Arctic Armour

I personally think they need to dramatically lower the drain. my witch is only level 38, but she is stacked up on mana regen as much as i could find with clarity lvl 9. I used the new ability and it's safe to use until it gets to lvl 5 when it is draining more then i get back. i regen 64.7 mana/second, this is probably low for you higher lvl chars. but this gem is draining way more then it really is worth considering chaos damage bypasses it also.
I think the skill is fine as it is. If you use it with inner force, at level 20 the skill gem will mitigate 800-900 damage from every attack. That is an insane buff, and being able to have that without building for it would make the skill a necessity in every build.

Well, level 8 is -32 flat.

So good news! It rises exponentially.


this would be exponentially

If it really scale like this, one can build without armor.
The new build is to get this gem to level 20, then max out on mana and mana regen gear.
-600 physical damage is retarded. with 10k armor against brutus 4000 hook, one mitigates barely 20% or so of that. If someone just ignores armor alltogether, they basically are immune to all damage from crap outside sources, furthermore, they are also given about the same survivability against brutus as a person with 10k armor.


No, it doesn't really scale like this. That was just someone's attempt to explain 'exponentially' to someone else.

Yeah, according to the level 13 gem posted earlier, the above list is higher than expected.

I suspect it follows this list roughly, but the actual values are lower than what is listed the higher the gem level is. 350-400 seems like a reasonable place for it to be at level 20.

i hardly understand why this is the skill they chose to implement now??? melee is horrible in this game atm and lets face it you cant effectively use this skill as a melee char because melee doesnt have crap for mana regen! u can use blood magic on ur actual attack skills and use all ur mana for clarity but then you give up 2 40% buffs for this one??? not worth it...determination +grace is waaaayyyyyyy better than like -60 dmg at lvl 50.

Let them implement what they think is better, melee get 2 support gems next week.

You should try out linking blood magic gem to arctic armor and see if it drains your health. If not, then it's a win-win.

Actually, I've been using it, man. You just need a little bit of mana regen percent, Clarity, and some mana leech to back you up.

And if you have an issue with reserving mana for Clarity as one of your auras, just pretend Clarity's effects are what Arctic's is. Because, essentially, that's what you're doing. In which case, it's worth it.
Oh god...


Oh god...






OHHHHHHHH god...






If you're auto-attacking a desynced mob, the server is actually running you off in a chase you don't know you're pursuing. Next thing you know, Arctic Armour has you drained of mana.






Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhh boy.........
