Perz' Reave Shadow

Quick question Perz, would Iron Reflexes work well with this build? It's only 1 node away, and i feel the armor would serve better than evasion. Would prevent you from getting one-shotted...
Thanks

Has anyone figured out the optimum level for molten shell for this build? I'm keeping mine at lvl 7 with a lvl 1 CWDT at the moment, but I feel like it may work better leveled slightly. Also I'm using enfeeble with the same CWDT rather than vuln, for the time being. Thanks

this may answer your question:

Now when 3 aura build isn't possible we could replace "Alpha's Howl" for "Dream Fragments".
That gives us chance to wear high EV/ES helms which give additional boost to our defence.


cons:

- no "cannot be chilled" mode
(most of the time this will not affect your gameplay at all)

pros:

- 2k+ ES (which is huge defence boost)




"Dream Fragments" has 20% more mana and 50% mana regeneration suffixes which should be enough to compensate "Alpha's" reduction.
I'd pick 2000 ES more over "cannot be chilled" any time.

Anyone tried this? Opinions?

alpha's howl recudes mana reserved, dream fragments doesn't. the mods on that ring don't compensate the loss of alpha's howl. cannot be chilled is a core property of this build - i won't ever play this char without it. if you wear an eva/es helmet instead, you won't gain 2k es but approximatly 300*3=900 es. also you will lose +2 aura lvls which results in loss of es from discipline and evasion/dmg from grace/hatred. if i wanted more es, i'd go for a rare eva/es armor.

so to sum it up: bad idea and not an option.

With Alpha's and reduced mana gem I have 170 mana left.
Without Alpha's it's around 140 mana left but with 50% mana regen more.

From 2+ aura levels "Discipline" benefits for 32 ES.
Hatred benefits for 1% damage.

But yes, it's a bad idea.
- 1 ring slot lost/ a lot of evasion lost, ES gain isn't worth it
- your core stat lost

Thanks for fast respone. :)

50% mana regen is nice to have but it is nothing compared to the mana leech.
remeber that the casted auras are buffed by passive nodes. the es loss of -2 lvl discpline is actually 130 on my reaver.

added a armor-based section to the build
improved the style a bit

I adapted your build into a dual claw version with iron reflexes, so far I'm loving the 100% chill avoidance...
Makes library archive farming so much faster and safer...
Thank you :>
Hey guys,
i have a quick question. At what point would you recommend going CI? Currently i'm going to get vaal pact before getting CI but i dont know if its the right choice because i have like 520 ES.
