the end game with all the DD variations out there ignite is still a great option without the need to purchase sought off or transfigure gems to push into the end game looking at you all D deers okay that's probably where I'm going to be at or a DD NE row ignite's still a great option though with the bossing being fairly simple too where you just fish for large ignites and refresh them with an Arness brand setup plus You' still got ignite Pro left and some explosions with obliteration which is always sick as hell your mapping play style is as simple as casting desecrate and then casting detonate dead ignites will prolith and on tanky rares or bosses you'll cast arcanus brand which triggers your utility and in between packs you just pop your divine blessing haste I'm bosses all you've got to do is maintain an archinist brand which applies your curses and refreshes your highest damage ignite thanks to defiled forces then all you've got to do is walk under the boss to Scorch them press your focus button to shock them and fish for that large ignite by spamming desecrate DD and eventually VA DD once you have that big ignite just stay near the boss make sure your Arcanist brand doesn't fall off and maintain to refresh your work night this builds defenses in the end game are 94 evade chance 100 spell suppression 25 spell block shot and freeze immunity 45k armor 20% Chill on
