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

Hi,

First off, I really liked the build and the whole guide in general. The effort is really apparent, and it's helped me a lot. There was another build I was looking at that involved going down to iron reflexes, but it was designed for a lightning arrow build. I wanted to try this build but somehow integrate iron reflexes as well because I really like my stats using that node. I know that's a lot of the skill tree to cover, but I made a potential build that uses iron reflexes. It's significantly less damage, but as I haven't made it to late game yet I don't really know if that would be a problem with this build.

I'll add a link to the skill tree and the build summary so I would appreciate input from anyone. Thanks again.

i like this build, I am playing ek/life regen/eb witch and I got many ideas from invalesco, and this thread was very helpful.

BUMPING CUZ I LOVE YOU

up to lvl 55 and enjoying the build, im still pretty weak mostly due to items i have but I am starting to see a improvement and where this build can really take off.

thanks

I still really can't decide on Chain or Fork for my EK Shadow. I can use both without mana issues, and I'm not really sure which is better. Any inputs?

Pierce(no damage reduction) :)
If you'd have to choose one, go with fork!
Chain is only used to reduce your damage due to physical reflect. Otherwise, why would you halve your DPS?

ok. I just tried new build and this, im sorry is not a good build. I tried with same gear, and end up with same life and + 1k es (not to mention, after respec i have 7 free points for later)

so in the end it was 1k es vs 300 mana. I do have NOT problems with mana because 100mana = 2x EK shots. With mana leech, i get plenty mana back immediately.

SO in the end. DO not try this build with battery. Because ES will give you much more life/survivability than u will get with just pure life and no es.

I disagree, I feel EB is really good for this build. Allows me to put on many defensive auras and still have mana to spam EK.

So what happens if I'm too lazy for the respec and go straight to EB without the evasion/shield nodes?

when i followed this guide, i could have 3-4 auras. Now i can have 4 easily with same ammount of life and +1.3k es
