[My Build] Under Construction

I would NOT do this as a first character. Make something cheap to farm on then come back to the flicker striker. I found INCREDIBLY good prices for my ES set and dagger (like I feel I ripped people off bad lol), even got lucky 5 linking my own chest and spent about 4ex total. This is for a very starter set, not to mention daggers on Domination are not very good yet. The build is very gear dependent and ES sets are expensive.

Ok I'm having a problem. So I hit 68 and was able to respec CI but just can't run 2 auras. I do fine with just discipline but damage is lower than I'd like without hatred. With 2 auras I am left with 79 mana and my flicker is 60. Obviously doesn't work. My reduced mana is level 16 right now, but I can steal a level 19 from my husband to bring me up to 99 mana. Still not enough though.

Here is my current build:


Now I can probably grab some mana on my level 40 ring which I'd like to replace but I still don't know if that is going to be enough. What mana are you running with for a 5L flicker? Ugh, not sure what to do besides just running one aura until I get a a few more mana regen/int nodes (I think Primal Spirit is the only one left though).

Here is current gear:

w-delete

Lindz, I had a TON of mana nodes when I first started this build, but I respec'd most of them for damage nodes recently. Try getting some rainbowstride boots if you can.



Those are pretty much my only source of mana right now and I do fine. I also use a level 20 reduced mana gem. Try to fill out those nodes where influence is. The reduced mana reserved is great, but the increased aura effect makes clarity work better as well. With the 2% mana leech node it should get better as your damage increases also.


-edit-

You also still have that 12% increased mana node in the Witch starting area. Also, I never really go CI unless I have the points to fill in the nodes after it. If you are hurting on ES you should be fine after you group those. The last one (infused shield) is more maximum energy shield, which is really good for us.

Just have in mind that going CI is expensive.Good CI gear is expensive.
Most players (playing the game more than me) don't suggest CI as a first char.
As for multistrike don't worry.You'll get that as a reward in merciless.

This is true :)

Hey, i need some advice with this thing iv'e hit a wall. I decided to make one yesterday because i had a lvl 72 witch with a full respec so i just copied your build as much as i could i'm missing a few damage nodes. Problem is i can't even do a 66 map with it haha it can do the docks alone but can't do anything in a party just has no defence at all so yeah im a little unsure on what to do about it.

Here's my gear


As you can see my helm and boots don't have gems in them so im not running any triggers at the moment because there's no way im going to get 4 red sockets in either of them so i might have to try get them with maligaros? prob the only way.

I'm not using death rush at the moment either i went to buy one in game just before and the guy said c/o 10ex i'm not paying over 10 ex for that shit if i don't really need it. But i have noticed that i do lack abit of leech im not leeching back enough ES to save my arse, i only have the 5% leech from blood rage.

My stats are: lvl 72
6.5kES.
No armour just 950EV so 15% dodge chance.
36% block chance of attacks and 8% of spells.
75 all res.
10k flicker no charges about 16-17k with.
LS 3.5k no clue what it's at with charges.
5% leech from rage.
I think im at about 51% crit chance with charges.
386% crit multi.

Heres my build


So yeah any advice on the situation would be rather handy. Cheers mate.

I did the same thing but with 99 resp points. I seem to have hit a similar wall. Similar gear Es, res all that good stuff and my dps is around 11 k without charges. I can't seem to sustain flicker all that well. Should I have all the charges up before I start flickering? I'm thinking both our problems is with dps. I even have abyssus on, but a shitty crit dagger as of now. Will dps solve the problem of sustaining though

edit: fixed problem
flicker-multi-inc crit damage-melesplash - PCPOC
frenzy-multi-faster attacks- mele physical
no need for LS
cwdt-enduring cry -immortal call- inc duration

Well, that's another reason your dps is lower. Putting PCoC directly on flicker strike is easier is basically going to waste a gem slot.. that's why I use lightning strike. I cast blood rage and spam lightning strike like 5 times and I'm at full charges. Then I can flicker around as much as I want. If my power charges drop to a few seconds I hit lightning strike once and it's full again.

It was the dagger that was the problem. picked up a very solid ~430 DPS dagger with high crit and attack speed and now ficker is shining at 60k DPS. Awesome build dude...I didn't think a build other than discharge was this op, bosses seem like a joke now. The reason I put pcoc on fs is because any more increase in DPS and reflect is a problem . I can do phys reflect maps with this DPS and its still enough to one shot mobs, esp with crit weakness curse. I highly refommend a level 7-12 cwdt with enduring immortal and inc duration. 7-12 depending on how much es u got. Got over 6k es so in leveled it to 10. Thanks again man for the awesome build idea for my witch :). I would like to see some MF alternatives the gear...got like 70 10 now with 60s in resist across the board ..I
