[0.10.0] Eldritch Battery Ethereal Knives Shadow [Videos Included]

Hi, I have a question about this ethereal knives. I just created an EK templar and I took the +% elemental dmg nodes so if I have a +x-y lightning dmg on a ring for example, will the lightning dmg affect EK? and if yes will those +% elemental dmg nodes affect EK dmg or will they be useless forever?

thanks

+ELE damage does not affect EK - % Cold damage would give you more cold damage however.
Hey guys - I thought I would give a post on how I feel this setup is:

I was hardcore - but voluntarily killed myself to play with some friends and brother on default - no biggie.

Here is my current gear (most of it is BAAAD - but I am flying through content so fast at the moment I dont even care to upgrade at this point)

LvL 49 Shadow:



And I must say - the combo between quillrain (ill get it 6S at some point with like 100 jewlers since its ilvl 68) and the heavy quiver with magnate is retarded. My EK at this point does nearly 1000DPS and just 1shots EVERYTHING). My clear speed is astronomical - and beartrap is doing almost 3000DPS - so single target damage is fine as well.

Overall very good build - and seems very viable late game. BTW - with magnate and the heavystroke quiver - the stunlock I have on enemies is kinda silly.
Why is Nullification removed at some point?

Yes it's really great. My bear traps are 25000 dps at lvl 76. EK is at 3400 dps :)
Awesome - good to see I made a good investment

Actually...I bought the quillrain already with 5S and the heavy stroke together for only 1 chaos a piece.

The magnate I had to spent quite a bit for - 1 exaulted, and 3 chaos - still worth it though as its an incredibly amazing belt.
One thing though - would it be worth using a Divine on my broadstroke to try and get a higher value on the Projectile speed? Its sitting at the lower end current on 62% (which honestly...seems fine for me) - 85%+ would be nice though.

Suggestions?
i just picked me up a broadstroke and a quill rain at level 36, and the difference is HUGE.

Question, should i keep "faster projectiles" attached to EK, even with quill rain, i'm pretty sure with both of them I'm hitting shit off my screen.

I'm having some bad luck getting Armor/ES or just Armor with the proper color/linked sockets, but at 36, my EK is just shy of 200 dps and my beartrap is just shy of 500, it's very very nice.

still having some mana regen issues, but didn't follow the build exactly, i 'skipped' the do this then respec thing, but my choice, i just drink more blue water lol.

I am using a lvl 3 clarity, with reduce mana, and hatred.

Can't wait to get Iron Will (added fire damage, just destroys my mana when added to EK at this time)
hmm does the actual physical damage on a dagger matter? or is it the chance to crit and spell damage only that matter?

nope it doesn't. only global crit chance, crit chance for spells and %spell damage mods on the dagger will matter for EK. Other mods that affect EK are %cast speed and %projectile speed
