[3.7] SC/HC - ED/Blight Trickster - Up to 10k eHP, Layered Defense, 3m DPS
|
As Trickster you NEED Zealot's Oath. If you feel you can't spare the points yet, at least get a Sorrow of the Divine unique flask. Once you have ZO, ED Trickster gets extremely tanky in breaches.
@mapa, I am going to assume you are talking about what gems I use to reserve life to go LL. I use Blood Magic > Discipline > Clarity. Level Clarity as high as your HP pool will allow. | |

Im lvl 62 at the moment but at lvl 74 i should have the mandatory nodes after that i guess its up to me what i want either more damage or es

Do you have a tree for occultist?
| |
|
the Occultist is effectively the same as the Trickster tree. Will update the passive tree section tomorrow due to a lot of questions about it.
| |
|
So im playing CI Occultist, and I have the boot enchant ".5% of damage leeched as life and mana if you've killed recently". I was hoping this would fix my mana issue, but it doesnt gain any mana from that effect, I assume because all the ed damage is degen...? Am I doing it wrong or something? I've seen some posts mentioning that this enchant fixed their mana issues but I cant seem to get it to work.
Thanks for any input! | |
" i was expecting the same thing when i farmed that enchant yesterday after buying brinerot whalers. i think the initial hit of ED does leech mana but its a small difference. | |
" Can someone confirm this? I've also been farming uber lab with hope to get the leech on boots! ;_; Meanwhile I still run around with a mana flask and 110% mana regen on my items. |

Yes, the ED will only leech from the initial hit of the skill. Abyssal Cry on the other hand deals "pretty good" initial damage, and functions as a nice way to refill the mana.
As CI, you will have to use decay as long as you go for dual curse + discipline setup. This means you can cast ED a lot less than in a poison setup and don't rely as heavily on being able to chain cast. On the ED character I had in Breach league I stuck with CI until I died, and never felt the need to use a mana flask on top of my leech enchant + mana regen on gear (had % regen on a ring and shield). If you still feel the CI version is too starved on mana, you should try to push for LL or grab the sovereignty aura cluster. EDIT: checked out the actual gear I had. Got a decay wand with +4 mana on kill at the end, just used a ring with % mana regen then. Was just fine on bosses as well with just 1 regen item on a 6L Last edited by Nedieth on Mar 20, 2017, 9:22:54 AM

" Ok, thanks for the answer OP! |

hey guys I'm not sure what upgrade to aim for next. Is witchfire brew worth grabbing without a tri curse setup? 70% increased dot seems good and im not using any unique flasks atm.
I can still run dual blasphemy and discipline without heretics veil. Maybe i should save up for skin of the loyal since i dont have a 6L. Although the right colors seems very expensive. I havent seen one on poe trade. also, what are some baseline stats for uber lab? my gear is mediocre but i have 10k es and 16k ed dot with pierce gem. Im afraid my damage will be too low for uber lab so i havent done it yet. should i get quality gems first? 20/20 gems is probably my biggest upgrade but also the hardest to reasonably get. any tips or input is appreciated. :) |
