mark. I also added a cast when dam taken -> blade vortex -> increased duration -> power charge on crit setup, and since each proc is ~13 seconds of aoe vortex hitting twice per second, I now have permanent power charges, passively! The 100% uptime on assassins mark + blast rain is probably a dps gain over lightning arrow with only partial proc uptime on curse anyway.
Eh, I did a wild strike scion in tempest and the character was a beast. It wasn't my first char by a long long shot but I don't understand why everyone says melee is so bad/impossible to play unless you're supergosuleetpoeplayer.
Cast on stun is pretty bad though in the sense that you can't use it for a normal spell and cast it manually, it has to be triggered. However if you use an attack or a non triggerable spell(like totems/traps/mines and shit), it's super good for leveling. Flame totem in this necklace makes everything super trivial until like 50.
What ranged totem. And the point is it doesn't trigger. You just drop it whenever you want. Some spells aren't triggerable due to mechanics and such, so linking them to a trigger gem does nothing, they retain their normal usage. If you already have a totem in your build, then you'd want something else, it's just the best 1 gem skill you can put in there for all your leveling needs, probably better than whatever totem you're using.
There's no yellow color, but yeah I see what you mean and since it's corrupted you can't chrom it. You could change it with Vorici crafting but needs to be lvl 8 so probably no one can do it this early in the league. If it's green you could try with an attack, bow or otherwise. Splitshot, Tornado, whatever, with 10added chaos it should be pretty good even without the other stuff.
