" Why did you take the Athleticism node in the Templar starting area, if you're CI? You can take the Power Charge Duration passive to link your tree and respec those 3 points, so you get 2 extra points to put in useful passives. Last edited by Os_Pirata#3858 on Dec 18, 2013, 7:26:14 PM

" Hi and thanks for sharing your experience! This build is great for fine-tuning gem setups as we make use of all gem slots and wish we had more :). Looking at gems in your gloves, do you think there is any difference if you take out one of two ice spears? They do not proc at the same time due to 250 ms cooldown, so for me it looks exactly the same as using just one ice spear. At least that's what I think and use one spear plus one fireball with cast when damage taken due to it. Maybe I am wrong? On the other hand I use two ice spears with cast when stunned due to high crit rate of this spell that you mentioned as well. Two ice spears can not proc at the same time due to 250 ms cooldown, so some procs are wasted. But there are still more procs than with one ice spear. And I think that crit rate compensates for the lost procs. I also use CwS+Discharge in Voidbringer gloves because Discahrge gets a free +1 level from the gloves. It can even become a 21 level discharge. |

" I took resists/skill point/endurance charge. Might drop resits with better gear or with Purity aura. Second aura needs a gem slot though and I don't want to take anything out :). |

" Thanks for sharing, very interesting! Glad it works in Domination as well :). |

" Hello, I did some new tests with charge generators now that that my crit chance has grown higher and ice spear + fireball with GMP gives nice and consistent procs: I find myself with 6 power charges almost all the time, so all good, thanks for pointing that out :) I had not thought of discharge in Voidbringer gloves for the extra gem level, silly me! Gonna swap boots > gloves asap... One thing I did not mention in my previous post: tempest shield adds a nice chunk of damage, it's definitely nice to have.

How do you guys fare without Shavronne's Revelation ring? I'm asking because I'm still leveling my witch, and haven't made the transition to the full gem setup in this build. I don't have this ring yet, so it'd be good to know if we can actually run this build without it.

The ring adds quite a bit of survivability which scales with your ES. I was doing fine without it but did die here and there. I would say quite a few situations that end up a close call with the ring would have been death without it. And it speeds up clear time as you don't have to wait for your ES cooldown to refill your es if it gets low.
Anyway if you can handle a few deaths its viable without the ring. Its not a dealbreaker I don't think, just have to be a bit more careful. Currently 7758 ES, level 84 Highest map i have seen so far is a level 77. |

Prob need to level up with some other standard build. This isnt viable untill you have Vaal pact,Ghost reaver and CI.
As with most CI builds the normal approach is to level with a life based build then use regrets to convert from life to ES and CI around level 60ish? I would think leveling as a standard manual discharge build would be fine, or Kripps burning discharge (more regrets), at least that way you would have some gems you will be using leveled already. Assuming you have the 2 Voll's items it should be easy enough. Basic dishcharge build uses the 2 Volls items to roll discharges. Cast a LMPed ice spear to build power charges then run around and discharge. Just have to watch out for elem reflect. |
