Glancing Blows - Since we want to avoid one-shots as often as possible, we take this keystone, which doubles our chance to block both spells and attacks, while also making our blocks lower the damage taken by 35% instead of the full 100%.After calculating all of those modifiers, we end up with about 36% ES recharge per second, which starts after about 1.7 seconds of not taking damage. It comes with a penalty of 40% less energy shield recharge, which we offset by picking up passives on the tree that increase the recharge rate. This is why we’re going to take the Wicked Ward keystone, which makes recharge uninterruptible if it began in the last 4 seconds. After not taking damage for 2 seconds, you will start rapidly regaining ES until you take damage again - which is its biggest problem, since we really want to benefit from it. Recharge - This is Energy Shield’s ‘default’ way of recovery.Each of the Withered stacks has a duration of 2 seconds, which doesn’t refresh when applying a new one. Wither - This debuff applies 6% increased chaos damage taken to units per stack, up to 15 (90% increased chaos damage taken).Needs investment to do super endgame content Remember that gem levels are the best way to scale the damage of DoT skills.ĭamage over Time skills, unless stated otherwise, cannot: Since most damage over time effects do not stack, having only these two might not be enough for really strong enemies, which is why we use Blight (a stackable, channeled skill). When an enemy dies while affected by Contagion, it spreads to all nearby enemies carrying the Essence Drain debuff alongside it. This is a supplementary skill for ED, which inflicts yet another DoT on our enemies, this time in an area.
This might seem bad for a clear skill, since it only hits one projectile that doesn’t even chain or pierce - but that’s where Contagion comes into play. While at least one enemy is under its effect, we regenerate (not leech! remember) 0,5% of its damage every second. Many players, such as Zizaran have started with it in multiple leagues or gauntlets (special, way more difficult events) and succeeded with it due to the sheer amount of utility provided.Įssence Drain is a simple skill that shoots out a projectile, which inflicts a chaos damage over time debuff on hit. It has long been championed as the go-to early leveling, no gear required build for any player. Welcome to the Budget, League Start friendly Essence Drain Contagion guide!Įssence Drain is probably the most well-known damage over time skill in all of PoE.
