ZiggyD's Etheral Knives Mana Shield Scion/Shadow Build Guide - Hardcore (Updated for 1.1)
" He has OK gear, but you can get much better stats and gear, both. I think I'm close to that limit, but I'm not quite there yet. I can still get a better shield, a wand (in theory), an amulet with Spell Damage / More Cast Speed, and Rings with Cast Speed. Also, a few gems need to reach 20. And more life on some of those would be nice, of course. Aura Setup: Hatred/Clarity/Haste/Discipline + AA.

i already tried it with a different wand with 100 spell damage and 15 cast speed and another shield that gives 70 spell damage i had 10k dps on EK with the same setup
but the wand was just given to me to see if EK is indeed useless and it can not be |

" It doesn't get much better than that I think. All of our dps gems are 20 quality. Can you tell me your dps without Empower? I'm rolling a 5L, and on Nemesis I'll never have a 6. Thanks Editado por útlima vez por Dakilula#0226 en 28 dic. 2013 10:29:55

All things being equal, without Empower I'm at about 13K, a bit more.

Hello, I was interested in your guide specifically the easter egg version with spectral throw, I haven't completely mapped it out perfectly so there may be flaws I'm only at lvl 36, and I've been following your guide roughly,so I can't really say how well it works out. I've been wanting to try my route out but was hoping for input on if the dmg would be better or worse then the EK route.
Here is my take on it, would really like your opinion on the path. Editado por útlima vez por VayneAtrius#0462 en 29 dic. 2013 18:32:28

Hey guys, wondering if someone can help me - so 2nd week in PoE and using this build and loving it.
However im trying to figure out exactly why in the CoDT setup - " You stop leveling gems and dont keep leveling, only reason i could think of is str limitation but was kinda assuming there another reason im missing? Thanks, Rose |
|
" Cast on damage taken cannot support gems which have higher level requirement that its own (codt). Also you dont wanna level CoDT too much cause it's gonna take more damage to proc on higher than on lower levels. |

" It's awesome you can run all of those Auras! I've improved my mana quite a bit recently (Up to 3200 base) but I still don't even have enough mana to run Grace/Hatred/Dicipline and still don't have 700+ free. I guess when I start to get some of the Next few +Aura Effect nodes my dicipline will scale up enough to give me that spare mana? So far just too much reserved. Was considering an alpha's howl but I might not need it if those +aura effect nodes fix the issue (Last 3 levels of reduced mana won't hurt either) I thought I'd be able to get to that 700 free by now but still seems like I'm not quite there yet.

So just curious why you went for Iron Reflexes when all your gear is armor/ES. Whats the point if your not using any evasion gear.
