[2.0] mk4y & h0bbyl0s pres. The SRS Mana Scion

Hey all,

since everyone was hating on all that Mana related stuff from the tree and the bandit reward from alira, I couldnt stop thinking about Mana and in what kind of spot it really is.

Then I just started to build completly around Flat Mana and Mana Regen to see what would be the outcome.

Got many nice ideas from h0bbyl0s and we just calculated everything and finally we tested it on a respec Marauder just for science.

The outcome is:

188% increased Max Mana
161% increased Mana Regen
21% reduced Mana Costs of Skills
55 Flat Mana from Tree
60 from Alira

including the Mana that we get from Intelligence we landed unequipped at 1700 Mana Pool

and thats without any Flat Mana that we can get from items!

In our little science project we had a !!!Mana Regen of 160 without a clarity!!!

U DONT NEED CLARITY!

So for beginning and even for endgame this build is nice and smooth and u can easily transition into BM later on and get the Life from Oak instead save the 9 skillpoints we placed for our whole Mana story!


Core Item:


Victario's Influence gives us the ability to run Haste and Hatred at both 40% reservement!

The Flora's Gift Divination Card drops on Tropical Island so we can easily roll our +2 Staff!

Like all the SRS Builds later on u would also need +3 Staff or a Pledge as u prefer.


We focused also on getting many Jewel sockets and a nice amount of resists from the tree

33% to all
18% Lightning
18% Cold

Tankyness is also present with around 108% increased Armour. We know its not much and we dont have many slots for Armor items but still it helps a lot. U even have access to +2 Endurance Charges if u really feel the need for them.

If u get like many items with Flat Mana u can even spec into MoM for just 1 Point and benefit from a decent Damage Buffer and still u wont run out of Mana!

Bandits:

Normal - Help Alira (60 Flat Mana)
Cruel - Kill all
Merci - Kill all


Jewels:

Simple Minion Damage as usual, Cast Speed u know what im talking about ;)

The Tree:
