I am also thinking to replace my gloves with Shaper's touch.
Change Grace aura to Arctic Armour to save some mana.
Then use 4L Essence drain for single target DPS.
I might use this 4L setup to do Shaper instead of Blight.
Thanks again!
Hey, I thought about another replacement. I mean, is the helmet that important with the Level 10 Void Gaze? In case you have troubles with mana, we could go with another unique helmet, called "Alpha's Howl".
It would increase our Aura's from the helmet by 2 levels, gives us less mana Reservation and over the top, we can not be frozen anymore. What do you think about it?
ED can be a very good single target damage choice but the only problem is that I don't have enough mana to cast it...
Maybe Blight - CwC - ED?
I just tried some ED stuff on my own, I am not entirely sure if it works propery, tho the damage feels great right now. Maybe you check this possibility:
This setup looks very solid for clearing maps.
I'll test it if it's good for boss fight.

Hey.
I'm using some expensive stuff on standard (enlighten 4 etc.) so i have no problem with mana for ED (that allows me to get higher dps on it also).
But it is good way for You to solve mana issues, and contagion helps with clearing
Note, that contagion with profane bloom doesn't work very well.
My idea was to get an "lazy" build - on T11 i'm just running through packs and they explode. ED + Blight was used only on bosses or nemezis rares / uniques.
Btw, i've done some tests to maximize ED damage as boss killer with this setup:
and found that BotC feels just better for map clearing.
P.S.
I'm curious if life based marauder can be better for Death Aura or worse than occultist. He has 40% more damage, but have to use Abyssal Cry, and has no - chaos res for enemies in ascendancy.
Anyone tested it yet?
P.S. Sorry for my bad english, i hope my posts are understandable for You.
Edit: ignore gems in bow, i'm leveling those on weapon swap
Hey, thank you so much.
A friend of mine tells me that Pohx is building a Death's Oath Berserker right now.
He has been building some reliable end-game builds so far.
I guess this will work out fine in his hand (since I'm just a casual player who really loves this game :D)
And for single target DPS for Shaper or high tier maps for an ES build,
If anyone has some successful experiences, please share your information with us!
If I'm rich enough in Harbinger league, I'll test this as well.

-10% chaos resistance is very valuable for high tier boss fight.
But having some freedom in mana consumption can be very good too!
Thank you for this idea, I/we can test this idea and see if it can do the Shaper efficiently!
