Cold penetration is always better due to higher effectiveness of %more modifier of the gem.

So thats why you get Divine Judgement? And its 5% pen better than ~100 int from jewel+30 dex/str node in my case?

Load your char in PoB and play with different nodes in the tree and see the Average hit value for IceStorm, this way you can see if %pen is better than specific value of +intelligence.

Hm 4 sockets easy to get colors by add-remove socket
but how get 2g-4b weapon?use 2greenx25 recipe or just spam?

According to Vorici Chromatic Calculator to get 2G4B on weapon the cost is the following:

Chromatic 161.7 0.61825% 161.7 1 161.25
Vorici 1G 195.1 2.05031% 48.8 4 48.27
Vorici 1B 439.0 0.91125% 109.7 4 109.24
Vorici 2G 609.7 4.10063% 24.4 25 23.88
Vorici 2B 2,057.6 1.21500% 82.3 25 81.80
Vorici 1G1B 411.5 3.64500% 27.4 15 26.93
Vorici 3B 8,888.9 1.35000% 74.1 120 73.57
Vorici 2G1B 1,097.4 9.11250% 11.0 100 10.46
Vorici 1G2B 1,646.1 6.07500% 16.5 100 15.95

Best method seems to be spamming chromatic orbs with an average cost of 161.7
But keep in mind that value is average , if you are unlucky you can use more and if you are lucky you can use less.

This league for me it was a pain to get 2G4B, from what i remember i spent over 300 chromatics on the staff before i got to 2G4B.

But nevertheless if you want to gamble the cheapest method is chromatics spamming and pray ! :)

lilianmarius are you targeting "Legion reward symbols." or just aoe everything?)

Going for symbols , cant clean a lot of legion if map has a lot of defensive mods, Winter Orb is retarded ,it random target nearby enemies as you know also but i try to concentrate on rares and mobs with symbols

Hope that they gona patch it
"The following issues will ideally go into this week's patch but may end up in a later patch instead.
Increasing visibility of the Legion reward symbols.
Improving signalling of Legion encounters and Generals."
cause sometimes i can't see them totally

Anyone on the forums have 6% attributes unlocked on crafting bench please ?

Hmm. I replaced Immortal Call with Vortex-Bonechill, and quickly died twice, once being one shot by the Pool boss even through a full stack of icestorm.

So maybe IC still has its uses. I'll go see how I do in the next few hours of play without it.

I came up with the following Scion level 100 tree after trying various approaches and assuming I will never get an Emperor's Mastery or a Watcher's Eye. https://pastebin.com/eCDjNXYw . Ignore the gear, I just used what I had on. It was suitable for comparing dps/ES choices, though, and these were what I got.

It's possible I should add Exceptional Performance instead and take 3 points from somewhere.

Comments appreciated. I suspect Kelvynn has left us so we can do the builds for ourselves and so he can feel that he finally has taught us The Way.

given that from time to time I get frozen in the delve..I wonder if there is a way of getting 100% frozen immune...

You can sacrifice ES on your boots. This is a thing I am personally a fan of. I'll multimod some boots with either blank prefixes or T1 Flat ES and do Cannot be Chilled+Movespeed and Cannot Be Frozen. Depending how you do it it'll land you about 100-120es. An example from one of my other characters:



Baseline cost of the mods is 3ex and change though, so it's quite an investment and you should have pretty good ES gear/ES values bc you will lose a lot of ES in this slot.

That said, Dream Fragment Boots are pretty sweet :D

This guy does crafting service for free (or tip, it's polite). I've used him a few times for multimodding etc...Including this craft. He keeps his status updated for when he is or is not crafting. Great Service.
