Ok so love your idea of zealotry and can get my dps up to 80k with my build on icestorm tooltip in current gear....but I think my dps was fine at 68k so am going to ditch zealotry.

I want to make this as Tanky as possible so I am going to try and make the following auras work:

Hatred
Arctic armour (have 30% mana reserve reduction enchant on helm)
Flesh and stone
Aspect of the spider
Discipline

So far I have 2 X 1% mana reserve reduction implicits and level 4 enlighten. So will put high reserve ones in helm and ditch righteous fire.

Not sure where I can put the last aura unless I ditch a 7% int implicit ring for an unset ring and slap it in there.

What does everyone think of this? Is it silly?
Right now I can face tank so much content so feel with aspect of the spider + arctic armour added....will be amazing.

Definitely not dropping frost shield linked with immortal call and cwdt + frost bomb. It's amazing!

But we cyclone all the time, so you dont get damage reduction from arctic armor, unless you cyclne a bit then stand still and so on ... Im investing so much on dps bcs I want to delete endgame bosses like Sirius8, Aul, Uber elder etc, so i dont have to stay for too long dpsing them

In fact if you look, there are very few ways of getting MORE spell/cold/ele damage from somehwere, while there are many passives to get INCREASED damage. Thats why its worth reserving 50% mana for hatred and/or zealotry, and also multiplicative damagelike this scales much better with your base IC damage, so you get more int, and then MORE spell damage scalles even better

worth to invest an exlt into the theard of hope for ur setup?

If you have enough leach elsewhere and need point somewhere else than yes, it frees a lot of points to use

Doesn't arctic armor work if you cyclone on the spot? Thought that was counted as stationary?

You're probably right though...just wanted to make use of my helm enchant haha. Wish I had hatred enchant!

Ok so what else can we do?

I have theorycrafted this.....what do you think? :P

Hatred (15% helm enchant)
Zealotry
Discipline
LVL 4 enlighten with those 3

Aspect of the spider
Flesh and stone in a ring

30% mana reserve reduce passives on tree
2 X jewels with 1% reduced mana reserve implicit

BOOM we have 5 auras....we are tanky as fk and we do a shit tonne of dps all while being at 99% mana reserved.

On top of everything I just wrote....would we be better off ditching zealotry altogether and the 15% spelldamage it provides for a 4th large cluster using 2 points to get to cold to the core....which is more dps than zealotry on its own?

Thanks man...good to have someone to bounce ideas off.

I wonder why zealotry isn't mentioned on page 1 at all?

What if we got 4 large clusters with cold to the core instead of the 64 int? Only spending 3 points on each large other than the split personalities one??
