1: You pick sovereignity to allow you to go hatred, Herald of ash and arctic armour together while having enough mana at lv 90~ to cast your totems with enough mana left.

What about pre-90? I just checked on standard character, with one mana amulet

and enlighten lvl1 i have just 30 mana with 17 lvl skills to cast totem 5L (when skill cost is exactly 30 mana), so i can cast jut 1 totem and have 0 mana, even not enough to recast warcry, to gain some mana back. Should i avoid AA until i get enlighten higher, or get more items with extra mana roll? Or avoid sovereignity until "late" game?

you don't go sovereignity pre 90, you NEED the base mana you gain per level to be able to achieve it and most likely you'll need at least a lv 2 enlighten as lv 1 enlighten does absolutely nothing for you.

So I'd just say try to get enlighten to lv 2, level to 90 and then go ahead and try sovereignity to run AA, you should have more than enough mana.


I did some testing for you back on the character I tested with and at lv 82 with sovereignity and a lv 3 enlighten I can run all the auras and have 71 mana at my disposal which I assume will go up to over 80 when I hit lv 90~ It's more than enough already to cast 2 totem, run to the next pack, cast enduring cry and recast 2 totems.

I made a test run in STD 2 days ago for a period of 12 hours and ended up reaching lvl 75 at the end.
I lvled up early with flame totem and fire trap untill lv 12 where I changed fire trap for firestorm while still using a +1 to fire socketed gem wand.

What about int problems? Or some int items for that?

EDIT: thought you meant end game int problems sorry, early game INT problems are solved simply with a lapis amulet really. If you get a +30 then you should be set.

If you feel like you still lack at lv 11 you can invest 1 point into the +30 INT node thats on our way in the skill tree that you can easily remove later on.

There are 3 legacy items but u don't need this items. Non-legacy facebreaker give you enought damage ( everything is in damage per second section). Second item: voidheart is no longer needed, because u will use 2x steel ring. Third : Meginord's Girdle. Difference between legacy and non-legacy is small.If you can afford legacy items, you will have more damage and mapping will be easier. But if you don't, it is not a big deal.

btw this is atm the best dmg ive ever got with the voidheart, so with the new steal ring wie should easy reach over 1million dps per totem WITH legacy stuff ofc

i will try to craft some rings in the essence league with good res high life and max phys dmg. so i should also get to 6k hp wich would be realy nice too

Hey Guggel :)

I'm looking forward to test the build in essence league. It really has potential!

Was wondering, does the totems "added melee damage while active" buff the other totem? Or is it only actual player damage?

yes the totem buffs itself with it ;)

Hey gug,

Really love this guide. Planning on going into the hardcore league with it. I am a bit concerned with the berserker ascendancy and ~150%
Max life in the tree, not sure if I will have enough defenses. I see this has a ton of block, does that offset the high life %? Or is there things I can do to increase my defenses.

Thanks!
