Am I missing how we have enough to reserve Tempest Shield as a final aura?

I currently have all the correct HoP supports, the right reservation nodes, Conqueror's Efficiency, and 1 ring at 20% from fertile catalysts. The only thing I have left is to get my 2nd ring to 20%, but that won't net me enough to reserve TS. I'm at 255 unreserved and would need 405. Am I missing something?

It looks like you have Memory Vault equipped. You can't run Memory Vault unless you anoint Charisma.

I was able to get all four badboys running (Herald of Purity, Determination, Discipline, and Tempest Shield) with 57 remaining mana and running Memory Vault. It took some hunting for rings with the highest "increased mana reservation" that didn't already have their quality increased. After increasing both to 20%, I have both at 88% & 90% efficiency. That, plus a mana node I hadn't reached yet, "Reservation Efficiency", by CI, put me where I'm at now. Happy as a clam.

Trying to figure out how you got rings above 40% without quality. then I see you are in standard. maybe a bug from old rings or you used a different essence to increase them?
What essence did you use?

I switched to this after they day 1 nerfed Energy blade. I really enjoy the build and love the tankiness. However, I was wondering if you have addressed the mana issues with the CWDT on Holy Relic? CWDT's 250% modifier makes it nearly impossible to run with the low mana we end up with (34 mana for me with 46% and 39% mana res Circle of guilt), unless you run Holy Relic at super low lvl which seems pointless to me. The only thing I could come up with is to ditch CWDT, add Minion life and self cast it when I get the chance. Otherwise I am left trying to rebuy all of my jewels for mana res and bumping my other CoG up to 46% with catalysts as well, and that is not cheap. Even with that tho I don't think you could run a lvl 20 Holy Relic. Any Help would be nice. Other than that great job on the build!

I'm currently able to have it trigger. My rings are at 39% and 44%, the only difference with the PoB is that I'm using Ruthless instead of Empower, given how expensive it has become. I might make this replacement permanent, to be honest, it's a bit less dps overall, but it's way cheaper, and makes mana reservation easier (120% mana multiplier instead of 130%).

It's also possible to run Empower and a lvl 2 Enlighten in your aura setup, if you ditch Reckoning.

Is Reckoning only for trigerring Culling Strike support more often and generating spiders more easily ? Or am I missing something ?
