I just figured out something to greatly boost DPS for those using CDR enchantment, Dash + Second Wind, and Herald of Ash + Blood Magic (like I did) in the Harvest league. It revolves mainly around being able to fit Arcane Surge into setup, so if you were using Flame Dash instead, you probably had it linked already. Dash only shines while supported by Second Wind, so if you were using Flame Dash you won't get this DPS boost. But you could still do it, as it will give you better mobility (Dash + Second Wind is better than Flame Dash, but you could also use the socket we're about to free for something else)



If you're like me, you can use one of the new medium cluster notables called Self-Control. It reduces Discipline mana reservation by 30%. It will free some life - funnily, it's just enough to link Desecrate + Spell Cascade + Spellslinger with Blood Magic Support.

By doing so you will also free mana that can be used to maintain Herald of Ash without problem, so you can remove Blood Magic Support from Herald of Ash and instead use that socket to link Dash + Second Wind with Arcane Surge. As I said, if you were using Flame Dash instead of Dash, you probably already had it linked with Arcane Surge, but following the above steps should make you able to switch to Dash + Second Wind, which in my opinion is far superior and much smoother than plain Flame Dash.

But wait, there's more. By doing so WE DON'T EVEN NEED REDUCED MANA RESERVATION RINGS!

How cool is that, huh? :)

Are you sure? I see juicy 25% es and 15% life, meaning 40% es if you place the jewel right where it is, according to the build...
