Hey, thanks for great build. Just got to merciless and everything goes very smoothly. But its time to upgrade gear and i cant decide Kintsugi or Cospri chest? Dont have enough currency to test both :) Cospri feels superior for dps, but it seems must have curse on hit on gloves for it to poison reliably due to low blasphemy range.

Another thing to ask is pathing on tree. Why Entropy over Will of blades? Isnt it better 36% increase physical part then 47% dot part of spell?

Thanks

I've attempted to scan through the entire thread for an answer but wasn't entirely positive.

Two questions; the first being that we use (5-link) Cospri's without Poison due to the inherent poison correct? If so, we use whirling blade to hit enemies and go through them to poison? Or just in close range the curses apply and the spell "hits"?

The other question is about Bino's; i'm aware of the huge loss of spell damage from using it but the chaos damage (and heal)-- is there any way this could be a huge benefit?

Hello. Big fan of EK and Marauder class! So the idea of them working together GG!

Couple questions. Can you give any tips for HC variant of this build and what do you think about using the shark boots which give boosts depending on frenzy charges??
