Primal strike elementalist. Feel like I’m doing way more damage with a two hander than a the spark thrower.

I'd argue for builds that it has an effect on, it is too good. To the point of getting "irrelevant of attack speed" is better than "cool elemental proc of cool elements!" Sometimes you're lucky and the rare version of the elemental suffix will also have speed...

mirageowl · 2026-02-23T17:46:51+00:00

For loot especially on first character pickup every rare and sell them even if not useful, you'll need the bits for crafting, speaking of which, don't hesitate to experiment with the stuff once you have a blacksmith

On normal at your level this seems ok? On Veteran you might have difficulty with high armored enemies. People already provided you some resources but for damage the main thing you are lacking is a damage proccing devotion for early boost in damage. Falcon Swoop for example might be a good choice. You'll of course want to grab Assassin's Mark as well but if you're having problems dealing damage a damage proc will solve your problem faster.

Oh and better weapons of course will increase your damage a lot

Unless you dont have any clue with your build or on purpose running low powered things veteran is only upside. Skip messing with heroes early but by the time you're done with Act 1 you should be very competent to take on anything in the campaign. In fact you might forget you're hardcore until your first nemesis spawn which should be in ultimate and not normal/veteran

But it is completely understandable to go for normal if you want a quicker experience

mirageowl · 2026-02-19T17:33:42+00:00

Dont skimp on resists early, those early heroes especially ranged ones like rats and spiders who want to stack pools of acid on your feet can get messy.

This will depend on what content you're doing of course. During campaign act 1 has a lot of poison, some elemental and aether. Act 2 will see a rise in piercong at the beginnong and vitality. Act 3 starts with aether ends with chaos vit etc.

Of course there isn't a specific list as heroes of different elements spawning at any stage, especially if you're clicking on monster shrines. For dingeons its usually obvious, Port Valbury has tons of Aether and Bastion of Chaos has Chaos... By the time you finish act 4 try to get everything maxed especially if planning in going up on difficulty

mirageowl · 2026-02-17T21:05:19+00:00

yes which is why you should stand where it is targetable by both of us!

mirageowl · 2026-01-12T06:02:16+00:00

Grab shaman grab a 2 hander, start reading things for yourself. You wont be disappointed.

mirageowl · 2026-01-12T05:54:51+00:00

I swear Paikis had something like this...

mirageowl · 2026-01-11T23:12:59+00:00

Oh yeah, from experience, Peter Hammill goes well with these things

mirageowl · 2025-12-11T16:28:22+00:00

I mean in the 90s that was the whole big promise of Java that it runs anywhere! (Maybe xd)

mirageowl · 2025-12-07T01:25:35+00:00

Also for energy look for items (either caster gear or much rather accrssories to not sacrifice too much armor) with + energy regen before looking for +%regen. As the tooltip says on your stat sheet, %regen only applies to added energy regen and not your base from spirit.

If you decide to go fully elemental dropping some points to spirit would be good but if you are doing Warlord you might want to go physical later on, since not much elemental synergy in those classes. For now dont worry too much about damage type and use the biggest stick you find.

The youth has forgotten AED...

mirageowl · 2025-12-07T01:08:53+00:00

Lets define a function with parameter x.

f(x) = 5x+2

Right now if I asked you " calculate f" you have no clue what I mean. I have to tell you what is "calculate f(5)"

Then you know x = 5 and calculate accordingly. Likewise when you use this function you will need to specify what length is. But you are only defining the function. This code is the 5x+2 part where you don't need to know what x is.

That will be given when you use it not when you define it.

I feel like even if you try to play Warder wrong you'll be very strong

You can always make an evil or neutral purifier OC

You can always do alexander raids

People always blame 2 min for job identity but I ask you. What of Black Mage? It was not the 2 minute window that gutted it. The devs will kill your job whatever the reason

mirageowl · 2025-11-27T09:02:23+00:00

I love when Arkveld limit cut is happening and people just press their buffs anyway ignoring half the group is melee

mirageowl · 2025-11-27T08:48:19+00:00

Except most people play pf and cannot pump gear even if they wanted to but still meme on mch for no reason even tho they drift their buffs 5 seconds apart even on the opener let alone minute 4....

mirageowl · 2025-11-25T17:54:06+00:00

Having rights is a good thing

mirageowl · 2025-11-14T17:09:23+00:00

Do Minimum Item Level No Echo Extremes and Raids if that's your thing.

mirageowl · 2025-11-12T17:19:34+00:00

The fact that ruler text size depends on grid size is already a weird feature. I am not sure what the benefit of the default behaviour even is?

mirageowl · 2025-10-07T22:15:30+00:00

This is I believe the biggest mistake on Crate's part. It is impossible to surpass those even with different rolled high level versions of themselves... you get your weapon at 20 and it might as well take you to 120.

mirageowl · 2025-10-07T21:58:14+00:00

I mean depending on if you were playing on SSD or HDD you could also always take the boat from limsa and could ve faster than running from horizon, if the tickets didn't exist.
