GhazzyTV - Essence Drain & Contagion (or Bane/Soulrend) Trickster [SC/HC/Uber Elder/Shaper]

Sorry my english, I hope it is not wrong over you use in the new video slightly different Gems?
I managed to snag a Devouring Diadem your guide mentions some gem changes if this is available? What changes would those be if I may ask. I also assume that since Devouring Diadem provides Eldritch battery you're also able to re-allocate the points as well? What would be the recommended allocation? Thank you

This is what I come up with: Huge AOE Contagion with 100% movement speed. Next step is to craft daggers above as 2nd weapon set choice:



This is how Contagion AOE looks like:


A further iteration with 149% movement speed:

Hi i am new to the game.

Which Lab Enchantments should I looking for?
Hello! Started this build yesterday and I've gotten to level 49 right now. But I do have a few questions.

Before I go into it I want to say that I play on Ps4 so the economy is way different than PC. Stuff is much more expensive usually so the "cheap" items people are mentioning here are sometimes 4-6 exalts on Ps4.

1) Am I supposed to pop ED and then Bane? I am still confused about this..

2) There is no way I can get my hands on a +1 Tabula unless I get super lucky and make one myself. Any +1 is super expensive, what can I use instead?

3) What am I supposed to respec once I transition to MoM + EB? I got some decent ES gear laying around for when I get to level 60-65 so I can probably pick it at level 70 but I don't know which nodes I should skip or respec to get to EB + MoM.

4) I will most likely not get to very high level with this character since I am a new player, are there any nodes in the 'final skill tree' I should prioritize?

I had some more questions but I totally forgot what it was I hope it wasn't important lol. The build is super fun so far though! Thanks for the guide :)
Hey guys!

I have been playing with this build for a couple of leagues now, and this league i came up with something, which is a little different. At this point i am wondering if i made good choices and if some of the stuff i did is worth it or not.
here is my gear:


Things i wonder:
- Is it worth it to run all the auras/curses?
- Are the gloves worth it?
- Is a crafted dagger/wand with multi-mod and all the good stuff better?
- Is it worth to invest in more aoe for contaigon?

thanks for any input!

1. I assume you are playing the classic ed contagion. You put contagion then ED. the reason is ed is spread by contagion explosion. So you want the mob to have contagion as your ED can instakill. With enough cast speed, you can eventually cast ED and then contagion before your ED lands.

2. 5 link random rares or a regular tabula can bring you easily to yellow maps. No need to worry about getting +1 tabula. In fact, as your dps is very good already, a rare with high life is preferable over tabula.

3. Depends a lot on your playstyle and preference. Tankiest is actually hybrid life+es. Eb mom is also good if you wanna do more dmg as you can reserve most if not all of your mana. Since you dont have much currency, stick with basic hybrid as it is the cheapest.

4. My trickster this league is RIPOtherClasses, at lvl 59, trying to simulate fresh league as I wanna see how good ed contagion is in synthesis. You can look at it if u want.

- depends on what you need. I personally think for ED, temp chain is the preferred curse. With despair/enfeeble next depending if you play sc or hc.
- idk abt the gloves, didnt really play around with it. I would imagine the curse gloves to be better though, as it can save you 4 skill points for 2nd curse.

- best weapon for ed is definitely a multimod bow with soulstrike quiver. You can stack retarded amount of gem lvl that way. check poe.ninja
