[11.2 ONS] Eldritch Battery Arcitc Armour Tank EK Ranger by chiviet234
hey guys I saw Mitch died to reflect again (2nd time?) as an EK marauder. Just like to stress that I have not found ANY issue with reflect, and double reflect at all. Arctic armour ftw.

Really nice guide.
Thought it worth mentioning that this build also works as a witch. Level 86 passives

An alternative cheap gearing option is to use the Rathpith unique shield (gives 40-60% spell damage, 300ish ES, spell block, 10% increased life), which may allow you to run a pure armour or evasion chest, providing your rings and amulet have sufficient mana/regen. Atziri's Foible is also worth considering. @UnfairMonopoly

Would these be good for this build?
10% increased damage with no fallback. It has no life roll but 100 str=50 base life. Edit: 30% damage with iron will Berek's Grip Ice Spear http://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/780707 Budget Magicfind and/or Hardcore Flame Totem http://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/1211543 Last edited by Necrogue on Aug 10, 2013, 8:24:43 AM

" It actually looks like it would fit in quite well! I guess the only thing is getting the resists somewhere else, but I like the idea! " Yea I think we talked about it once I have a Witch in HC with that exact same build! Very solid build too :) OrenoChinko_EK - 92 Onslaught NessaSwagSixtyNine - 83 HC OreNoChinkoSearingTouch - RIP 81 Oslaught (7/7/2013) Last edited by chiviet234 on Aug 10, 2013, 1:28:31 PM

" Loving the positive feedback from ppl. Makes it worth writing the guide/updating it. Beast tanking on that boss Aphromatic! Really cool to see you dropped determination for tempest shield. Looks awesome. OrenoChinko_EK - 92 Onslaught NessaSwagSixtyNine - 83 HC OreNoChinkoSearingTouch - RIP 81 Oslaught (7/7/2013) Last edited by chiviet234 on Aug 10, 2013, 10:38:59 PM

Complete rip off of my very old build. =P interesting to see a ranger do it though

" I don't see how this is a rip off that build :x I mean your build is for a witch while mine is a ranger, and our builds take nodes in completely different sections of the skill tree map. My build has 203% evasion while your build has 102% armour. Furthermore, with the change to innerforce and arctic armour your build requires so much more mana regen that it becomes impossible to run higher levels of AA. I understand the end goal is to be a tanky Ek character with EB, but I think our builds are completely different interms of itemization and skill tree optimization. As for the dps it should hit 5k+ easily with lvl 20 gems and quality on them. Also a better wand would upgrade dps a ton. Goatse: Once I get a wand with +2 cold gem +1 all gem I will be running lvl23 arcitc armour.

Hit 67 tonight. Im at 1200 dps (5l leech health, leech mana, faster proj., added fire damage). 2800hp, 60% mitigation w/ grace >70% with charges up, 77% resists (except chaos) w/ purity up. My mana pool just got high enough that I can run Hatred Grace Clarity Purity all together, though I don't have alpha howl or the -% reserved nodes yet. This build is fun but I feel useless in groups, I might be leaning too heavily towards survivability in my gear. I am leveling an Iron Will gem to switch with leech health but at the moment it only adds 100dps (gem lvl 13). I can easily farm merc docks with decent clear time and solo low level maps
