[0.11.0] Etup's EK Build

my friend has a modified version of this build. He runs a shield and wand. Dude has like 60%++ damage reduction with an high chance to block.

He's taking a break, until the "Path of Dual Sporks" gets fixed.
Mess with the best, die like the rest.
Hi guys,

This build looks really attractive, but I am very worried about it's damage. I don't see any crit or spell damage really....how is the EK damage with this build?
EK doesn't need 25k dps to clear screens.

you can clear 70+ level packs in 1-2 seconds with just 7k dps.

EK + crit vs 5+ reflect pack = you die, even with 30k armor.

EK can reach 300% bonus damage with 0 talent investment (80-100% from iron grip gem + 18 oak reward + 25 rustic sash + 200 if dual wield or 150 if wandnshield + 25 from faster projectile gem).

I've been following the newbie friendly GS marauder build 4.0 but I'm reaching the point/wealth where I can afford good gear.

For farming (solo mostly), would this spec be worth the investment to switch over to for speed/efficiency purposes?

Would appreciate advice from any experienced player, ty
New staff. Pm'd you Khoned.

The chance to Vaal +1% maximum resists on an amulet is less than 1/300.

Why is everyone using a staff with this build?

Simply because they have a Kaoms? If you don't have a Kaoms is it better to dual wield wands?

With just a rank 18-20 gem in your possession, you can have a near-naked character clear docks in 3-4 minutes tops with EK. It's amazing for just 1-shot clearing farm areas.

Yes, or a shield to augment your defense. People use staves because it provides the 6L you lose from using Koams.

Really need some help with how to gear for EK.

I am level 40 at the moment and got tired of ground slam, so I switched to EK.

I'm fairly sure that I want to continue to dual wield wands.

What stats should I be looking for on my wands and in what priority?

1. Lots of spell damage
2. Faster Casting
3. Faster Projectile speed
4. Crit??
5. Physical Damage??

Here is what I currently have..


What stats are important for my rings/ammy, aside from resists and spell dmg/cast speed/proj speed?

Is it better to stack proj speed, or cast speed?

Would a rare rustic sash be best for my belt slot? What about Magnate or Meginords?
