About abyssal jewels:

Since the game counts your mines as dealing the crits and killing (thats why you have to use orb of storms when going elemental overload), the "+% damage if you've killed recently" only triggers from your secondary attack skills (but low level shield charge and vortex won't usually kill anything).

That mechanic also allows you to use "+30% crit chance/2% elemental resistance penetration if you haven't crit recently" and "+30% armour if you haven't killed recently".

So if you don't use an offensive cwdt, you can get much cheaper jewels since they're only in demand by a few classes.



Shaped/Elder items:

I spend a lot of time looking for gear, so I found out that there are elder gloves which have build-in faster attack support and +#% attack speed that leave you an additional gem slot. This gives you an extra gem slot for blood magic, making mind over matter a less risky choice.
Level 16 faster attack ones are very affordable, while level 20 support with additional +16% attack speed are very expensive but also a straight upgrade to the recommended gloves.

There are also shaper gloves which are supported by blind that are very usefull for the cwdt setup, especially if you use your final ascendancy points for the 4-point blind buff (50% increased duration and 6% reduced damage taken from blinded enemies).

Good Morning! I have not had a chance to read through all 86 pages of this post, but I have been leveling a FNM Sab based on your spec and it has been very fun! I am however, experiencing mana issues, especially trying to run both enfeeble and temporal chains as auras. Do you have any suggestions as to how to mitigate that problem? Thanks!
