You will get more with EK lvl 20. Also, improve the quality of FasterProjectiles and FasterCasting...It's really worth it.

EDIT: nvm solved my own problem

Nvm :)

At first i didnt trust shadow build mutch, now (even that im not even on cruel diff and on ambush) I got the gear good enough for this build, and downed Vaal Oversoul without isues :)
I hope my progress with this build will get just better and better ;)

Its awesome build, both for scion and shadow, definitely recommend it ;) :)

BTW: I also noticed there could be variations going more for meele play-style using dual/double strike and EK, but im not sure if you can get projectile speed, or spell power on sword/axes/maces; i also have fun using EK along with Glacial Cascade, it brought me to idea trying go for "freeze" variant of this build :)

Nope.

Hi ziggy, i wanna ask why u are putting a point in "Doom Cast" is it just becouse its only 1 pooint away and pretty nice, or is it really efficent for the build?

Levelling this build atm, level 60 easymode so far.

1 Question though, IS EK like Arc in the sense it has huge dps based more on the levels and not the links, eg would it be better to have it in a +1 to Gem level 4L (Like Geofri's) or have a 5/6L Chest with more links
