Cheap, Tanky, DPSy: Summon Raging Spirit [not updated for 1.3+]

On your guide under leveling -> tip you said: *You won't need to use discipline, vaal discipline, and you won't need to use clarity on blood magic. Instead I would recommend a cwdt-ec-ic-inc dur setup. But I see it on all your gear, so I'm bit confuse with that. Could you please advise.

thanks,

For leveling I recommend using eldritch battery. For the endgame build no more eldritch battery.

I understand the part for the eldritch battery. i'm confuse with the part where you said you don't need to use discipline, vaal discipline and clarity with blood magic, but you have all those aura on your gear.
For end game do you discipline, vaal discipline and clarity with blood magic?

I am using end game build with disc, vaal disc and blood magic clarity. When you are leveling you will use eldritch battery => no disc, no vaal disc. Since you have no disc, you can use clarity on mana without having to use blood magic.

Would this Scion build work for hybrid life/es?


Some of the pathing is pretty inefficient to be honest. Check out the FAQ for a life-based scion build and go from there.


How do you mean? To me, at least, the pathing looks very similar to the pure life scion in your FAQ (and I corrected a 30 dex pathing error here).

Other than that, the primary differences I see are:

that I skipped the flask effect nodes in favor of getting the ES & mana regen in the Witch start

The build has a little more mana regen from the pure life tree (115% vs 100%), as I took Dreamer and the Witch's flat ES +40% mana regen node instead of Quick Recovery

I did take the three 18% resists and Sentinel, to allow for my gear being crap, and I'll definitely spec out of those when I can comfortably get my resistsances capped without them, and move the points into increased aura effectiveness.

Do the tree's inefficiencies lie in the hybrid ES/life nodes I took? Would it be better if I cut out some of those in favor of filling out the Purity of Flesh cluster & the Scion life wheel?

Thanks a lot for replying, and for looking at my original tree!

Looks fine now. Prioritize getting lord of the dead, gravpact and influence asap. Those will noticably improve your DPS.

Sweet, thanks again for your input!
hi, i am running this build and currently running an alpha until i can get down to charisma. My question is, is my lack of es on chest/helmet really what is hindering me on my ES? my health right now is about 3,400, but i only have about 1,100 ES at lvl 71 running discipline.. That seems incredibly low. here is my gear:

Spoiler
here is my gear at the moment:


should i ditch the Atziri foible ideally? Maybe getting an ES chest and better regen rings is more important right now? I am at a loss towards where i should be investing my currency when i sell off my alpha.

thanks

You're playing on Beyond, and I'm not an expert on how to survive there. That said, atziri amu is actually very solid, it's the last thing I would upgrade. I would upgrade your chest to one that has a total ES+Life of at least 500. This will make a huge difference. After that, yes, you want to get rings with mana reg.
