ReverendBizzarre: ele cleave templar [6k life, 45k+ dps]

I'm making a ele duelist, and was wondering how important the shock cluster is? It seems like everything dies so fast, that it's not completely necessary? I'm not positive though. My main is lvl 75, but I don't really have experience with melee and shocking, etc.

All dies so fast because of shock stack =)

Good build. Looking at those dps numbers as a Groun Slam mara all I can do is crawl in the corner and cry >.< .... it is so easy to go elemental that there is no point of going phys... thinking about reroll >:]

Yeah... spose the shock does add quite a bit. Im just undecided on my build so far. I have these weapons which can both be exalted twice.



The one might be really nice physical if I get that roll.... and the other could as well but itd be harder to get. Or they could both be triple ele dmgs. I have 2 exalts.... trying to get 4 so I can roll em both at once.

I thinm a combination of high phys + ele cold be really sick dmg... and then Hatred would add a ton more cold dmg too.

I dunno yet.

no point in rolling physical on swords for this build, it wont give any dps increase, youre better off selling that sword and buying a triple ele one, hatred will only add like 30% of the physical damage, which is not increase by anything except for str, it will be around 40 cold damage, not realy worth an exalt, you can buy 2 good triple ele sword with those orbs

Remember your old build very well from the last weeks of CB.

Being contemplating a build like this myself.
I was thinking about going more offensive though with EB instead of IR. With EB I can easily obtain 120+ mana/sec solving all mana issues completetly.

Some thing along those lines at 73ish. (going Oak/Kraityn/Oak)

Without IR it looks like it could be a problem getting defenses high enough.
5 endurance charges with Oak reward might help a bit though.


Any thoughts?


Last resort is to pay 1k$ for designing a unique granting IR :P

Hi I just dropped in to say that it looks like a very fun (and smart) build, good job. Was looking into something fun that uses frenzy/endurance charges (keeping them up is like a mini-game which really spices up the gameplay for me) and I'll definitely look into this build when I feel like starting a new char. Thanks.

Problem is 120/s does not solve mana issues, thats why i dont like EB you have to stop attacking at some point and wait for your mana to recharge if that point is right in a room full of mobs you might get smashed casue you cant leech life without attacking, 120/s will sustain only your attack keep in mind you have to cast enduring cry a lot, you have to curse, cast totems, traps whatever you fancy.

The other problem with going EB is no regen maps, you cant do those and its a mod that grants good IIQ.

So if you take EB i strongly suggest you still use a mana leech gem.

For EB ele cleave templar i would do something like this at around level 80 which is reachable quite easily:Passive skill tree build

If you do make a IR unique, slap life and rez on it and ill buy you a case of lager cause that would be such an awesome unique for this build :D

Love the build so far. First that I've played that feels robust enough to not splat and with any minor mistake or desync and still does sick damage (playing HC).

Still pretty new to game so I don't have any high level gear stocked up. Could use some advice on what items should be upgraded first. Thanks!

Cleave with CE, WED, LL, FA costs 28 mana per attack.

With a build like this you can achieve up to approx 3.8 APS, i.e. costing at most 106.4 mana per second. This can easily be covered by EB. With some %Mana regen on gear you should be able to run a surplus of 20+ mana/sec. I think this in general should be enough to cast utility spells. You will probably have a mana pool of around 200 so there should be a surplus to cast utility spells from too.

For Smothering/Stasis maps simply swap FA for ML.

I would worry more about defense issues than mana issues with the EB variant.

EDIT: I like your tree variant towards the shadow area. Many life nodes and the juicy 2x12 IAS nodes. Besides with the Dex nodes at the shadow area we can probably ditch the Agility nodes as well. Going to sacrifice the Diamond Skin and life regen nodes though.

hehe look how much attack speed there is at the shadow area, with my closed beta shadow with 2 APS swords and the same attack speed nodes i had 5 attacks per second, on 28 mana per second that is not going to get sustained very well by pure regen when you have to cast endu cry and curses etc.

The survivability will be no problem you have enough life and armor, both body and soul nodes are taken, that is 88% increase in armor, a lot more with inner forced determination.

You only sacrifice 5% to all resistances not all of the diamond skin because the other body and soul is taken, which is 10% resistances, should be quite easy to cap your resistances, and you can also take nullification node which provides some more mana and 10% resistances too if youre on the low side but you will probably be using purity anyway :D

Regeneration shouldnt be a big problem considering you will have a lot of armor and reisistances with inner forced purity and determination, you might even be able to run vitality as well alongside anger and wrath, dont forget to run discipline it increases mana after it levels.
