[2.4] Ren's Spectral Throw - Life or Low-Life & Physical or Elemental (Uber Atziri) - 280K/470K DPS

"
Do you think the low life would be ok as a first character for this upcoming league? (assuming no big nerfs to it) I've never done spectral throw or low life and it looks pretty fun. Would using the lorica armor in new league be fine until I can get a shavs? Or is this the kind of build that would need to be transitioned into after you have the high end items and perhaps need to be farmed for with either life spectral throw or another build altogether?


Low-life should be fine as your first character, you would just have to use Solaris Lorica in the mean time while saving up for Shavronne's. Also you would have to spec a bit more into energy shield than damge to make up for lack of the wrappings and try to get a shield with high energy shield.

Personally I think life based is better at the beginning since it can do more on a budget when starting in a new league - I suggest making a life based then respec or make a new char for low life when you have the money for Shavronnes.
Sincerely,
Ren

For low-life or Crown of Eye's builds, Wrath Fang adds more damage because the spell damage on it is multiplicative with attack damage that all adds up from our auras and other sources.

Loath Bane is usually optimal in life-based builds.

wrath fang gives like 3-4% more dps than loath bane
loath bane gives more leech from physical damage if you leech from the physical damage

We pick up the duelist leech nodes to leech from all attack damage :).

Hey, thanks for the guide!

Do you feel for the life based version, a shadow (trickster) would be viable as well?
I'm planning to begin playing again with AOW and got a somewhat highlevel shadow which
I'd like to use.

Alternatively just Shadow in general? Or is it a big fall off in potential?

The nice thing about shadow is how easy it makes it to cap your critical strike chance due to the trickster ascendancy, so it would be viable. However if you want it to be the most optimal, go Deadeye.

I can make a tree for shadow if you want.

I'm going to go the Life-based version of this build when the servers are up. Which nodes should I prioritize first in the skill tree? A step by step level up skill tree would be nice, also which skills do I level up first in the deadeye ascendency? Thanks for the guide!

For leveling I prioritize damage nodes, then life nodes, then crit nodes. I'll add a leveling section as soon as I get a chance to. In Deadeye prioritize Fast and Deadly since it will give you the most for 2 points.

Sure thing, I'll add that section when I get home.
