Oh boy, I think this build may have been killed :(

None of the masteries have generic %Increased Minion Damage, and our tree lost 38%...

Iron will could help to compensate the 38% loss ? (strength's damage bonus applies to all spell damage as well)

Briefly skimming over the tree data, it looks like we lost about 30% minion damage on the tree that we were taking, but we got 10% more minion area of effect, 16% minion life, 2% chance to deal double damage to compensate. We can do better damage with a bit of re-pathing most likely, but we likely need to allocate 3 more passive points than before to get back to the same damage. Minion Offence Masteries are all unfortunately underwhelming for us.

Block is a bit more available for us from passives, and the passives we already take all went up by 1% block each approximately. This makes us a bit more tanky which is always welcome. Staff Masteries are okay, we can get some recovery on block as well as increased defences.

The reservation changes combined with various masteries will likely end up meaning that we can reserve an additional 50% of auras. I'm planning to make this Determination in the build guide, but there are other options, for example Flesh and Stone + Aspect of the Spider for damage.

Sanctum of Thought + an Armour Mastery + Chest corruption means we can completely negate enemy critical multiplier on crits against us, which is huge survivability wise.

Life masteries are mostly underwhelming for us. Regenerating life while moving seems like the one mastery we want.

Along with the buff to awakened gems, I'm planning to keep the average damage around 600k while making us much tankier with more armour, better crit damage reduction, and better life recovery.

Yeah fair enough, end game probably will be fine, but I think the league start leveling will be a lot rougher now, early on we relied on those % Minion Damage nodes to carry before getting + Gem Level gear.
