You need the faster casting gem because the EK base cast speed is very slow and the animation takes to long. There isn't much else you can add in your links anyway.

The faster you cast, the more mana you burn in order to get the same DPS.
If you can't spam EK then is not a DPS gain is it?
My 6L EK costs 109 mana per attack and I cast ever 0.56 seconds. That means I need about 200 mana regen in order to spam it. If I add more cast speed it means I need to add more mana regen as well in order to keep up, to up my DPS. But if I add spell power/crit chance/crit multiplier I am upping my DPS with the need of more mana regen.
Its just common sense.

And Scion is not ideal for this build because she wastes to many points on +10 INT nodes traveling across the skill tree to get to the needed nodes.


You can try this but it will have less life and less DPS compare to the witch.
You will need to get more skill points in order to be on par with the witch.

Scion (103/120)

So, Rathis .. Cast when damage taken only triggers 1 spell when activated, yet on 2 items you've 2 speels, 1 cwdt, and 1 additonal support .. Is this something you just switch out?

Why do we need Elemental Dominion if EK does Phy Dmg?
I see Scion takes 4 INT nodes to reach the Witch tree after Harrier. Is that much?

First of all my witch is level 86 and decently itemized. You are still missing a lot of DPS nodes and aura enhanced nodes that add to the DPS from hatred.

DPS will come mostly from weapon, then shield, then amulet, in that order.
If you are playing on nemesis focus on survival first.

I can't decide for you what to upgrade. Just look at my gear and try to match it or surpassed it.
