Eldirtch Battery: Add Reduced Mana Reservation Node(s) Behind
Eldritch Battery has always been one of my favorite keystones, usually because it lets you save a support gem by making sure you have enough mana to cast spells, so you can gain power that way. However, it was also very nice to be able to run a ton of auras. Unfortunately, now with almost almost every aura reserving 60% now, Eldritch Battery really only lets you run Clarity in addition to the percentage auras. Which isn't really saying much since you need to run Clarity almost certainly if you're bothering with Eldritch Battery.
I agree that the 7 aura-builds with Eldritch battery did get kind of out of hand before, but it might be nice if Eldritch battery users had some access to reduced mana reservation node(s) behind the keystones in order to help them run a single extra aura if they'd like (perhaps needing some other reduced mana nodes as well). Perhaps this is not in the spirit of the keystone, but I think it might be and I think it would add some more interesting build options for Eldritch Battery. @Moylin (Beyond) Last edited by Avelice#3926 on Oct 29, 2013, 12:52:03 AM

The benefit of EB is that it gives you massively increased casting and sustainability as well as increased available mana.
It does not need aura reservation reduction to go with that. EB is not an aura specialist build, it's a high-link high-mana-consumption choice. And it accomplishes that goal flawlessly. An average EB build has several times the mana of a non-EB build, they run auras better than any other build without needing a special reserve reduction.
