Default Heh, with the update it's now possible to have 26 Fire Magic.

(12) Fire Magic + (1) Head Piece + (3) Superior Rune + (1) Staff Bonus + (1) Shrine Bonus + (1) Grail of Might + (1) Golden Egg + (1) Candy Corn + (2) Glyph of Elemental Power + (1) Elemental Lord + (2) Double Dragon

12 + 1 + 3 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 2 + 1 + 2 = 26 Fire Magic.

Combine with intensity for even more damage.

As an example, since Meteor Shower always increases by 7 damage per level, it would do 189 Fire Damage at 26 fire magic, plus a 25% bonus from Intensity would be 236 fire damage per hit. If you were optimistic and assumed you could somehow keep Intensity up for the entire duration of Meteor shower, that would total 708 Fire Damage and 3 Knockdowns.

Any other insane things possible with the update?

Either I'm missing something, or you managed to get rid of the 20 spec capacity for attribution.

Interesting indeed, sorry to hear about the caps.

Although even a very high Fire Magic attribute would probably still pale in comparison to armor ignoring magics in Hard Mode. I quit my Ele.

You can still get 20 in pvp, and in pve. Tis still pretty funny. I really think they should change the functionality of double dragon, maybe make the +2 fire apply to the next 2..3 spells, or just not let it be completely cycled.

since when does keeping intensity up for a little over 6 seconds require optimism?

It is a shame that only casters really benifit from these bosts to attributes, for wars the change is generally miniscule.

You can get 21 with the offhand bonus.

Still you can get 20 in the attributes when you normally have 6 Fire Magic.



Death can go up to 22:

(12) Death Magic + (1) Head Piece + (3) Superior Rune + (1) Staff Bonus + (1) Shrine Bonus + (1) Grail of Might + (1) Golden Egg + (1) Candy Corn + (1) Aura of the Lich

Or 20 even at 10 attributes.

Blood and Curses is 23:

(12) Blood Magic/Curses + (1) Head Piece + (3) Superior Rune + (1) Staff Bonus + (1) Shrine Bonus + (1) Grail of Might + (1) Golden Egg + (1) Candy Corn + (2) Awaken the Blood

Or 20 at 9 attribute points.

Air/Water/Earth magic for Elementalists are at 24:

(12) <Element> Magic + (1) Head Piece + (3) Superior Rune + (1) Staff Bonus + (1) Shrine Bonus + (1) Grail of Might + (1) Golden Egg + (1) Candy Corn + (2) Glyph of Elemental Power + (1) Elemental Lord

Or 20 at 8.

I don't know if any other magic attributes can go higher than 21. And all attributes can go to 20 with major con usage.

Afaik, it's possible.

12 Death + 1 headpiece + 3 superior rune + 1 Grail + 1 Golden Egg + 1 Candy Apple + 1 AotL + 1 staff bonus = 21. Even though the staff bonus is 20%, you'll still have 20 as long as you can keep everything up. As for the flesh golem...GOGO Arcane Mimicry for both AotL and Flesh Golem on your bar?
