Tailwind is a Speed Modifier, get open prefix hunter 75 boots and go to town.

Update: Adding Ball Lightning instead of the Stone Golem does make a difference in sustain. It doesn't make up for stun immunity but it helps.

Sirus is a huge pain in the ass without stun immunity, used a few portals.

I just finished leveling (smoothest level build I've ever followed tbh), and am not sure where to go.

I have ~6 exalt to work with (second build of league), so I'm not sure if I should skip the life-based CoC version and go straight to the ES version?

Is there a certain recommended level to be before switching to ES CoC?

Obviously 6 ex isn't enough for the entire end-game build, but I saw Void_Wanderer (p. 58) mention his build only costed 13c for a budget version of the CoC HP that was running T16 maps, so I would assume 6 ex is enough. My main concern is if I should level more before switching.

Thanks for the build guide!

Hi, thx for build

this is my starter this league, spellsinger is very fast to leveling with no stuff.

the life version is very budget too.
i spend 50c for all my stuff, and i start red maps, no problem for the moment.

ES stuff seen very expensive...

@livejamie, could you explain your craft in more detail? I want to earn some exalts easily ... with the inflation of exalt this season, my methods to earn money fall apart ...


thank you

Heres a good guide to tailwind and stuff.
Small update; the 80% Boot Enchant is largely useless for us I think.

The situations where it really matters are situations where we haven't killed recently and we get caught in a bad situation and die. It requires us to be way more careful than before. Not necessarily a bad thing, just a difference in playstyle. You can't just sit on the garden plot and wait for the monsters to come, you have to wait on the outside edge and ease your way in.

Today I am trying respeccing to Lucidity and anointing Unpredictable Offensive.

This is annoying because it's 3 skill points and requires me finding a slower weapon, but I will report in later and let everybody know how much of a difference it makes.

This also requires dropping Inspiration for Awakened Lightning Penetration because our Cyclone doesn't cost any mana with Lucidity allocated.

I'd rather try this before doing something drastic like going LL or Trickster.

I would imagine LL the version to go because of Presence of Chayula (immune to stun) and pain atonement. CI is a lot more fun with the new choir of storm amu though....but yea stun is a PAIN.

I might switch around late game when I have one of those atk crit spell crit armours, but for now, LL it is...
I'm happy to report that allocating Lucidity and anointing Unpredictable Offensive has been a success, build feels like before the nerf and I can spin on anything. Haven't had any issues with bosses or garden mobs today. Can recommend.

I also finished crafting on my belt today, the garden makes crafting so easy this league.

Current Setup


Lots of upgrades left.

With the Unwavering Stance changing location coming closer to us and Glancing Blows being just a few points away, I feel like they might be worth the point investment. Taking the str travel nodes also opens up more room on our gear.
Would of course need to drop few points worth of damage or energy shield, but there are no perfect solutions so it is what it is.
