First of all thanks for that amazing build (at least for me even if my computer hate me really hard).

My stuff is actually show in the spoiler and I manage to kill Sirius awakened 7 (not deathless).
Spoiler





I also have an intuitive leap, an brutal restraint and a Watcher eye's Clarity (mana gain when hit) and anger


I feel that vs big bosses I have some lack of DPS.
Except for an Aul's and a bottle of faith what gear can I upgrade to gain some DPS (I'm working on a CwC staff)?

Thanks


Easy place to start is to buy a level 21 VD. Quality is AOE and kinda pointless so it shouldn't be too much $$$.

Replace unearth in CWDT with Culling Strike. Another Easy 10% more damage on everything.

I determined that flesh offering isn't really worth it overall. It's some extra movespeed, but the attack speed can really mess with your mana consumption. I recommend making the gloves 2 2L's and linking a level 10 Arcane Surge with flame Dash for 15% more spell damage.

Do these things and you'll be doing about 40% more damage overall. Give or take.

Why desecrate lvl 1 and not 7?


Because I was lazy. :D

Going to be getting the 21 VD here in a few minutes, the rings I am going to replace to fill out the chaos resist as I'm overcapped on all 3 elemental resistances and only at 27% chaos.

Some fights damage feels fine, others not so much.

Also not sure what route to go to get a bit less squishy.

Currently having to pick and choose auras as I go due to the helm corrupt, not cooperating, but the aspect is to nice to not use.

And still not 100% sure what to adjust to not need this mana potion, I 'thought' my APS was where it needed to be, but I think I'm still wrong lol.

It's basically Mana Pot, Clarity Watcher's Eye, or Mana mod on all 3 pieces.

I get by with a total of 14% (Fertile catalysts on my rings for 7% each)

AAAAAND some extra mana regen from boot enchant. Forces me to flame dash regularly (which is fine bc that's my source of Arcane Surge)

You have 12%.
Nice crafts everybody - both all the staffs and those chests.

Build is slowly starting to come together for me. Slowly building currency and getting gear upgrades and it's getting more and more fun.

Do have a question though - I'm using spectres for now as I'm not at the point of being able to use the lash. Not the biggest fan of the suggested spectres from the guide - they're ok but I feel like I don't notice them actually helping all that often. Anyone have any other suggestions on spectres to use? DPS/Utility/Defensive w.e - all suggestions welcome.


P.S. OP you're probably one of the most responsive people I've seen on a build guide. Props for that.

Edit: The Puppies are more noticeable than the prox shields I would say as they constantly taunt with rallying cry. With the shields it's hard to know that stuff is getting stopped...even though it is. Beyond that I don't know a ton about summons/specters so That's all I could tell ya.

So this is going to be a little bit odd, but can someone take a look at my character and tell me why i CAN sustain my mana usage?

I have no mana pot, no %damage taken gained as mana, I just swapped over my clarity watchers to a discipline es gained on hit watchers, and for some reason I'm still able to channel cyclone endlessly with no issues.

I'm sure i'm just missing something silly. Thanks in advance!
just hit 65 and put in all the required equips but I can't seem to sustain my hp or mana. I must be doing something wrong any tips?

First of all you should make your characters visible for us not to trying to guess, what's wrong.
As for tips for levelling -do at least 2 labs( offerings and es+mana regen) before equipping the helmet. Otherwise it won't function at all.
Make shure you have proper mana flask, get a "mind drinker" annointment, it should help a lot.
Got a fork where to invest my currency, guys. Well, I was looking for Aul with zealotry mod this morning. No results, but lots of them with discipline, and quite cheap. As far as I know, for us it works the same way - let's us run anger. So, is it worth changing my amulet with crit/crit multi onto Aul' Uprising with discipline?
