Thoughts on reworked Guardian? Was able to keep dps above 13mil while dropping RF. More comfortable since we don't have to focus on regen now.

Did you have Righteous Decree before? (the mana nodes next to Templar start)

hmm, everything looks really good but I would be concerned about the mana reserve. I think 65 mana is barely on the borderline to make the build function. You would have to play test it at this level to see if it is viable.

Can you get -4 on the Magic Ring? If you can do that, you could lower clarity a couple of levels to free up some mana space...

I can do a test for you. I can make my current character have around 60 mana left. Let me run a couple of maps and report back.

Thanks! If can't get the -4 can also take the mana mastery for 10% less to lower clarity level.

ok this was no where near as bad as I expected after testing. Let me give you some information though since my build is not reliant on many mana usages that are not under my direct control.

Mana Unreserved: 53
Skills that use mana under my control: Incin, Flame Dash, Infernal Cry
Skills that use mana not under my control: WOC (via CWDT)

I ran two T11 maps that were well juiced (thanks Atlas!)

The only time I ran out of mana was when I heavy spammed Flame Dash. Other than that, when the time came to plant my feet and spam incin, I had no issues in either single target or being swarmed.

Note that I am a high user of Infernal Cry.

Check your build to see what mana usage is not under your control (hextouch, reckoning(?), things like that). The more that is not under control, the harder it will be to run at a low mana pool.

I am going to stick with this 53 sized pool for a while. If you don't hear back from me, that means I am having no issues with it.

================

as an unrelated question, if your new version does not use RF, do you need the vitality set up any more or are you keeping that for degen ground?
