I have a bad feeling about overall viability without investing >20ex to comfortably do red maps, but ill do it nontheless, since my usual starter is dead for me after the totem nerf.

Levelling this now and single target is terrible.

On Act 4 (level 30), and trash is fine, but single target lacks big time. When does it pick up?

Dominus was a pain the ass to kill taking forever (I'm also on a 6L using tabula).

You have enough regen to utilize Blood Rage for easy Frenzy charges and a nice dps boost with no downside for mapping.

A stellar job as usual Enki.


I notice that on your skill tree that you do a couple of thinks slightly different than I would. Minor difference I think though.

1. You took the 30 strength and 30 dexterity nodes near elemental overload. I would suggest that you spend the two points on Practical Application near our start area. This will net you a gain of 5 more strengh, 5 more dexterity, and 40% chance to avoid interruption from stuns while casting over your way.

2. by the bottom jewel socket, you extend out to the start area with the last point giving you +5 intelligence and 20% mana regen. I might take the first node on the right fork from out start area to get +14 energy shield and 25% mana regen instead.

3. goint north from our start area you take two crit chance nodes. I might respect those to go through Lord of the Dead instead to get more minion life.

Thank you for doing this every patch. I may not comment much, and sometimes I stray off into my own thing, but, I have been reading this thread daily since page 85. Hard to believe that was a little over 5 years ago. I really appreciate your work and that of the regular contributors.

Edit: I notice in the Weapons section that you list "Wrath has #% increased Aura Effect C", but I don't see Wrath in the gem setup. Though I do see you list it in the Rings section when you discuss Essence worm.

Don't want to be a meanie here but as far as i see it the build has very average EHP(14k 50k 50k 50k 10k). I only had good experience with builds at ~80k-100k. How is this so Popular? With that low EHP i died 24/7 in Tier 10 Upwards.

EDIT:
Well i did check the old 3.12 build and it looked much better there:
20k 90k 60k 90k 30k
So the new version can be more rippy.

This build is less tankier compare with necro but much more dmg.
you cant compare mana stacking builds with other builds cause you got insane high life sustain and you got a insane big shield with arcane cloak.
when you calc your ehp recovery per sec and include arcane cloak into your EHP you have way more EHP then other builds.
Dont know your experience with archmage builds but i rarely die with archmage builds.
