Well I have a 53 EK marauder so I might go with a spark shadow. You think I should go a similar crit build but just get static blows? Any idea on a tree?

Shadow or witch?

These are prob some of the offense you need.. Not too sure if you want to go ES/CI or some type of hp build but... Can maybe fill it in now with what you want to do for survivability, str / dex requirements. I didn't spend a lot of time on that right now but you could maybe even drop less spell damage for more cast or crit, and definitely es or hp depending on what you want to build.

Edited this a few times so refresh to make sure you see the latest. This just had the light damage nodes and static blows.

Here is an ES/CI one similar to mine but more for lightning damage / spark:

Might have to get more dex/str. Still checking it out to see if I missed something. You can add more crit or cast speed, multiplier depending on how you want to take it.

Hi there, very nice and detailed guide! I was looking over your ghost reaver build and have an alternative, more defensive suggestion for the same skill points:

Basically gives you +20% resists just from passives and slightly better ES numbers (especially recharge delay) + 20 more dex from passives at the cost of an extra +10% spell damage modifier. Might be a worthwhile choice.

Loving EK and glad I re-rolled from my Ranger. Just wondering if anyone has any low level gear laying around they dont use anymore I could buy? Level 15-30. I will pay just cant find any drops and I blew all my Alch Orbs leveling my Ranger so I cant roll anymore rares.

Checking this out, this is pretty sweet. Definitely a better approach imo if you are going to get ghost reaver. I am going to compare this path to my build and see what the differences are. Thanks a lot for posting this. Do you mind if I edit this in my post? Gotta afk a few now but definitely wanting to compare with mine as far as min/maxing.

Here is the build I came up with. It has less crit but more defensive stats:

I got any gear posted for people on the bottom of my OP first page post but don't have too much atm for lower level.

Sure, feel free to use it as you see fit! I wouldn't be surprised if you could wring a bit more out of the general approach, I threw it together pretty quickly so there could definitely be an even more efficient pathing.

The one you put up works so well with ghost reaver, its great. I was trying to find a way to make up for the missing crit but couldn't figure it out atm. Might stare at the tree for some hours another time with it. It is really good to build defensive, it sucks dying and losing X amount of time in xp and can make the farm much smoother and enjoyable.

Ahh, trying to find this out. There are some variations to my current setup to make it a lot more defensive and supportive to ES regen with life leech but.. Never looked much at this passive but trying to find out more on it now and will let you know.

Right from wiki.

Updated OP a bit and posted another video.
