For one not going into armor but hoping evasion might be enough, and getting a little bit more for mana regen and ele resists.

Would be interested to hear your feedback on where you think this build will fall down compared to the original.

Also bonus build wise, the mana regen would tempt me to try and resurrect the explosive arrow/quill rain build i tried to work once but just could not keep up manawise...

- lack of armor
- elemental damages nodes are really bad for incinerate
- Mental Actuity is absolutely not worth it
- Evasion is very unreliable. You dodge 5 attacks and the 6th will obliterate you

Actually I dont know, there is quite alot wrong with this build. If your going for quill rain + cast on crit you need ALOT more crit than this. The build is made for noncrit projectile spells like incinerate

Thanks for your comments, i am still quite new to this building tree thing and am learning from what you are saying
i looked at my thoughts tweaked it a bit more

if necessary I can move a couple of points to grab the iron reflexes.

i think its weaker than your build a number of places (esp max mana), but gains a bit on evasion% (which can be armorfied)and elemental resists

I am enjoying running a lvl 60 witch close to your original 1.1.0 build (so need to get some re-specs to get to your 1.1.1 build :) ) but one area i am hurting on is trying to get decent elemental resists (nevermind the chaos..arrrgh)

forget the quill explosive arrow suggestion, it was just an attempt to salvage another concept i tried earlier that failed miserably due to mana costs (which this build has in spades)

is the build invasion viable?

Still waiting on more information of the bonus build. Would love to see the breakdown of its DPS and possibly a video or two of it in action. There is a new popular build going around that takes advantage of Windripper, the high crit bow. Here's the link: http://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/870140

Looking at that build, it looks very similar to the bonus build except yours has EB/MoM incorporated as well with a few less auras I believe. The problem with that build is Windripper costs like 40 exalts on Ambush but watching the videos for it, the DPS is INSANE.

Please post more info on the bonus build soon. I don't want to switch from the main build unless I can be sure it will be worth the respec.

One thing I am slightly confused on is the level of cwdt is needed. I see in your build you were using a higher level one, but I remember reading you didn't want to go past level 3 or something in the thread.

I'm pretty much brand new, but I wanted to play a ranged char with great aoe ranged damage that could also zoom around with whirling blades, so I tried the bonus build. This is my second char, and at 44 my highest level!

Ungils + crest of perandus makes the trip to 31 easy going, then everything really clicks with reduced mana for the auras and faster attacks for whirling blades. At 44, I'm using lvl 10 wrath, lvl 10 clarity, and lvl 9 arctic armor. Anger will have to wait a while, but i'm leveling it up too. I've got essentially no armor, but with evasion and block and 11% LL i'm surviving fine in a1cruel. I'm going for vaal pact and then iron reflexes, then I'll go pick up the life and str nodes I missed. I'll need some solid gear improvements before I pick up MoM, but I don't forsee any of this being a problem.

Here's my gear at 44:


I spent maybe a third of the orbs that I've found on this char or gear, roughly 8 chaos worth of alts/chroms/chaos including reduced mana gem. All in all, I've found the build has scaled really well with the difficulty of the content, and I'm looking forward to pushing it further. Current tooltip dps with ST using wrath, clarity, and AA is ~440.

So what is the ideal level for cast when damage taken, immortal call, enduring cry and molten shell?

Nice build.
I'm 85 with this build and i was playing with

Good armor/life/resist.

PS : i sell it if someone are interesting pm me ;)

Cool, I run with same armor. Only 4 link though. How hard is it to get it to 5 link?
Or should I spend chaos to buy a 5 link which have worse attributes than this nice rare?

its like you want but this chest is really cool for this build
