[2.4] How to smash Heads. Extremely detailed guide about the Facebreaker gloves and builds!

Yes I messed up kompaniet (I have fixed the orginal post thanks)
The Multistrike gem extends the duration of the attack, this part I calculated wrong.

If infernal blow attacks 3.8 times per second.
(Including Bringer of Rain's Faster attacks and Acceleration (12%) passive near Leather and Steel)

We do 3 attacks, broken down to cost 24 mana per individual swing.
We need to include an additional 0.8 of a 4th swing in that 1 second.

72 divided by 3 attacks = 24 Mana per swing
.8 of a swing costs 19.2 mana

At 3.8 swings per second:

24+24+24+19.2
Infernal Blow cost per second = 91.2 mana

I wanted to sum this up for players attempting this build but there is no easy way of doing that because it depends on the gear.

With bor we need to regen 91,2 mana/sec to break even with the cost of the skill.
We can only leech back 12,5% of maximum mana/sec which is about 60 for most players (based on a 500 mana pool)
That leaves about 30 mana left we need to regenerate during the second somehow.

There's no point adding more mana leech than 2% though because we will reach the leech cap and it will be wasted.

What about Tempest Shield, is that something you would use with this build?

Well you have the mana for it.. but really 4% block = 2 passive skill points .. i don't think that it's worth the reserved mana.

Some more mana tests with my (bringer of rain)
On 4 link facebreaker Running single aura:
Reduce Mana, Hatred, Clarity and RedSocket(Cry/Curse/Determination)


Level 8-9 clarity with 1 passive spent on 7% reduced mana cost of skills.
Summary:
Cost 1 passive point.
Extra potion slot
2 rounds of infernal blow hitting no target(desync) before insufficient mana.


Level 7 Clarity with 2 passive spent for Mana Flows
Summary:
Cost 2 passive points
Extra potion slot
3 rounds of infernal blow hitting no target(desync) before insufficient mana.

It's good to have some extra mana or regen for these situations.
Someone there asked about tempest shield. It's not like it's very usefull or something but i just like how it looks :D
Wicked_Clown
Yeah I prefer spending the 2 passives for Mana flows myself.
My Leach + regen = 110 per second
I only need 91.2.

I can infernal blow 4 times into the air(without any micro pause) before running out with level 6 clarity.

This is only because I have +12% mana regen on my Ammy and +39 mana on my ring.
Without this i can only do 3 attacks before hitting a micro pause before the 4th.

And about the tempest shield.... i don't know DjPapaz .... but i really hate how it looks :D .... i guess i'm allergic to "shiny"
"I'm going to show you pain you never knew existed, you're going to see a whole new spectrum of pain!!!!! Like a RAINBOW!"
in the end that just a matter of taste :D
But you know since i recently bought
Spoiler
i stopped using tempest shield :D as Lioneye looks great by itself :D
Wicked_Clown
I actualy bought the first Lioneye in the Standard League back in the day .. it was 27 GCPs ( when 5 GCP = 1 Exalt ) .. it looked like a giant .. marble slab... damn that i don't have a screenshot.. and i can't find any .. anyway.. it was ugly
