It's simply the mana pool. You need enough mana free after auras to throw your max mines + 1. So 19.

well its actually 40, because i dont have a covenant yet, but thats the point, i still have 110 unreserved mana. or if i deactivate other auras i have even more unreserved mana but it doesent let me spend ES for mines if grace is still on - i switch off grace and everything is working.

19 Mines, not 19 mana :D

If your cost per mine is 20 for example, then 20 x 19 = 380 free mana.

ah well that makes sence - so you need about 400 unreserved mana with covenant? and about double the amount for other body armours?

the thing i still doesnt get is, why i can spend energyshield for it without active grace (even if my mana is gone) but with active grace it doesnt let me spend any energy shield after my mana is gone. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Because on top of PAYING MANA, you also RESERVE MANA.

EB only replaces the first part with ES.

Sup. A question: when is a good time to transition to mines? After a curse on hit gear? After a Profane Proxy? After both?

Probably after a Curse on Hit ring/gloves. You can buy the 1c unique axe if you wanna do it VERY early, but I'd wait for at least semi-usable gear.

Poisonous Concoction doesn't really need gear, after all.

I am playing this build for the first time and I decided also to give SSF a shot as well (being encouraged by level 100 in SSF ;-)

Can I get curse on hit rings everywhere or just in delve?
Curse on hit gloves are only available as corrupted gloves or in the temple, right?

As long as I don't have the ring/gloves I proceed with PC, still going fine.

Rings with CoH are Elderslayer Influence (various types, Hunter is Despair) or Delve with Elemental/Phys/Chaos nodes.

Gloves are just corrupted.

There's also other ways, like a unique axe or a Hunter Wand, etc.

Good luck, grind away and you'll get there!

Nice build,Wanna see a items crafting video,such as danger,glove,amulet,etc

How do we feel about pathing up to the Witch jewel socket with a Elegant Hubris for the Supreme Ostentation keystone with a 80% shock avoidance node immediately next to it in the Instability node? For ~8 points and a jewel socket elsewhere, we can get Stormshroud, become ailment immune (with an additional 20% shock avoid, easy to get on abyss jewel), and require no attributes so all travel nodes can get converted to tattoos. We also save up on itemization since we don't need attribute gear.

I've been running the numbers on PoB and they seem positive but it's so hard to judge overall build-wide cost effectiveness. I would love some thoughts on the matter!
