[3.1] CWS CI 13k+ ES/2.5k ES regen/700es on block

Welcome Exiles to my 3.1 version of the Cast when Stunned build

I decided to try this build due to the new Shaper items you can obtain, especially focusing on the Amulet & Shield variants which I think significantly help this build in terms of defence. Considering ES got a nerf and it's now harder to obtain significant amounts of ES but we can still achieve a decent amount even with these changes.

- Slow
- Can be built cheap but becomes harder to invest in to later on

My current gear

Now my gear is nowhere near perfect and I'm still trying for upgrades, mainly the rings/amulet/chest as they can be much better but for now it will do. The majority of the gear is on the cheaper side bar my shield which I bought for 12ex but I haven't seen any more on the market so either no-one is selling theirs or they are extremely limited, the shield allows me to drop around 5 points on the tree to invest elsewhere.

This is my current tree I am using, it is a level 95 tree and it also doesn't include the Leadership/Influence nodes which you will need to pick up if you don't have a shield with 15% reduced mana reservation.

Honestly, level as something else then respec into this, I guess ideally you'd aim for getting the damage nodes for whichever method you plan on leveling by then respecing those nodes later on
