Now that Fertile Catalyst buffs Mana Reservation on Circle of Nostalgia, is it worth getting 8% more HoAG reservation?

Got a link to this? I tried before the massive QoL patch hit and it didn't.

Edit: Nevermind, I see a quality one with 42% mana reduction for trade. Thanks very much for the tip, this is a big deal.

GAME CHANGER!!

Why don't we use cyclone again? If we switch to cyclone what changes we need to make? Sometimes I just wanna hold onto one button and relax

The main reason why not to use cyclone is it does not trigger the "Trigger socketed gems when you use a skill" each time cyclone uses mana. It only triggers it on the initial use of cyclone. This means you end up having to self-cast the curse, spirit offering, and desecrate if you don't find a different way to automate it.

If you want to use cyclone though, you would need to make sure you have a source of fire or lightning damage to attacks to trigger EE, a +1 to level of all spell gems melee weap with minion damage stuff, and swap ball lightning + faster casting out for cyclone + fortify.

Can someone explain why an item such as this:

Quality: +20%
Chance to Block: 22%
Energy Shield: 146
Item Level: 85
Requires Level 59, 141 Int
20% increased Spell Damage
32% increased Critical Strike Chance for Spells
+8 to maximum Energy Shield
+12 to maximum Mana
+1 to Level of all Physical Spell Skill Gems
+31% to Lightning Resistance
Recover 4% of Energy Shield when you Block
R3+67 to maximum Energy Shield

has like 2K less energy shield than a whakatutuki?

(trying to get that L31 HoAg is quite hard it seems, if not the shield then it's the amulet, and it seems like a big sacrifice on astramentis too)

Did one of your auras deactivate? That shield has less mana than whakatuki so if you were reserving your mana down to the minimum one of your big auras may have fallen off when you equipped the shield.

By quality-ing my ring to get 45% less mana reservation, I was able to spec out of the three points for 4% reduced mana reserve and grab 600 more ES as a result.

Also, going to be massive for those trying to fit Flesh and Stone or Discipline. Would a discipline setup be doable now without resorting to a Charisma anoint and/or second Circle of Nostalgia?
