He use GMP, so it lower the dps and reflect. The dps are mostly because attack speed.

Thing is if he can evade a little he can refill a lot. Whereas when he cant evade anything he will always drop the ES.

I think it dont matter if he cant evade a lot, just if he can, because when he can, he refill.

Just my 2 cents.

Sure, there's a big difference between 0% chance to evade and 15% chance to evade.

My only point is that the 40% increased block from Rumi's heavily outclasses any advantage evasion will give you when it comes to reflect (my understanding is that stzbttln doesn't use Rumi's co-currently with his Jade flask). Regardless of whether you would RIP with another Foe Eye ring or not, I believe dropping Jade/EV for Rumi's is better overall. The only drawback is that Rumi's would take longer to refill because of the lack of a Surgeon mod. But the entire point of this build is to kill everything you see (and can't see) so I imagine refilling Rumi's doesn't take particularly long either.

And I think I need 6% block chance for the shield :/

WTB 6 T1 Spell/%ES/Flat ES/Mana Regen/Spell Crit/Block Chance Titanium Shield lol. Wish people would stop rolling random T2s ;)

About the shield, why don't you go blood magic like all the cool kids are doing right now? Sticking with a CI build? Also, if you want block chance on shield, I'm guessing you will be using rumi's concoction as well. Is the jump from 70% to 75% important enough to drop a resist?

The buff to Mortal Conviction was a "last minute" change in the most recent patch. In conjunction with Chris' stance on snapshotting auras, I don't think what is currently happening with auras and blood magic is intentional (and I think it will inevitably get nerfed).

I can cap my resistances without putting it on the shield. I PvP a lot and the sword + gem block reduction makes every block % count, especially since Rumi's isn't a sustainable option in PvP.

You mirrored my shield for me so i felt like sharing what i have done which is a bit diff to your build but imo achieves the same result and can clear a little faster with HoA.

build details are in there let me know what you think.

Is there a reason why most of thees builds I see are always going with Ambushers over slower dagger with higher physical, like Demon Daggers?
I understand Ambusher is very fast, but is that much speed really that much of a difference at this point? Plus with Acuity, wouldn't a higher Physical Damage Dagger that had slightly higher Crit chance also give you better return on your leech effects?
Or is the extra little bit of speed just that much of a difference?

Ok no one said more dps. The reason I said faster clear and also the reason i didn take witch nodes was for the extra life and shield to be able to spam atks, being able to get more es and life seemed right . HoI doesn't do much for me I'd rather use a Vaal haste but the space to run it or 2x purity auras for uber is there. Just food for thought not looking to damage anyone e-ego here
