I am following Mathil's trickster guide fairly closely and am sitting at lvl60 and comfortably dealing with most things. I am levelling life based with the intention of swapping out to CI soon. I was just wondering what a good time to spec into CI is? I am beginning to feel the impact of having very little life (just over 2k and a about 700es). Is lvl 60 too early to spec into CI? I have the currrency to buy moderate to decent ES shield/boots/helm but nothing crazy at this stage.

I made the switch around 60, but had been gearing for hybrid and putting passives into es from the start. when i switched over to CI i waited to grab all the points behind CI as well, and swapped in an Energy from within jewel into the socket between shadow/witch/scion to turn the hybrid cluster into a pure es cluster. Now i'm sitting around 5k es without my merc labs (thus no 500 bonus base es) and using garbage boots, mediocre everything else, and having no real problems.

Stupid question but why does mathil use a lvl 3 lifeleech? why not leveling it up?

because the % leech doesn't scale with level, only the leech rate, which is a dead stat given vaal pact makes all life leech instant.
hey i am interested to this build, having some questions here:

1. why is this build not using voll's devotion? using devotion will significantly increase the dps output, am i right?
2. are we solely depend on voll's chest to generate charges?
3. what are the best mods on weapons for this build?

Thanks in advance.
Hello, i've a question about EE and charges on this build, im currently lvl 92 with my CI trickster shadow using call of the brohood ring. I want to use volls devo and my question is if i should have cold dmg on the gear to proc EE for fire and lightning and if i should get extra endurance from oak in merciless.
If you read a bit the thread all this is answered already.

IT DOES, but its a luxury item.

2. are we solely depend on voll's chest to generate charges?

Voll's to generate Power charges

Voll devotion / Warlord mark to generate Endurance Charges

Blood rage / Poachers mark to generate Frenzy charges

You can also use Skyforth + 6L with "Power charge on crit" gem (as i do in my lowlife version)


3. what are the best mods on weapons for this build?



Thanks in advance.

If you are going to use Voll devo u HAVE TO DROP CotB as it turns half of ur LIGHT damage to COLD and your voll devotion gives you FIRE damage. so theres 2 setups:

CotB + fire damage to proc EE and NO VOLL DEVOTION
Voll devotion + cold damage to proc EE and NO CotB

For the charges i recomend Allira (Power charge)
FatherFakener (Trickster Fakener CI)
Severne_I (LowLife Fakener)
Severne_II (Inquisitor Crit Life Storm Caller)
MCLMXXXVIII (Champion Oro's Flicker)


This is my gear at lvl 94.

Pretty much facerolling everything. How do you guys deal with ele reflect mobs? I like to use +1 magnate sometimes, it's awesome. :D
Finally got all the gear I wanted on my first Fakener lvl 93, it's been a blast :



Not sure what to updrade next. I got 10k ES with my current setup under discipline, but with a 450+ hubris or a 500+ spell damage titanium shield 11k might be possible. +1 curse voll's devo would be nice too if I could ever afford it.

Saffell's + purities if you don't want to worry about reflect. I just deal with reflect rares carefully but I can die to them on -%max maps.
How does the trickster/CI variant deal with stun and freeze? It seems relying on cyclone for stun immunity is a bit dangerous. Although for the relatively small time you're not cycloning, IC should be while using Voll's.

OTOH, flasks for freeze immunity?

Current Gear:
Spoiler

6966 ES
33,5k lvl 19 discharge dmg, ~40k with lvl 21, but still didn't manage to do uber. What should I upgrade first? Is it worth to swap my current shield for
?

Hey guys, math question for ya'll.

I have 79% fire resistance, and 75% lightning resistance. When I discharge, 53% of my damage comes from lightning, and 47% comes from fire.

So, if I hit a reflect mob (15% of damage reflected back), I should take

0.15*0.53*0.25 = 1.95% of my damage reflected as lightning
0.15*0.47*0.21 = 1.48% of my damage reflect as fire

So I should take 1.95%+1.48% = 3.43% of my damage refleted.

I'm an ascendant with Berseker (1.5% life leech), and I curse with Warlord's mark (2.0% life leech). So when I hit an enemy, I should leech back 3.5% of my damage.

...But I still die to reflect. I have 9K ES, so I'm not one-shotting myself. I leech more damage than is reflected back to me. Why do I still die to reflect???

Still in the process with this character, but like to lv many then just focus on one build. With mathil not going over gem links etc, it's hard to grasp what links he's using for sure/lv'ing process. For lv'ing I took advantage of tabula and storm cloud. I'd thought I'd do a break down/share of lv'ing with the build as trickster.

This is in regards to the 2.2 Call of the Brotherhood, Non-voll's devotion update/build.

Links?

3L= G,G,R_ Faster Attacks, Fortify, Whirling blades.
3L= R,G,B_ Increased duration, Vaal Discipline, Vaal Haste.
5/6L= R,B,B,G,G,//B_ Life leech, Discharge, Increased Crit. strikes, Cyclone, Cast on Crit. /(if 6L> + Conc. /Inc. Area.)
4L= R,R,G,B_ Reduced Mana, Blade vortex(lv1), Spell Echo, Increased Duration.
2L= B,B_ Blasphemy, Assassin's Mark
1=G_ Summon Ice Golem
1=B_ Discipline

Skill's up to this point. spilt arrow/ice shot/added cold/added thunder/wed, herald of ice/thunder/clarity.



31-40

@38 we can make the switch with 5l/6l voll's coc/ll/discharge/ics/cyclone dual weld 2x Ungil's Gauche + Ungil's harmony. Mainly living off of ll/es with pots when into health pool.

http://www.poeplanner.com/AAAABAYCAUV8l5f79bQ45RmMNonTcFIqC13yDkgRln_GkyfviPk3189JsQcelS7w1UlRvorK07QMRnGDCW-eykpfsJu1wzqExaEvbAsi9G0Zj_rQ0Oq6DXwqOF9qkBtwVpoT29SX9FJTPV-XlQkgo6M=


41-50

We should be able to switch to are vagan dagger in here and use EE.

55-60

we can switch to Ci at 55 using voidbringer's/vagan dagger+es shield/30% movement+resist es feet. Also using "Energy from within" jewel, between shadow/scion.

http://www.poeplanner.com/AAAABAYCMUV8l5f79bQ45RmMNonTcFIqC13yDkgRln_GkyfviPk3189JsQcelS7w1UlRvorK07QMRnGDCW-eykpfsJu1wzqExaEvbAsi9G0Zj_rQ0Oq6DXwqOF9qkBtwVpoT29SX9FJTPV-XlUcG8uFjQ0yzIG5QMFfJKPqYrewYLL8V14auVmMRUDW5pyvbXgkgo6M=


60-70

Are head is most likely 69(hubris) and feet 67(steppan eard) with this in mind we aim for resistance nodes, to be ready to cap resistances while we drop are old es feet/head.

~70 we drop Ungils harmony and get are neck while grabbing true strike cluster+ last power charge + final gearing for es/resistance.

71-80

This is where I'm at atm writing this, grabbing some jewel/es nodes and switching to facebreakers if your es seems fine.
