[2.6 Video Guide] LOW BUDGET CI CWC AW Build Guide

Hey Ghazzy,

I guess I'm just kind of lost as to how to handle single-target damage while leveling with SRS. I haven't gotten my skill duration nodes yet...would that be a big boost?

I just zerged Cruel Malachai with an embarrassing number of rips and it just doesn't seem to perform correctly. It seems like spell-echo would be more or less mandatory for SRS while leveling...I have a molasses-like cast speed right now.

Any tips?

Edit: The toon is SieranTheMetalmancer if you want to take a peek.

Hey Kelossi,

You should look to get 1 skill duration cluster when lvling (or using) SRS. It makes a HUGE difference.
Spell Echo is always a nice thing to have (before you get Mistress of Sacrifice at least, after that it's completely useless).

Your support gems are incorrect as well.


SRS - Minion DMG - Melee Physical - Melee Splash
(If you wish to use Spell Echo which I'd personally wouldn't, you should replace Melee Physical).

Hey,

My pleasure, I got asked a lot since I've released so many summoner builds to do this as a proper guide. I'm glad you like it! :)

SRS usually only requires like 1-2 minion dmg clusters + 1 increased duration cluster. Make sure to use Spell Echo in the links untill you get Mistress of Sacrifice. If it's the char "ZizAW" then you are using proper gems just add spell echo! And tree doesn't need any changes either for lvling it if that's the character.
I do recommend having Spell Totem + Skeletons as decoys unless you feel comfortable using a decoy totem to keep yourself safe.


Edit: Change the gloves & abberaths horn for proper gear with life/res, the bated breath doesn't help you much whilst lvling due to low ammount of ES from gear. The blood of corruption amulet is really only there for Atziri kills tbh so go for a rare one (preferably a Jade Amulet for the dex).

thx for the repley, yes i know i have a very not optimal gear for lvling....will add spell echo and change some gear, already changed amulet , will add spell totem + skellies and look for a es shield till i can use the one i have(cant use it yet till high lvls.)

thinking about doing away with my golam chars gear its way overpriced for the performance, i mean ok its nice you can kill shaper while death but its not how i like it and the jewels alone cost me 13+ exalts.. for that i have a pretty much full gear set for a zizaran char :P

Zizaran is playing the high budget version of a CWC-AW Build. This is a low-budget version, the version i'm running on stream is a MF version for breachfarming currency :)

thats my plan to go MF as well if you look at the gear on my other char gready_smeagol_MF youll see its has almost the same gear you wield so i can use the ventors and the amulet and the gloves/belt/boots from that build and sell off the jewels(12+ex worth) and buy the remaining gear...debating if ill use the Cloak of Tawm'r Isley Savant's Robe i bought for 50 chaos :D ... skin of the loyal is nice to but it hurts your ES for about 2k..of a nice 6l vaal regalia...the Cloak of Tawm'r Isley Savant's Robe is nice for the IDed items and still gives you a good ES boost.
@tntkiller:

Absolutely, I feel that currently with the way I'm pushing MF farming it would have been enough to use any 6L (Tawmr preferably) but it would require me to use a 21/20 AW if i am to use IIQ gem!

Thanks for the guide, this helped give me the confidence that I could start out affordably and improve my gear as the currency becomes available. I'd initially been scared off by the budget of other AW builds, but you had some good ideas in here. Now I'm running a mix of the various builds out there and feeling great while mapping.

Cheers bro, glad you like it!
