While leveling i pick up EC and IC from quests, but don't link them to codt since i usually don't have one. If i do get a codt drop, i link it only to EC. Most leveling areas are better with only EC. I switch to selfcast IC+EC for lunaris on cruel and lunaris on merciless (i don't like to running without IC trough packs of tentacle miscreations).

Cheapest wings on rampage are already 5c. Farm docks a bit and when you have enough to buy wings, respec out of Water Dancing cluster and take life nodes instead.

Another question:

How much life leech is good? I can't run Blood Magic in Beyond, and I'm having trouble with gear. My options until I get a 5L or a an item with leech is the nodes on the tree. The one near Shadow is 2% and life nodes, the one near RT is 3% and 4 life per hit.

Which you think is better? I have to start using blood magic; sucking on mana pots is annoying.

Tbh, if i had to level now, i would level using mana only and switch to BM gem only when i get BoR.

Do you have enough respec points to try taking Revelry and Dynamo? It should be good enough to support even a 5L with a bit of mana leech somewhere on gear. You'd need around 550 mana if you have Dynamo to support DS+FA+Multistrike+Melee phys+Splash with 2% mana leech. Revelry should help reduce that and provide enough sustainability coupled with some mana leech.

I dont have any to spare right now. Just hit the first node of the health wheel. In a couple I could be close to dynamo, but I might need more HP or block.

Heh, hell if I had even a smidge of life leech I'd prob. use blood magic, or be happy with mana leech. Leech is hard to come by atm.

But, I might try those nodes. Only thing is that means I prob. wont be able to use 2 aura's right? Right now I'm just using Hatred; I would like to use a resist aura, too.

Anyhow, even if I went either life leech cluster on the tree, I'm pretty far away from that, too. I'll have to drink pots for a bit.

If you complete Mercy Mission (medicine chest) on cruel, you get Reduced mana as quest reward. You might be able to support skills with mana and run both hatred and purity if you get it. Didnt test it thou...

So far I love this build. Just hit 80 last night and doing just over 15k dps. I must have run about 20 level 66-69 maps last night and only died once, my fault for not ID'ing a strongbox that froze me with two exiles in it. Once I finish tweaking flasks that will not happen again.

Anyway, how hard was it to do a 4l+2l in the WoE? Right now I have a 6s5l WoE and am clearing things quickly so I am collecting orbs to finish tweaking my gear. The boots are still not the right colors, even after I spent another ~17 chroms I ended up with 3 of the 4 colors on boots. I am sticking with this until I have over 50 chroms to spend. About how many fusings do you think it will take to get a 4l+2l on the 6s WoE?

Whatever number of fuse I hear other people think I will take that x2 with my luck :)

i am just here to say thanks. i play this build in rampage and its really funny.

Imo sell that 5L WoE and buy a 6S one with higher physical damage roll. Its not hard to 4L+2L, you'll need probably less then 20 fusings (unless you're unlucky linking it).

Why not just get Voraci to do the job for you since your luck is bad?

Have you tried having him add the chromatics? I did. I had a blue and green at the bottom and asked him to add 2 red. The top 2 turned red... the bottom both blue. It randomized the bottom 2 for me. I was annoyed. Ended up spending a few more chromes to do it myself. Maybe I got lucky.

6s a wings however I have not had any luck in. I got it to 4sockets where I will leave it for a while. Still need to put it all together. Man I wish I had more time.

basica lvl20 Blood Rage provides 6% life leech right. Well, if you use this tree you get 5% life leech from the tree. It is 22% less life for total 200% (this can be increased by removing the 2 nodes leading to Fell the Weak and using them on the scion life wheel to 207%) but you gain the leech and +2 life for each hit, +10 life for each kill.

You could also swap some life regen nodes now to make up the life if wanted but life regen is nice.



It'd be easy enough to get 1% life leech on gear to equal the blood rage and it's 1 less button to mash plus no worries on chaos resists.

Now, if comparing to 20% lvl20 blood rage then it's a little different since that is 9%. That would require 4% on only 2 rings and gloves for equal value.

****That's equal value Not counting the degen effect and regen from tree. Factor that in and 5% with that regen is actually equal or better. You're not taking 3.8% chaos damage per second (assuming 0% chaos resists).

then you can put enduring cry where blood rage was on the IC, duration BM 4link

Thoughts?
