i also still dont know if there is anything worth while replacing my purities with since my res are already capped without them (88 res + on all 3)

You're missing the ES witch and Sion nodes ... Not really 10%

Hello!
I'm Level 64 on Breach HC with my Trickster and I think I do something wrong. I never played a CoC Discharge build, but I'm wondering why I have no 'Cast on Critical Strike' gem linked to one of my skills as Trickster. At the moment I use Dischage manually on max charges. Do Dischage Trickster don't use a CoC gem?

Malice casts discharge automatically, but until you equip it you need to link

Discharge

Cast on Crit

and a Proc gem (Cyclone,shield charge)

all together.

So the build is absolutley fun and fast especially in maps. However i'm struggling against some bosses if i won't kill 'em fast enough while vinktar flask is on.
I must be missing something just don't know what. Feels like the leech could be the problem since i only see some real leech while vinktar is on.

Tried Xoph and as soon as vinktar went off i couldn't facetank him for 2 seconds. He just burned me. Ofc i'm using the defensive setup and took a rubys.

What about using poachers mark + herald of ice + curse on hit for life leech? Maybe its better than warlords?

I just did a whole lot of planning and realised this is a shortfall of this setup - Vinktar is the only leech source, and the boot leech only works with adds.

I ran instead with Blasphemy - Warlord's / Assassin's Mark, had to go Whispers of Doom which cost 7 passive points. The results are great, reliable leech. The downside is you lose purities - but I've yet to oneshot myself in about 60 maps and I've forgotten that ele reflect is a thing (if purities were supposed to adress that.)


I've decided that the best option is also the most expensive one: a Voll's Devotion with +1 corruption will free up that 7 points. This costs about 20ex and up, however, which makes it the ultimate luxury item for the build.

Also, what happens to the boot enchant slot? Warlord's Mark not only adds reliable mana leech - it frees up the boots for a 2% life and mana regen upon taking damage. This means returns of about 14 to 20 mana per second with a mana pool of 700, scaling even further with mana regen nodes. Combined, these two sort of make up for lack of Elreon rings which are much rarer and niche than outright stat sticks.

I'd need to look at how many cyclones can be cast in a sec to know whether this can take over rings completely, but consider all the other side effects from dual-cursing:

1) Assassin's Mark is a huge damage boost and placeholder for crit chance until you get better gear. It ALSO grants power charges on kill.

2) Warlord's Mark makes sure you permanently have endurance charges while mapping, making you impossible to kill.

You can swap out Assassin's Mark for Enfeeble (your 9k ES is now worth 12k+) or Temp Chains (dodge every windup easily while cycloning).

At the pinnacle of this build would be TRI-CURSE from Voll's and Whispers of Doom. Third curse source? An On Hit corruption on your gloves of course. If you were worried about cost or losing stats, Maligaro's are dirt cheap and the ES you lose is more than made up for by an Enfeeble in your setup.

Downside of all this that I can see, but perhaps the only one, is that you have to reroll hexproof maps, but tank and dish out a lot more consistently and safely.
