more +% elemental damage the better ofc, it adds up on top of your total damage, you casee the change in character screen
damage to elites doesn't show up there, cause it is vs elite only

well i meant my dmg is psn, does +arcane boost anyway? I heard it might do1

No, it boosts physical damage by that %
If you have weapon with arcane, it will boost only physical part (base * enhanced damage weapon mod).
It is not much though, imo more important to focus on getting 30% to elites, or useful skill bonus.

2.3 million life per second!


buffing my 11k dps to 29k dps



28967dps/2.39aps*11=133k damage per monster per 0.84seconds

you need to count 2 attacks, cause one is casting zombie dogs, and another is using sacrifice

bears are much better than this unfortunately, couple of reasons:

- much better aoe
- enough damage per single zombie bear vs trash
- enough burst damage + multihit vs elites
- 2x faster cast speed, allows to hit & run faster
- cheap, doesn't require expensive jewelery

Problem with sacrifice is, you deal very high 1100% damage per 2 casting cycles, to relatively small area. It is good vs elites, but vs trash it is wasteful. Taking down wide spread out pack of weak enemies, takes multiple casts, while one zombie bear casts clears it easily. Vs elites bears can all hit same target dealing 3x 238%, which is not far from sacrifice, and considering each cast = new zombie bears, while sacrifice takes two (spawn, and then sacrifice), it even outdamages sacrifice.
Putting theorycrafting on a side, bears just work much better during farming, it clears areas significantly faster.

Zombie dogs are quire fun for co-op games, just another gimmky build that works to some extent.

already take the 2cast needed to sacrefice dogs into my calculation of how to turn 11k dps into 133k per blast per 0.84seconds! look at my aps!

bears sucks!
fun to see that people who use bears not know how bears work! there is no multihit per cast from bears per target!
and how you plan on spamming bears at more then 1.4aps whitout getting out of mana? even if use all the bear sks legendary ingame!

fun for someone who snipet-bot all zombie dog gear for ages, and now talks its crap!
but when sniping he keeps bumping somone else ideo topic for it own kapitalist reasons!

Can anyone confirm Paranoia (Mass Confusion) working on Bosses? Not the confuse aspect, just the 12 seconds of 20% increased damage.
