GhazzyTV - Essence Drain & Contagion (or Bane/Soulrend) Trickster [SC/HC/Uber Elder/Shaper]
Anyone else using the Vaal Timeless gem (Doryani)? For the Corrupted Soul keystone (20% life as ES, 50% dmg bypasses ES).
Literally gave me 2.1k ES at the cost of 1 gem slot and 1 passive point. You have to fish around to get one which doesn't screw up other nodes too bad but there isn't much in the radius in the jewel slot near MoM. As long your life is still equal to your ES this is a big increase to defense vs one shots. Vs multiple hits Ghost Dance does conflict a little bit with it though, since your effective ES is really your pool + 3 ghost dances charges which will be higher than your HP probably. But OTOH your effective life is buffed with a potion so it could even out. |

" Thank you for the reply, I'll try to get better armour. Also, I have a dropped Carcass Jack with maximum "area damage" roll, will it work with this build? | |
Also, I moved my Malevolence and Discipline auras into helmet, but it did not change the mana reservation. I think I will have to use a Devouring Diadem instead (which I dont really want to, I really like Vertex stats)

" I've been asking myself the same thing. Maybe someone else here knows the answer and can help |

" It will work since we use AOE skills. It is actually somewhat popular with this build. " Yea that was my bad since The Vertex reduces mana cost of skills not mana cost of reservation like The Devouring Diadem. Dont forget you dont need mana flask since you use EB/MoM. Get better flask to boost your survivability and/or damage. For Onslought I use Good enough for fast mapping. Последняя редакция: Sidad. Время: 30 июня 2019 г., 7:55:28

" You can certainly do that. EB lets you reserve all mana for Auras since you use ES instead of mana for skills and ES protects mana instead of life. More Auras = more damage/defense. If you have high enough ES then it makes sense to use MoM which lets you use ES to offset 30% damage instead of mana. i.e. I run Malvolence/Grace/Flesh and Stone for 100% mana reservation. 1200+ ES helps me offset one shots. | |
EB isnt for Contagion/ED, its for soulrend builds who cant sustain the manacost spamming soulrend
Anyone else looked at Wind Dancer from Maraketh Jewel? 20% less Damage taken if you haven't been Hit Recently 40% less Evasion Rating if you haven't been Hit Recently 20% more Evasion Rating if you've been Hit Recently (Comes from Brutal Restraint when sacrificed in the name of "Deshret") Brings me down from 61% evasion chance to 49% evasion chance but when I get hit I get bumped up to 65% evasion chance 20% DR on DoTs/degens is also pretty nice |

hello people, can anyone give me any tips to what i should look in order to improve the tooltip dps? Right now my ED in hideout deals 300k dot; against t16 bosses i have a lot of problems (especially the minotaur, i need more dps for him), and in general in the red maps i have some problems in clearing the monolith before the time runs out.
This is my gear:

I've got this corruption mod on my Vertex, will this mod increase Chill from Arctic Armour?

" Maybe that's just me, but I find that discipline isn't worth the hefty mana reservation. It feels like you can get 2 other mana reservations for the same price with more benefit. Given how much the helmet benefits mana reservations, I would socket 4 such gems into it. I really like Malevolence/Arctic Armour/Dread Banner/Flesh and Stone. Последняя редакция: WingsOfDomain.
