Hey, use mana Leech Anoints. There is an Anoint list in the Tree section.
I can recommend something if you have specific issues.

Had a question about leech. How much leech is enough? Currently have a Fuel the Fight for mana leech and a Drive the Destruction for life leech. Along with Soul Raker anointment, but would switching the anointment to something like Tenacity be better at this point since I have both life and mana leech covered by jewels?

Hey, you leeches are fine now. Anoint something else.

Hey 9v1d0, I recommend trying Phantasmal Earthshatter, the buff to fissure damage lets you take down bosses even faster, especially with annoying bosses like Al-Hezmin that dodge away from the spikes.

Hello, Aervanath. No, you lose so much damage with from the spikes.

How do you mitigate elemental and physical reflect with this build? Specifically asking because I went up against Atziri and just kept one-shotting myself. Last league I mainly did ED-Contagion so I never had to worry about that.

Hey, Aervanath.
I have not considered mitigating reflect damage. Just re-roll the map, use the reflect sextant and skip Atziri. If you still really want to do Atziri then you can maybe try to use a different slam skill gem that has very little AoE. Sunder or Leap slam are the first ones that come to mind.

Oh, for maps/contracts/blueprints I always re-roll the reflect mods. But occasionally you still run into reflect mobs (e.g. Elemental Thorns). I was considering running Atziri with Sibyl's Lament ring, or even x2. Would using a non-AoE skill work? She would still reflect the single-target damage anyway, right?

What do you think?

Yes, get a smaller AoE attack gem and don't hit Atziri copy with the mirror.

Yeah, I've been testing it and you're right. It's really only useful if you cannot hit them with the spikes at all anyway, which is rarely the case. Luckily I didn't sell my 20/20 normal Earthshatter and at least it will help me get the challenge. :)

how is this build in simulacrum? Seems the slow attack speed might be an issue

Also replica farruls seems decent for this yeah?

Hello, I love this BD so much and it was so cool. Thank you for your guide. And first sorry to my poor English because its not my native language.
I have a question about "shockwave support".
I saw some discussion said it can not work with Fist of war and Tawhoa, so in this BD the shockwave support is just used for mapping? Or its damage is also good?
Becasue I want to know if I should Buy LV21 (or just use LV20 ) shockwave support. Thank you.

I finished a simulacrum pretty easily, granted I had no idea what any of the bosses did so I died twice to Kosis partly because I didn't realize he spawned and killed me with some aoe and then again when I ran in with no endurance charges up. Slow attack speed didn't really matter, one slam will delete the entire screen as long as you remember to keep warcries up.

In my current gear, I cleared all the waves easily with tectonic/sand stance and weapon swapped to earthshatter/blood stance as soon as I realized a boss had spawned and killed them pretty easily. Can just ignore the HH, honestly it might have been faster if I had used Ryslatha's for Kosis since I had no HH buffs when I was fighting him. Kosis probably took like 15 seconds since I had to run around.
