usually I slap arcane spark on almost all builds and call it a day, never had any energy issues since then. As well diamond on head.
There was even a time when I used ectoplasm on rings but that is just not the best way I suppose to handle energy issue crysis, even more so that blood crystal/topaz or even mark of illusion and maybe forzen hearts are out there. ;D
EoR doesnāt benefit from Spark well because itās scaled down by itās low weapon damage proportionally.
Actually while leveling with my beginner Phys EoR I barely felt adding one. Same with DEE that also has low %WD.
It helps when you move with movement skills like Blitz and Vire into enemies a lot because they scale Spark fully.
@hmdai You could also test if -10% Energy cost from Seal of Annihilation is better than Spark on your build.
I find that if fighting normal mobs, the energy keeps draining, with either arcane spark or seal of annihilation. If fighting enemies or boss with high hp, he can somehow able to leech back the energy.
Though switching from spark to annihilation would drop the OA but end up with higher EoR damage due to higher attack speed. I have to spent the 2 unused attribute pounts to cunning to keep him barely reach 3k OA
Donāt forget Seal of Annihilation has a OA / DA reducting proc. I sometimes put points into Cunning on Fire builds for more OA.
WDYM by ākeeps drainingā. It sounds as if you wanted it at max the whole time
Iād only consider Energy management bad if SR 75 or 65 runs were not sustainable (with Energy pot used just before Energy runs out).
You can send me your save if youād like for me to check out how this Energy feels in comparison to other characters I play.
When I am still going S&B and using Mark of the Shadiw Queen, his energy leech and regen can sustain the cost of EoR and keep the energy level steady.
After I have switched to dual-wield, I see the energy is draining, that is why I have got the question. May be the lost of 2.4% energy and the increase in EoR skill lvl (thus increase in enery usage), lead to that?
Iām just saying itās normal (if I understand correctly) and itās not a problem that needs to be fixed.
Increasing attack speed and EoR level both increase Energy usage.
I think the reason for that is simple - if you got dual dagger instead S&B u get tons of bigger attack speed which means u gonna spin faster, therefore bigger mana cost.
titanquestFan is right tho, itās nothing big to worry about unless u get drained in first 5 seconds of just using Eye of Reckoning skill itself.
EDIT: If you really think u have difficulties with energy, how about getting suffix either on pants or boots or both even with this ā
I have completed the final quest to get the last skill point and finished FG. Now just going for some totem and MI run and prepare for the next character (I donāt think he is tanky enough to fight celestial bosses). May be bliz warlord or Markovian warlord (I have completed the set during totem farm and transmute).
Ravager / Crate should be fine (obviously you have to dodge Sunders). You can always back of for a bit when both of your heals and Ghoul are on cooldown. And you could use potions including ADCTH ones. Crate Iām not sure as it also kinda requires good damage and I donāt know how much this one has as Iām not very experienced with EoR.
I have tuned him up a bit, change the component on helm and weapons to boost up his attack speed and damage a bit and sacrifice his phy resist. How does he look?
EDIT: Oh, I have forgotten that his piercing resist comes from seal of might, need to tune up againš¤¦š½āāļø
Just revert the components on the weapon back to seal of might (though the phy resist will be gone in the future patch) and reallocate some attributes points to cunning and spirit
Too late! He hates Barrowholm so much that he has already cleansed the whole village
I have switched to Flames of Wrath and changed his Physique and Cunning a bit
Thank you for your suggestion . I have stumbled upon that guide and mad_leeās one before. I may build one in the future. My current char will be more concentrated on aura and EoR at the moment, though.
I have changed some of his devotion to further boost his OA and got one more proc for healing at cost of a bit attack speed. I will try and see if it works for him.
