First of all...my 3.9 update info is a LOT more than 4 sentences. I make use of spoilers to try and keep clutter to a minimum, try clicking on them :P
There are many iterations because...well there are many ways to play and gear etc...Flexibility. If I say "do exactly these specific things" then it restricts options.
How to explain this....
Basically there are several stages of the build and at any given point gear, gem, and passive options are more or less ideal than at other stages. My characters are not meant to be COPIED but used as reference points. I'm still on a relatively low budget on this build. So you're right, I don't have mana reserve right now because I don't need it to run
Aspect of the Spider
Herald of Ash
Discipline
But I'm only really using Aspect of the Spider because I have
So it's not worth trying to fit a 50% aura when I have to use aspect for the ES on hit.
But when I get the Watcher's Eye, I will drop the boots+Aspect. THEN I'll specc into the aura nodes I need and run Zealotry (or Anger).
There are options because there are so many ways to do it right or "good enough" and I like to let people think for themselves and choose what they themselves like; it's what gives this game its depth.
Anyways, I'll keep combing through and cleaning it up as I have been doing since I understand stuff changes. I only just got home after 5 days in the hospital so I'd like to actually get some play time in.
That said, I am not above answering questions because I know that this build can be a bit hard to grasp.
Hello,
Can you tell me what nodes you will choose when you will have Watcher's eye please?
I've go a Circle of Anguish. How can I have Ash and Anger?

im a bit frustrated cause i cant sustain the channeling. i run directly out of mana even with arcane surge and 20% dmg modifier to mana :(
someone got an idea?
Get an enduring mana flask (flask effect is not removed on full mana) and if further needed ring/amulet craft X% of damage taken gained as mana over 4 seconds when hit

I can sustain it with just 15% damage taken to mana and some regen from tree (Arcane Will).
This might be a dumb question as you have an empty socket in your chest and theoretically this is where the gem is supposed to be...but you ARE running Clarity to make use of the mod right??? I didn't see it in any of your links. ^^
Any ideas what to upgrade in regards to damage?
Guess I have to fiddle in pob with a CWC staff.
Auls w/ zealotry already?
Budget 30ex+
Aaaaaand here we go!
-Aul's for Zealotry! yep, good DPS boost just make sure resists are covered.
-Chest with Spell Crit. Offering Effect is great (especially since I don't see any extra ES recovery) but not as essential without the Leash. Get both if you can! You can even roll an extra curse on the same base for MOAR DEEPS! How cool is that?!
-Bottled Faith is like..20-30% more damage in a bottle. 8ex or so.
-CWC Staff will look more and more appealing as the rest of this gets stronger.
-Corrupted gloves with Spell Crit, Frenzy Charge, or Ele Weakness Curse.
-Awakened Controlled Destruction and Ele Focus Supports! May as well start in on those now.
-Jewels with Crit Multi + Life. Crit multi is obviously amazing for damage. get more sockets and GG jewels.
So many places to go!

hey Gryph, I was hoping to get your opinion on a few things.
-i'm not all that familiar with PoB, so I was wondering what is the minimum for a CWC staff to be a Martyr? You mention that you need 3 good mods, so would you have to Aetheric fossil craft it instead of alt+regal?
-I tend to find my ES jumps up and down a bit with Belt of Oblation, what exactly does Onslaught do that fixes this issue?

It bounces every time Bone+Flesh Offering proc. The idea was to use level 21 CWDT to maximize time in between that bounce (which I see you have already).
Onslaught....does nothing for this??? (Sounds like a reference to pre-corpse pact mechanics and needing more APS for better CWDT procs)
You can Alt+Regal or use Fossils. Fossils are more expensive but can, of course, yield better results. (20% More Spell Damage with Socketed Spells with CWC Support would be amazing)
As for what you need...depends on the person hahaha. But generally 3 good mods or something like +2-3 Fire Gems and CWC should suffice (plus multimodding)
