" Thanks for input... I still have to play a bit with the gems as i didn't manage to get the sockets colors as wanted. I do have the ascendancy, therefore I have removed mele splash gem. I assume my mana problem comes from the fact that I still don't 1 shot mobs.. Also I use WoE as that was the only 2H unique I had. I will get the Atziri axe in the near future. |

" That shouldn't have anything to do with it. Poacher's mark alone gives you 10 mana per hit at say the low level of 14, and with multistrke you perform 3 attacks per 1 click so that's 30 mana IF you are hitting only 1 target. Say you are hitting 2 target at the same time with your splash that's 60 mana per 1 cast ( which already covers the cost of flicker strike ) .. and that's without counting so many other helpful things like : higher level poacher's mark, hitting more monsters at the same time, having some mana leech, your mana regen... I'm honestly baffled how you can experience any mana issues at all .. that's a mystery that really bothers me because i still can't figure it out!

What is your opinion on going for the rampart node rather than the random phys damage and health nodes near the marauder start? In relation to your sword 100 point tree and also maybe blade of cunning instead of razors edge, 1 less node and no wasted accuracy bonus?

In my opinion the 6 points that you need to spend to get rampart are not worth it.
As for "blade of cunning instead of razors edge" i haven't taken any of them. Razors edge is 6 points for 62% physical ( or ~10.2% physical per point ) Blade of cunning is 5 points for 44% physical and 8% attack speed ( or 8.8% physical and 1.6% attack speed per point ) Both are just worse compared to any random physical node you have immediate access to ( like those in the marauder and duelist start ) "I'm going to show you pain you never knew existed, you're going to see a whole new spectrum of pain!!!!!

My opinion: I agree that Blade of Cunning is too far away, and don't pick it up either. I really wish I could justify picking it up because of leech bonuses you get from Slayer.
I do get Slashing Comeback, Razor's Edge, and Blade Master for my sword tree though. I gain 156% sword damage and 16% attack speed compared to Korgoth's sword tree, but lose 18% life and 62% melee physical damage. Also I kind of like the bleeding from Razor's Edge, helps with Crematorium boss :) IGN: Frazetta Last edited by Sicyo#3422 on Apr 7, 2016, 11:31:37 AM

" well thats because my gem is not leveled and only gives 8mana/hit at level 8. even if it hits 3 times, that's 24mana. But if it hits 1 target, like a boss for ex, that's 8 mana/hit. Flicker costs 10mana.. so there is the mana problem. It seems like that mana leach on ring doesnt solve it. I assume when gem will be leveled mana problems will go away. |

Hold on hold on ... are you using multistrike? If you are .. that's 3 hits at the cost of 1 while still getting mana for each of those hits. Which means at least 24 mana ( in your case ) per 1 mana spending while attacking a single target ... how often do you attack a single target though ? Even bosses are accompanied by a monster pack ... it's just beyond me how you even find a way to attack 1 enemy with each hit.

This build is awesome love it thanks for the guide. I am level 81 been running 10 and 11 maps np. I changed a few things but still use the core of the build. I am going for the max amount of endurance charges as well as frenzy charges that i can get...im also using IC with cwdt so far its been great i have never suicided on a reflect mob but im sure i might the higher i go...no problems with mana because im using Hezmana's Bloodlust Vaal Axe i think it works great for this build lots of synergy...any way great guide thanks man

Thanks to Sicyo for the suggestion.
I've added a video containing 2 white Gorge map runs - one with Headhunter, one without for comparison: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YUkrixncmHI&feature=youtu.be "I'm going to show you pain you never knew existed, you're going to see a whole new spectrum of pain!!!!! Like a RAINBOW!"
