1.2 - Budget Life Physical Wander

crit chance rolled.

Nice, that'll crush everything for quite awhile for you!

Just did a double reflect (ele and phys) Cemetary (72) map for a Zana quest, even killed some reflect packs inside the map as well. It hurt but I was able to full clear the map. Only died on the boss because HOLY CRAP DAMAGE. Was very happy overall with how it went though!

Switch WED gem or red gem for Life Leech and reflect will do almost no damage to you.

I would...if I had one to switch out. I don't use any red sockets in my 5L. I don't plan on re-coloring either because I have a 1.1 atk speed wand so I really need to be using Faster Attacks. Like I said it hurt but it was very manageable. I didn't die to it once, and with good flask management it didn't even slow down my clear speed.

Isn't Cloak of Defiance better for this build?
It already has EB why no MoM? ES and Mana from CoD will help a lot with regen. Both for MoM and casting Power Siphon.
MoM protects from all damage, not just physical.

Nice idea but this is a budget build and a 5l CoD cost about 3.5 ex so... But it is some sort of nice upgrade for the build if u can affort it. And nobody have yet test that so we should w8 for the answer.

I've tested MoM, its not worth it because you dont have enough mana to sustain it.

Im not sure about Dmillz build but with my build, i run Hatred, HoA, Clarity, Haste, thats roughly 97% of my mana. That 3% won't be able to sustain MoM. Nor would it be worth it that you'd need to turn on Arctic armour everytime you get hit.

This is true.

This build hardy has any %max mana or %mana regen.
I don't think it can achieve 300 mana/sec. Maybe with some serious investment in ES gear.

I was thinking about other options, beside Lightning Coil (I know what the benefits are, I just don't think I'll be using it on this build).

So am considering some AR+EV based uniques:
Cherrubim's Maleficence - a ton of evasion, life and increased leech rate
Belly of the Beast - kind of low EV, the rest fits perfectly
Daresso's Defiance - nice Phys life leech and endurance charges

Or maybe getting a GG rare could be best in slot: EV+ES with high defenses, life and resists.
I would aim for 600+ evasion and 3-400+ ES if you add life and resists - it could cost several exalts even if unlinked.

I honestly think a rare would be more expensive than the uniques...

Definitely not MoM, we don't get enough mana/reduced aura nodes/mana regen to properly sustain it.

All three of those are good choices for chests. However don't discount how goddamn amazing Lightning Coil is when it comes to reducing physical/reflect damage.
