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

Why Blight and not Contagion in the Vertex? Is that just for bossing?

I feel like when mapping the AoE and mana cost reduction for Contagion would be nicer.

Yes, this is the setup for Uber Elder and swapping blight with contagion for mapping is correct, but I don't ever have mana issues when running maps. I'll edit to include my pastebin in my above post as well.

Thanks, will check it out. Was debating on getting a Cane since it looks strong and my DPS feels low right now in reds.

Hi guys, Im currently struggling on where to go next with my gear. Im in the process of getting boots but not sure if I wanna go with rare boots or the atziri ones. What do you guys suggest after the boots?

Uhhh where is Essence Drain at? Needs to be put in your six link.

How strong defense wise anyone that has taken the build to shaper or guardians is taking Acrobatics and Phase Acrobatics is it truly worth it?
I am running MoM with Eldrich Battery.

Could you explain more on how you did to off color your queen of the forest?
You made at least 3b, then spam 3-4 sockets until you get 3b and 1r? What's the next step? Craft 6 sockets on it or?

you either do it with jewlers if you have a lot

like 2socket the chest

2 blue the 2 socket

3 socket it

is the third a blue or red?

no , then 2 socket it again , then repeat till the 3rd socket is blue or red

then you can 4 socket and hope for your final off colour

if you get green > 3 socket it again then 4 socket it again till you get the 4th socket whatever colour you need

once you have 4 off colours you need to 6 socket it , the final 2 should be green (this is all done in the bench)

basic video on the process

now what i actually did was 3 blue for 120 chromes , so i had a 3b 3g chest


then i used vorici 1-2 white craft and took a gamble one of the green would go white

only got 1 white socket but it landed on one of the greens

--

you can also just have a search running sometimes people list cheap off colour chests, i got my 5l 3b 2g for 40c just because i had a search running for it

-

the thing took forever to link , i just wore the 5l while i did all this , 5l is fine for the build
