40 mana makes or breaks that? lol

Currently yes. Can't tell yet how things look once i got all mana and reduced reservation nodes though. Might be able to drop it if you get mana on all gear.

Updated the guide with the final passive tree!

There are a few unblockable damage sources in this game, and i wanted to find a way to still easily survive against them. I found the solution in Zealot's Oath, feels like this was the last missing piece in this puzzle.

Now it's time to finish the build gear-wise, as i find my ES and Armour still too low.
Saving up for a nice 6l Saintly, hope RNG will be grateful within these days.

Also uploading a few new videos right now, one of them is pretty huge so it might take a while.

Thanks for noticing, something fucked up while i rewrote some parts. Fixed it now :)

I am somewhat new to the game and have been following your excellent guide. I have a question though. In your leveling guide and your level 87 CI build you have 2 odd choices on the Templar side. You have taken an 8% life node and 1% Life regen. With being CI and only having 1 life would it not be better to spec out of those and use the 2 points elsewhere?

The Life Regen is for Zealots Oath. With that node all life regen is applied to Energy Shield, and also calculated from your Max ES.

The 8% Life node is kinda wasted, but unfortunately there's no other way to get to the regen node behind. Atleast it helps a bit while leveling, before you go for CI.

Goodluck and have fun playing the game! :)

Vids finally done uploading, added Dual Sallazzang and Poorjoy's Asylum.

About the ladder one, i have no clue if i've done well or not. It took very long, but then again i have no clue what's a common clearing speed (actually killing everything, not skipping half of the map) without dying in there. The map was very rewarding though, gave me 6% Exp and 6x 69-71 maps. I guess with better gear, 20/20 gems and less desync it would take a lot less time. However, if you want to actually watch the video i'd recommend the boss fight at 33:30 and then the last ~30 mins, i've started taking more risk at that point.

Found a more efficient route in the passive tree, which gives more ES, mana and Spell Dmg and doesn't need the +40 Mana from Alira anymore. Updated with new trees and screenshots, now it's time to level all gems to 20 and finally get some better gear. Got two crafts in the making, but that might take very long for a regular player like me.

After a few days of mapping i've came to the conclusion that the last survivability changes gimped DPS too much to make Storm Call still viable with this build. However, i found a new main skill that fits just perfectly and provides way better clearing speed.

I will discontinue this guide and write a new one, it is basically the same build but cheaper to gear (Aegis is still good but not required), party friendly and has way better DPS.
