my SA cost 38 mana and i have 261 mana after i reserve grace. Ive never had a mana problem after i got a surgeon mana flask.

Because you crit so much, you will always have a full flask up. This will also allow you to be more flexible in gear and you dont NEED mana leech.

if you still want, you can use a blood magic gem linked to clarity to further improve your mana regen.


Oh i never posted my Flasks! Will do that! If I am right all of them have this Stat! Pretty Insane on a Crit Build ;)

I didn't read through all 24 pages of comments so i didn't see if you gave an exact crit % chance before switching to CoC, but do you think that you could start CoC at an earlier level in Ambush, where death isn't as big a deal and get the life nodes later? Im level 29 with only a 15% chance to crit which seems to actually crit more than that with my SA.
i switched to CoC+EK as i hit ~33CC ! i was ~lvl90 ;) (with lvl 5% bow)

Awesome thanks for the reply. Could ya help a nub out a bit and tell me what you linked with SA until you went CoC?
To all the ones who posted the build with Hatred and Grace, could you tell me how this is possible without items like Alphas Howl?

I mean they have both 60% and with lvl 20 reduced mana the multiplicator would be 0.77.
If you pick those 15% reduced mana near the start it would be like:
60*0.77=46,2
then the 15%


But if you have 377 Mana (it is a huge amount which will be take for these auras, but you need like 100+ mana to be able to cast the EK ...




Thanks for the answer.

EDIT: Just seen, that Alphas Howl would not only lower the mana used, but also increases the Evasion -> Armor, and the Cold Resistance (not being able to be frozen as well), AND +2 to Auras which would boost survivability and dmg even further :P

You don't need that)
You do not cast EK directly, remember? It's a Cast on Crit, which means you won't pay mana for crit-triggered spells.

And i don't think you speak about Split Arrow itself, its cost will never really raise to 100+
Maybe with BM gem yea but... I don't think so.

Yes, Alpha's Howl would give you an insane boost. But without it, the reduced mana nodes are additive. So 60% x .71 (level 20 gem) x .8 (-20% from 2 nearby passive clusters) = ~34%. You can actually add a third (40% = 23%) aura if you have a really low cost attack like level 10 Barrage. I usually run a Purity too. With level 8 Clarity on Life.

adding on to what i said before about flasks.

4/5 of your flask should be Surgeon flasks (recharges 1 charge on crit) and the last one should be a seething flask that dispels either frozen, bleed, curse, shock.




( i know 2 dispel frozen, ran out of alterations =[ )


Other than my mana flask dispelling frozen, these 5 flask should be what everyone aims for.

1 sanctified life, 1 hallowed life, 1 granite, 1 sanctified mana, 1 quicksilver.
