Will there be any problems if I follow the OPs build but skip on the Blood magic entirely?

I'd like to know this as well. What about replacing BM with 'Mana Flows' (which isn't out of the way, unlike BM)? With the points you save trying to get to BM, maybe you could put them into other important mana nodes?

I can simply tell you both BM is well worth it.
You don't have to pay attention to mana (which you'll run out of if you didn't have BM), you can level your skills up to max, because you don't need to adjust the mana usage, and you get 2/3 free flask slots to get what you most like.

Sry if this has been answered before but how do i regain my life after using my life for skills on blood magic,if i remember correctly life leech is based on physical dmg but since this is a elemental build does it still work?does the skill for eg LA do some physical damage instead of purely elemental?

I've noticed this alot;

Elemental Hit,
Weapon Elemental Damage,
Life on Hit,
Life Leech,
Reduced Mana,

Are all the basic gems ele Ranger needs, but so hard to get within the current economy.
So, I don't know right now what is best.

All above except Elemental Hit should be actually fairly easy to get since those are quest rewards (e.g finish act1 with templar and you'll get anger + weapon elemental dmg). Elemental Hit and Chain are probably the hardest to find.

Ah templar ok, probably will try, thanks.

Hi folks

I'll be updating this guide in the next few days but, like most of you, I am retesting builds and trying different gem setups with the new OB patch/changes.

My gear in OB is still very mediocre, so my first udpate will focus on a few viable builds rather than a detailed gear guide (although the basics of acquiring flat elemental damage will remain true).

The short version is that I'll be posting two or three trees (one more tanky/regen focussed, one more aggressive in dps but less tanky, and one utilising shock for all you...shockers), all of which have moved toward using Resolute Technique in the absence of diamond flasks.

Clearly if and when diamond flasks get reintroduced, I will adapt accordingly.

Thanks,
Petrov.
