Hey nice build Im running it currently lvl 64 in Breach SC and it's a lot of fun. I messed up and made flameblast the last build i did on the old league but this is doing pretty well. I've filled out the whole leveling tree and I'm trying to figure out where to go next. I'm dreading dropping clarity for the 2nd curse and those mana cost nodes look really nice. I was wondering why you didn't go there? I plan on going for the survivability on the right of templar and leaving the left for after I pick up eldritch zealots and the curse. So what do you think about the mana cost nodes and what order do you recommend i finish up?

Lvl 67 and i gotta say, things nice. Ive prob only spent around 3c and 1 alch on my gear and the dmg is nice for the amount of currency i spent. Ill prob get a Shift click macro cause its kinda annoying always having to shift click when placing the mines. but overall, build is nice.


Question, what would be some items that isnt so budget to make my damage even better and gear?

This is the first mine build I've tried, and I've taken this up to level 42 in Breach SC so far.

To those who've never used them before, you have to lay them with the skill, then press D to detonate. You can map that to QWERT, as well. Enemies can attack the mines to destroy them, and mine laying is super-awkward. I'd actually recommend not using them until you have Clever Construction, which makes them functionally invincible. Until then, most bosses killed the mines after a single cast (or in Merveil's case, before I could even detonate). Fire Trap/Orb of Storms worked very, very well in the beginning.

Got up to Act 4 Normal without running into many problems, but the pack sizes in breaches make laying mines difficult. Unless you're clicking right at your own feet, you won't lay a mine at all, and you're also liable to get stunned out of the mine-laying animation. Holding Shift when you activate the skill will place it at your own feet, instead of trying to blitz your way through enemies and dying. Shield Charge seems like a high-priority, just to get through dense mobs. Also, watch out for "Allies can't die" mods--your mine won't have the range to kill them from outside the pack (and you don't want to be inside).

I really want to give this build a shot in the endgame, since the damage output seems solid, but again, mines are awkward. Thanks for the build, whether I stick with it or not, I'm glad I got to try it.

Hey, i'm following this build for the new league. I'm a big noob so i'm not sure on a couple things.

When should I get the Zealot's Oath and Eldritch Battery passives? Currently lvl 66 btw.

Also i'm wondering why there is an Enfeeble is linked to CWDT but also another linked to the Blasphemy 3 link.
