Hi guys,

I'm following this build in Nemesis, I've made it up to 70 so far. I"m wondering why he is taking inner force over the two aura effect nodes at Sovereignty. Per point they are a better value ( 8% per point vs 7%) and they will buff your auras and therefore your entire group while Inner force only buffs effects on your own character.

Thanks

I'm still leveling up, hopefully reaching 70 tomorrow or the day after that and I'm already buying pieces of my gear, got a nice 5L chest, wand, and a crazy amulet.

I was wondering how much mana regen do we need on our gear in total?

Ziggy has 49 and 45 on 2 pieces (amulet and 1 ring), so I guess that's enough? Around 80-90 is needed?

I dont understand why i should use Discipline-Aura in this Build?!?
I have converted all my Energieshield to Mana.
So Discipline brings me Mana (normal ES but because i have the passiv "Convert ES in Mana", i get Mana from Discipline...
But at the same time, it uses 60% of my Mana as "reserved".
So i get some Mana, but at the same time i have 60% of my Mana reserved?!?
I dont understand why this is good!
Can pls explain somebody?

I'm lvl 67 right now (MERCILESS), the DPS of the EK is 1970, is this right? I need like 4 or 5 hits for mobs to die, shouldn't i be supposed to do more dmg?

My resists are capped, my gear, well, i need more projectile speed and mana regen, and i don't have a 5L chest, because it's insanely hard to acquire good gear in this game, trade chat only asks for 4-11 ex or 20-30 chaos, and mobs don't drop good stuff.

What do i need to do to have more dmg?

Ty.

Ty for the build ZiggyD, unfortunately, to acquire decent gear in this game you need to count with RNG crap and a ridiculous amount of grind, i won't waste my time with this horrible piece of shit anymore.

Bye.
