Gear Advice + Attack Speed help

[Mocker22]

Hey guys, I haven't played much PoE in a while but I want to do a run through before Deadfire, and use some of the new deadfire items as well. I'm going to run a versatile, tank/melee oriented wizard, and would like some help narrowing down my gear choices.

 

I'll be using Helmsman's uniform so either 10% or 0%(with durgan) recovery penalty. I want to reach zero recovery with DAoM + Citzal's. With these things already in place, do I need anything else to hit zero recovery, such as how much dex, or how little dex + gauntlets of swift action?

 

Quick help with these calculations would be very greatly appreciated.

 

Thanks, Mock

Use pike and check the box for speed enchantment (Citzal's has speed).

 

You don't need any DEX to reach 0 recovery.

 

As you can see with the calculator, you need Gauntlets of Swift Action to reach 0 recovery with the Spirit Lance (with DaoM). If you do so you can also wear durganized padded armor (or robes of course) because the Gauntlets give you a tiny bit too much attack speed.

Thanks Boeroer, the link helps a lot.

 

It looks like I can do DAoM + Spirit Lance + Gauntlets of Swift Action + Vulnerable attack and be at 0 recovery if I durganize the Helmsman uniform.

 

Just need to decide if dex is worth it to me to improve casting speeds.

Yes, also good - +5 damage per hit with 0 recovery is good as well. Just know that Vulnerable Attack only works with the initial hit, not the AoE "blast".
