Leeching Spectral throw Scion

An update for this build. I'm currently in act 2 cruels (still in Nemesis of course ;)) and it is working great.

The current state of the build: link

I use ST+LMP+Added fire+life leech

I'm ustilising warlords mark most of the time, but i switch to Enfeeble for stronger bosses (dominus wasn't taht hard with enfeeble up TBH); i terms of auras i run hatred and clarity, though if needed for act bosses i switch hatred for purity.

Thanks to this my leech is already great - i leech mana from wurms and warlords and life from wurms, warlords, the passive and the life leech gem.
I recently found the first corrupted blood nemesis (or however the mod is called which gives you a bleeding DOT) and i didn't notice it at all, i leeched that much life taht i was a full health the whole time and i noticed the mod only when i got the message from the achievement :)

EDIT: my next steps in the build will be getting Golems blood and than mind over matter (and the 40% mana regen node of scion start). My current mana regen is 25 mana/s and even only with the wurms leech i have full mana all the time, so i hope i'll be able to keep it up.

What gear you using ? you don't notice that ^^

And for solo boss what skill using with ST ? double strike heavy strike?

My current gear:

(btw i wouldn't need that many mana flasks, i'll switch one of them soon)

The life leech against the rare enemy was:
5.2% (gem) + 2% (wurms) + 2% (passive) + 5% (curse) = 14.2% life leech ;)

Even for bosses i use SPectral throw - it allows me to stay at range and throwing the weapon one will usually hit him at least 2 times (so your actually doing 2 or more times 60% damage in one throw). Thanks to LMP one of the projectiles will hit him when they return even if i moved a bit left and right (so i never have to stay in one place).

OK, an update about my current situation :)

I'm approaching Cruel Vaal, so i'm not yet that far in (becasue i play another char with a friend a lot and i don't ahve as much time for the scion as i would like to have...)

My current tree: link

I bough some uniques (Wurms and Windscream) and i was ultra lucky to find an Inner treasure nemesis, who dropped a perfect Slitherpinch (both perfect mods and 4 linked); which i didn't plan to have, but it fits perfectly in the build. I could swtich either of the uniques out if i need a rare badly - without windscream i would cast only enfeeble (but slither makes up for the lost leech from WM) and since i planned only for Wurms i can have either wurm or slither (and keep windcream for WM) to keep my leech up (i will try to keep all 3 on my char though and see if i can make up the potential loss of life and resists in other slots later).
Currently i have no problem running all 3 of them at once.




Currently i have around 1500 life (given taht i have a life roll only on one ring that is quite encouraging IMHO, because i can still get more life on my helmet, chest, other ring and amulet)

OK, Cruel Piety is down, my next play session with this char will be Cruel Dominus...

The build so far: link

I'm going towards the mana leech node, after that i'll finally take MoM.

My gear:

I'll upgrade the helmet ASAP.
I found the axe on a mini dock run after Piety (i was on 90% towards lvl 55 so i wanted to get that lvl done). Before i used this sword:

OK guys, dinally i managed to get the mana leech nad pick up Mind over matter.

I haven't played long with it yet, but it seems that one hybrid is enough to keep the mana up so i can still spam my spectral throw (when there are some weapons in the air the leech easily sustains the mana) even if i take damage.

So my tree on lvl 61 is: link

I have only 2300 life (and 240 mana free after the reservation of auras), but thanks to my decoy totem i had no problems at all. Currently i'm halfway through act 2 cruel.

my gear for now:


EDIT: i also edited the planned tree in the opening post again
