Sounds good. I just think you'll need lots of +mana from gear to run all those aura + sustain a 5L frenzy. Unless you run some of those auras on life with blood magic ?

Just rerolled to this build after going BM/LA before. Im really exited to get to do some serious DMG!
After playing around last night i have a few issues.

1. I can't get the mana up and obtain mana-regen fast enough for Frenzy. I have read the tread in and out but still can't find what i'm doing wrong. Unbuffed i have about 880 mana and with all auras running i have about 200 left.
2. I'm getting pretty pawnd at the moment (witch i'm not really used to from my LA build). I know my RES are pretty crappy at the moment but i guess this is more of a glass cannon build...

Is all my problems caused by crappy gear and un leveled gems or have i missed something out?

Level 79
Here are my passive and gear ATM.

Now that you got Edritch Battery, you need to get some Energy Shield from gear to benefit from it ! Ideally, you should look for Hydrid Evasion/Energy shield gear. Try to get at least one piece of gear with 200 energy shield +. This is how you'll get the insane amount of mana that will allow you to run all those auras + sustain Frenzy. Look at the gear I'm using for examples.

If you're interested, I have this armor that I'm willing to sell at a reasonable price :




Also, try to get a bow with higher physical damage and ideally some local crit. Remember, this is not an elemental dmg build anymore. Its an hydrid build with more focus on physical than elemental.

Finally, to majorly improve your survability, try to get an average of 70+ life on every item you use (except the bow, of course) and at least 2% life leech. This is important. If you do get enough life on gear, you'll see that this is not a glass cannon build.

Hello,

Just few question from a beginner: isnt it to difficult to find gear with lots of Res/Life, as ur template don't give a lot.

Ur passive tree looks really good to me, but why in ur opinion (or opinion of other readers)is there so few reply to this post? Ur passive is perfect, so nothing more to say?
I am trying to follow this build now and so far it works pretty good. I really am enjoying the Ranged Attack totem with RoA, so damn fun. ;) I think its really smart of you to take EB as opposed to just mana nodes. Instead of Increased Critical on RoA, have you tried Concentrated Effect? I like it better and its more consistent damage I think. Great Guide and it's a shame more people haven't looked/posted on this thread. It truly is a sound guide and I think it deserves much more attention.

With the purity aura + the 8 to all resists from the passive tree, the build provides +35 resists to all elemental. After that, you need exactly 102 resist to all elemenal to get the max. Considering you can get up to 40 resist to a single elemental from a single mod, that means you need about 9 mods slots reserved for resists out of 63 mods slots (10 items x 6 mods + 2 implicit mods from rings). So, no, its not very hard.

Heh, good question and your own answer is probably at least partially right.

Thanks for your comments !

Concentrated effect for the RoA totem is a good idea. I'll give it a try. The mana cost is gonna be higher but I can certainly afford it.

I love the build, it is very fun to play, the RA totem is awesome and being able to sustain so many auras is quite OP.

I am still a glass cannon since I dont have good gear yet, thus said Death Harp bow is a very good one to lvl until you can afford a good rare with crit, the extra arrow does help, it has 100% crit multiplier and 10 ias also (it goes pretty cheap, I dropped mine tho).

Any uniques worth considering? Any way to have a balanced MF gear?

Thx for sharing this very fun build :)
