[2.5] Essence Drain Build Options (HC Uber Atziri/Shaper Viable)
Hi ProjectPT
Being a shadow life based (i´m following your guide and tree allocation points so far) how can I run discipline and clarity auras without lowering my total HP (you run them with bloodmagic support gem) because I really need it all to have higher survavility ratio, and I´m having mana issues on level 71. Thanks for the tuturial, been enjoying a lot the build so far! Luis | |
Sorry if this is a stupid question fairly new to the game.
if you don't plan on going CI/Low Life what stats should you focus on is it still ES? | |
" Pierce so you still have partial pierce when you haven't killed recently and allies cannot die appear. " Disc/Clarity on bloodmagic is for low life, you just run double curse and maybe clarity on mana as Life and 3rd curse (vuln) through witchfirebrew " if hybrid life ES - ES gear with life rolls on it, else just life/arm or life/evasion | |
whats your ed dot at currently?i am just wondering what sort of number i should be striving for

Can someone detail how people are surviving / sustaining during longer boss fights with this type of build? The health regen from ED against a single target is pitiful. Energy shield regen is only useful if you manage to avoid damage for a period of time and many fights these days have constant small AOE, especially on maps with burning ground and such.
I've made a number of builds 80-90 range and the only successful ones are those which can constantly leech life either instant or otherwise. Trying to simply avoid all damage isn't viable endgame. IGN: SoulCinder

What does this build use frenzy charges for? It seems like cast speed isn't all that useful for essence drain but I can't tell. Should I be taking swift killer as my second ascendancy or should I leave it for last?

" %4 MORE damage per charge |

Hi again, I have another question.
If I'm using a Cospri's Will, what weapon should I use? I assume I should use Breath of the Council, but how important is the extra duration? Would just a high damage spell wand be better? Or should I use an Essence of Delirium on a wand instead? Thanks! Last edited by HylianSage on Dec 21, 2016, 9:49:39 PM

" Curse effectiveness Enfeeble temp chains often makes it so bosses attacks arent' even fast enough or hit allowing ES recharge to activate. I can afk stand in Uber Izara and Argus... not sure how much tankier you want to be " Breath of Council or Delirium if you have cospr's (or both) | |
What do you think about singularity? I'm using consuming + shield for bosses and breath of the council + singularity for trash(unless map mods are crazy).
