Hey folks,

Quick question about the rune word "Obsession." If I were to build one of these, would it be possible to find a plain staff with 3 skill mods? For instance, a staff with + Lightning, +Lightning mastery, + Lightning skills? If so, could each of these have a +3 skill mod?


Obsession stats:

Indestructible
24% Chance to cast level 10 Weaken when struck
+4 To All Skills
+65% Faster Cast Rate
+60% Faster Hit Recovery
Knockback
+10 To Vitality
+10 To Energy
Increase Maximum Life 15-25% (varies)
Regenerate Mana 15-30% (varies)
All Resistances +60-70 (varies)
75% Extra Gold from Monsters
30% Better Chance of Getting Magic Items
socketed (6)

yes, but it would still be completely useless.

crescent moon gives you very much more damage

can't spawn lightning skills since that requires it to be magic. Can spawn "Staffmods" to a particular skill such as lightning, lightning mastery etc

Thanks.

So, it would be theoretically possible to land +3 fire ball, +3 fire mastery, and +3 to some other skill?

Lightning wants crescent moon or infinity

Blizz wants fathom

Fire prob wants Phoenix

Shitty and useless runeword

I went through the exact same line of thought, but this is a question of theory crafting more than anything. It would be very difficult to find an ideal staff given that no one is collecting them (much less if they can come across one). Still, would be good to know the maximum utility of it in case one would make one before season's end.

I used a frozen orb one for a lark. Fathom etc. would be much better.

Shame they made this cool new RW then released sunder charms to ruin any hope it had of competing for a place in the meta.

lol. Cold sunder is so GG any way you look at it. Even with subpar gear, it's top of the line stuff.
