The only problem is with dangerous SINGLE bosses, because to recharge the charges, you need to hit boss with frenzy at least once every 10-11 seconds, which can be dangerous. It depends, because for example Vaal is easy - you can hit him with frenzy all the time you need, he just stands there chilling most the time...

Wand with Frenzy on swap?

I love these life regen and attack speed from Blood Dance, so I even don't know, if I should change it. The problem is, that build is using so many uniqs, that it's hard to get life and resists, and if I get life and resists on boots, then I can free the amulet slot for Stone of Lazhwar for example, or helmet slot for Rat's Nest or Starkonja's Head.
Some advice would help me. SunnyRay - to the resque! [please!]

Yep, life and resists is the problem with Blood Dance.
Rainbowstrides have resists, Atziri's Step have life.
You have to compare Blood Dance not only to other boots, but to Rat's Nest, Maligaro's, Stone of Lazhwar, Thief's Torment, Romira's Banquet etc.
There is no clear "better" or "worse" here, its more a question of personal preference.
Well I should say, life regen is more like "get you life easier when you are winning anyway".

I mean it's cool, that you haven't problems with flasks and your hp is near always at full health.

But when you are in critical situation, it adds nothing, while Atziri's Step could dodge you from 1 hit kill attack, and just yellow boots will provide you life and resists to have more chances to survive in such critical situation.


So maybe Blood dance should be changed later, but then the problem of no regen and no life leech would be soooooo annoying...


P.S. thanks for idea of weapon swap with wand and frenzy! We can have there two wands, one with frenzy-increased critical strikes-power charge on critical and second with frenzy-culling strike-item rarity.

By the way, if we have two Void Battery on swap (what a sweet use for such cheap items!), we can have +2 power charges, so after turning back to Ungil's Gauches, we still will have +2 charges on us?

Don't know, looks life a snapshotting case.
You can test it by removing Kaom's Sign or whatever you have what adds charges.

By the way, SunnyRay, what you think of combinations without LMP/GMP?

ST - CoC - Firestorm - StormCall - lightning Arc for example.

Ofc , less projectiles - less chances to get several casts for one throw.

But still for single throw we can hit several opponents and get casts for each?

I think LMP/GMP are just too good. 6.3x/12.5x on previous page. No multiproj is 1.5x (3 spells instead of 2).

LMP/GMP may offer less dps when kiting single target, and even then I prefer LMP, because I don't like having to snipe while kiting.

Currently 88 in Invasion. Its been a supper easy ride, I've had MAYBE 2-3 close calls so far, mostly due to myself being stupid. Not too sure where I'm gonna go with my last couple points, but would love to find a way to get over to the witch flask nodes. They're just too damn good.

Recently swapped to a Cold Doryani's Invitation, from a 100+ hp belt, lost just over 300hp, but think overall it has been worth it. The extra damage is nice, the freeze chance on flasks, is better than I thought it would be, and the 1% life leech, is surprisingly sufficient, seeing as it is the only form of life leech I am using.

Current stats are:
4574 HP
1036 MP (89 left over after LVL 16 Clarity, Grace, and Purity of Ice)
64.7% Crit (with 4 power charges up) Wish I could improve this, honestly.
3.04 Attack Speed
6113 Evasion (37%)
40% Dodge
30% Spell Dodge
75% Block
42% Spell Block
69.2 Mana Regen


Current Gear


Really need to get a new chest, but fuck it, only a week left before this character gets deleted anyways lol.

I'm currently lvl 80 with these passive skills:

I'm not sure what i should go for next.

I have 83% chance to hit and 52% crit chance. Is it time to get those accuracy nodes? Weathered hunter cluster. Does it make most sense to do so?
Nothing totally wrong, but try getting a ring with Accuracy. Accuracy vs evasion check happens twice: first monster tries to evade a hit, then monster tries to evade a crit. For example, if you have 40% crit and 80% chance to hit, you will crit 40*0.8*0.8=25.6%. With 90% chance to hit it's 40*0.9*0.9=32.4%.

I've never heard about that. Could you link a source?

Sure, it's pretty much the common shadow tree though.


Bit of an update aswell, HP has gone up to 4602, and I finally 20/20'd by GMP, so attacks per second has increased to 3.21. Other than that, pretty much everything else is the same.
