[0.11.0] Eldritch Battery/Armour Crit Dagger Shadow (Based off the CI Crit Dagger Shadow concept)

Could you post your items ?

As of now , this is what i've found :

Soo Id love some input since I'm a total noob to crafting.

Ive been trying to make a decent 4 link glove.

I got these from a white:

I had attack speed and life before regal. Now got strengh...is it worth exalting these?What are my chances of getting say armor % or chaos resist etc?

No, with an exalt you can buy better gloves already. Crafting rarely pays off.

i used a chaos orb on my belt and this came up



it made me smile =) i was hoping though that its an ES belt instead of an HP belt so i'll have more mana from EB

Trying this build and work great so far. I'm just mixing armor/ev, it´s seems quite efficient actually. Need just a good weapon (dagger of course). Some of us have tried this mix eef ? Thanks for this great guide inva

My apologies if this is a dumb question, but it's something that's been bothering me about this build:

Where does the life leech come from?

I know that Blood Rage and Warlord's Mark will add leech, but it's only of physical damage. Do the lightning strike projectiles deal physical damage or something? Does the leech come from somewhere else? Thanks for any help on this.

I believe LS damage depends of your weapon damage .

I don't know the exact number but it's something like 25% of LS's damage is physical so yes, it does provide life leech. If you go through the thread (not calling you out on anything, just pointing out) people have had problems and it's been said by Nagarashi among a few others countless times that having a better dagger solves those sustain problems. You hit harder, meaning more life leech. You kill faster, taking less damage, etc. etc.

I myself found the build easy up until about act 3 cruel, where I started having trouble. I wasn't dying, but it was taking a while to clear rooms just cause I hit soft and I was squishy. If you keep at it, and gear up properly, everything comes together nicely and you find the build is actually well done and very fun.

As a side note, life on hit is more mana intensive but it really helps until you can sustain yourself without it.

I'm currently 68 now, trying to farm up maps and get some more upgrades and was able to solo everything on merciless with little to no trouble aside Piety(bitch killed me 3 times).

If you want a reference point, my build doesn't stray off too much from the tree posted on the first page.
lvl 68
2.6k hp
700 mana (including es from EB)

w/ hatred, anger, wrath and clarity up I have about 130 mana to use which is enough cause of warlords mark+ mind drinker node
7k dps on double strike, 4.7k on lightning strike and 5k on flicker and this is without frenzy charges up.

Gear:

If you get around to reading this Nagarashi, mind helping me out with the priority of what I should upgrade next? Besides a dagger since I'm always looking for a better dagger, I just always seem to get sniped on bids on the forums :P

Sorry I can't afford the time to read all 60 pages but I was wondering about something. I am using 2 Granite and 3 mana flasks. What kind of prefix and suffix might i be looking for on my flasks?

Also I am still having mana regen issues at lvl 74. Running anger, wrath, haste, hatred. Blood Rage is a non issue for me and life stays pretty good. I am using mind drinker and warlords and I just cant keep it up. I have 2.6k HP and 900 Mana. Only 233 after the 4 auras.

My set up is this:


~4k dps on LS/FS/DS.

Any ideas to help this out? Besides Mana Leech gem? (I don't want to have to chrom the chest and lose added fire.

Thanks for any help you all can give!

You don't have enough physical damage on your dagger to run LS with WED.

I have a lvl 41 dagger with same damage (ok almost perfect roll but still), you can find waaay better in trade at lvl 70+. Choose a dagger with lower base attack speed : you'll get same DPS but less mana problems.



Having a good physical damage dagger will solve all of your mana problem. You could also try to find +physical damage gloves/rings if you can't find a dagger.

For the flasks : you want surgeon's flask of iron skins for your two granites, you should need only 1 mana pot, last one could be quicksilver or insta life. All surgeon's, and at least one should remove curse.
