Guys, i really liked this build, my first witch char. I started playing poe recently, this is just my second league. Many things i don't understand yet, like what jewels or what modes the equipment must have, but firstly how to farm currency (if somebody have some guides to learn it, i'll appreciate).


This way, my char, now, is that. I have no much currency yet to buy WE with ES gain with while discipline, neither a piece of gloves with elemental weakness (really, i'd just get this items because dropped 5ex this league Oo), and i'm feel a little fragile. Many times i suffer HK in strong box, syndicates spamming, and bestiary monsters, sometimes.

In most time, i have really no problems, T11 normally it's easy, but sudden... BOOM.

When i know the danger, i try to be safe, using phase run+stibinite flask, sometimes works, sometimes... :/ Well, i just found 1 unique strong box, and i explode like 0.5s before open, and was in zana map with one chance, for example.

I'm doing something wrong? All observations are importants for me, i'm playing for 6 months and i feel understand like 5% of game :|

Thanks a lot!

Hello everyone,

I'm running into a problem when I try and run all the recommended auras and the spider aura. Even with a lvl 4 enlighten I'm left with only 41 mana reserved and only 39 mana regen/sec. Is there something that I have overlooked?

Thanks!

As Ocelot said, you can't run all 6 auras unless you have a 90% mana multiplier corruption or a mana reservation enchant for either wrath/arctic armour/herald of thunder on your helm. Until then just run 5. I would recommend ensuring spider is one of those, and instead not using arctic armor or herald of thunder.

I'm loving this build so far. I read about the reduced cooldown + increased attack speed items a few pages back and I've started gathering items I can use for that. However, I also read about the unnatural instinct / energy within stuff as well and I kinda want to be tankier... would that be the way to go? Could someone check out my items and give me a recommendation on how to be tankier? How can I attach images of my items that are in my stash?

My clearspeed seems fine and I'm clearing content ok. I just feel a bit squishy (can't do guardians with too many mods) and it seems like my recharge starts a bit slow / charges somewhat slowly compared to what I see in people's videos.

Hi, I got the core items for the build except the voidbringer with ele.weakness on them.Can I use something else in the meantime(got the non corrupted one)? The gloves with the curse (the only one) is almost 10ex and with one red socket with 3 blue instead of one green. Should I look for a rare or just buy the gloves in bulk since they are one alch and vaal them?

Ele weakness on gloves is not necessary. Can also go with enfeeble on gloves for more tankiness, or go for a curse-on-hit setup and just socket an ele weakness gem in your frenzy links.

Edit: or if you're feeling lucky vaal away ;)

For more tank you could always swap to vertex and shoot for lvl 21 gems, that should give an overall of +2 for determination and purity of elements to where you're at right now. It also looks like you're only able to run 5 auras atm (no relevant helm enchant), so you could either go for a +2 aura / aoe gem corrupt or a mana reservation corrupt, allowing you to do 5 auras with yet another +2 to determination and purity of elements, or be able to run all 6 auras.
Alternatively, you could bypass a vertex altogether and go for a high ES base helm with a solid enchant on it.

Your ring overall isnt bad (it has both auras and curse on it) but the +life implicit isnt doing too much for you, I would probably try and swap that for a ring with an ele resist implicit and +ES (still with both warlords and spider on it ofc).

You have a fair number of gem affixes that are wasted because theyre being used towards hitting your dex and str caps. I would honestly pick up the 30 point nodes for dex and/or str, which would then free up affixes for crit multi and ele resists. Look at it like this, if an affix on a gem (which we could replace with a 15%+ crit multi affix) is dedicated towards dex / str, the max you're getting is around a total of +16 per affix, by getting a +30 dex / str passive node, you're freeing up 2 affixes which we could now turn into +15%+ crit multis with a more crit multi focused jewel. That boost alone is the same as what you would get from a notable passive node, which is basically hanging directly off of your build path.

As to energy from within, I would say yes try and go for it if you want more tankiness and respec your tree, it gave me about +1k ES. For unnatural instinct, if you have the currency to burn its super worth it in my opinion (it gives the stats of 2.5 or so normal jewels), but it does not directly really help with tankiness in any way, its more just a dump truck's worth of offensive stats.
