Meaning the Aether portion of the skill is somewhat lost since your Aether damage bonus is so low.ītw, this also applies to skills that deal Elemental damage (Panetti's for example). But you have +1331% Fire damage and +468% Aether damage. Right now your Devastation deals about 60/40% Fire/Aether damage since you don't have any item that would convert either of these damage types. Most of these are monster infrequent items, which means they are target-farmable since they drop from specific mobs with a high enough dropchance. Some convert the damage type of it completely. Some allow you to cast a second Deva while the first is active. You will probably run into problems as soon as you enter Ultimate.ĭeva actually does scale well but requires a couple of items to make it work. Then I found the blueprint for the last component for Conflagration, which was so strong, so now I'm using that instead but it looks like it scales really well with burn damage!Ĭonflagration is fine for leveling but it has a bad damage per energy ratio so it falls off in later levels and is kinda bad at level 100.Īt level 71 everything 'scales really well' enough, in other words the difficulty simply is too low yet to be bothered with an actual functional build. It's main purpose is the reduced resistances.

Think of Obliteration rather as a support skill. always shows the number of skill points as if you were level 100 and had completed all quests that give skill points.īut then I found the Tome of the Arcane Wastes with Obliteration on it.

I'm regretting going for Blind Sage/Elemental Seeker, since it seems kind of dumb and short range, but it's too late now. Found some recommended Devotions and beelined towards them. are those skills actually worth it? The auras also don't seem like a great investment past level 1, given how few % it gives relative to what you get from items.įor Devotions, I have no idea what I'm doing. What skills should I be getting? It seems almost a waste to put points into things that add Chaos or Physical damage to my abilities, since I'm focusing on Fire+Aether. How long will Conflagration last me? I've read that it doesn't scale well, but it looks like it scales really well with burn damage!Īlso Devastation doesn't seem to be scaling well and misses a lot on bosses, should I just abandon it? I really value its strong burn damage, it lets me still do damage to bosses while I'm running in circles like a headless chicken trying to dodge stuff, ditto with Mortar Trap. Then I found the blueprint for the last component for Conflagration, which was so strong, so now I'm using that instead. That was about the same as Panetti's, so I refunded the Panetti's points and put them elsewhere. I originally went into Panetti's as my primary ability, but then I found the Tome of the Arcane Wastes with Obliteration on it. Haven't looked at crafting or reputations that much yet. I finished the base campaign on Elite with little difficulty, about to do the expansion content now. Don't know why it shows so many skill points, I only have 3 left to spend.
