I have been able to acquire an everlasting gaze but only with a 20% es from mana roll. Is it still advised to be used? Currently, my stats are a little bit worse with gaze than with my regular rare +2 all spell skill amu: 1,1k life, 1,1k es, 1,9k mana. 4k Spark tool tips DPS unbuffed.

I also own Kitokos but I die much more often with it since the stun seems to build much slower than the three dragons frost. Additionally, the -% fast cast really hurts my dps.

I am currently thinking of selling the amu and use the currency to upgrade my other gear because it is not very good.

Do you have any insights on this?

25+% on Gaze is preferable because the difference can be huge but it is very expensive. I still think 20% is better than not using it. You should try to get 2x Breach ring with huge mana roll and use +50% mana quality to increase it to 200+ mana on each ring at least (240+ preferable) and get mana regen there too. You can see on my rings how much mana they give and it will boost your ES and dmg a LOT.

I switched to Kitoko and Gaze + CI + EB + MoM around lvl 85 I think. I was using The Three Dragons till then and was slowly preparing the gear to make the switch.

Here is my gear and stats + skills. It might help you with gearing (what stats on which items to look for). My Skill tree is basically the same as DeerFart posted here earlier.

Also one tip that made my life so much easier: If you are close to dying or you know you are gonna die (ES gone, you are CCed/stun locked and mana is going down fast) just press ESC and Exit game. ESC will pause your game and if you quit the game from there, you will not die, you won't lose map and you can just return to map if you have any remaining portals and not lose anything. I was close to dying twice in past 3 days (both times in breach) and this saved me both times.


Thanks, very helpful!
I am struggling to deal damage with this build at all in a1 cruel. I have followed the guide to a T and even got all 8 ascendancy points but I deal no damage in hunting grounds.

Is there a general stat priority this build? Mostly for jewels.

I'm using 15% spell dmg + 20% ES on my jewels and some crit for spells if possible. I got 5 of those. Also any Int is good since we have node that increases our dmg based on the amount of int.


%mana on kill is nice also.

Dont sleep on Ingenuity - especially those with good breach rings. Insane.
New wand also.

Question, in your link, you are using two arcane tempo gems?

How do I equip two of the same support gem?

You can't have 2 of the same support gems. Probably just 2 gems with same icon. Below are my skills.

Sigil of power - magnified effect - ingenuity - persistence - energy barrier

spark - pierce - lightning penetration - arcane tempo - acceleration - inspiration

orb of storms - lightning exposure - font of mana - conduction - strip away - (I plan to use overabundance as last one)


archmage - lightning mastery

conductivity - heightened curse - focused curse - hex bloom

That's pretty awesome belt. Unfortunatelly I got almost no resists on rings and my belt has big chunk of my overall ressists so I can't swap unless I change my rings :/
