Enki's Arc Witch Memorial Page

So Immortal Call requires 3L all red. What is a good slot to roll 3 linked reds on without losing ES?
Well I have a doubt, how do you guys farm maps?
I mean, I had some tier 2 and 3 maps and done them all with almost full clear (when I got to 30~ monsters remaining I'd stop). Never dropped a single map while farming so now I'm kinda stuck having no maps to farm (Bought all Zana's maps).
What can I do to stock up on maps?
Also, what should I do besides mapping?
Hi can someone give me some advice I could gladly link my bad gear etc if its recquired.

First thing is that Eldrich Battery Skill I don't get it I mean it makes you protect energy shield instead of life is this just to be able to cast spells without having mana pots?

I even still have one for no reason though. And why does this build need alot of energy shield if I can cast my spells with just a little energy shield? I have 613 ES and doing "fine" with that.

SO my CONCERN is that in a map called Fungal Hollow Map there is a boss called "Oak" or atleast its the oak boss you know what I mean that guy with the totems there.

Well I get one shot by his attacks and I don't wanna be that anymore so could someone give me some advice please I THINK its physical damage that like one shots me and I can't even escape / kite him either.

One more thing is that I have -48% chaos resistence wich is not good right? advice?.

THANKS before hand even and THANKS for reading :).

I can answer one of your questions.
This build needs alot of energy shield because later, you will take Mind Over Matter keystone. What this does is redirecting 30% of the damage you take to your Mana first, instead of your Energy Shield. The more Energy Shield you have, the more tanky you are.

As protestantfuckbucket said, you want to pick up MoM but only with enough ES to support yourself. Aim for 30-43% of your life as ES to allow your ES to absorb 30% damage taken. 43% will ensure the damage never ooms you. Ignore chaos res for now. It isn’t nearly as important as the other resistances. Also, if you are dying, then drop the Tabula Rasa in favor of a 5L with defenses.

Hello! I am using this build while I play with some friends in the standard league (we can't play together often). We were up to act 10 when the new league started and the build guide updated. My question is should I try changing my character with the passive skill reset to the updated version (and try find new gear etc) or is it too late and I should stay with the old version?

On another note, I am trying the new updated version on the new synthesis league by myself and am pretty excited to play. Thank you for the really great guide. It has really helped me and I love the detailed, levelling section.
I would go with the new build on your standard witch. If you just got to maps then you haven’t really invested in anything contrary to the new build. This build is designed to be easier to use early maps, and all the idiots bashing it on this forums aren’t even remotely following it correctly. Sure, there is room to change it to personal preference, but I only recommend that if you know what you’re doing. For someone new to the build, follow it exactly.

I've bought the Transcendent Mind, put it near Alchemist but without Zealot's Oath, sometimes I got slapped hard by a boss or a mob, I would have nothing to cast. I tried with Transcendent Mind + Zealot's Oath, it feels much more smoother.
is it answered anywhere, how to have all 3 aura active at the same time?

You need to get the passive nodes that reduce the reservation cost of aura skills: The one just above Necormatic Aegis (Leadership notable), the ones on the Templar side of the tree - Sovereignty notable.

You might need to take Herald of Thunder instead of Wrath until you get those.

You'll also need Eldritch Battery (EB) to have mana to cast spells. According to the guide, you'll pick up EB near the end of Act 3. You'll also want some form of Energy Shield leech in order to speed up ES regen. Heart of Thunder has some, and then there's the Energy Leech Support gem.
