dude, this build is nuts. I just got two elemental wepaons and I'm literally just 2 shotting everything.

the only slight problem (well, not even a problem) is that I have to chug my mana pots like crazy. does that eventually get better? I have mana leech on cleave to help alleviate the pressure

edit: just got this

I just made my 4L RRGG, so I can now use mana leech... Never have to use a mana pot. Unless I miss 10 swings to desync. But before that gem I had HUGE manaprobs.

Act2 merc atm, lvl53.

im running with 67 mana and mana leech gem, and never use a mana flask (have none in my belt)

conductivity costs 67 mana and i'm still able to cleave non stop even after using conductivity

lvl 72

same here, i got 110 mana left so i can spam some endu charges and curse, i linked red mana cost to conductivity makes it cheaper, im trying to get more mana so i can run hatred too, might need to get some on rings it think.

nice to see this build is working out for everyone :)

initial gems please ?

Hey nice guide very well explained tho I'm still a bit noob with theory crafting and I have a little question.

Bandit cruel reward, wouldnt 12% physical damage woulb be better than 1 skillpoint with that build ?

Thank you,

No. because this build uses elemental damage, not physical

i'm currently trying to run it with purity, determination, grace, haste on mana
and wrath and anger on bloodmagic.

need another link to try it though (maybe vitality instead of determination or haste)
feels awesome to run around as a moving aura,
parties always welcome you :)

Started playing in OB, first char started having issues in act 3 cruel at lvl 51. So I decided to try this build out. And suprised at how much smoother it went this time :-)

Last night I soloed Merivel on Merciless at lvl 54. So far not much I cant kill in act2. Barely started there tho. Only mobs I realy hate are the ones with chaos dmg :-)

I'm lacking abit on resist atm. So need to see if I can fix that, but my dmg is great. 3k dmg on cleave and 3.4k on dual strike at lvl 54.

Thank you, wanted confirmation , I thought that with aura like hatred that convert some physical to magical it was like better to take that %phy reward instead of skillpoint but now I'll go for the skillpoint :)


Another question, is eldritch battery possible with that build ? or do you use energy shield as a part of your "main" defence ?

ps : sorry for bad english, its not my main language
