I used something similar, but instead of Incinerate, I used cloak of fire. Incinerate is heavy on energy and can be evaded. Cloak does decent damage over time and is very helpful at boss fights if used on the tank. Also a great farming skill. Makes farming pirate rooms very easy.

It's great but there are two things you could do to improve your build further:

1:

U have: Focus 305 (705) Vitality 520 (545)

change it to: Focus 550 (1400) Vitality 275 (300)

you wont die. stuff will die twice as fast. you will hit a lot harder.

2: Grand ring of fire. press drop. put on a skill ring.

chop

@Bobert and @ChopstickNinja

Yeah great advice, Im going to drop incin and test it out, and I like having the vitality, I do okay with my energy, every level I put more into it to stay safe. And that Grand Ring of Fire is a mistake, meant Grand Ring of Fire Bolt haha.
If anyone wants me to update it I can, I have 2 Dragon Lord pieces now so if anyone wants stats with that let me know, thanks :)

Deathshadows - dump the vit, put into focus.

Focus is what gives your attacks power

trust me if you dont like ill refund the alt books.

Even if he dump everything into foc, it won't be that effective considering the deadly cost of low health and more deaths, not to mention the curve decreasing the effect.

I used a reb would like a refund xD!

See, I solo level so health is a needed thing, having 3.3k really helps, 5k energy is perfect. I dont see it giving me more damage to my skills lol.

I have 505 (785) focus, and 420 vitality. 3830 health and 100 hp regen, 4955 energy and 65 energy regen.. Only dl gloves and boots.

The problem with dumping health is aoe damage from DL bosses.

Focus does boost eshield, I am not sure by how much.

I find that 1 focus is = 1-1.3 fire bolt and firestorm damage, including fire attune.

1 vitality is = 6 health.

Eshield gives more protection than the stated amount. I believe the stated amount is what you get for pvp (cast before entering pvp mode for full effect).

Firestorm at 49 does a little over 1,100 more damage than Firestorm at 40, but costs over 200 more energy to cast per. I find firestorm at 49 to be very demanding on energy.


Cloak of Fire in DL Boss Fights:
I am currently running 40 in Cloak of fire, it is doing around 110-190 damage on DL bosses with a 26 lure of fire (-532 resist). The dragon lord bosses hit every 1.5-2 seconds. Cloak is doing a minimum of 3,300 damage per minute. Over the course of the battle, this spell will do substantial damage when used on the tank. This is at a very low cost of energy.

I am level 182 and i just ran a combo at wyrms. I was able to get 8%, 8 mini bars. I have to use restos though. When running with maxed eshield and no points in cloak, i got 6% on a SK lix combined with energy and hp lixirs.

Ditching eshield is very challenging on my solo abilities. I am doing it to improve my clan's ability to take down DL bosses.

I find a happy medium with splitting points between firestorm, eshield, and cloak for levels 120-180. You will make up the loss of damage from a maxed fire storm with cloak, and will have some protection with eshield. Another bonus is less energy consumption, which will benefit non plat users.

Just my findings, I hope it helps.
