How would you go about getting a +1 chest beside a Tabula?

do you buy good rolled ones vaal until you get +1 and the use Vorici or just save up currency to buy an already 6L one?

about the shield, are you sure an armour shield on an armour caster isn't better than a spell damage shield? AR Shield can get more than 1500 AR.

I'd buy a +1 vaaled one, hopefully 6s, but if not, just +1, and use Vorici 8. Expensive, but reliable.

As for the shield, 100% sure.

jesus that gotta cost quite a few Vaal Orbs, does he also charges 1 vaal orb for each chromatic if you want to recolour?

Well, you're talking about the most BiS of gear, and not something ANYONE needs to run the build.

I know, just trying to picture the end-end game and if want to go there what would it require of me, any critiques on my tree and gear would also be welcome, thank you for your attention mate!

"Poison adds over 100% MORE damage"
think i saw this fixed somewere?

why atziri instead of good rare? for the spell dodge?
i preffer to be resi capped for ele weakness maps too, i feel its really hard with all these uniqs you use

The Poison used to do even more due to a bug on some skills. It's still about 120-130% MORE for me.

Yes, for Spell Dodge, and Life/MS.

I also play capped for ele weakness, but it's quite possible with all the uniques. Skip the belt if that's a bit much, at first.

Great build, playing it in Talisman at the moment, have 50K DPS in a +1 Rasa with a level 2 Empower and still a 0 quality and level 19 EK. I'm running Warlord's mark and blasphemy to sustain mana. I'm sitting on 5.3K Life and loving this build. I would try Atziri if I had better internet with less than a constent 250+ ping and desyncs. Can you maybe update the Shadow Magic Missile tree for 2.1, if already can you please give me the link... Keep up the great work man. :)

Will try to find the time to update soon. For now, a spoiler:

Hello, and welcome to my/our guide to Ethereal Knives! ...and Bladefall. ;)
Happy gaming!

At the beginning I would like to thank You for this build my friend. I never thought that i will play other hero then the Marauder.

This build is really nice and very smooth to play. Of course, you need time to learn good movements, but is not so hard as I expected.

Till 88 lvl i was able to use Tabula and it was rly, rly funny. Now my stuff looks like this:



I made some changes with gems, for example i like to use Flame Totem + Temporar Chains - sometimes it's very helpful when you need to buy time and space - instead Blood Rage. Also I did small changes in skill tree, but rly small coz of jewels which I have.

I'm still in development, but this build addicted me so much like nothing else.

One more time: THANK YOU.

Regards

p.s.
sorry for my english, but is not my native language.

Updated with my Talisman build.

Feels several times stronger than the older version, and certainly safer (even vs. Reflect). DPS is spread out over a few seconds, but it's HUGE.

Got the boots, only real upgrade left is Empower 4 instead of Faster Casting 20/20.

DPS atm is slightly less than 170k with just Charges.

Counting dps from poison is not correct, since most monsters die in less than 0.5s. IMO poison only shines against bosses / PvP.
I feel that Piercing shots is a must: 3 points for 20% dmg and 30% Pierce change is huge.
I modified a build a little bit, 6k6 life in tabula +1, hideout dps is 88k, mana regen 220, running AA.
