Commando build advice

I’m a bit concerned that I don’t have the right devotions as I run out of energy and have to use potions in any prolonged fight.

Any advice appreciated.

Your issue is that you have very low energy regen per second. From Grimtools it looks as if you only regen 9/s. As such, once you’ve depleted your available pool, iirc(?) you’ll start to eliminate energy that is reserved for your buffs. But in any case, one grenado is ~100 energy and you’ll wait 10s to get that back without potions.

You have some buffs which take 1/2 your energy regen, either directly per second or indirectly by reducing your energy pool. Therefore, you need to get more energy per second or increase your pool. I see you have taken a devotion that helps, but you need more.

Ways to do this:

  1. components/devotions/items that provide energy regeneration per second or more base energy ie, Ectoplasm, caster chest/head/amulet, etc.
  2. put more into or find gear/devotions with spirit
  3. the devotion Bard’s Harp provides a fair boost to energy from both the proc and the nodes. This is a nice helper.
  4. items/devotions with energy leech, such as the Arcane spark component (guaranteed leech). Devotions help, but generally they have only %chance.

Edit: I see you have fair amount of energy absorb, which is good…but only if you are constantly spammed by energy spells in battle. You generally need adequate base regen and/or leech.
