and i have to remind you that ive only worked on this build for several hours. this might not be the final version.
1.INTRO
the core passive of this build is nec exclusive [Harbringer of Souls].
% attack dmg converted to health is a magic modifier
it will apply to any spell that contains % weapon dmg.
so for the only active ability [Callidlor’s Tempest]
360 degree arc high dmg aoe with NO COOLDOWN
non-stop dps means non-stop healing.
with the pure aether weapon
to maximum the benefits it will get from % aether dmg
that’s the basic mechanic of this build. gear and other spells are all built around it.
2.GEAR
weapon: temporal arcblade (pure aether dmg 2h greatsword)
head/shoulder/chest/amulet: Iskandra’s Unity
gloves: athereach
pants: wrathborne legwraps
boots: empowered stonewrought groundbreakers
belt: sash of the immortal sage
ring1: lifegiver signet
ring2: screams of the aether
medal: mark of the aethema
relic: agrivix’s malice
basically it’s just tons of % aether dmg with decent resists. only the weapon has no other choice. the lifegiver ring there provides 7% extra life leech is also pretty good, but if u think there’re better options you can always build ur own gear set. nothing is fixed except the 2h sword.

6.TIPS
this build is pretty powerful, and lazy. 12k hp doesnt seem to be a problem with perm 25% dmg absorption.
basically 50% dmg is dealt by Callidlor’s Tempest and the other half is of other triggering spells. in less stressful area, ur passives and triggering spells will kill ur enemies even before u get close.
the only problem is mana. Callidlor’s Tempest is a costy spell. Iskandra’s elemental exchange will provide enough mana leech u when ur in crowd. but for those 1v1 situations, things could get really nasty. life leech rate is low against single target and IEE wont help too much. u can always do hit & run. but it makes this build look really stupid.
i havent come up with a perfect solution yet.
so this build is pretty bad against single powerful enemy atm. otherwise, it really nice.
