2.6 Renewed Leary's Auramancer (Spectre, AW etc)(Great flexibility, Shaper farming!)

Got something I didn't think I wanted but love it. Was vaaling bones of Ullr for the +1 and got level 14 haste. Not as good as the lvl20 I had socketed but now I link culling strike to shield charge. Really nice for Guardians, Uber, and Shaper.

So, it seems like Severed in Sleep and Eye of Chayula are both roughly 3ex cheaper than their upgraded versions. Likewise, a 5L Shav's is roughly 3-4ex cheaper than a a 6L. That's a pretty significant swing in total build cost, and all of those upgrades cost about the same.

With that in mind, which would you say would the build gets the most utility out of?

I'm assuming NOT united in dream, since it sounds like Severed in Sleep is almost as good for this build's purposes.

How about the other two? Trying to get an idea of how budget this build could go and still retain most of it's strength.

Envy from United in Dream is a pretty substantial damage boost and the leech can save your zombies sometimes, and as is normal, a 6th link on your main skill provides a huge damage boost as well. Presence is a pretty substantial defense boost. Personally, I got United and Presence at the same time so I didn't experience them one at a time. I was doing chimera with a 5 link though, until I finally linked the damn thing. If you're looking for effective budget, maybe try out the midnight bargain variant while you generate currency for the united/presence/6link. Otherwise I'd say target the United or 6link first, more damage leads to faster kills which leads to faster loot. Unless of course, you're having trouble staying alive. Presence of Chayula is an easy 1000 ES

best Spectres/setup for uber lab?

Better endgame scaling, not a big difference, and you cant run anger with midnight, due to 30% life reserved.

You can't run Anger if you intend for your curses to remain auras, but if you instead curse on hit with ball lightning you get a few awesome interactions. First, you can curse things that would otherwise be waaaay outside of your curse aura, allowing you to sit back even more safely than normal. Second, if you use ball lightning you can pick up elemental equilibrium, which plays very nicely with flame sentinels. Increase their lightning resist, but lower that fire substantially for some sick damage. Anger can be put on a ring or on a shield for a level 23-24 gem, while envy will only ever be level 15. It just adds more flat damage.

How do you deal with the slow speed of ball lightning though? yes its great when its in proximity of monsters, but it moves about half as fast as you do. I tried it for a while (most of breach league) but in the end dropped it. without at least 50-100% projectile speed i dont really see it being super effective for most scenarios.

Maybe (definitely) you clear faster than I, but the speed's never been an issue for me. Ball Lightning hits in a pretty big area, so mobs tend to get debuffed by it before the flame sentinels (who fire very quickly, to be sure, but whose projectiles don't pierce enemies) can kill them.

I think i've got everything. I'm lvl 86 and I can't run all my auras. I can get them all active but then i'm left with 10mana which is not enough to cast my wither setup. Is there something i'm missing? Do i need more intelligence or mana inc % ?? I will link my gear. I have 575 int 129str and 155dex

You have to use a level 1 wither.

Hi, have been a very long time fan and appreciate your guides.

Can someone please help me with my aura reservation.

I can reserve 99% of my Mana and leave about 30 left with this setup, a little low bit it's not too bad.

But when I try to use my life for Purity of Ice/Lightning + Discipline + Envy, it will not let me use this much health reservation.

I am also running double curse from Blasphemy.

Does anyone see what is going on? I have all reduced mana nodes and +4% reduced mana helmet.

My characters name is Solnuse.

Any help is appreciated.

Thank you.
