Definitely get yourself at Atziri's Foible, that will help a ton. That's cheap. Then get a Cloak of Defiance, that's a massive help. The rest is getting increased mana regen rate on your gear and tree.

Sup, I did conquerors at awa3 (now at awa4) and hardly had issues, you don't need sigil at bosses, t12-13 bosses are not hard with no dmg boost (like % phys to cold dmg for example).
You should aim for enchant on your boots and mana regen in weaps, crafted if it is too expensive, other big boost to mana regen is CoD, that 1% is a lot above 7k mana pool, the loose with clarity at lvl 1 vs lvl 20 is like 4% dmg but the mana regen is a lot. Don't forget to use AM to proc Arcane Surge, another big mana regen if you are struggling at bosses with no adds, as you no longer regen 2% per kill and those BB cost a lot, kite around the boss, shouldn't be that hard. I'm at 8k mana poll and 3.8 k life, struggling only on ultims, like sometimes I get overrated and is hard to continue or I die.

Hi,

Is Thread of Hope setup really worth it? I see it costs a lot of points just to get Frenzy charge for mapping? With the same number of points, I think we can get more return from mana nodes. Frenzy charge can be obtained from running Blood Rage.

Thanks

Thank you for the advice.

Am I reading the Clarity gem wrong? From what I see at level 20, I am only adding 33 mana per second regen. That does not seem like it is going to make much difference when my 8k pool gets drained with no ads.

I may try it though while waiting to make the move to Foible..

How come everyone anoints Mind Drinker instead of Mana Flows?

Скрытый текст

Seems like a lot of people are talking about scraping by on mana regen, and Mind Drinker does nothing for you on bosses right?

Or is it necessary to recover from pack to pack while clearing?

The only archmage builds I've played were storm brand when it first came out, and blade vortex indigon last league, both of which just cheesed it instead of actually casting spells, so maybe I'm underestimating the expenditure of actually hardcasting with archmage.
