[0.11.0] Etup's EK Build
|
My EK dps is 9.3k and ive no trouble with reflect. My unbuffed armor is at 15k. When you are running high maps its always good practice to have endurance charges up anyways. If you want to be super safe use molten shell or granite before you hit a mob

How should we run 2 Bear Traps after the switch to Blood Magic gems?
In order to support both with Culling and AFD, we'd need to either put them inside a 5L+ staff or take up 2 separate 4Ls with just Bear Trap and supports. I guess the latter option is better because most of the other skills we use that aren't EK don't require many supports at all, right? |

Been working on this build. Now at 55 and working through Merciless with relative ease. My question is at what point should I be thinking about swapping out the BM keystone to start running auras (just running Grace right now)?
Side question ... Should I just be focusing on spell damage and cast speed on gear (for damage)? Should crit be a focus at all? |

@etup: Which is more important?
a 6L and 300 armor and lowish stats, or a 5L and 1000 armor and good stats. Also which type of chest do you use (non kaoms)? Pure armor? Pure Evasion? Also, I crafted this last night. The chance to Vaal +1% maximum resists on an amulet is less than 1/300. Last edited by Daresso#3599 on Apr 29, 2013, 8:52:32 AM

" Uh, BM ? :/ Care to help me clarify why ? |
|
" I was just running 2 beartraps with culling strike and BM. You don't need to 5 link it to hit like a truck. Mess with the best, die like the rest.
|
|
" Pure evasion gear is always better then hybrid or pure armor, due to how IR converts the ev to armor - i don't know the formula and what-not, but I do know theres a difference and evasion is better. Mess with the best, die like the rest.
|
|
" The only reason I can think of why this would be true is because you get an intrinsic bonus to evasion from your dexterity, and no such bonus exists for pure armor. |
|
"1x30% + 3x40% auras with reduced mana + nodes use almost 100% of your mana pool so you simply don't have any mana left to use skills with mana. Also your life regen with high life + %-regen passives is so high that you can spam your skill as much as you like, even without life leech. EDIT: In other words you run auras with your mana and skills + Grace with BM gem. Last edited by juzz#2382 on Apr 29, 2013, 1:56:49 PM
