Blood magic or eldrich battery ?

Ok I'm going a lighting strike mace/shield templar currently level 26-7 and I am at the point when I need to decide to go for a ton of life some marauder points , and blood magic or go for static blows and eldrich battery to solve the mana problem. On a side note if i go blood magic is conductivity a good curse to run ?
P.S. I got resolute technique

That's a tough decision, indeed.

I'm a fan of Blood Magic just because I like the added benefit of being able to keep up additional auras, albeit at a much higher risk.

But if this is a HC character, I would look more into EB.
