Potent Robe Question

[Del72]

Ok, I missed the Potent Robe as a 7/2 Sorlock by completing the Guantlet of Shar before discovering Moonrise Towers. I might backtrack but curious, does the temp hit point bonus refresh every turn or just at the beginning of combat? Also, the Robe of the Weave looks really cool, can I get that early in chapter 3? Thanks!

Every turn.
The 2x Cha is the real benefit though, because it applies to EVERY individual EB beam, so if you use metamagic to double cast it at 6 beams it’s +30 extra damage

Thanks for the response. Metamagic is limited, however, so the bonus is typically 15 damage with 20 Charisma at 11th level, end game. Under similar circumstances, 5 temporary hit points every turn is very nice indeed. The Robe of Arcane Weave, on the other hand, increases hit chance and DC of every spell by 1, has an extra AC bonus of +2 instead of +1, and can heal upon making a saving throw. Tough call for sure. If all you are going to do is spam eldritch blast, then Potent Robe for the win. But overall, for a sorcerer, I might lean Robe of Arcane Weave. What do you think? And how early can you get it in Act 3? Cheers!
